It's Not Always All About You.

Twenty two years ago today, Baby Jessica McClure was rescued from the well she had been trapped in for 58 long hours. We've all seen the "Where-Is-She-Now?" special, but has anyone ever stopped to ask where the well is now??  I did. And over the course of a 2-hour Hungry-Man dinner, this is what he said:

LISTEN TO THE WELL'S STORY, LIVE!!!


October 14, ‘87, started out okay, just your average morning,baby Jessica comes out to play. But she didn’t want her toys, or her cabbage patch kid doll, instead she felt like going for a 22-foot fall. People worried about that baby, when they heard she fell, but no one asked how I was feeling, Cuz I’m just the “stupid well.” But let’s get something straight here folks, I’m not the one to blame. Jumping down a well is a VERY RECKLESS GAME! I tried to keep her comfortable, all she did was cry and complain, I sang her some new hip hop songs, like Raw by Big Daddy Kane. But when the whole ordeal was over, It was all about Baby J. You don’t see Old Welly in a Michael Jackson video, or being interviewed on “Today.” A lot of time has passed now, 22 years to be exact, since I was in the media spotlight, and became a historical fact. I’m not looking for any money, my compassion has no price, and I’m not one to ask for much, but a Thank You would be nice. Bitch.
