So I Might Get a Bit Stressed at Work


So the "Lab with Leo Laporte" recently launched and so far most people are happy with the product. Since we shot in HD we have had some issues when it comes to down converting to standard definition and therefore the first 15 episodes are being broadcast quite dark. GRRR. Ah well, it is a problem that we fixed for episodes 16-30. We were in production last week (shooting episodes 16-30) and my good buddy Rob did the drawing you see above. I found it quite funny so I thought I would share it.
Kate and I are good. Kinda tired from last week but all in all things are coming along. We recently booked flights to England (for Christmas) so at least we once again have another trip on the horizon. I have also recently jumped on the Canucks bandwagon. I haven't watched competitive hockey since about January (that's when the B's decided to mail in the season) so watching the Canucks has been a fun, local experience.

Back from Vegas...Back to Work


Well Kate and I both made it back safe and sound from Sin City. To be completely honest (and maybe it was just the spots/attractions we saw) Vegas was a lot classier than I was expecting. Of course there were the stereotypical Elvi, the large women who CAN NOT pull themselves away from the slot machines, a slew of hookers, but most of the time, I was very impressed.
Tons of pictures are available on my flickr site. One of the highlights for me was seeing Elton John. Believe it or not I have been a closet (pun intended) Elton fan for a while and although the tickets were quite pricey, it was well worth it. And finally, much like many of our trips taken in March, by the time we got back home the Bruins were mathematically eliminated from playoff contention. Ah well, time to focus on the Sox...hmm who lost 7-1 yesterday...there truly is no joy in Beantown.
