Between changing diapers, trying to put my daughter to sleep, and writing a research paper on Hawthorne and Melville, I think my head is going to explode!

To add fuel to the fire, people are now emailing me about topics in Danbury that I should report about, asking why I don't criticize Democrats as much as Republicans (trust me, check the archives and read what I said about Dean Esposito back during he last campaign and get back to me on that), and the always popular "can you do a write-up about me on your blog"


ENOUGH ALREADY!

Okay, maybe it's me but I'm wiped out. Having a month old daughter who acts just like her daddy (trust me, this isn't a good thing) can drive you nuts. Hell, I still have to get my X-Mas tree from Stew's. I need a break so this is what I'm going to do.

Remember how I said back when I started this blog that I've been collecting video and audio material on anything Danbury related for the last three to four year? Well, I think since it's coming to the end of the year, it would be nice to start and roll out some of that good ol' footage. From now until the end of the year, in between my usual posts, I'm going to do a few flashback videos that I haven't posted here yet. Some stuff might shock you as I'm sure people are going to say "oh man, I didn't know he was there videotaping me say that..." and some videos will be pretty informative.

In the end, the stuff on this site is all about the stuff I see everyday in this great city. Since I recorded so much stuff, I should give everyone a early X-Mas present and post some of my stuff. It will make my life a little easier also since I don't have to do much reporting in my posts and I can devote more time to the baby formula monster.

PLEASE, if you want me to do a story on you or have a business you want to promote, send me an email now at hatcityblog@yahoo.com. I'm not doing ANY feature stories (i.e. resturants, business, charity organization) now but I will get into gear starting in January. If you drop me a line now, we can set something up for next month.


Okay, that's it. I think my daughter has a present in her diaper for me and by the smell of things, this won't be pretty :-(

BTW: Eugene, in regards to your latest News-Times polls, by far the best Eddie Murphy comedy was Trading Spaces. I wouldn't consider 48 Hours a comedy and although Shrek was great, you simply can't beat that performance he gave with Dan Akroyd.

When it comes to X-Mas movies, I can watch A Christmas Tale Story all day while I only think about the movie Ford Fairlane when I watch It's a Wonderful Life (I dare anyone to get the connection). In any case, neither of those movies can compare with any of the old Christmas cartoons and I can't wait to watch every one of them with my kid when she grows up (so I won't look goofy watching and singing along to them alone).

Hat tip to the guy on the bike...he knows why.
