My blogging as of late has been absolutely piss poor.  So to make me feel better, I clicked on over to Guthrie Corporation’s Big Blue Blog.  It did the trick.

Take a look at some of the riveting news that LeeH recently broke:

“It was announced earlier this week that a South Dakota company (Daktronics) will be replacing the LED towers that sit atop our roof.

What happened to the old ones? I suppose there are many theories, but frankly I’m not actually sure what happened. Only one of the three has been operational as of late, so everyone here is thrilled that they will all soon be back to their text scrolling selves again.

…and the best part of the whole deal: the new ones are green. Not literally, but figuratively. Since they are LEDs they use less power than a traditional light (or so the engineer told me).”

Well, I think I can speak for everyone here at FringeFamous when I say “holy fucking shit”.  I had to take a 20-minute nap after LeeH dropped that knowledge bomb on me.  Insight like that is exactly why I frequent the Big Blue Blog.

I’m also super pumped about Guthrie Corporation’s decision to cut down on their energy usage.  Kudos to you, Guthrie Corp.!  Now, if we could only get the other theatres in town to use LEDs on their 40, 60, and 80-foot tall scrolling towers of light…
