WSB sponsor gets a national spotlight

She didn’t point this out to us – WSB’er JT did – but WSB sponsor Rhonda Porter, who writes The Mortgage Porter, is quoted in an article from tomorrow’s New York Times. As we had just explained to somebody earlier today, we don’t put up a lot of West Seattle-related newspaper links here on the home page unless there’s something extraordinary about them, since that’s what the More page is for, but getting quoted in the NYT is a big deal in our book!

    Thanks so much! You found the link to the article before I did. :) What’s funny to me is that I was interviewed for at least a half hour…and then it boils down to a sentence…but it is the NYT. I’m tickled.

    Just think Rhonda, with that interview time to printed comment ratio, if they’d only interviewed you for 5 minutes, your statement would have been left at “The…”! ;)

    Thanks, Mike. I was afraid they would “Earl” me… (there was an episode of My Name is Earl where a news reporter totally twisted their story). :)

    Rhonda, it was so fun to have an *I know that name* moment when I was reading the Times. Big congrats. Very cool! Even for a sentence, they obviously recognize your expertise. You were in the New York Times!
