Awright.. I am still working on Rebecca's website thing that I mentioned a couple days ago. This has taken just way way too long!

KTRU was fun this morning! I played some good tunes, had a couple of good errors, got a funny phone call, and I my last song was a great one by DJ Craze. I listened to it pretty loudly in the headphones and when I went on the air right after the song, SQUEAEEAALEEELL went the feedback. oops! Good thing I was recording my show!

There's a CD by (or called) Proton Accelerator that I reviewed for KTRU. The music wasn't all that amazing, but underneath tracks 8-33, a barely audible spoken word portion spans all the tracks. The tracks themselves are each 65 seconds long of the same guitar riff looped on each track. Back some months ago, my brother sent me a CD that had a similar sound (barely audible vocal under music). On his CD, the music portion on the left channel was the phase inverse of the right channel. Combining the channels made the music sound cancel itself entirely, resulting in clearly audible vocals. Amazing!

I thought the same thing might be true for this CD, but I couldn't make it work the way I thought it should. I emailed them to see if I could get any answers.

Yesterday at work, I got a review/meeting with my bosses. It was great! They are quite ultra pleased with my efforts and expressed desire for me to not leave in April 2001. They asked what type of stuff I would like to focus on; I said more towards programming than network stuff. They recognize the value of having each person work where they feel best capable, so I will begin shifting more towards programming soon! Yippee!!

Today I joined Wende in picking up her Aggie Ring. She was so excited!!!
