Hey Everyone!

Check this out....

After 1 month of looking for a New York correspondent for the nationally televised morning show "Good Day Live" they have narrowed the field down to 12 finalists.

I am one of the 12 finalists!

They will be airing a 1 minute tape of me during the broadcast on MONDAY Nov. 29th.

Then its up to the viewers to vote for who they want.

So here is my plea for your vote!

As if you didn't hear enough this year about getting out to vote, at least this time you can stay home and vote. I'm not sure exactly what you have to do to vote but they will tell you during the show. I will also send an update if I get one.
Please forward this to all your friends, and ask them to forward it, and so on. If those chain letters can get to everyone, I think that with your help this can too. This is a huge opportunity for me, and I can't do it alone. I need some help from my friends. (and their friends, and their friends)

In New York it airs on FOX Channel 5 at 12 noon. Below I have included a list of all the cities and the times that the show airs.
Also you can see a write-up that they just did in the New York Post today, as well as the official contest website.
Thank you all so much for you help and support, hopefully we can make this happen.
Best,
T.J. Allard

November 23, 2004 -- 'Live,' from New York
"Good Day Live" is nearing the end of its month-long search to find a New York City-based correspondent — and has narrowed the field down to 12 finalists.
Next Monday, Nov. 29, "GDL" will feature the one- minute video submissions from all 12 final ists, with viewers then narrowing the field down to the "final five." The next day, on Tuesday, "GDL's" Debbie Matenopoulos will be here as the public winnows the list down to three finalists — with the winner crowned on Wednesday, Dec. 1. The ultimate winner will join "GDL" as a guest correspondent filing reports on the goings-on in our fair city.
"GDL" (noon/Ch. 5) is co- anchored by Steve Edwards, Arthel Neville and Matenopoulos.
