bonny, Pork Chop sounds (and looks!) wonderful, and I hope his foster person is agreeable to a trial weekend idea.

ION, holy crap. I am (kinda sorta) using my degree. For possibly the first time ever. Sure, I'm only editing the "radio show" in Audacity, but this is me, using some sort of audio mixing tools!

(I have an Associates in Audio Engineering that I never did anything with, because in the early 90s in Seattle, there were no jobs, just unpaid internships, and there were ESPECIALLY no letting you get near the sound board -internships if you were female. I would have been stuck making coffee and looking decorative. I decided I didn't have the energy for that fight, and thus never worked in the industry.)

Jilli is one of us!!!! Woot!!!

Yep, I keep trying to get her to come and work on Halloween with us.

Kind of loving Jilli more than the Universe right now, and wanting her to come work on audio projects with us.

Jilli, come down here and be in the Ode to the Sound Designer that I wrote.

Spending time fighting with Audacity has shown me HOW rusty (or non-existent!) my sound skills are. But one of these years, I will come work on Halloween with you.

Hee! Oh, that would be fun.

Insent for your enjoyment.

Yaaay! And thank you! But I will read it in the morning (what I call morning), because I have hit a wall, and need to go take a bath and zone out. I will finish editing the GCS radio show tomorrow, and see if I need to record any segues.

PC had some excellent technical support with the Ode. Doo eeeet Jilli!!

As for Audacity. Yeah, you will be fighting it. Its good software for its price. But if you want a piece of software that is more intuitive, you'll pay for it. But when you are using it all the time, it's worth it's weight in gold plated latnum.

I did indeed! Couldn't have done it without you, man! Thanks again. I can't wait to see how it turns out. And my Ode to the Concessions is going to be flipping hilarious with the director and cast it's got. It's funny because I had a specific actor in mind for the main role, but someone else read it at the first meeting, and he brought it to life in such an unexpectedly perfect way that we all basically agreed that he had to do it.
