Thanks to Josh, Kristi and other happy employees at Cracker Barrel; Tom and staff at Colonial Heights Presbyterian Church; Jason and Lee Whitson; the massive support network it takes to put on an FBS-level college football game — police, ticket takers, announcers, ushers, janitorial staff, airports, coastal waterway security, T-shirt vendors, massage therapists, food preparers, IT personnel, late-night fast food drive-thru workers…

Some people prefer not to mention where they’ve been — the restaurants and retail establishments — because they assume no one wants to know.

However much I agree that we aren’t interested in knowing the minute details of a person’s day, regardless of the person’s fame/infamy, how many of us like to see our names in print?

People to thank for their services: Paul at Surin Thai Restaurant; Drew, Cynthi and Kay at Publix; Garrett at Cracker Barrel; the backdock receivers at Goodwill Industries; ticket issuers at the Living Christmas Tree; UAH men’s basketball players who beat a Division I school’s basketball team for the first time in school history; UPS package deliverers; more to follow.
