Hi Tavis, just wanted to stop right now and send you your birthday greetings. I know that it is a couple of days away, but I have quite a few this month to try to keep up with. I met you a couple of times at ABC Radio and at the Black Images Books store during one of your signings. It was a pleasure to meet and to be in your presence and it left me more inspired to take action on something. So I sued ABC Radio for discrimination and of course lost my job. But I stood up against their oppression and racism in radio. You see, I was the 24 hour Music Format manager and I gain a lot of insight from all of the sides of radio. When I say ALL sides, I mean just that. I worked in an office that was 1 door down from Tom Joyner's Office on the 3rd floor of the building, That was an exciting time for me. I met some great radio personnel and artists who came to display their talents at ABC.

But I was the manager on 9/11/2001, when the towers were blown down also. I have not recovered from that day to this one. The tragedy still plays out in my life today as with so many others and we are all the collateral damage that tends to be ignored. Most of the people in the ABC building that day was from New York, you know, so there was so much chaos and certainly feelings of hopelessness and helplessness. all I could do was pray and communicate that to everyone. I will never forget all of the calls from the many radio station personnel that were not part of the ABC Radio Networks, asking permission to broadcast the ABC News. Automatically, I said, yes, this was not time to be worrying whether or not these stations were affiliated, people needed to know this information. ME (executive in NYC) said that he received those calls... hum... Mr. Smiley, it got pretty ugly after the tragedy. People were mis-firing all over the place, professionalizism suffered.. anyways Happy Birthday on the 13th, I am glad to have met you, Sir and you inspire to do better for my community and country.

I watch your progam all the time on KERA, in Dallas, and I see that you, too, know the game. "Stanley! You know the game," is what my Israeli brother, Shmuel Hezi, aka, Sunny Hays, who asked me to call him uncle on the first night we met, use to say to me all the time. "Stanley! You can sell ice cream to an Eskimo," is also what he told me.

And with that, I invite you to click on http://www.cafepress.com/theus a to access my main website. My name is Stanley Mathis, and aside from being a content website developer, and optimization expert who shows you the BEEF!, I am also the poet who penned America's Team, the poem, that the world famous Dallas Cowboys Football Club sold (148) black lacquer framed copies of throughout their pro shops, in 1997.
