Happy New Year from “the BLOG”.

I was invited to the AMG Preview Night at this year’s LA Auto Show, where the brand-spanking new SLS AMG was unveiled. Four-time SCCA Trans-Am Champion Tommy Kendall as well as some of AMG’s top brass were on hand to do the honors. This new iteration of the 300SL contains a hand-built V8, pumping out 563 hp and a seat-stuffing 479 ft-lbs of torque. The presenters were pretty tight-lipped when asked about the electric version, the SLS eDrive, but it’s nice to know that AMG and Mercedes-Benz are thinking about the environment as well.

AFTRA put on a great seminar tonight about, well, acting success now. Moderators were Robert and Michelle Colt, and panelists were casting director Terry Berland, acting coach Tim Phillips, and actor Tara Strong. This was a great seminar with dashes of “The Secret”. Lots of great advice!

My homies at Teruo Artisty put on an awesome display tonight, with original oil paintings by TTW, and music by Brian “Deep” Watters, Prophet, Six Reasons, and Terra Incognita. Always a good time.
