    We are grateful to be back for season 5 of "Hey! What's Your Deal?" In this episode Mr. B talks about why it is important to be grateful in life. He talks about many of the things he is grateful for, including being named the GT Coordinator of the Year for the state of Arkansas at the AAEA conference this summer. He also shares a humorous, behind the scenes story when accepting the award that not many people know about- until now. Needless to say, it is important to be able to laugh at ourselves at all times. Welcome back to a new year and a new season, and remember to never be afraid to embrace your inner weirdo!
