Pap at the National Press Club!

This is the most exciting news I've heard in a long time: Pap is going to be speaking about Internet safety at the National Press Club in Washington D.C. tomorrow! Woo hoo! He'll be speaking at a Department of Justice-sponsored "cyberbullying awareness" press conference beginning at 8:00 a.m.

As if that's not cool enough, also on the panel is Steve Largent, former Seattle Seahawks wide receiver (and NFL Hall of Famer) who now is president and CEO of a telecommunications industry trade group. (Oh yeah, I almost forgot: in between those gigs he served as a U.S. Representative from Oklahoma).

Finally, the press conference has one more scheduled attendee that will just about make your head explode: McGruff the Crime Dog! I swear I am not making this up.

We are so proud of you, Pap, and expect a full report (with photos!) when you return!

P.S. Hopefully Pap will get to talk about the eagerly-anticipated new book he and Patch have co-authored about cyberbullying.

P.P.S. Doesn't this story have the makings for a terrific joke?

"Pap, Steve Largent, and McGruff the Crime Dog walk into a bar...."

P.P.P.S. During your remarks tomorrow, Pap, I would advise you against making any jokes about how West Virginians are inbreds...
