iPod Classic, Fantastic!! And NZ/AU content
In prepping for my upcoming trip to NZ and AU I came across my iPod Classic, about 12 years old. It was dead, I plugged it in and recharged it. Everything was still there! I haven't used it in at least ten years. Fantastic, I'm going to take it on the plane and during my tech scout of NZ and AU. I don't won't to use up my iPhone battery listening to music.
I leave Los Angeles at 10:00 PM on this Friday, after going to the UCLA/Stanford game at the Rose Bowl at noon. My wife is driving me to LAX after the game. My Tech scout sucks, on the bus at 7:00 AM and get dropped off at the hotels around 9:30 PM every night in NZ, Nov 28 to Dec 5. Meeting Bill Douglas in Wellington, NZ for meals and a "coaster" moment on Friday 12/5. After that I get a reprieve in Brisbane for the weekend. Hoping to see Fishcop in Brisbane, AU on Saturday 12/6 at a Cars and Coffee thing. Several other AU guys are going to meet me as well on Saturday, and one offered to pick me up and take me to their "Cars and Coffee" thing (not driving on the other side of the road for 40 miles at 6:30 AM is OK with me). Back to Los Angeles on Thursday 12/11. I leave at 10:00 AM Brisbane time on Thursday and arrive at about 10:30 AM on Thursday in LA. I love my job!! I'll post pics when I can.

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE my job. Tech Scouts suck but I travel the World on my employer's buck. I travel Business Class with lay flat beds by Recaro. I'm 60 and can't believe I get paid to travel the World.
Meeting Bill Douglas in Wellington, NZ for meals and a "coaster" moment on Friday 12/5. Business Class to NZ and AU isn't too bad, lay-flat Recaro seats!! I've been to NZ twice, but not AU. Pete's Dragon in NZ and Pirates 5 in AU.
