Recognize anyone in the photo above? Look real close now.
It's me - Dwayne - starring in a cameo appearances in commercials for Freed's Furniture. I'm there on the left side.
You see, everywhere I seem to go, TV camera crews just gotta have me in their shots. First, last September out in Phoenix (see posting - September 2008) talking about the economy, then last November here in Arlington. OK, here's what happened with Freed's. As part of the "A" Team with the Arlington Chamber of Commerce, I attend and photograph the Ribbon Cutting ceremonies for new members of the Chamber. After the "ceremonies" had concluded, several of us from the Chamber were asked to become actors in the store for the video crew. All we had to do was to look like we were "real paying customers" shopping for furniture.
And look what I'm looking at - a dining room set! Whaaaa??? Hey, I did a good job, right?
And did you notice - Christy Whitaker (Mrs. Arlington 2009 and Member Service Director with the Arlington Chamber of Commerce) is in the shot with me? She's just right of center in a red & white dress. And with her, barely in the screen to your right, is Orlando Campos, also with the Arlington Chamber.
