I love the Samson and Delilah concept. Chris looks good with or without hair. Have been wondering what he has been doing since leaving the News.

WOW! This is local color at its best. Thanks, Griff. And kudos to Chris…. it probably wasn’t an easy decision! Maybe he donated to Locks of Love or something.

Stephanie, I didn’t ask him what he’s been doing lately but Chris has been working for Steve Schmidt Construction
