Buffalo chicken wing shortage be damned!

Superbowl weekend can go on for another year without worries. In the center of Atlanta, GA, a major city...roams a free chicken. A chicken people. In aparking lot, just kicking it, enjoying all the sites Atlanta has to offer. And that is just great.

Not a clear picture, but I have to share.

I was catching a plane from Atlanta to LA last night (I currently hate AirTran) and I couldn't help but notice a very strong choice a female passenger made. Get this. She is carrying a Gucci purse and is wearing Converse style Gucci sneakers. Now this story doesn't seem special until you notice that this woman decided with her adult brain to wear one denim leg shoved into her sneaker so you could get the full effect of the Guccis on her shoe, and the other pant leg down. As soon as I saw her, my jaw dropped and I had to take a pic and share. I wanted to go up and ask her how she decided on THIS choice but couldn't stop judging and laughing. Oy. I am going to hell.

Update on HGTV's DESIGNED TO SELL

All right, so i hauled my little So. Cal loving butt to Hotlanta to do some work on HGTV's show, DESIGNED TO SELL. Well after filming 11 episodes, we were told the show, whose other cities have been cancelled, will not be renewed. And my episodes will air July 2010. I know, this isn't great news. But do not fret! I was on the Rose Parade for HGTV and will find another series soon! Plus you know me, I'll pop up somewhere somehow...

Speaking of...I went to CES to cover the show for SPIKE.COM. The videos are being cut and I will VO them soon. I will let you know. What did I see that was noteworthy at this show? Lemme just say, not really much! Holy crap! Look, this show hasn't really wowed any reporter for some time. It wasn't like someone came out with a fax machine that uses sheets of paper instead of a roll! Or we saw the first integration of the camera into the phone. I did see two things that were cool.

And this makes CES worth attending....only at a show like this do you get to see prototypes like this: Panasonic's Ultra-thin technology that allows them to cram a gorgeous 50-inch plasma into a 1/3-inch profile TV. Now remember, this is a prototype. I saw bubbling at the top of the screen, it was so early.

Another cool thing? I saw a completely waterproof MP3 player from Freestlye Audio, and earbuds. It isn't water resistant; you can actually go snorkeling with this thing and listen to a soundtrack as gorgeous sea life swims by you. I like that. It isn't the first one out, but since most out there don't work, this could be the first working waterproof MP3. I saw this thing sitting in a vase full of water for a good 30 minutes. I asked if it could last longer than that and was told yes. It peaks my curiosity.

Okay, and since my show for HGTV isn't being renewed, I was thinking of driving across country back home. I am thinking hard...most people are saying don't do it.

Thoughts?

Sunrise on new year's day

Happy 2009! This is my stage manager, John, who will try his best to keep me from being float carnage. I'll give him a run for his money!
