"Well, well. Is that our little author coming back? Humming his hymns a little altered. Your attention: put back on the flow like the department of water. Take it off of the door little Walter. Chess? Yes. Baby, I'm Jerry Lawler. Rebel with a cause; Outlaw with a lawyer."

Today was fun. Work was pretty laid back and mostly spent showing Pablo how to use the camera and set up the rest of the equipment. Probably will have some more stuff to go over tomorrow, including how to hook up an external to the camera to drop the footage from the P2 card. Good conversations with everyone (Meagen, Shannon, Rhett, etc.) throughout the day. Thanks for that.

I changed when I got home and headed to Owosso to meet up with Ryan VanLoon. I hadn't had much time to just hang out with him in the past few months, so that's what the night was for. We stopped by Biggby's to see Jon right quick, got some Fortune House, and headed back to his place o' business to eat and talk. Afterward we got on his computer and showed me some nice microphones to keep an eye on. I'm looking to purchase a wireless lav sometime soon, so this was very helpful. I also got to check out the work he'd been doing for a half-year now. Not bad at all, if I do say so.

You know...all AT&T and Apple stores nationwide are opening their doors at 7:00am tomorrow morning for the launch of the new iPhone 3GS. I'm actually considering getting up to try to get one. We'll see how tired I am in the morning. I may just wait until they become plentiful enough where I can walk in at anytime and get a phone. Then again...I have been waiting since the new year to get a new phone and iPod and service...so...

Only a few more hours and we'll know the answer to that.

One more thing. Tomorrow, FINALLY, Wale will be releasing his mixtape, Back to the Feature. It's been a LONG time coming. In fact, I thought it may have been out close to 9 or 10 months ago. Either way, I'm happy it's finally here. Or is it? Honestly, only time will tell with this one, too. I shouldn't say anything is for sure before it actually happens. Right, Red Wings...

Look up in the sky,
