I am loathe to self-promote, but you should call in sick Friday morning to come to downtown Fort Worth to watch me fall 87 stories from the top of the XTO Building. Strictly by definition, I won't be falling as much as rappelling. And it's not 87 stories as much as 26. Falling or rappelling, 87 or 26 ... we can argue semantics all day but what is the point? It's the same thing.
And a lot of other self-important media dorks other than myself will be partaking in an event that is critics are calling more vital than global warming.
C'mon, admit it, that's good hair ...
Remember, this isn't about me. It's about the kids.

Mac,
You have to get somebody to film it!!! It's gotta go on Youtube and probably on your blog.
Your out of state fans demand access to your big day.

Don't worry Tina - it is being filmed by one of his colleagues at the FWST. I am sure there will be plenty of viewing opportunities. Can't wait for Friday!

Don't use a net or a safety line or rappeling rope! Just jump off the roof! Your articles/blog/books/tweets/life aren't that great anyways!!! Just go for it!!!

I agree with the previous comment. You want people to read something with your name on it; then jump on friday and go 'splat' on the pavement. People will read THAT!!!
I can see the headlines now.... "SPLAT GOES MAC"!!!
........laughing... i'm kidding. i like your blog. (but you should just jump off the top of the building)

Your blog is a piece of crap. I don't know why I read it. You are an entertaining writer, I guess. But I still hope the cord snaps and hit the sidewalk. To heck with your good teeth, your nose, and professionally manicured hsir dew. See you on the sidewalk pal
