The Gear Shift

We’re back at the media center for free breakfast c/o Michelin. (Thank you!)

Last night we went to the Firehouse, which is a museum that used to be an old firehouse (hence the name :-) ) that Chrysler rents out every year. They graciously provide free, good food to all the media folks every night and, even better, free drinks!

We had a great time.  Who wouldn’t with an awesome martini bar with all the fruity and sweet choices you could possibly imagine? (My choices: pineapple infused and caramel apple, Chris’ poisons: a regular dirty martini and then a Milky Way one for “dessert”)

And, we hung out with some great people – the on-air talent and crew from ESPN, some from Detroit, most from California, who travel every year to this show and others.  They were gracious enough to share their circle of seats and couches with us - and getting a seat is not easy in that place with the free food & drink! We chatted about the show, our businesses, etc.  (Make sure to watch our new friend Al’s report on the show on ESPN 2 on Feb. 9.)

So, Chrysler, thanks for a fun night! I’m sorry about the bad stuff I said about you before, but even the ESPN folks agreed that your Dodge Ram launch was a bust. :-)
