- Meeting #11 - It was nice to
meet with Bill for no real reason. We talked for a
good 45 minutes, and a lot about school. I told him I
just couldn't stand it, and he understood. He then
gave me a scenario that I will never forget. (Rough
paraphrase):
-
- "Ok, so you drop out now
to get this CD going. You'll probably be asking for
a full time position, which we dont have
right now, so you'll have to get some sort of job
during the week. The CD sells well enough, that you
want to make another and keep going. You're about
23 now, it's taken you a little longer than you
thought to get your music off the ground, but
things are going good. We offer you the full-time
position, which is nice, you keep workin' on the
music. Realizing now that getting that extra job
made you busier than before, so the CD stuff is
still laggin'. You're close to 30 years old, and
all of the sudden......you're Steve
Cannon."
- And that was all he needed to
say. Not that I buy it all. The CD will be good or bad
on it's own merit, not whether or not I'm in school
when I produce it. We talked about quite a bit though,
and it was nice. I am a substantial part of the
station now.

SHOW 101
- The first night I had prankers
before the show started. Made me have to play a
spot after my opening because I *69 him. Then he
cussed me out even more. All night: "Are you gay?"
Over, and over, and over. I handled them pretty well
though. It was a classic funny night. Had a drunk guy
who was racist and liked the Celtics call up. It was
very comical. A lot of new listeners, and a new
Face-Off Winner! And he beat Douglas! Yes! Brian-3,
Douglas-2, and Prof. John-2. I'm keeping track of all
of the contestants now. Going in early tomorrow to do
some work, otherwise...I'm lovin' my job and things
are going great, even with the pranks.

SHOW 102
- Went in early to eat my dinner,
and do production. Got soundbytes of "Loser"
and "Alrighty then" from Jim Carrey, then I did stuff
for school. The show was going great, and the pranks
were just stupid, and then they got bad. Screeching
and screaming in my ear. So bad that in the middle of
trivia, I threw on a song. I said: "My ears are more
valuable than Theme Trivia..." I went back on and
finished it: Aaron-3, Andy-2, and Brian-1. I almost
fell asleep when I played that song. God was I
draggin'. Good night, but the prankers really pissed
me off. Oh, and got BWF #70. Another nice
landmark.
