Seriously, how cool is this?? Sadly though, it's two hours long which at SX is a VERY long time to be at one event.

Sigh. I need to stop reading things about SXSW or I'm going to become completely inconsolable about the fact that I won't be there.
Jarvis? Really? ARGGGH!
Uh I know, I heard that from Justin last night. What's up with that super-crazy talk?? Those kids could last 4 days without you Professor Neas...besides I thought there was drinking to be done??? :)
They could, I suppose, but my wallet couldn't last it. I'll owe you a beer the next time I see you. :)
