Hairy Chin

Last night I was up til really rather late making  new hour opener for my show using Adobe Audition (which used to be Cool Edit Pro - I thought that name sounded better too)

I started making it late in the evening, then went to watch 24 - Jack's on smack in 24, did you see?

So I came back after watching it and finished my bit of audio production work. Then just as I was off to bed, I had a horrible feeling that the music I used has been used for something else on the station. I listened back to the full length version of the piece of production music and found that it had. I was not at all happy with this, despite using the two beat break tracks derived from said piece of music.

I listened through the rest of the CD's I have from the production library, and there's no other music that suits what I want to do; so I've decided that I'm going to use this track regardless. As the beat breaks are production elements, they don't sound EXACTLY like the track, as there are a few effects over the music, and hopefully my piece of production is short enough to go by without too many listeners noticing. If they do, I must find them and stop them talking, especially after all the time and hard work I put in that didn't save properly; so I'd have to start from bloody scratch - BLOODY SCRATCH I TELL YOU.

A couple of jobs back we had a work experience bint who used a big wodge of Blu Tak as a stress reliever.  I kept kidnapping it, crafting into a vaguely human shape and then executing it in a variety of horrible ways.  My favourite was using a broken pen to give the impression it had been trampled by horses.  Close second was suspending it by its ankles from paper clips and rending out its eyes with drawing pins.

* = my short lived music and video production thing. I am stuffed!

I'd like to get all emotional and sincere for a minute; I love you all, every stinking one of you. It's Friday, I've been paid even though I spent most of the week on CaB, and I've just been informed that I have 11 days holiday to take from last year - this cannot possibly be true, but who am I to question the administrative workings of this beautiful company?

Hairy: don't you find trawling through library music the most soul-destroying task imaginable?

Im sitting here in the office having MSN conversations with 3 people and also reading the forum...

and I wonder why I never get any work done...

Des Nilsen

Again, I've nothing to say.

BUT, I have to mention for no real reason that my legs are throbbing and my pelvis aches as I've just spent the last 6 hours walking almost non-stop, after planning to go to Swithland woods just outside Leicester and take some photos with a nice new black and white 36 exposure film.
I get to my 9th photo and for some reason my camera rewinds and I'm fucked. Barely there and without a film. I wander through Bradgate country park and pick up a colour film from a newsagent (they have no black and whites) which sets me back £4:99.
I finally start making my way up to the peak of Old John (a long extinct volcano) and when I'm at the top it starts raining. Hard.
I hide under an archway for 15 minutes and head back down the other side to get on towards the woods regardless. I'm soaking now, and when I arrive there it's very muddy and awkward.
There are people who go 'dogging' there and I had to dodge a few condoms (unused, oddly enough) walking through the place.
I finally used my film with some pretty hum-drum pictures that don't really inspire me at all. The whole reason for using black and white film to begin with was to take photos with a heavy impressionist bent - to focus on composition and relish any flaws in the final images.
Now I've got 9 take or leave black and whites and a roll of colour photos that I just know are going to look horribly boring. In colour it's just some woods, in black and white it has a little more character.
I've walked home while it continued to rain (it's still going) and now I'm going to bed early, mucking up my sleeping patterns again and with feet that will start to split in the next day or so for sure.
I don't like to complain, but today it all went about as wrong as it could have done, barring perhaps being run down in the road.

If only I won the lottery...

Oh, it's Valentine's day, isn't it? So what lovely romantic things are you getting up to today? Me, I am at university, it's admissions day and I'm trying to convince prospective students to come and study at my department. While Mr Rad is at home, probably still in bed. Or he might have got up and had a wank. Ho hum...
Well, tomorrow we're going for a lovely romantic meal to make up for this.

Hairy: don't you find trawling through library music the most soul-destroying task imaginable?

I've only got a small music library personally, I say small...miniscule. I've only got one company's CD's at home, from Vibe (or Music4 as they're now known for some reason, Vibe was a much better name) and they're the 'v - the production library' CDs - but I like Vibe / Music 4's stuff so it's not that bad. If it was the usual cheesy library music and 'buy-out' CDs then I'd probably have slit my wrists long ago - but all those CD's are at the radio station under the watchful eye of the commercial production bod.

