Zach hits the big time Friday when he will appear on Good Morning America. Sadly, no miles though as they'll be filming from our house.

Wow! Now we'll get to see all those Australian kitchen fixtures (or was it New Zealand)!

Seriously, great stuff - way to go Zach.

Good Morning America just called and has to postpone tomorrow morning's interview. They're supposed to call back this afternoon to resked. Will update then.

Great job Zach, but now I have a question for you...

Where will I now find a suitable supplement for maggots in my daily diet?

Thanks for the comments everyone. Inside Edition is coming to interview me on Monday. I still don't know a new date on GMA.

It's a gross, but fun book.

I remember a 20/20 or Dateline story a few years ago about impure water in many dentists' offices! When I asked my dentist, he dissed it as sensationalistic journalism.
As for the sailboat connection, Zach, now I know why sinks in some airline restrooms are marked 'Do Not Drink.'
Served by an FA, you say?!

Play the travel game 3 vacations into the future!
