Well that was really hard. I finally figured out how to make the column with the screen 100px wider. The learning curve has been steep, but I finally think I’ve tweaked this thing just right. I’ve placed some Dubai related videos that I cued up from youtube on automatic rotation that will be stand-in for now until we get things rolling on the webcast. There are about 12 of them that play in order and then if you are there at the right time, you’ll see Elizabeth and I get married in the video that Deborah Hosking shot and that her husband, Randy Kovitz, edited. I’ll replace these videos with other things (perhaps less touristy and more heady) as soon as I can get the right stuff.
Today is Sunday and next week we’ll be landing in Dubai at around this time. It’s really hitting me now. Still have to hook up with Mike to give him the title to the old Ford Explorer. He and Anthony are gonna pimp the shit out of it and drive it fast through mud and jumps or something. Of course we will have live footage here of that. Here’s some interesting footage of the old white whale from 2006:
Movin’ on Up: The Explorer Takes on the Johnstown Incline
This mogulus thing is completely amazing and it would have been very difficult for me to have set the tv thing up on my own. Perhaps impossible. So let’s hope they have staying power. I guess they make their money through advertising since I didn’t have to pay them anything. There is a little box that came up last night about Pittsburgh waterproofing or something, but you can click it away quite easily. In any case, if you have something to advertise, consider supporting them.
Today, Beth and I are heading to the old Allegheny City to take some more photos for the Allegheny Commons website. I hope the weather stays good.
