Here's the closing video from our winter conference, which starts with the dramatic balloon battle between myself and John Rozzelle. Just in case the video doesn't work right on my site, here's the link.
As you can see, it was a great conference.
And I know what you are asking yourself and I will answer you: John and I were completely unscripted as MCs. There is a writer's strike going on, people.

Happy New Year
I just want to celebrate another year of living.
New Year's Resolution: Eat more, exercise less. Because there has to be a balance.
It was a good New Year's event. Memorable moments:
1) John Rozzelle and "Pops" the puppet making up after a big fight and singing "That's What Friends Are For" to one another.
2) A powerful message from Crawford Loritts. You can see it for yourself below. If you watch carefully you can see me sneaking away before he gets started. (UPDATE: Rumors reach me that the embedded video below isn't working, so you can also check it out here).
3) A kiss from my wife at midnight.
4) As I walked from the hotel back to the conference center to rock in the New Year with the band Eightsweek, a drunken reveler hung out of a window in an apartment building. He brandished in one hand a bottle of champagne. I said happy new year to him, and he happily hoisted his bottle and shouted, "OPEN YOUR MOUTH!" I politely said no thanks and he said, "C'MON, OPEN YOUR MOUTH AND I WILL POUR CHAMPAGNE IN IT!" No, thanks. "OPEN YOUR MOUTH!" He demanded. I gave his window a wide berth. He called a disappointed happy new year after me and returned to his party.
5) Watching 600 people face off in a Rock, Paper, Scissors competition. The winner gave perhaps the finest victory speech I have heard in recent history when he thanked "My Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, Master Illusionist Kriss Angel, and my Mom." It was arguably one of the greatest moments of the conference.
Overall, a very fine New Year.

Our 800th Post: In Which Masterpiece Theatre Answers Your Questions
In honor of the 800th post here at BHR, we are proud to present "Masterpiece Theatre Answers Your Questions," our fourth video podcast, brought to you by the fine people at the GNW winter conference: Masterpiece.
My good friend Brad Pitt agreed to make a cameo in honor of this being our 800th post.
The sock puppoet, however, has gotten too big for his stitches, saying "I'm famous now and there's no reason for me to make an appearance on your tiny little blog, you tiny little man." I washed his mouth out with detergent.
