NEUROFIBROMATOSIS AD TO RUN IN TIME, NEWSWEEK and U.S. NEWS AND WORLD REPORT!
May is National Neurofibromatosis Awareness Month!
Thanks to Laurie Selzer and my friends at MNI (Media Networks Inc – a division of TIME, Inc.), we will have a full page ad in the May Houston home edition of Time, Newsweek and US News & World Report magazines to help promote National Neurofibromatosis Month!
STANANDLOU Advertising was nice enough to prepare the attached ad that you see here inviting people to “JUST ASK!” about neurofibromatosis.

You are welcome. I’m very proud of you guys!
Comment by Meredyth | March 24, 2008 |
Lou I’m here. Just doing a thousand things at one time.I’m sure you know the story.
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 24, 2008 |
How did MD Anderson go? That was nice of them to buy so many tshirts. Do you have any left?
Comment by - the blogger formerly known as Lou | March 24, 2008 |
Oh yes I still have some shirts left if anyone wants to buy. I sold three just waiting for my prescriptions. Plus one online. Everything was ok. Bart Moore and Dr. Slopis said to say “Hi!”
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 24, 2008 |
Meredyth how are you? I was the gift on Fackbook. I’m not sure if I replied to it right. You will have to let me know. Jun 4th will be here soon.
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 24, 2008 |
Hey Lou Meredyth and everybody else that go to Starbucks. Talk about your great service. I have been going to the the starbucks on south Main and 610. I love that place. All of the workers are terrific! We got an espresso machine. I’m not good with it. They have been just great with helping me to make the perfect espresso. I was told if I need help they will
show me how to use the machine. Now you tell me if that is a great deal. I will still go by there to get espresso even though I have a espresso maker. Just because it’s a place that makes me feel good.
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 24, 2008 |
What a fabulous ad campaign Reggie! Congrats! Hope to see you at the next Roller Derby bout! 🙂 Dana AKA DeMentia
Comment by Dana Beck | March 24, 2008 |
Hey, Dementia, what a great surprise!!!! Welcome to the blog!
To all of you on the blog who aren’t plugged into Houston Roller Derby, Dementia (Dana) is one of the premiere players in the league. She’s a jammer and captain for the Psych Ward Sirens and she is as pretty as she is dangerous on skates!!!!
Here’s her profile at houstonrollerderby.com.
http://houstonrollerderby.com/public/pag70.aspx
Dementia and Mistilla the Killa will always be our two favorite Derby people for being so nice to us when we first started going to the matches. It was because of their kindness that we kept going back!
To all of you who have never experienced Houston Roller Derby, the next match is April 13 at Verizon Wireless downtown! Game time: 5pm!
Comment by - the blogger formerly known as Lou | March 24, 2008 |
Thank you Dana, Of course I will be there. Love you all and enjoy the derby. When is the next bout?
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 24, 2008 |
Hey there Yall Im here Lou needs his harrassment
Comment by Shelley | March 24, 2008 |
Dementia I can’t wait to see you again. I think it’s time to get another photo with you at one of the bouts. You all treat your fans like they are the stars, when you are. Thanks.
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 24, 2008 |
Oops I made a typo again. I had 3 orders when I went to MD Anderson. I actually sold a lot more then I expected. It’s a good thing I as many AS I DID. Wish I could set up shop there. It’s a good feeling that someone would wear one of my shirts.
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 24, 2008 |
congrats Reggie on selling shirts the more you sell and the more people buy and want them the more the word gets out about NF keep it up Reggie
Comment by Brian | March 24, 2008 |
Brian you are so cool.Keel good to have y’all here. This blog has brought all of us together. Everyone of us. I can’t go a day with out hearing from y’all.
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 24, 2008 |
Reggie you might talk to MD Anderson about selling your shirts there on the weekends the more the people see them the more people may want them to help spread the word about NF I think its a good idea
Comment by Brian | March 24, 2008 |
Brian that is a king idea. I wish we could make that happen. I will have to see if we can talk to someone about that.
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 24, 2008 |
When are you going to be on Oprah ?
Comment by John P | March 24, 2008 |
Oprah? Someone said Opera? Well I don’t know when or if that will ever happen. If would be a nice thing. Remember it’s not all about me. We are all in this thing together. It’s about all of us that have NF and our friends that support us. On the blog and your personal friends that that you yourself know.
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 24, 2008 |
Hey Reggie how many bowls of olives did Lou eat over the weekend ?
Comment by Shelley | March 24, 2008 |
Reggie , Not only is May , National NF Awareness Month, but it is also CELIAC DISEASE AWARENESS MONTH, , the disease that I have.
Comment by Tim | March 24, 2008 |
Things are going great in “ReggieLand!”
Comment by the blogger formerly known as Lou | March 24, 2008 |
No that’s a thought! What about a them park. Reggie Land. Boy do I have some ideas about that.
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 25, 2008 |
I have heard the dates for the 17th Annual Family Camp will be Sept 5 -7, 2008 at Camp For All, Burton Texas. So start planning now for a wonderful weekend.
Comment by John P | March 25, 2008 |
That is a fantastic ad. Is it a national ad? If I can’t get a copy here you’ll have to bring one when we meet up in June.
