After another highly scientific method of jotting down everyone’s names, cutting them out on equally sized pieces of paper, throwing the stack into the air and letting them fall to the floor scattered around, taking a penny from approximately 10 feet away and tossing it onto the floor in that direction, and picking up the paper that the penny stopped closest to, the penny has chosen ‘prudence’ as the winner. Prudence, please check your email for instructions on how to …

Finally got the audio (and video) from last weeks Town Talk.  The town talk audio on the WIZS website was having issues with the volume going up and down.  I’ve coupled the audio to my own video from my digital camera, and tried to level out the audio halfway decently.   You’ll still notice volume changes, but this is the best I could do with what I have.  Especially towards the end, the WIZS audio is missing all together, leaving just …

We’d like to thank everyone for trying to be patient during our downtime.  A few people started a few conversations on our facebook, and we have received numerous emails inquiring when are we coming back?!   We’re terribly sorry for the website down time, however things unexpected happened rather quickly and we were forced to play catch up.  We have been busy redesigning what you see here, from what you can see on your screen to behind the scenes as well.  …
