Every week, we expend more energy than we'd care to admit pulling together all the fun nuggets of wonderfulness that make up the FBLA Media Events calendar.

But why do it, when LAT publisher/blogger David Hiller is clearly eager to get in the game?

On Friday he wrote up this blog post for his staff:
