Got Dem Post-Holiday Blues, Mama...

Hope everybody had a nice Christmas; got a lot of cool toys and stuff.

This has gotta be the absolute worst week of the year; very little happening in the way of broadcast industry news - I'm the kind of person who needs that regular shot of fresh, new information every few minutes or so - and just a general feeling of everything being put on hold.

On the world stage, there's the Bhutto assassination in Pakistan, and the passing of Stu Nahan, the original play-by-play voice of the Philadelphia Flyers, and a TV staple of my childhood.

Other than those sad events, there's a whole lotta nothin' going on. Hurry up, January...
