Default my brother may be a millionare

My brother was selected to be on the game show 'Who wants to be a Millionaire " and is in the chair with Meredith as we speak.

I along with our family are waiting for the phone call to hear how he did. My wife and mother are in the studio audience in NYC as well.

The show will be aired in feb.

My brother who has a teaching degree along with his masters was laid off after a injury last year and has been out of work since,down on his luck and feeling low he tried out for the show and beat out 250 people to be on. The week he got the call to be on the show he also got word from Samsung(where he had an application in) to be a trainer for their techs on the new line of plasma TV's. It's funny how things can change you just have to have faith.

I'll update everyone when I get word later on tonight.

Life is funny like that. Things can change direction, not always for the best or worst, in the wink of an eye.

Good luck to your brother. Let us know when the show is being broadcast.
