The Proulxs: My brother has finally made it big ( maybe)

A couple years ago my brother , Matt, had a little too much spare time. He got some crazy idea about putting some Mento's in a 2 liter of Coke and turning it into a rocket. I remember him spending $30 on the supplies once. I remember him taking little Joshie along for the fun.

Eventually, Matt graduated from Law School, and found something more worth while to do.

The Tonight Show with Jay Leno is now in negotiations with him about using his video on the show next Wednesday.

Stay tuned...
