50,000 Monkeys at 50,000 Typewriters Can't Be Wrong
I opened up my paper this morning, and I see that I am in the Technology section of the Los Angeles Times!!
This was a VERY fun interview to do, and there’s a cool picture of me, standing in the middle of Colorado Blvd. in Old Town Pasadena (breakin’ the law! Breakin’ the law! Yeaaahhh!!!) in the print version.
Check it out.
I can’t go into the details, but I have a HUGE opportunity sitting in front of me, and tomorrow is do-or-die time…if this thing happens, I am back baby! We’re talking carreer re-birth, a new computer, and nice things for Mrs. Wheaton.
So here’s the deal: if you don’t mind, would you take 60 seconds or so, and send some good thoughts my way? I would be especially grateful if you were doing this between 2 and 3 PM Pacific Time tomorrow (Thursday).
If this works, I will have the coolest story, EVER, to post.
I got lots of good feedback from people about the radio station, and I think it will become a semi-regular feature around here.
With the help of the lovely and talented (well, talented, anyway) Ben, from The pAved Earth, the greatest internet radio station of all time, I have figured out how to do a live broadcast, right out of my crappy little computer. So I have this idea. How about if I do a radio show sometime this week? I can play music, read some of my weblog entries, make some jokes, take IM requests, etc. I can even make multiple streams, so people on slower connections can enjoy the fun, too. It’s been a silly dream of mine since I was a kid to be on the radio, so I think I’m gonna do it, no matter what…it’d just be cooler if there were people actually listening.
I bet this sounds totally lame, but I’ve been watching (and taping) TNG on TNN tonight. Of course, since I am on the Left Coast, I missed the first broadcast, so I missed all the promos I did, so I don’t know if I sucked or not. Dammit.
But here’s the thing: I forgot just how much I LOVE Star Trek. I’ve watched “Farpoint”, The first one with The Traveller, Datalore and Conspiracy…I have remembered so many stories…I’m excited. I have some cool ones to tell, in the coming weeks.
If anyone has it, would someone please email me avis or mpegs or something, of the promos?
Vega$ ruled. I took lots of pictures, and I will put them all up tomorrow.
I’ve read all the Emails I got while I was gone. I’ll send out replies tomorrow.
