My favorite (kind-of) Freeman videos of 2010

And here are my favorite videos produced or edited by yours truly this year. This is what happens when you give a crazy camera and crazy software to a crazy person.


2011 is going to be a great year.

* Rhinebeck's Suzanna Hermans notes that primaries are massive voter mobilizers, as in they're mobilized to not vote at all.

Yikes! Only 186 people have voted at my polling place today. For shame. There's still time! Polls close at 9pm.less than a minute ago via Twitter for iPhoneSuzanna Hermans

The Drangoneers, however, do not warn you that re-tweeting your employer's tweets only makes the posts seem more popular in an artificial way. Which reminds me:

* My employer, the Daily Freeman, tweets. A lot.

Crazy, shameless pundit talks about Chelsea, Rhinebeck on WAMC. Shame on him

I was on the National Public Radio's affiliate WAMC-FM this morning talking to David Guistina on "Morning Edition" about why in the world anybody would talk to me about anything, and other things that start with "Rhinebeck."

Here's the clip.



Apparently, I have an accent. I'll give you five (Monopoly) bucks if you can translate what I've said.

Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome's flights are on

The Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome just announced that Saturday's air show featuring flying antique airplanes of the pioneer and barnstorming era will take place as planned at 2 p.m.

Temporary flight restrictions over Rhinebeck for something that's apparently happening in there "will be respected by re-routing biplane air tours away from the restricted area during the ... period between 3 p.m. on Saturday through 3:30 a.m. on Sunday morning," said Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome Vice President Don Fleming in a news release. "The 2 p.m. World War I Air Show and biplane rides on Sunday will not be affected at all."

“But folks signing up for a biplane ride on Saturday should not expect to be treated to a birds-eye-view of the Clinton-Mezvinski nuptials,” Fleming said.

Wait! What wedding?
