Susan - Luckily with the tv camera's, you don't usually even know when you are being filmed. The hand held camera's are usually for the in house display jumbotron things.

There was one year when I swear the camera operators were bent on showing me eating. Game after game after game. Just what ANYONE wants televised. I had folks calling me and telling ME what I had for dinner.

Now, I make sure I eat before the game starts.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Heh. Well, I've only been on the jumbotron once, and the camera was really on the family in the row in front of us (this was pre-Annabel). And if I've been on TV, apparently no one who knew me was watching, because I haven't heard about it.

Somebody tell me to go write. Annabel is asleep, the game is over (we gained ground on the Angels, woo!), and DH is working on a project of his own. IOW, there are NO distractions or interruptions waiting to happen. This is RARE. But I'm not taking advantage of it because I'm stuck on how to write the next scene. I won't even dignify it with the term writers block (and anyway, Bernard Cornwell said at a conference I was at that there's no such fucking thing as writers block, if you mean to be a professional you do your job whether you're in the mood or not, and I agree with him). It's just pure procrastination. The scene is in the POV of the character I'm having the most trouble writing, and it's a sort of tricky action scene, so I'm stalling because it's not going to be easy or fun to write.

Sing it. I've spent all evening, trying to bang out 1,050 words on the environmental factors related to domestic and global marketing. I'm at 745...and BRAIN DEAD.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

WindSparrow, that is too precious for words!
Cutest thing!!

I know! One of my favoritest things nowadays is to see how happy Harvey is being skritched by Daniel.

I still need to get my own damn cat, though.

How had Technology helped McDonald's marketing?

They don't have to change the numbers on those "over 1.234567 billion served" signs by hand every day?

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

You mean electronic technology or any kind?

I'd think new cup technology has helped them (yes, this sounds silly, but, as the daughter of a Diet Coke from McDonald's junkie, I swear it's true)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
