Social networking informed me of another very unfortunate accident in skiing this evening. I have been obtaining information on Sarah Burke’s half pipe accident this afternoon at Park City and will hopefully know more soon. My prayers go out to Sarah and her family and our entire industry that continues to evolve at insane levels. The severity of Sarah’s injuries is unknown, but as Kristi Leskinen states… “The situation is very serious”.

I’ve been pooling it out in Desert Mountain for the last couple of days and am finding it hard to leave such a nice little gem in the desert.
Especially now that I have setup an AppleTV on his 72″ LCD and a stronger wireless network to stream music from anywhere – hard place to leave.
Lighting control on the next visit.
Congratulations to Superstar Kristi and Maks and team orange for winning the Superstars on ABC. I feel so fortunate to have skied, trained and partied with a now known superstar.

Watching network television on Mondays was killing me. Thanks for NOT rosing at the last ceremony Bachelor Mark – That opens up my week to start watching Superstar Kristi on ABC Tuesdays.
Superstars is Back – and it’s back on ABC beginning June 23rd, 2009.
The only reason I really care is not because it features sports heros and celebrities teamed together to compete for something of extreme value… but because another good friend is going to reach network television superstardom.
Congratulations Kristina Leskinen on hopefully kicking some Terrell Owens / Bode Miller / Jennifer Capriati / Brandi Chastain (think soccer + sports bra) and other sudo celebrity / superstar asses.
