NYC: Day 1

Here's today's rundown:

Information sessions at HBO (the security guard had a total case of the Mondays)

Lunch at Hale and Hearty (delicious split pea with bacon)

More information at HBO including a screening of the pilot for the new show How to Make it in America

Tour of the CNN studios which included running into Suze Orman on her way to an interview with Campbell Brown ("Don't get into credit card debt")

So far, so good.
