For those that missed it, the link to my CNN interview this morning is below.

I'm a night owl. Getting up at 5:20 AM is NOT my cup of tea and I definitely look sleepy in that interview! ;-)

The interview was done at the local Public Television station (WCVE) via a link to CNN. During the interview you basically stare at a big, black eye that is a camera lens and have no view of the CNN host. You hear the host through an earbud and there is a delay from when the host finishes talking on the screen to when you hear the last part of the question and can respond.

The host, as I think was appropriate, played the devil's advocate for the other side to provide some balance to the interview.

Hopefully the next time I'm on CNN it will be at a more reasonable time, like 1 AM! ;-)

As a VCU student, there are times when I have been followed, and I have had friends robbed at gunpoint. Yes, it's Un common, but my major absolutely requires late nights. Though I avoid traveling alone, I do live about a mile from campus, and, if. Had a CHP, ( I view OC as an invitation for an aggressor to engage, not a deterrent) I would absolutely carry if VCU allowed it.
