About to head to #NMX party at Lavo, and wasn’t able to pick up my media badge today. If anyone sees this, please make sure I’m not bounced.

“@PhilipMichaels: Home away from home. pic.twitter.com/oVkYKfKl” ATTN: @adamengst. I want a trailer. And cookies.
- Adam C. Engst:
@jeffporten @philipmichaels You want a windowless cube inside something that can be hauled away at a moment’s notice? I’d stick with cookies
I have enough work to do to easily justify an all-nighter, and a Monday schedule from 8 AM – 1 AM. Decisions, decisions.
Thinking of going to the Blogworld party, but I have to blog first. Not sure if this fits me right in or if I’m the saddest man in Vegas.

- Peter Bright:
I wonder what the TV companies will do when they realize the double upgrade cycle (digital, HD) was a one-off, and that 3D/4K are DOA.
@geoffduncan @drpizza @kvanh actually, something like that is on my pr list for this year.
- Geoff Duncan:
@jeffporten @drpizza @kvanh Uh, errr…then, CES 2014: 3D glasses with built-in EEG sensors for thought-driven channel-changing!
@geoffduncan @drpizza @kvanh there’s a heart monitor that affects music tempo. I’ll see what they have for traffic.
- Shawn King:
Refresh my memory – didn’t Apple at some point in the distant past attend/exhibit at CES? Like in the 1990’s?
@ShawnKing don’t think so. I was here for some of those.
@ShawnKing never saw a show floor booth.
- Lex Friedman:
Do I love that my son now sleeps with my childhood blanket? I do. Do I love that he’s overjoyed at its train? Also yes. pic.twitter.com/gXhDguJj
- Kevin van Haaren:
@lexfri no slanket? Think of the advertising $ you’re missing out on!
@kvanh After the kama sutra book, vendors no longer allowed to sell to @lexfri.

- Philip Michaels:
“At Toby Keith’s, we only serve what we kill. Tonight’s Special: Hippies.”
@PhilipMichaels Are you staying at Harrah’s?
- Philip Michaels:
@jeffporten No, just passing through on my way to other things.
@PhilipMichaels I was there last night, and I’m not sure I’d recognize you in the real world. Buzz me if there’s an IDG kaffeeklatch.
- Patrick Roanhouse:
I’m at Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino (Las Vegas, NV) w/ 44 others http://4sq.com/TV7rVL
@Roanhouse Overslept, will be there shortly.
- Peter Cohen:
I wonder if anyone has ever told Mitch Landrieu “You are not of The Body.” #treknerdhumor
@flargh When the guys with the tubes start lining the sidelines, run like hell.
- Christina Warren:
My feed is so full of RG3 tweets. I had no idea everyone but me watched football. It’s football right?
@film_girl I’ve always assumed that RG3 was the second sequel to an SF flick I missed.
- Louis Rossetto:
Twenty years ago today, we launched Wired — first copies were distributed at MacWorld SF 1993. It certainly has felt like a Bengali typhoon!
.@rossetto @StevenLevy I picked up my first ish at CES 1993.
- Jason Snell:
Time enough at last! #twilightzone
@jsnell You tweeted that to make all of your CES worker bees cry, didn’t you?
- Jason Snell:
@jeffporten No, just to suggest the cab line is post apocalyptic.
- Sharon Hill:
A lofty goal in life is NOT to become like one’s parents. I’ve worked hard at that.
@IDoubtIt I used to do this well, but it all went to hell when I passed 40. More like my Dad every day. Not entirely a bad thing.
Note to self for 2014: thing to bring that was left out of the bag this trip, Provigil. Apparently I can’t pull all-nighters like I used to.
Dream started w/deli with @GeorgeHrab, ended with trebucheting cows at enemy barns. Note: have never eaten with Geo.
