\"michelle, \"barry,<\/p>\n
Thank you for accepting our challenge and visiting our new blog!<\/strong><\/em> It is our blogging practice to disclose more details of our lives than is ever necessary. In that fashion, we have designed this contest. We will begin by sharing this story.  Just days ago, Michelle was on an over-the-phone radio interview with Faith Radio in Montgomery, Alabama, to advertise an upcoming event. Radio interviews make her feverishly nervous anyhow, so that only primed the pump for what was to come. As the interview progressed, the announcer and event host kept repeating the date. "January 13th, January 13th." <\/strong>After hearing that date a few times, Michelle took a mental trip to her calendar and realized that she had booked her plane ticket for the wrong date–a week too late. She began to hyperventilate. She has no recollection of answering any more questions. Apparently the interview wrapped up and Michelle brought the problem to the host's attention. Michelle, being the administrative hub of our operation, was particularly traumatized. So, we have decided to capitalize on her crisis and turn it into a contest. Here we have the MP3 of the interview<\/a>. Please listen to it carefully. If you can pinpoint what you think is the precise moment when Michelle became aware of her error, if you can sense the drama queen donning her crown, if you can hear her suck in air and start fanning herself, then mark that spot down and enter this contest.<\/div>\n

We are happy to announce that lots of awesome folks forgave Michelle for her mistake and helped her realign the stars to fix it. She went to Alabama with an appropriate ticket and the drama has subsided. Barry watched kids for five days (with Fosburg assistance) and deserves kudos.
