After a year of writing funny real estate articles I was approached to write a humorist column with two conditions. First, eliminate everything real estate and be more “Grandma” friendly (Grandma was a metaphor, but I got the jest). So I decided to research a few seniors so off to the local pharmacy I went. My Plan: disguise myself as an elderly man which my wife found pretty funny since my hair is as grey as it can get and I forget everything already. She worried I might look in a mirror, get confused and forget I was in disguise. Once she realized I was serious she decided it would probably be ok because a few years back she started sewing my name and a short note onto all my cloths; I am Greg Rosen, If found confused call 911. My research determined why the editor no longer wanted real estate articles, seniors were reading my articles to help them fall asleep. I thought we should promote my articles as a sleep aid and I shared the idea with the paper. It was at that point I learned that it is possible for a writer to get fired before they actually get anything into print.
