Ok, more things I've been forgetting to post over the last few entries:
Barnes and Noble sent me a catalog. That made me really excited (especially since there are coupons!), and I've been having a great time reading through it.
A few people were asking about the completed HansoExposed video. Basically, over the summer, ABC produced this website where you could track down different video fragments and put them together to get some of the back story about the Hanso Corporation, funders of the Dharma Initiative. This video is all the fragments (embedded at my site, linked on LJ):
I also mentioned the installation of the 26th president Bishop of the Episcopal Church, and you can watch the entire service here. It is long (over two and a half hours), but worth watching (for the massive amounts of fabric alone…oh yeah, and the ecumenical and spiritual importance as well). Quick briefing: Presiding Bishop is like a Catholic Cardinal, but there is only one in a country, and Bishop Katherine Schori (Bishop Katherine is what she likes to be called) is the first woman ever to serve in the position. The opening music is really good too, and I think it's fairly soon after she comes in the door that the dancers around the baptismal font start to do their thing.
I was at the Alumni road show yesterday, and it was a big success, made some new contacts and had some really good conversations (and they served sushi, only one type, and I roll my sushi much better, which was disappointing, but still good).
