OMG, I just got tweeted by Al Gore. I've never actually typed "OMG" on a text or a blog or a tweet, but I figured this was the occasion to seize the day and give it a shot.
Turns out Al Gore, with over 2 million twitter followers just tweeted the New York Times Story about Spokane pastors and churches going green, which includes the church I pastor and our work with the Millwood Farmers' Market.

I realize I'm on the edge of sounding like a narcissistic, vainglorious publicity hound at this point, so I promise this will be the last time I mention this whole hubbub with the New York Times. Promise.
But I do reserve the right to wear my "I got tweeted by Al Gore" T-shirt on occasion.
Fly your tweet/Gore flag proudly.
I just read about another couple who did a year of eating locally, and if I can remember where I saw it, I will send it to you.
You're no narcissist, but you are awesome!

I think you are great. I saw the article all over Facebook. Even Episcopalians were putting it out there! You are not a newshound. I've seen you ignore media attention when it was the right thing to do. I love that about you. Glad your 15 minutes of fame is healthy and happy. That's news!!!!

Kelly laughed and cried when she heard about the tweet.

Believe me, this is not a proud moment. I would hide this Tweet - if you want to remain relevant to the rest of us.

It sounds like a "My Son Got Tweeted By Al Gore" T-shirt might be in order.
