Life comes at us hard.Ask Al Gore.
Michael J. Fox.
Elizabeth Edwards.
Christopher Reeves.
Blindsided by seemingly career-ending circumstances, each came back swinging, contributing to society in ways that might otherwise have not been considered.
We can debate forever why the Nancy Grace's and J.E.B.'s and George W.'s of this world sail through life unscathed, while those who contribute to the common good are forced to travel a road unexpected, a fork that took them in a direction that taxed their human spirit, yet throughout the toll absolutely showed the rest of the world the meaning of true character.
Don Imus has the chance to do the same.
The AP recently ran a story regarding the possible effects on the Imus firing on his ranch for cancer-stricken kids, indicating charitable donations might drop off.
Don. Strike while you're hot, baby.
Take your "show" on the Road Unexpected, i.e. the lecture circuit. I guarantee, people will pay big bucks to listen to your side of the story, especially if the price of a ticket funnels back to Imus Ranch.
Be the Ed Murrow of kids.
