Hi everyone! I hope all is well. Just wanted to let you know that Bobby and I are both coming in for Turkey Day. We get in Monday night and leave Sunday night, so hopefully that allows enough time for more than a few rendezvous. Looking forward to catching up with all of you! Who will be in town? Obviously, there will be leftovers at the Kelly house. :-)
Love,
Lisa

Hello friends! Jon and I finally have some good news to share with all of you...we are going to be parents! Our baby is due February 7, 2007, which seems so very far away, but I'm sure the time will pass quickly. We will have our first ultrasound tomorrow to see if everything is growing properly so we are excited to see our little embryo :) We are probably going to set up a website for the baby to share updates and pictures, once we have it set up it will likely be baby.smajda.com, but we'll let you all know.
We'll be home this coming weekend, June 15-18, but will not be home again until September. We'd love to see you all over Christmas but we probably won't be home until after the 25th.
Hope you are all doing well. We are so excited to share this news with all of you and can't wait to meet our little one in 7 1/2 months!
Love,
Teresa and Jon

Hey loop diggers,
I hope you are doing well. Now that I again have email at my house, I have been checking the 'blog' more frequently and have decided we just don't post enough! Anyway, mostly, I wanted to let you know that I'll be in KC May 20-28...if you are going to be around, let me know, I'd love to hang out one night.

So I caught KGarb on IM last night and he told me he thought of us recently because he was at the Adams Mark in St. Louis. He reported back that "The anatomically correct horse is still in the lobby. As well as the warm nude showers sign at the pool. Good memories." Thought I'd share that with y'all.

I told Bobby and Chris about this over break and I don't think they believed me:
You're In Control (or UrineControl).
This is a project of my advisor's son, a PhD student in Computer Science at Stanford. Watch the video.

Guys- try this -- it's kind of freaky. I normally don't get into stuff like this but I thought it was pretty smooth.

Scott Stapp and 311 Brawl
Former Creed frontman gets in tussle with L.A. rockers in Baltimore
At Baltimore's Harbor Court Hotel on Thanksgiving night, members of Los Angeles rockers 311, on a day off from their national tour, got into a fist fight with former Creed frontman Scott Stapp, in town to promote his solo debut, The Great Divide. 311 singer S.A. Martinez suffered a fractured knuckle as a result of the brawl, which the band says Stapp started.
"We had just finished dinner and were at the hotel bar to watch the Lakers game when Scott Stapp walked in being very loud and obnoxious," Martinez tells Rolling Stone. "In fact, one of the first things he said was that he loved to fight. So he started doing shots and breaking the glass on the bar, almost hitting one of our crew guys. My wife and I moved to a table and eventually Scott made his way over and sat down. He was looking for attention. Even before that, he had wadded up a napkin that he lobbed in our direction. It was pathetic, and we tried to ignore him, but it was impossible. Then he made a pretty disrespectful comment to my wife, which I'd rather not repeat, but in no uncertain terms, the word 'fuck' was used. That's when [drummer] Chad [Sexton] walked over."
"I had run into Scott that day," says Sexton. "We have some things in common, like the same producer, and we chatted for a few minutes. So knowing we got along earlier, I kindly asked him not to disrespect anybody and reminded him that we're all friends. That's when he sucker-punched me -- hit me right in the face."
"When Scott punched Chad," adds Martinez, "in the follow-through, he hit my wife so then I threw my punch. I think the last time I got into a fight was in the third grade, but it was an instant reaction on my part. [311 bassist] P-Nut also came over and he got sucked into it, opening up a scar on his right arm from a recent surgery. Scott went down, and his girl came over and sat on him to get him to stop, but he got up, enraged, still wanting to fight. After about five minutes, hotel security finally broke it up and kicked him out. Honestly, the hotel was really at fault for not kicking him out when he threw the first shot glass."
Later that night, Martinez went to a local hospital to treat what's called a "boxer's fracture." His right hand is now in a cast, but he was able to perform the following day in Baltimore. "It was different, because I'm used to holding the mike in that hand," he says. "Thankfully, I can still bust a move."
Ironically, before the situation escalated, Stapp had told the members of 311 that he was a fan, according to Martinez. "He was telling us how he'd been to a show of ours in Florida, where he got up on stage, and that he was so thankful that we didn't kick him off," says the singer. "He was saying, 'You had no idea that you guys being so cool to me would inspire me to start a band, and for me to sell 30 million records, win a Grammy, VMAs, Billboard Awards . . .' He just went on and on, like some drunk guy who wouldn't shut the fuck up, while we just wanted to watch the game."
In the end, 311 insist they were acting in self-defense and, according to Sexton, have gone public as a response to rumors to "tell what really happened that so there's no misinformation out there . . . We're very positive people. We've preached positivity on every record we've made. We don't have altercations like this ever. And we even wish Scott well."
For Stapp, this is not the first such incident. In April of 2001, while a member of Creed, he was involved in a bar brawl in St. Augustine, Florida. Witnesses told Rolling Stone at the time that Stapp threw a punch at a man who had taunted him.
When contacted by Rolling Stone, Stapp's representative had no comment on the Baltimore altercation. And according to the Baltimore police department, no charges have been filed.
