Breaking News: Hospitalized Reporter....

....recovering at home from being in the hospital all last week. That's why I haven't blogged for 10 days. I'm at home, rebuilding stamina, and hope to be back at The Enquirer next week. Just wanted you folks to know....

Random thoughs while laying in hospital bed:
--Will some hospital somewhere offere w-fi? Or ethernet for patients? The limited cable lineup wouldn't be so limited if I could see the Daily Show on a laptap.... or check email instead of watching "NYPD Blue" reruns or Fox News repeating the same old snooze all day...

So what did I miss?
--Saw that John Phillips has been bumped from Ch 12 traffic in favor of Bob Herzog, former Ch 64 movie host. They wanna do in-studio traffic and map. So Phillips lost his helicopter 13 months ago, and now his TV gig.
--WNKU now podcasting. Go to NKU.org for downloads. One of the guys behind this is George Zahn, the former WVXU-FM wiz who joined WNKU after Xavier sold station.
--Saw our story today that WOXY.com will start charging for service, ala satellite and cable.
--Saw that "Commander in Chief" being knocked off the air in March for new ABC sitcom, the one fictionally set in Hamilton, called "Sons & Daughters." It's mostly unscripted. Waiting to get my review DVDs. "Commander in Chief" back in April. My guess is that Steven Bochco still trying to figure out how to make this work. Only so many presidential crisis can involve the Speaker of the House......
--Yeah, I watched the Super Bowl game and commercials. My favorite was stadium placards to pour a bottle of Bud. Laughed out loud, AND remembered who made it. Can't say same for Diet Pepsi recording albums & making movie with Jackie Chan (just remembered the Diet Coke can getting smashed).... Who cares if horses play football, or fusion and 5 blades makes a better shave, or if Burger King ingredients can dance and sing? Some spots were spoiled by seeing "previews" on TV last week. And yeah, I liked the office monkeys again. Funny spot. The rest of the spots were as weak as the Steelers & Seahawks offenses....

Gotta go
I mean it. Just had a colon infection. Really gotta go. Hope to blog more from home this week when I can.
