Tonight's the Night!
It takes incredible strength
for an entire family to open itself up to the world. Mine has done that by embracing the
creation of the documentary that will air nationwide tonight on PBS. I want to thank my
parents for their amazing support. I want to thank my children for their patience. It isn't
always easy to have a dad that is "out there" like theirs. And I want to thank Joanne Caputo
for her friendship and her ability to captain this ship home. I hope you enjoy the film.
You can watch "On A Roll: Family, Disability and the American Dream" tonight at 9 p.m. or 10 p.m. in
most markets. Check your local listings for stations and broadcast times. Visit
http://www.pbs.org/onaroll for more information.
Terri's Strength
I wish to particulary thank my
ex-wife Terri for participating in the project. Her willingness to be honest and forthright is
an amazing display of inner strength. I have a great deal of respect for her as the mother of
my children. When you see the film, you'll learn about the demise of our marriage, but you
won't hear much about the wonderful times we shared, and there were many. That complete story
will be told in my book.
The Strength Coach Store is Now Open!
You can own a DVD of the documentary with special features, including a commentary by Filmmaker
Joanne Caputo and Consulting Director Michael Ivey, "Greg's Crib," Accessible Sex Toys, Becky
Ogle's Crawl, Jim's Civil Rights, Searching for Michael Moore, Terri's Update, Crawfish, Scuba
Dive, and more!
