LoL not long enough, but there's a fine line between cosmetology and miracles lol

To top it all off, KVUE sends me an email at noon asking if they can stop by this afternoon, and sure enough as the reporter and photog are walking up to the shop, side by side next to them is the FedEx guy delivering our competition robot the day after the president visits! LoL

Click here to see the report that aired at six!
