Hit the DWI Hit Parade

Ken Rossignol

Have you ever seen the link on the right side of this blog to the DWI Hit Parade? Any idea what it's all about?

Check out this story on ABC's Channel 7 that ran in June 2011.

In 2000 Ken Rossignol and I got acquainted. It was maybe a year or so after I was a guest on ABC's The View about my traffic crusade. Ken and I exchanged many emails, and I looked forward to the day we'd meet. Ken was publishing St. Mary's Today, an internet newspaper with a weekly print edition.

About three years ago I was through southern Maryland, as I drove from Richmond, Va. to Annapolis. I called Ken after buying a copy of St. Mary's Today at a newsbox at the first Maryland Rest Area. Unfortunately, it wasn't a good time for us to meet on short notice.

In 2010 Ken sold St. Mary's Today. He told the new owner not to change the format, but he did. And it's gone now.

DUIs were always a hot button for Ken, and he began publishing www.DWIHitParade.com

Well, this summer we did meet. Ken autographed a copy of St. Mary's Today - The Story of the Rag for me. Ken has authored numerous books on the Titanic and the Panama Canal and other topics. I invite you to visit amazon.com and begin reading Ken's books. Charge up that Kindle!
