Leo and friends this week include Martian Sargent and Sarah Lane, formally of Revision 3 along with Johnny D., Bwana McCall and Steve Bass. Only Leo, Bwana and John D. had not been laid off in the last few weeks. Given the edge that folks entered with, Leo was Genius as usual and greeted his guests with wine, and fine English ale.

One of the best shows in a long time. Is TWIT the new Diggnation? or is TWIT the Diggnation for the over 30 demographic?

Someone just emailed me and asked for the rights to print and sell this image as art. Of course — I said yes.
Just looked at the image again on the large screen .. and it does look great. — Something pretty came come out of such stupidity.

Fire is almost out, certainly under control and the teams are in the mop up stage.

Four little monsters getting a good talking to by parents, police and Deputy Fire Commander
It’s 2pm in the afternoon .. and it sounds like some olde war movie.

There are like five helos flying overhead. Step outside .. and folks are running around like mad. The hillside behind our place is on fire, water bombers have been called in. Prepare to leave.
This does not work for me — six weeks into new job and real busy. Have 1:1 with new boss in like 45 mins. But you know — it does not look too good at the outset.
.. 4pm .. kids admit to accidentally starting the forest fire with fireworks. Kids are charged with Criminal Arson, and Mischief.
.. as we head off to bed, the fire is still burning — we await either sunrise or a knock on the door.
Kids!

April 27th, 2007 – Belmont Leaves BOL heads to Mahalo‘. It’s been less that a year since I blogged about Buzz Out Loud’s Loss (CNET), and Mahalo’s gain. Now big Jason must be driving up and down 101 in a loaner Tesla looking for someone more awesome than Veronica as she heads out the door.
Word has it she may be heading to Rev3 .. but I am hoping we will see her on Network Television. She is now accustom to the daily grind of production and ready for the big leagues.
Wherever you land Veronica — your fans will no doubt be there to cheer you on as you work you next riff.
Updated 8 April - Veronica is heading to Revision as the new host of TekZilla, sourced from her blog.
