Jorge had a good month

Many of you don't know Jorge Avellan ... well that is too bad. Because Jorge is awesome. He's just one of those people that you come in contact with and know... really know... that he's special... and not just for his magical ability to make any piece of clothing look good, but also because, well you'll notice that first. But then, eventually you'll notice how damn happy he is... and positive... and how everything good seems to happen to him... and yet he is so down to earth and real that it's incredible.

Well I'm glad to say that Jorge had a particularly good month. Not only did Jorge become a citizen finally... but he also won an Emmy. Jorge's family came over from Nicaragua when he was very young... and for the life of me I really thought he had become a citizen by now... but eh. And over the last year he created a thirty minute show on "Immigrating to Canada (in Espanol)" and how there is the belief that if you go to illegal immigrants went to Canada they'd be made a citizen... well If I'm correct, they could go there and get some rights, but a few months later would then get deported back to where they came from. It was some scandalous business, and Jorge got to the bottom of it, and for that he won an Emmy.

So here's a picture of good old Jorge. Copy and paste the link.. you can also go to univision detroit to catch his nightly news clips. If he ever comes into town I will shepherd him around like the celebrity he is...
