The Emmy's

The evening was very nice with WGN picking up several awards including one for our very own, Ana Belaval, for her "One Tank Trip" reports. Now she can balance her new daughter, Amelia, in one arm and her statue in the other. BTW, Ana looks great. She'll be back toward the end of December.

The highlight of the evening was Jeff Garlin of "Curb Your Enthusiasm" who was smart and just sarcastic enough for this jaded crowd. The crowning moment of the evening when Fox's Larry Yellin attempted a joke from the podium and felt it necessary to say that the stage "added 40 pounds to Jeff's weight." Jeff yelled from back stage that he didn't give a S***. The crowded responded with uproarious applause to Garlin's shutting down Yellin's rude remark.

When Jeff returned to the stage, he talked about how funny he thought it was how some people are "just "D*****Bags" for saying something like that. And then, really summed it up by saying "who is that guy, anyway?"

Can you run Ana's ONE TANK TRIP for which she won an award. Congratulations to her and to the people who hired her for this job. She's tops.

I've missed her. Glad to know she'll be back at the end of Dec.

Good ole Dean pitched in today dressed as a turkey over at the turkey hotline. You've got some real show people who go where they asked (or assigned) and get involved to present a good feature. Dean's statement to the phone caller there about going with lasagna instead of turkey was perfect.

My sister and I watch WGN morning news everyday..We are wondering when baby pics of Val and Ana's newbies will be on the site? WE MISS YOU GUYS! We hope that you are well and enjoying motherhood.
