AV Geeks
Five amigos once thrown together in Hippieville...
Now, we're fighting evil in the desert, on the prairie and in the city.
Sure, we're the glorified AV geeks of local news... but we're much much cooler.

Green?


Root for it?



Or against it?



2 for 2.


Now if only another OSU loses tomorrow...

KOSMIC FREEDUM

The van was sold upon the completion of "Hippies"...and never seen again...until tonight. I was driving up to S's house in South Eugene. I turned off of Hilyard, around 34th Street, only to be immediately greeted by a familiar sight. Kosmic Freedum parked outside a church...looking as good as ever.

FISCH BE GONE

The man, the myth, the legend known as the Fisch is no more at KEEZEE. Tonight was his last night.

Fischer's last day

They've already started interviewing candidates for his replacement.

FROZEN FISH POND

Schop's coy fish pond has been frozen over for three days. He has 7 or 8 fish in there, and since it has frozen over, the fish have disappeared, presumably to the bottom of the pond where the water is least cold.

If the fish die, it will be Lucky's fault.

We got some.

Snow, that is.

Come visit. Than we can talk snow and cold, boys.

I have to say, snow in the desert is pretty awesome, Dusty. We around here are really not all that surprised by snow. Though you'd think so for the way people have been driving. Guapo - buck up, man.

What the......SNOW!?

Snow?! In Vegas?!

Global warming my ass! I can't believe that it is actually snowing here right now. I'm serious, it is really falling too. For the desert this is a miracle!

SON OF A...


It has started snowing here tonight. Dammit. Can't we just have a good ole fashioned balmy rain storm? Like the good old days.

What's the weather in y'all hoods?

MOVIE NIGHT

We shot 4 different set-up's in the basement of the old Eugene Library tonight. It was our first shoot that didn't take place in one of our houses.

After we were done, we wandered up into the building and found some other pretty sweet looking locations. We decided we're going to go back to shoot there again very soon.

On Fire!

So what is the big news in the cold desert nights? How about the reopening of the Strip volcano. Let me tell you, it is almost just as lame as the old one.

This message was sent using the Picture and Video Messaging service from Verizon Wireless!

I also discovered that I can post pictures from my phone straight to this blog, or any other blog for that matter. This should spice up the blog again now that I can post from anywhere in the world without the use of computers. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha aha ha ha ah ah hahaha ha (evil laughter)

FROM THE ARCHIVES

Since there's nothing new and exciting on here these days...I thought I'd throw up an old pic from the AV Geeks archives.



This was a classic moment.

BOX O' CARDS

So...in the wake of O-to the-S to-the-N going bye-bye at the station...we've been slowly moving out of the upstairs sports office. First the two anchors moved downstairs. Then Schop was sent down. For the past 3 months...it's been me all by my lonesome in the sports office. But now, the time has come for me to make the move down.

I'm being given my old office back. It's been a storage facility for the last year. Today I moved all of the crap out of the office...prepping it for ME.


Anyway...my Avid is getting moved into the office, along with several bookshelves full of sports tapes, etc. Basically, I get my own private editing room. Pretty sweet.

As for the box o' cards...
Well...
While digging through the mountains of beta tapes, Jesse England origami airplanes, and audio cables...I stumbled upon a box...

...full of photog business cards.

There were some KRI's...some CDA's...some JDE's...some RSH's...some JJU's...and some CNE's...

There were no KCA's, but I did find a big beta tape labeled, Kash's Save Tape. So I threw that out.

Anyway...it was an entertaining day of digging through old crap in the old office...which is about to become my new office/edit bay/sports office number 2, which is directly across from sports office number 1, on the other side of the news editing area.

So.
Yeah.
