Lunch with Katie...

Some of y'all have heard that I was able to have a private lunch with Director Paulison, Katie Couric and Lori Beecher, a sr. producer from CBS. Needless to say, that Dir. Paulison and I were genuienly curious to what Katie Couric is like. We were so pleased to end up eating with one of the most genuine people I have ever met. She was truly interested in what we were doing in NYC, what Chief is doing to improve our embattled agency, etc. A mental note: her high school in Arlington played Oakton High when she was a student, so we may have to send her an Oakton beanie or something along those lines.

It was a great lunch and we were absolutely thrilled that she and Lori would take time from their hectic schedules to sit down with the like of us.
Oh- and to live up to a promise- here's a link to Katie's blog:
