Behind The Scenes

Monday night, I listened to the SAP/Mono feed during the Tigers at As baseball game.

Instead of Spanish, we got to hear the technical feed.

Wow, I got goosebumps listening to how hard these people work. And this particular director was actually enjoying the game, going ooh and aw and so forth while he was telling the video crew which camera feed to switch to.

Scott Hysmith managed to get himself a nice crispy sunburn at a baseball game on Saturday. Since he's a blue-eyed blue-veined redhead, this took all of about thirty minutes, and he and family were at the ball game for several hours.

He's gotten burns this bad before. And now, it's happened yet again.

So. Self, I says? It's happened before?... All bets are off. Poor Scott. In addiiton to being upbraided by Yours Truly, I am seriously considering sending him some butter spray and a lime to take with him to his next daytime outdoor fair-weather event.

Ironically, my horoscope yesterday said "Be kind to humble ginger lobsters", so I quit pestering him about it after awhile.

I'll start again when he's finished peeling.

Hey! Who the fuck is looking up the name of Old Buddy Dave's ex-wife?

Yesterday in mid-afternoon, somebody looked her up from the domain 204.126.64.254 which is listed as being the County of Orange GSA Information Systems in Santa Ana. I have now munged her name so you can't do that anymore.

If you do NOT send me an email FROM THE ABOVE DOMAIN, and tell me who you are, I'll block your ass, AND I will report you for surfing during business hours.

I'm ESPECIALLY pissed off if you are a government employee who is farting around when you're supposed to be WORKING.

I'll be sure and make that CRYSTAL clear in any report I make.

You know what? We have had a crappy couple of weeks here in the Bay Area.

Pete Wilson, Tom Snyder, and now Bill Walsh.

Please, folks. Like the caller to the Ronn Owens show said, can we all stop croaking around here for awhile?

Okay, there. Have a good Tuesday.
