Spike's Bitches 36: Did I Sully Our Good Name?  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

My topic is Oral History as Literature. A section of it will be a portion of an oral history of my step-grandma.

Sounds very cool! (And also like something that shouldn't require IRB - not as though you're experimenting on her!)

I'd be very interested to hear what kind of history/background/etc. you come up with. I was just talking about this (not precisely this, but you know) with my Dad the other night. Though he insisted on my being raised Catholic, he doesn't really believe in God, and definitely not the Bible (it's an Irish Culture thing, whatev - being raised Catholic, that is, not not believing), so he sometimes takes minor issue that with me the whole Bible Thing "took". One of his objections was that for however long, the Gospels were "oral tradition" and not written down 'til (however many) years later. I pointed out that if Oral History was your tradition, you'd probably take some care to Get It Right, much like we would with written, as that's our standard.

Anyway, very timely, your project. Sounds like a lot of fun.

Our wings are not tired

I'm taking a guess here ND, but in most situations it seems the smaller jobs are not only less pay, but more work because there is less qualified support. The bigger jobs pay more and are often less effort and stress. You certainly deserve a bit of reward. A few hours here and there to enjoy the fruits of your labor wouldn't be a bad thing either.

Yep, that's pretty accurate. The pay is higher and the support is better. The downside is that the stakes are always higher, so you need to always have a cool head even when everything is falling down around you. Apparently that's the reputation that I've got in the industry right now. It's a very good rep to have.

Cleveland, Ohio? I'm sure there are. Best bet would be the Coventry area.

Hey, are there any kind of hipsterish record stores in the Cleveland area?

What keeps coming up in my search is Record Revolution, which doesn't have a website, but is in Coventry.
