Well, Gladys Glover is one girl who
decided to do something about it.
:47:05
But let's get her own story
in her own words.
:47:10
Well, Gladys,
how did you get this idea?
:47:14
"It just came to me.
:47:16
I was walking along, and I happened
to feel on the blue side.
:47:21
And I just lost my job, and I realized
that I certainly was a failure.
:47:27
And I realized how the whole reason
I came to New York in the first place...
:47:32
...was to see if I could not make
a name for myself.
:47:36
And time was going by,
and I was not getting any younger.
:47:41
And it looked like I never would.
And so then I saw this big..."
:47:46
And then what happened?
:47:48
"And so then I saw this big sign
up there on Columbus Circle.
:47:54
And all of a sudden, I seemed
to see my name on it."
:47:59
That's happened
to many of us, I'm sure.
:48:01
"Oh, yes.
:48:04
And so then I...
:48:07
...began to wonder how much
it would cost.
:48:09
So I went down and asked the man,
and this is how it started.
:48:14
I was in a store and somebody who
saw my sign asked for my autograph.
:48:18
That was some thrill,
and this is too."
:48:27
You mean, being with us
on The People Speak?
:48:29
"That's right. Some thrill."
:48:32
Thank you, Gladys Glover.
:48:34
And another thrill is
I'm gonna get paid for it too.
:48:42
Indeed you are.
Indeed you are.
:48:45
Do you mind telling us what
you're gonna do with the money?
:48:48
I'm gonna rent a lot more signs
and put my name on them.
:48:58
Thank you very much.
