My Humbling Two Minutes and Thirty-two Seconds with Ellen in April 2009

There’s nothing quite like concluding one’s 15 minutes of fame with a PSA on ELLEN letting all of America know you’ve lost your house and your job but gained access to a senior living community where you’re forced to live with your teddy bear collecting mother playing shuffleboard and watching neighbors die… 

Thank you Ellen DeGeneres for this memorable moment of 2009 and for the $1,000 that helped me get back on my feet.  Well, it helped me get back on a foot, err, a pinkie toe…but I did eventually move out of Leisure World (everyone in there is ‘dying’ to do just that!).  I remain grateful for these two minutes and thirty-two seconds (coincidentally 32 is my fav #)…
