Back in Vermont..  after another whirlwind trip down to NYC. This one was to take max and friends back to the oat for new years.. and for me to do some media interviews for IBM. I  did about 12 short interviews with TV and radio stations around the country about IBM’s predictions of cool technology innovations we expect to see in the next 5 years.  I like doing anything like this that gets the public more jazzed about technology and science.  Doing these interviews was a great experience .. it gave me a new appreciation for how hard it must be to put together a daily new broadcast. In between interviews I got to talk to some of the really nice folks at the studio..   One bones to the day is that I . got an earier start home today because our last interview (Fox news) got moved to toorrow. A friend of ine will have to do that one..

OK.. .. so I didn’t have my camera for today.. so I have a bit of a backlog from the trip.. here are a few shots from the lasrt 2 days

Yesterday morning.at the reakfast counter.. We had quite a crowd spending the night..

Max, Scott and I headed own to NYC around 11.. followed by another car with Mason Annot and Pat..

We had a good time on the way down.. We took turns choosign the music. Here’s Max’s innovation for choillign some of our warm sodas.. hang it outside the car from a wire. it worked great !

The snow in the city was amazing.. look at this along 678 !

The oat got comepletely coverd with snow.. In some places the doors weren’t enough to keep the snow out.. here’s the front of the shop !!!

Around 8 I headed in to Manhattan to have dinner with my friend Eric.. He was one of the producers of the the first Colony season.. It too me only 15 min to get 90A% of the way to the mid west side.. the last mile took about 40 minutes due to the huge piles of snow.

Eric was there waiting. We had a great thai meal and enjoyed catching up.

I stayed on the lower east side.. I got to the studio this morning around 7.. then did back to back interviews until about 1..As soon as we were done I grabbed my car and drove back to the bot.. it was amazing seeign the snow and ice in daylight.


We all went out to a great middle eastern place for lunch..

the scott and I headed north while the other guys walked back to the boat.. again.. getting out of the city was nuts due to the huge piles of snow !

Scott and I had a great drive back.. good music, great conversation. .. He’s such a good guy…

I dropped him at his house around 9:30.. then went straight home.. There was another party going on.. it was so great to see people there  at 10 PM.

Now. I’m in bed and falling asleep.. i think I better end here… more tomorrow… sure is nice to be home.

Nite all, nite Sam .
