Our meeting with the producers for our Big Gala ran late yesterday and therefore I missed my bus. I bummed a ride with the Producers, husband and wife team who live a few miles from me, and the Video Guy. Of course, we chat all the way home about this and that and those. And it came down to where I came from and who all else is back home. “My dad and my brothers are still in Bangkok,” I said. And then we launched into another conversation. But when I said it, it was a strange thing to say. ...

Malibu’s on fire. Santa Clarita’s on fire. Ontario’s on fire. Lake Arrowhead and San Bernadino’s on fire. Irvine/Tustin’s on fire. San Diego’s on fire. (Olaina is reporting in here, here and here.) And bits of Santa Barbara is now on fire. LA Times is keeping an up...

Of course, and update from yesterday’s post. 🙂 The new big screen? Awesome. Brandon and Erik are still configuring the thing out with “Transformers” as our guide. The TV may be a cause for future marital spat. Brandon likes the smushed wide screen and hates the gray box on the side if you go regular TV aspect ratio, and I can’t stand the smushedness and therefore don’t mind the gray box. It all comes down to who has the control of the remote which is usually me. Muwahahhaah. The new living room configuration? It’s going to work out great. Now...
