I don’t mean to keep leading you on, really. I was all packed and ready to go with a podcast recording tonight. Just one last task – to create the photo wall backdrop for our NORML Conference media room. Had to be turned in tonight, so fix that up real quick…
…and of course, this would be the time my computer goes on the fritz. The studio PC, that is, which is the only machine where I have my Adobe CS3 software that includes Illustrator for making that huge 8′ x 10′ graphic. So I troubleshoot and fix the problem and get the machine booted up and build the graphic and FTP it off to San Francisco. Great. Now just sync up my BlackBerry one last time before I record the show…
…and of course, the BlackBerry Desktop Manager picks this time to crash in the middle of a sync operation, wiping out the data in my BlackBerry address book. This requires a reinstall of the program and moving my Outlook file back to its previous location. Now that’s fixed and my BlackBerry is back…
…which leaves me just enough time to schedule a NORML SHOW LIVE test so that Karri and I can practice her call screening in Astoria while I’m on the road, and then maybe get six hours of sleep before catching the 7:30am flight from PDX to Logan, during which I’ll go through my over 1,200 unread emails from the past two weeks.
But I will have to set up NORML SHOW LIVE in my hotel room in Cambridge, so that will allow me to record a podcast tomorrow for a Boston Freedom Rally preview. I’ll get some of the MassCann guys on the show to tell you all about it. Plenty of tweets, pics, and vids will show up all these next few days, so watch the sidebar.
I have smoked pot in the past and really like it there is no doubt in my mind that it should be legalized. And Definately used as a pain killer for Medical patients. But I would not advocate its use as it burns braincells out like no tommorow and is definately a carbon forming smoke that has tons of Carcinogens in it . I vote to legalize it all the way!!! And to vote against those who aposed the legalization of it. Nice job !!!!!
Russ, you are obviously overloaded. If you can use a gofer while in Boston, just give me shout. Really.
Ya that blackberry desktop is the clunkiest piece of software I’ve ever used.
That sucks, but I’d like to blame Microsoft for this moment of fail. Regardless, thank you Russ for putting so much time into what you’re doing for all of us out here trying to keep our jobs and take care of our families while being responsible cannabis users! Keep up the good fight!
