Here and There Blog

I'm back from Nashville with pictures and stories to post once I get caught up on everything else in life. The hotel was having trouble with net connections and I was unable to post all the fun things that happened this week. I'm suffering from sleep deprivation, jet lag, and over-indulgence in food and drink. You know, the usual. While this was a work trip we did get some time off to visit the city. I have pictures of some events but there were unexpected moments where a camera would have been cool. Anyhow, check back Friday or Saturday for more.

As I try to post this, my laptop keeps trying to reboot. Such is the joy of upgrades and migrations. Ugh. Let us move on to "Team America, World Police." Since I have the t-shirt in my closet thanks to Comic-Con, I felt the need to see the movie. When Trey Parker and Matt Stone showed a small preview at the Con, it was a different spin on the movie than the current media focus. I really laughed at the Con but as it sometimes goes, most of the good stuff is in the previews.

I'm out of town for the rest of the week and probably won't post too much. This is just a week of meetings at the office but next week I'll be blogging from Nashville.

Let's hear it for some good news of the day! It's Homer's Birthday! Happy Birthday Homer!

While Chris Reeve will forever be Superman, I'll always have a spot in my heart for "Somewhere in Time."
