My ears are full of cooking oil.
There is a perfectly good reason for this. We don't have any eardrops.
Yesterday I was trying to design a sound like the synth-strings at the start of Shine on You Crazy Diamond, but no matter what I did, it sounded muffled and crap.
After an hour I took a break and put on some music. Which also sounded muffled and crap. The little grey cells told me there might be a connection, and after sluicing out my ears with warm water - which turned a notably darker shade - my Crazy Diamonds regained some of their shine.
So with luck tomorrow I'll be able to hear a pin drop on a fur rug in a thunderstorm in Saskatchewan. But in the meantime you'll have to shout.
I said...You'll Have To Shout!
I read in other blogs that the secret to blogging success is to post little but often. Lots of short, snappy articles, and a new one at least every day.
Of course, I read this in blogs that don't have many readers, but maybe I should give it a go. Just not today.
I've had my 12,000th visit. But I don't know who the visitor was.
They were in Brighton in the UK on September 27th. They're running Opera 9.52 under XP with Javascript 1.4, running a monitor with a resolution of 1024x768 and 32-bit colour depth. Their ISP is Easynet, and they were looking for info on the Dillfrog Rhymer - a sadly defunct rhyme-finding tool for songwriters, which I helped design three years ago.
Who were you, mystery man?
Question from a student on Tuesday:
How do you know your mystery man was a man? He might have been a she. Or indeed an elf, come unto this mortal realm for a bit of Brightonesque how's your father.
ReplyDeleteTeacher, which kind of Christianity is true?'
ReplyDeleteAw, shit.
"Lots of short, snappy articles, and a new one at least every day"...
