Happy Holidays to everyone on the Laporte Report list! (If you'd

I'll be on the Allan Handelman show for half an hour tonight at 10:30p
Eastern time. Listen on one of his many stations or on his web site at
http://www.alhandelman.com

I'm doing the Ronn Owens Show on KGO, 810 AM in San Francisco, Friday,
January 3 at 10am. http://www.kgo810am.com

The Screen Savers are heading to Las Vegas to cover CES January 9-11.
I'll be signing autographs in the Grand Lobby of the Las Vegas
Convention Center from 4-5p on Thursday, January 9, and from 3-5p on
Saturday, January 11. Cat, Morgan, and Patrick will be there, too, at
various times. We'll also be doing live show feeds for The Screen
Savers, Friday, January 10, at 4p Pacific. You don't need admission to
CES to visit us, so stop by our booth in the main entrance of the
convention center. You know how we love a live audience!

Meanwhile, I've been doing some Tivo hacking during my vacation, with
some interesting (and ultimately disappointing) results. I'll do a
full write up on my blog, http://www.leoville.com/blog , in the next
couple of days.

We're celebrating Christmas at home then Jennifer is taking the kids
to her folks for a few days. That should give me some time to work on
the Tivo more seriously. The goal is to be able to get my Sopranos
episodes onto DVD as a fully digital copy. If I can get it to work,
and I can get the lawyers to say OK, I'll demo it on TSS in the new year.

Thanks for your support in 2002. Best wishes for a peaceful and joyous
2003!