We’re in the middle of a sandstorm right now (really bad)
wind gusts at about 60mph. I had to get out of it because I didn’t have a mask in my truck.
I’ll let you know if the copy I get here has the ad.
Comment by Jerry T | March 25, 2008 |
hey Tim I also Have the celiac disease NO wheat that stinks
Comment by Brian | March 25, 2008 |
Hey Jerry,
I will make sure you get a copy. I’m not sure if it will be there. If not you WILL GET A COPY. I’m excited about it. You think we will need body guards on our European vacation?
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 25, 2008 |
hey Reggie I want a copy also I will have to find a copy somewhere I want one thats for sure
Comment by Brian | March 25, 2008 |
Good Morning crew! How is everyone today? I’m feeling good.
Love this weather. Having a coffee with Lou today. That should be nice. Past that just working and enjoying the moments. I woke up today and thought it was Weds. That’s always weird. But Tuesday it is. Hope everyone is happy and healthy today.
Comment by Meredyth | March 25, 2008 |
Meredyth, I forgot to warn you, watch out when you mention coffee on this blog. These guys are STARBUCKS FANATICS!!!! So whatever you do, don’t mention that we’ll be meeting at Starbucks later. It’ll be our secret!!!
Comment by - the blogger formerly known as Lou | March 25, 2008 |
Brian I’m sure they will have it in your area. Let me know if you can’t find one. I will send you one if you can’t find it.
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 25, 2008 |
Good late morning,
Meredyth Speaking of starbucks. since Lou brought it up. I’m will be having my daily espresso shortly. It helps me stay up and watch the old shows on TVLAND. Oh and send mean messages to Lou. 🙂
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 25, 2008 |
man Starbucks sounds really good today but I am going to go get lunch and get a Iced Tea today instead of a coke or I may go ahead and get a coke
Comment by Brian | March 25, 2008 |
I always like to get Ice Tea. You get refills.
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 25, 2008 |
true Reggie but at the Sonic by my house wheather its coke or iced tea Sonic dont give refills
Comment by Brian | March 25, 2008 |
Just get a venti whatever and you should be good for at least an hour!
Comment by - the blogger formerly known as Lou | March 25, 2008 |
Lou I’m going to double shot venti what ever.
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 25, 2008 |
If a place do not give free refills, I will not go there. At one time Chilis was like that. I could get free refills on ice tea, but on cokes was another issue. My sunday school class would go out to a place to eat after evening services (this was 29-30 years ago), the waitress come around and ask refill on drinks, sure, but did not say about a charge on cokes. When the bill came, we argue, and had the charges taken off. Do not kow if this was global (everywhere) or just at this location or just a one time incident.
Comment by JohnP | March 25, 2008 |
there is a place in Pearland that is a hamburger joint they are real good well I was eating my hamburger and our ticket was on the table the waitress asked me if I wanted more coke I said yes and she took my glass and the ticket and charged me for a refill I think that is rediculous to charge for refills
Comment by Brian | March 25, 2008 |
Hey Reggie I love the old shows on TVland! I was a Bewitched freak and of Little House on the Prairie!
Oh and too late on the Starbucks info Lou. I’m tons energized now!
Comment by Meredyth | March 25, 2008 |
Oh it’s never too late for starbucks. If you ever get to wired just watch TVLAND or talk to Lou. He will put you to sleep. I know I know. I just couldn’t let that one go. Sorry Lou. 😉
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 25, 2008 |
Me, too! Reggie, what’s your phone number again for when I can’t sleep tonight because of all this caffeine!!!!!!!!!!!
Comment by - the blogger formerly known as Lou | March 25, 2008 |
I’m drinking a double shot. I know I will pay for it later.
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 25, 2008 |
Hey Reggie I would call Lou on the phone I would be loud too lol
Comment by Shelley | March 25, 2008 |
I am watching dancing with the stars, I wished I could danch like them, I would take lessons, but my husband would not like me dancing with another man.
Comment by Patricia | March 25, 2008 |

Comment by - the blogger formerly known as Lou | March 26, 2008 |
If the shoe fits.
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 26, 2008 |

Comment by Reggie Bibbs | March 26, 2008 |

Comment by Reggie Bibbs | April 1, 2008 |
Hello! Great job, keep it up! I have a step-daughter with NF type 1. She also seems to have a few risk factors for Celiac disease (I’m also a nurse). I wanted her tested, but the doctors didn’t order it. Does anyone know if there is an affiliation with NF Type 1 and Celiac? Celiac often goes in conjunction with other inherited disorders such as Diabetes Type 1, autoimmune disorders, autism, seizures in certain parts of the brain, dyslexia, and a few others… I’m trying to raise awareness with doctors and the public. Newer statistics say it may be as high as every one in 80 people. If it is a secondary diagnosis, a gluten free diet often helps control their primary illness. Reggie is an inspiration!
Comment by Juliet | July 7, 2008 |
Hi Julie,
thank to for your visit, and kind words. I will pass on your questions to someone who can answer your questions better then I can. Thank you and my best to your step-daughter.
Reggie
Comment by Reggie Bibbs | July 7, 2008 |
i saw something on oprah about NF, i think it’s so sad….. i feel so sorry that they have to go through this……. how do you live with it???? can it kill you??
