Episode 7

     This was far from being the best show, at least in terms of my engineering skills. Chalk it up to my struggling through most of the show with the (after?) effects of a sinus infection. Still, I think there were some charming moments. (I won’t say what they are in case mine are different from yours). Thanks to those who called in to pledge (as well as those who let me know why they couldn’t or didn’t; maybe next time). Those who did pledge, of course, will get that mp3 CD I mentioned in the last post. It turned out well, I think, and it contains nearly 11 hours of music. And all for a measly pledge.
     I’ll keep this one brief. Sleep beckons, calling me back to good health....
