Hello Big Country!

Hello Big Country! I am Danielle's replacement. My name is Marc Gustafson, but I'm known around the newsroom as Goose. Why? Well, no one can pronounce Gustafson. (It's "Gus-tuff-sun" like the guy in "Grumpy Old Men", by the way). I get a lot of "Goose-tuff-sun", "Gus-tuff-a-sun", and most commonly "Gustaf" or "Gustav". That's where Goose came from. In my old newsroom, the main anchor, 10PM producer and the sports guy were calling me Gustaf. One of them, I can't rememer which one, said "how about Goose?" one night. That was it. In less than 10 minutes it caught on, and ever since then I've been Goose.

Coming up...more about me and a little on how my Abilene experience has gone so far. But I don't want to tell everything now; stay tuned! (as we say in TV)
