Greetings from Battersea...
November 26, 2008 11:04 AMby Jay TedeschiGreetings everyone… no, not dead again. Is anyone detecting a trend here? Every year about this time my posts get spotty… from an occurrence standpoint, not visual, although I can certainly make this “spotty” as well. Actually, why not? You want spotty, here’s spotty…
Mmmm… Candy buttons… While searching for things with a “Spotty” theme I came across this as well…
Okay, so Sophie and her pug Percival… and she has on a spotted shawl. Cute, but quite unremarkable actually, unless you recognize the background… Battersea Power Station in the UK. Which again, may be unremarkable, unless of course you were over the age of 12 in 1977 when a little album called Animals was released by the progressive rock band Pink Floyd. In which case, you may remember seeing it more like this…
Cool huh? Okay, maybe not, but you try video editing for a week and tell me that you don’t start seeing spots!I realize that I have veered waaay off track here, but I just wanted everyone to know that I have not forgotten about you. I have simply been so busy participating in AU China and Japan, which were excellent by the way, and prepping for AU in Vegas next week that I have had little time for anything at all other than that.
Here I am presenting at AU in China… looks pretty much the same doesn’t it? The crowds were good, except for my session [grin] and everyone whom I met was very enthusiastic about having a regional specific AU again next year. Let’s face it, I know we all love Vegas but it is a bear to fly all the way from the Pacific Rim, at least that is what I have heard. I myself am fairly immune to jet lag, and am actually quite jazzed to have a 41 hour day, which is about what you end up with for a single calendar day on the return leg from a trip to the Pacific Rim.Okay, I have rambled on quite a bit here and have to stop now. Have a great holiday everyone and I promise that after AU is over next week my posts frequency and quality will return to normal. Until then, any suggestions on what I should blog about next week? [grin]
