Ain't technology grand. I can now bring you grainy, distant photos, taken by my cell phone. This one from the governor's press conference this morning. While he was talking, those pushing for universal hospital coverage were in the next room singing. It was a little surreal.
Microscopically in the distance is Administration Secretary Mike Smith, who probably would have preferred spending the time preparing the governor's budget proposal, due out Jan. 22.
Gov. Jim Douglas said he's still preparing his State of the State address, trying to trim it down and punch it up. He'll be giving that tomorrow at 2 p.m. And lucky you, you will be able to tune in to vt.Buzz for some live blog action with Free Press icon Candy Page.
Douglas said his address will focus on "rethinking how we do business as a state."