Rather him than me - I fucking hate making adverts.

Swings and roundabouts, I guess.

Don't you have a husband-thing? He sounds a bit crap. You should have taken me, Tracey.

Hey, I said I liked 'v - the production library', its just about every singe other CD the radio station has for broduction that's a great big heap of arse. But as I don't do comm. prod. very often at all I'm not bothered - for making promos, trails etc. this is cool - and I've got a load of sfx for sweepers and the like; so what I've got now suits me for what I do now. Sounds good, does the job, keeps me happy and in front of the computer like the geek I am.

I now HATE Val's Day.  My bloke forgot about it.  FORGET?? How can you forget something thats been staring you square in the fucking eyes for the past month?  AND he forgot our 3rd Anniversary last week... CUNT!

I know that a lot of people on here really don't give a flying monkey for events like this, but I do (and I don't care what names you call me, so ner!)  I am really upset.  NNNNNYAAARRRGGGHHHH!!!

For Sale: one 34 your old male, own teeth, slim, non-hairy shoulders.

As you were...

I'll come to your rescue, there's not a place on my body that's not covered in some filthy form of hair, and as such, I'm all proper romantic and stuff. Really.

I can sympathise (oh believe me, I can sympathise), but if you'd been running a decent anti-virus software package it should have caught it.  AVG from http://www.grisoft.com seems excellent and free.

There are better free ones out there than AVG, I was readong some fairly respectable PC mag about two months back, and they tested loads of AV software, both freeware and...not freeware.

Sadly I've lent the mag to my mate a while ago when he was looking for a new AV thing, and I've not had it back off him Sorry I can' be of more help, although this contribution kind of fits in with the title of the thread I suppose.

Everyone's had that experience, let someone onto your computer, come back, and find .exe's on the desktop and/or worse.

On a happier note, i finished both my english coursework's and handed them in yesterday... woohoo

Hairy Chin

like the time I let this girl have a go of my cock, that came back with a virus on it too.


Not really, despite what some folk say or what you may have heard, I'm not a dirty little grubber, and I've never had any sex-germs in my gentleman's area.

Lady Bean, how come you go out with someone nearly twice your age? Nothing wrong with it, just thought there might be an interesting story there.

Tokyo Sexwhale

How's this different to most other General "Discussion" threads?

Hairy Chin

It's different because I think I was the first person to mention genitals for a change.

And I think thats about it. Apart from the name.

Lady Beany

Quote from: "gazzyk1ns"Lady Bean, how come you go out with someone nearly twice your age? Nothing wrong with it, just thought there might be an interesting story there.

Errr he isn't quite twice my age.  There are 9 yrs between us, which I guess is a significant amount to most people.  Always had a thing for slightly older men, but now starting to realise the grass isn't as green as I once thought.  His memory is shocking... forgetting Val's Day indeed. *Mumble mumble* Cunt,

Anyway, to compensate I plan on sitting about in my pants tonight, scratching my arse and eating potato waffles.

Hairy Chin

Cuh - no cards today and no bugger on my MSN contact list to chat with. You know I'm very tempted to switch this computer off, go outside and do something.

When just walking off the estate on the way to the supermarket just now, I passed to pikey fuckwit teenagers, with 'gangbanger' hoods on and everything. (Imagine my terror) As if trying to stare me down wasn't comical enough, when I was safely twenty metres past them they began to shout "Officer...officer of thelaw, yeah real subtle, go on, fuck off, jeans and a black jacket I can spot you a mile off"...needless to say I just ignored and went on my way but man i'm tired of this shit. Yes its laughable the utter fuckwitedness of these clowns and the comical bravado etc, the hardcore criminal shining through in their ability to spot an undercover policeman sloping along blearily in the dark trying to nadvance his career by nicking a teeneager for nicking hubcaps.
But frankly I've had it up to here. I'm moving. I can deal with this in south London, but not outside my fucking door - all thats needed is for me to say "fuck off junior, you must be the brains of the outfit" and them to see which door I went through and I've got broken windows. I worry about this kind of thing constantly now and its not worth it....
