			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-size: medium;">Mr. Fudge, balloon artist and entertainer out of Tampa, was covered in a front page story about balloon artists and their craft in the Wall Street Journal.</span></p>
<p><em><span style="font-size: small;">Having twisted balloons for a number of years, it was a great honor to have the Wall Street Journal call me up and request an interview in person. When I found out that the reporter wanted to fly in from Chicago to spend the weekend with me so, I was ecstatic. It was an awesome feeling. Soon after, however, I began to get nervous and then sick. I had never had someone so important want to follow me around for any length of time, let alone a weekend. I called every mentor I had. I called balloon artists, family, friends, and business owners. I tried to stick with people I knew had dealt with the press, but I could use an encouraging word from anyone I could get a hold of.</span></em></p>
<p>Below is one of the excerpts from the over 1,000 word entry.</p>
<p><em>&#8220;Finally he handed the birthday boy the finished product &#8211; a portrait of Luigi, a character from the Super Mario Bros. video game, complete with twisted brown mustache, green body, and white gloves. The boy smiled and asked him to autograph it.&#8221;</em></p>
<p>In addition to the written article which appeared on the front page of the Wall Street Journal, there was also an article online, a photo gallery, and a video which I&#8217;ve posted below.<br />
