What’s coming up by your CyberPal and E-Visions Multimedia!
Another day, another…
Night without sleep.
I did another all-nighter….
(Memo2Me: The alarm clock is *NOT* a sign to go to bed!)
Besides catching up with work I didn’t get to finish over the weekend I was busy making Poser props.
1) A window that opens and closes, and a latch that locks & unlocks.
2) Door that opens and closes.
Drop me a line if you want me to email them to you.
Why do I do this to myself?????
*pops more vivarins and gets ready for work…*
Pocono People: Kitty Jones
I had the honor of featuring my dear friend, Kitty Jones in Pocono
Life today. Every week, the Pocono Record picks someone, and features them in a section called “Pocono People”. (Last week featured one of the many constables that have tried to arrest Carole over the last few months, but let’s not open that can of worms, ok?)
When the Tribe called Brooks was stranded in Stroudsburg (as usual, thanks to the vehicle we lovingly refer to as “THE DEATHMOBILE”), Kitty was there for us, with her tour van, to get us home safe & sound.
She puts on a phenomenal one-woman show called “Kit’s Kaboodle“, bringing in audience members to play various parts, and she does this all across the PA, N.J and N.Y area. (Click Here for her Show Dates)… it’s really incredible, you’ve gotta catch one of her shows.
The article is here, and her biography (bet you didn’t know she was in “As The World Turns“) is here.
I met Kitty when she hired us to redesign www.kitskaboodle.com at the Pocono Record, btw….
The Legacy of Tocks Island Dam
Looking for some riveting reading this weekend? Check out The Legacy of Tocks Island Dam. This story has it all: Natural disasters, death & destruction, our Government going to extremes: taking homes and land by any means necessary, land owners committing suicide as their land is taken away, hippie protests, and the origin of the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area.
It also features photos that never made it to print, courtesy of The Monroe County Historical Society and the U.S. Department of the Interior.
It was a three day series, that ran in the Pocono Record last week, and now it’s online. I’ve gotta admit that I really didn’t get a chance to read this until I put it together online this weekend… and it is MIND-BLOWING! Full of history that us New Yorkers moving in never knew. Go check it out, I’ll wait.

Mother’s Day Tribute on E-TV
Is now live, and will be running throughout the month of May.
Thanks to a lot of people for their help.
Now I’ve got to get a few hours sleep so I can help the kids form some sort of a slightly burnt/barely edible breakfast for their mommy in the morning.
Have a great one, ladies… you deserve it. :0)
Casting Call For Mother’s Day
Send me pics guys…
All this week I’m putting a special “Mother’s Day Tribute” together for E-TV debuting next Saturday night at 11:59 PM Sharp.
I just got permission from Jumpin’ Jeff Walker to use his “The Mommy Song” (Featuring BoyzIIMen and cute little kids narrating) to make a montage of your photographs.
I’m getting a really nice turnout as I announced it on MetaFilter’s new [mefi-projects] mailing list…. and WHUZZUPDATE!
Send pics of you & your Mom, your wife & kids, you and grandma… basically, someone in that pick has to be a mom, okay?
First come, first served… of course I will play favorites, reserve the right to reject anyone…. yadda yadda yadda….</legalese>

Whoah!!!!
Did any one else’s referrer logs go nuts as Zeldman declared “Happy Friday” on K10K.net, and wrote a list of sites he was grateful for????
Holy crap, and just how much traffic does k10k get anyway?!!???
A very pleasant surprise as I was one of the many sites plugged on Friday, and I wanted to thank The Great One sooner, but I have been so damn busy.
Launched a new site with the Pocono Record’s new webhosting service, The Bridal Guide went live to the public, and I had to tweak/rewrite a few CGI scripts for the database-driven Scholastic Sports, Eastern Poconos Community News and the Pocono Property Showcase that premiered this morning.
And that was just Friday.
Today, I was slaving away at redesigning a very talented actresses’ site (details to follow).
Thankz Z-Man!!!! Your plug was most appreciated and a great topper for an excellent week!
