Oh do tell! Man that sounds like a Jarmusch subplot to me. Did she have hairy pits?? :twisted:

Unfortunately she wasnt's teaching french IV, so i had to change my major from a BA to a BS and take geology...

No hairy armpits though she was very fashionable. She wasn't french either, just taught the class and knew ton of other languages..

So are you here to talk about audio, or to blather on about anything but?

I believe it was you who called me a twit, sir. So I shall allow you the honor of answering that question.

I think you ought to sit down at the console and then yell in a real loud voice.." Wow, what do all these buttons do?"....

That should crack up everyone....





Nah, good luck, I think once you spend a few minutes familiarizing the layout you should do fine....

I just recently took the assistant position at a 88 input 8k ssl room here in D-town.
I and my pal Chemicalpink was originally brought in to wire the room then I get the job after getting the wiring done.My first week was nerveracking ,but if you step in there with an open mind to what the assistant might suggest it will run a lot smoother .
There is nothing I hate worse is a client who might not be ready to run that kind of room and won't admit it to him or herself that is the case.Thtat does not permit a possitive working emviroment.I, like jeff and any other engineer that has ran a ssl room can attest to this.
Be communicative and polite to the assistant and shit will go well and you won't waste some bands money.
As far as not being used to the monitors there at that room.Take your own monitors in, if that permits. Also take in a boom box that you are used to to refernce the mixes on. Relax and let people who are used to the room help you.

Ah, a classic variation on "I know you are, but what am I?". Please, I've been on the Internet since 1987 or so, so if you want to argue with me you'll have to do a lot better than that.

I don't care if you invented the goddamn internet! Of course, that would make you Al Gore. Nice talking with you Mr. President. No seriously, when did I ever insult you? If you've got a beef with me, fine, but stick to the facts, OK? Whether I am a twit or not and your thoughts on my intelligence have nothing to do with the subject matter at hand. So, if you'd care to discuss, I'm all ears. But if you're gonna call me a twit again or take issue with my intelligence, I'll kindly suggest that you eat a big bowl of dicks. And if you ARE gonna crack back at someone - for fuck's sake man, BRING IT! TWIT? That's the best you can do????

"Eat a big bowl of dicks"?

Geez, how old are you, 14 or 15? Well, hopefully we'll be rid of you when school starts back up.

"Eat a big bowl of dicks" is pretty good.
