FYI, here's a brief list of things that I did not help with when I was an undergraduate at N.C. State:

The Wolfpack's winning of the 1983 NCAA Championship
NCSU Women's Basketball Coach Kay Yow's gold medal win at the Olympics
Ronald Reagan's re-election campaign
Jesse Helms' re-election campaign
Any of the space shuttle launches
Whistle-blowing in the tobacco industry
The annual shrimp and oyster harvests, and . . .   

Last but not least, I did not help in any way with the filming of the movie "Bull Durham."  I begged to be Susan Sarandon's personal assistant, begged and stalked.  But all I got to do was drink beer in Mitch's Tavern on Hillsborough Street in the hopes of being an extra in the Kevin Costner/Tim Robbins bar fight scene.  But was I an extra?  Did I get my 15 seconds of fame?  Was my face ever up on the big screen?  Noooooo!  Life is so unfair.

(I wrote that line for Bruce Springsteen, you know, but he's never given me credit.  Bastard!)
