Personal Opinion

You know, when I post on message boards anymore, I feel as if I’m a lesser species. Like nobody cares who I really am. I ask a valid question, and I get a duh response. I fee insulted and say something (probably stupid) about it. Then I get warned by a mod. Where did I go wrong? Why can’t I just be appreciated more? I’ve tried to fit in as much as I can, but apparently no fan group wants me. Never. Anywhere.

I give up.

A New Website…

Folks, I have finally established the section of my website that I’ve been wanting to do for years. My contribution to the roadgeeking community is here…

Roads of Northeast Tennessee

Only one page of pictures is up so far, TN 70 in Hawkins County, please do take a look at that.

And may I request that you PLEASE, PLEASE give me some feedback as to the look/formatting of the site. I’d appreciate it.

Sunday Sunday

Well, another boring Sunday has come. Have had a good weekend with Greg, going up to Roanoke on Friday, then just out exploring the roads yesterday and taping footage. Thinking of going to a baseball game tonight and trying out a new tripod we got and how my camera skills play out.

Just wanted to drop a quick linke. Hey jarockjores, shout at me on AIM sometime, screenname is ETSUBuc25.

Toodles.

Mark it in the history books that as of 2:25 AM early on the morning of 7 July 2005, I offically completed the last assignment in Radio/TV Writing. THANK GOD!!!!

That is all…

Writer’s Thoughts…

You know, being in this Radio/TV Writing Class has been fascinating, especially when I get to critique other commercials and read all sorts of insane ideas. It’s just amazing what some people will try to pass off for a “script”.

For example: we had a 30-second radio spot assigmnent for “Ache Eze”, a joint/muscle pain reliever that comes in a new, cream roll-on version that won’t stain. I read one of the ads, and saw the following notation…

SFX: APPLYING CREAM

…and I tried to hold back the laughter. When I told Greg about it, I lost it completely. How in the world are you supposed to simulate this sound effect? Does it sound like someone making yogurt, or someone opening a fresh can of tennis balls (you know, when the air escapes)? Baffles the hell out of me…

Oh well, at least I’ll just turn in my work and hope it’s halfway decent. Anyone want to read stuff, let me know and I’ll send stuff over.
