Last week's trip to Minnesota was enjoyable enough. It was my second football game of the year, but my first as lead tech. There's a big difference between working as a tech and as lead tech. When you're lead tech - everything falls on your shoulders in regard to responsibility for the show coming off properly (yellow line wise). My first week of football (in Michigan) was working with Charles. You may remember Charles from my days of building houses in California City. Here's a photo of Charles and his dad that I took while we were putting the roof on my house in California.
Unfortunately, I forgot to take a photo of Charles and I while we were working together a few weeks ago. Charles has been working with Sportvision for 5 years or so and he (as well as Rick and JB) are responsible for me getting a job there.
So this week, I worked with Kent. Here's an interesting twist: I also worked with Kent in California City, but this time he's the new guy. In fact, Charles and I are responsible for Kent getting a shot with Sportvision. Kinda cool how it all comes together huh? Here's a photo I took of Kent and I in the production truck.
Here's a photo I took of Kent while we were working in California about a year and a half ago.
When I first got to Minneapolis, I got off the plane, got my rental car and went directly to the "Mall of America" to check out the Apple store and take free seminar they were offering on .mac. This is the largest mall in the world (I think- at least it's the largest in the U.S.). It was so large that it had multiples of the same stores on different sides of the mall.
In the center of the mall is a theme park of sorts. With a number of rides including a ferris wheel and a roller coaster. It's a pretty cool place with 3 full levels of stores.

Some port-o-john company has the slogan: "We're #1 in the #2 business!"
