CES (Consumer Electronics Show)

[Disneyphile]

I spent the day with the "minor" work related stuff. (Sorry, work had to come first.) The important research of the day - awesome DVD packaging options, and I scored some free samples. Go me.

Well, and I also got a way friggen cool CG animation program that's been used and approved by a couple guys at Pixar that I nabbed for a $50 show special price... (I'll show it off later after I get home and install it.)

I really wanted to check out the AVN portion of the show, but having my father in tow made that a little too uncomfortable for me. However, next year, I am SOOOOOO there while he's off looking at TVs.

Tomorrow's agenda is the central and south halls of the main convention center, where I'll get to play with fun stuff like cameras, games, etc.

Go DP!

Silly me, I'm just so happy with my newly installed photoshop elements 6.0 compared to those with skill, I'm a babe inthe woods!

Have fun! Oh, and not to derail, I'm voting every day!

You have GOT to get your priorities straight!

I once went to not one, but TWO strip clubs with my FIL (and his brothers). WAY uncomfortable.

Because you've been so dutiful about reading up on all the breaking tech news from CES, we bring you some fun stuff that won't change your life, say, like Bluetooth connectivity, but is guaranteed to make you popular at the water cooler.

1) Michael Douglas is still sexy. (XStreamHD’s press-only conference.)

2) The Pussycat Dolls, who performed at the Microsoft party at the popular "Pure" nightclub are just hookers with musicial aspirations. Oh, everyone already knew that?

3) Yoko Ono and Sony recording artists Natasha Bedingfield, will.i.am from the Black Eyed Peas and Pat Monahan of Train unveiled an all new John Lennon Educational Tour Bus at an invitation only press reception . Bedingfield also performed later that evening. Do you get the connection to CES? Me neither.

4) Kevin Costner and his band played at the reception. Kevin, don't give up your day job. Meanwhile, Mary J. Blige knocked everyone's socks off at the Monster Cable Monster Concert.

5) My favorite Indy race car driver (alright, alright, because she's a woman)-- and 2005 Indianapolis 500 Rookie of the Year -- Danica Patrick, raced into the GoDaddy.com booth on Monday. The Danica Maniacs were out in full force.

See, all gossip you were dying to know and not a GB in site.

Work is not bad... I got into IAAPA because of "work" and i scored a lot of free samples there... and attraction pamphlets and such.

I cannot wait to see what you get to create with the CG program.
