Good news from the land of Oz

OK, so maybe I don't get the Oz Daily Herald, but I have been given some good news from another land that I care about slightly more than Oz - Notre Dame. As most of my avid readers will know, I was the founding Executive Producer of NDtv - Notre Dame Television - during a good portion of my time at ND. Anyway, I left control of the show in the very capable hands of Mr. Adam Fairholm, who has taken NDtv to a new level this year. With the invaluable aid of Laurie McFadden, SAO Advisor for NDtv, the seeds that I planted have been nurtured by Adam and now NDtv has been given not only their own station on which to broadcast, but they have also been told that come spring semester, they will have their own studio in Washington Hall! Now, you have to admit that this is great news, particularly considering that NDtv is only in its third year. And the first year can hardly be counted, as we were battling SAO for most of that time trying to get funding.

Oh, and if that isn't news enough for you, I am also happy to report that I picked up Chris Columbus at the airport on Monday. Chris is actually a really nice guy. He sat in the front seat of the car and we talked for a brief period of time on the drive. I had to take him from LAX to his hotel in Beverly Hills. Not much else to report on this, but interesting news all the same.

Actually I got that wrong. When I read we are "getting a studio", what it actually said is we are "getting a Mr. Coffee". Sorry for any confusion Lance.
