It's about 1:30 as I write this, but I'm still not quite adjusted to the time change, so it feels much later as everyone here in the Fox media tent waits for the 'Battle of the Davids' to get underway.  We're just putting the finishing touches on our reports for the 5 and 6 o'clock news... in a few minutes we'll start trying to figure out a plan for 9 and 10.  Fox is very good about trying to bring special guests to the spots where the reporters are doing their live reports, so tune in because you never know who you might see.

Okay, now I'm going to say something that may make some people back home angry, or possibly cause them to think I'm crazy (most people who know me already think I'm a little goofy, so that's not much of a stretch I suppose).  Since we've set up in the tent Monday afternoon, we've turned down tickets to tonight's finale not once, but twice.  The good people at Fox have been walking by and asking the different affiliates if they'd like some tickets to the show, and we've had to tell them no, thanks both times.

Like I said, I feel pretty stupid saying no... but those nine and ten newscasts come up pretty quick, and if we were unprepared because we were hanging out in the Nokia Theater, we'd probably have some 'splaining to do to the bosses when we got back home.  So, we'll be checking out the show here in the garage, er, media center.  It's not so bad, really.  They've got the show projected on a wall, coffee, water, and I think I even saw a big container of Twizzlers.  Mmmmm, Twizzlers...
