The Seven Degrees of Stephen Egerton

The new Album from Stephen Egerton was released today. I highly recommend that you pick it up or download it now from iTunes. If you want more info on the release go to Stephen's website where you can find the official press release.

I wouldn't call myself a music critic, but I do listen to a lot of music. I believe this may be the best album of 2010 (at least my favorite) Some stand out tracks include Sunny Disposition, Funny Face, Never Again, the whole album is amazing really.

I will be at the release show in Tulsa on Saturday and will let you know how that went later next week.

I will put my cooking segment up in a couple weeks, but to tide you over, here is a brief clip in which I participate in some morning Show shenanigans.

Enjoy.

Me, Dan, and a Bottle of Vodka

Thursday I waited in line for two hours at a Woodman's of ALL places to meet the man, the myth, the legend, Dan Aykroyd and buy his tastie Vodka that comes in an awesome glass skull. I didn't really get to say much to the man. There was only enough time for an autographed bottle and a quick hand shake photo op. there were a lot of people in line behind me and I think Mr. Aykroyd was in for a long night. If I were the man I think I might have gone through more than a few of thosse bottles before the night was through.

Also, to those who live in the Madison, WI viewing area, I will be doing a cooking segment on Weekend Morning Live on NBC 15 between 8:30 and 9:00 in the AM. It's early, so don't forget to set your DVR's. If you don't live in the Madison area, I will put the segment on the youtube sometime in the near future.

This Concludes Our Broadcast Day

The Death of Analog Television has come. WMTV-NBC 15 in Madison shut down its analog transmitter on February 16th at 11:59 PM Central Standard Time, and in doing so, ended the era of smacking the back of your television to get good reception.

Here's to you TV (lifts glass for a toast) We had some great times you and me. You were my only friend. I'll miss you.

The Death of Analog Television Part 1

Philo T. Farnsworth invented the television back in 1927. Since then it has become loved and hated by billions and billions, but after tonight the television that we ALL grew up with will cease to exist (if you have been living under a rock for the past 9 years, TV is going digital) Originally slated for the 17th of February, All stations in the Madison area must now end their analog signal by the 17th. If you're doing the math at home, that means a day early. Don't forget to set your alarms for 11:55 tonight (if you happen to go to bed early like me), watch the signal turn to snow, have a drink in it's memory, and then go back to bed because you have to get up in two hours.

Come back tomorrow for part 2.

I can't believe this day is finally here

I Have never been more proud to be an American than at this moment. I'ts a new day in America and it's time we all move forward. As President Obama said in his speech:

"Starting today, we must pick ourselves up, dust ourselves off, and begin again the work of remaking America."

We must ALL stand up together in unity, and do what we can as individuals to make this country great again.

I sat in my living room all day today glued to my television and filled with hope for the future. Change is coming. Go out tonight and celebrate!

1/20/09!

I had an hour and a half worth of sleep in the last 40 hours. I'm going to bed.

It's Your Right

Bella and I would like to remind you to Barack The Vote! I finally got my Obama pin from Moveon.org in the mail today. At least it came today instead of tomorrow. That would have been useless. Anyway, get to the polls unless you're voting for McCain that is.
