Felt it went okay. Really drowsy from the allergies. Questions were mostly statements. Clearly, the anti-Bushism revives a lot of latent distrust and dislike of U.S. military (the hate emails already pour in). But I had a lot of fun being back on with Lamb after three years.

Even with the delay due to tech problems (I finally told the local booth guy to leave his mike on to my ear and I'd simply listen from the feed by relay--difficult but it worked). There were two TVs astride the camera, which tempted me throughout (not sure how much my eyes darted): left one showed me all the time (local feed) and right one showed the C-SPAN output (which allowed me to realize when I was on the screen and to check out the photos as much as I could).

Kevin, along for the ride (we got up early at my mother-in-law's and drove to the Speedway studio from Terre Haute), appeared on screen to the surprise of the DC studio people as we checked out the set before the show. They called me on my cell to confirm I was on the scene, figuring he was my kid.

BTW, I shot it in shorts and hiking boots, so Lamb's bit about interrupting my family vacation was accurate.
