State of Otis’ State Address

…oh, so you came here trying to figure out if I’d jumped off a ledge yet? Well, the answer is nuh-uh. Traffic here was way up on Monday. I can only assume it’s because there was a giant beacon on your favorites section that flashed a marquee reading “Otis’ head to explode — Click here.”

There have a been a couple times in my professional life that I’ve gone into information lock-down. This happens to be one of them, partially because I can’t say much, and partially because I don’t know much.

That said, I thank everyone for the phone calls, e-mails, and instant messages that came in all day. Despite having trash bags under my eyes and a fatigue that can only be described as debilitating, I’m doing alright. Your concern made the day a little better.

Oh, and if I’m being a little too cryptic for those out of the loop, I apologize. All’s well for now. As for it ending well, we’ll just have to wait and see.

  1. I guess Frist didn’t have hard working fathers in mind when he did this.

    Hang in there Otis.

  2. He sure didn’t. You see a guy like Eric Lynch on TV last night and wonder how many more guys like that are out there. Decent, honest guys with families. Guys like Otis.

    My thoughts are with you, man.

    I’m gonna have to use your blog, because I don’t know everybody’s e-mail. I talked to Ryan yesterday, and Liam has a tumor on his brain. They did an MRI today. Aparently it’s putting pressure on his spinal chord and he has a lot of fluid on his brain. If I hear anything else I’ll tell Ben and he can e-mail everybody. Hug your kids everybody.
