Congrats, Andy & Emmy! But what confounds me is why, on the night of your engagement, at 11:30pm, you are on the computer?? Didn't you two have *anything* else interesting to do?? Katherine |
| By Andy (Hitman) on Tuesday, December 19, 2000 - 12:01 pm: Edit |
he he. Come check out the bags under my eyes!! ~8^) Actually, emmy was really excited to tell her friends... but none were home!  So, we wanted to post and spread the news. Also, I had told her how I pre-blabbed the news on the web, and was afraid my bigmouth would spoil the surprise, so she wanted to see... |

Does anyone have the equipment to create a digital audio file (mpg, wav, etc) from a cassette tape? or, anyone know where you can get this done? I have some tapes I want to create a CD from, before they wear out!! |

Yay! I was next, I was next! Isn't it fun to be engaged?! |
| By Reuben Brown (Gurureuben) on Friday, January 05, 2001 - 06:42 pm: Edit |
You just need a cassatte deck with rca outs and feed it right into your sound card. That's how I created a disk of movie clip audio, only using a VCR instead of a tape deck. |
| By Andy (Hitman) on Saturday, January 06, 2001 - 12:58 pm: Edit |
do you need some software to capture the input? |
| By Chris (Chris) on Saturday, January 06, 2001 - 06:27 pm: Edit |
Andy, Try MusicMatch, it has all those capabilities. |
| By Andy (Hitman) on Sunday, January 07, 2001 - 06:47 pm: Edit |
ha, good idea. Some buddies of mine started that company, and work right down the hill from HP. I'll give them a shout and figure out how to hook it all up! thx,a |

Emmy and I are looking for a place to live (for those who know the "parent's saga"... we're movin' out!) Does anyone know of a place available, or coming available in the Hillcrest/ Mission Hills/ Balboa Park area? Musts: enclosed garage rent < $1400 laundry on site (preferably in unit) Wants: older charm, hardwood floors, not big complex, maybe freestanding house, sunny, quiet if anyone is moving out, has a for-rent sign in the neighborhood, etc.. please mail me: goodena@hotmail.com |

Wanted: A velvet rope with stands. You know the kind: the one used to admit people into a club and one with hook or a snap to engage it. E-mail me if this item can be borrowed for this weekend. mmhwang@att.net HopMichael |

Anyone want to speculate what twisted use Michael has in mind for this "velvet rope" Heh, heh. |
| By CatThyme (Valorie) on Thursday, January 25, 2001 - 12:14 pm: Edit |
Perhaps a sockhop speakeasy with password requirements to get inside? |
| By Andy (Hitman) on Thursday, January 25, 2001 - 12:20 pm: Edit |
probably some kind of trivia quiz... or a spelling bee... ~8^) |
| By HopMichael (Mhwang) on Thursday, January 25, 2001 - 12:43 pm: Edit |
Keep guessing. Well, anyone have it available to borrow? |
| By Heather Hawley (Holee) on Thursday, January 25, 2001 - 04:46 pm: Edit |
Ohhh, I know what you use velvet ropes for. Duuuuh, obvious. A DJ Deathmatch! Claymation figures of Ron, Dennis, Meeshi, Chris and Reuben duke it out in a velvet-roped ring. Great idea, Mike! |

Hey--I'm about to call back some companies I sent my resume to, and am trying to put it off without being unproductive in my job search. So I thought about y'all. If anyone (or anyone's company) is looking for a tech writer, I am looking for work, and I'd much rather talk to people I know about that then anonymous human resources people. hatin' the job search-- heather |

Human Resources people suck. |

Heather, I didn't know you were a techie! What are your fields of expertise, and do you do work on a contractual basis? Nat |
| By Heather Hawley (Holee) on Friday, February 16, 2001 - 11:36 am: Edit |
nat-- Most of my experience tech writing has been writing instructions for search engines, help sections, interactive games, and ecommerce sections on the website I work for. It wasn't part of my job when I started, but I did it since there wasn't anyone else to write it--and I liked it a lot. I don't have _tons_ of experience--especially with the softare most tech writers use (robohelp, pagemaker, etc) but I think good writing skills make up for that. I've mostly looking for something permanent (read: stable) but I've thought about doing contractual work--I'm just worried that with limited experience it might be hard to get started and pay enough money to make rent. thanks for the responses, though guys--I love swing dancers. why does job hunting suck so much? h |

Hey, Mark, are you serious? I know someone who is looking for a job as a firefighter. He'll be finishing up school this semester. Let me know! |

Honey, I fight enough fires in my everyday life. (I have no idea what that means.) :P |
| By Mark Shtino (Firemark) on Wednesday, February 21, 2001 - 06:52 pm: Edit |
But Sugar pie to get paid for it, really well by the way, is worth it. -no experience required -extremely stable and permanent besides it would be nice to have a dance partner at the station to practice with while working.......hmm getting paid to practice dancing, sounds pretty good. |
| By Heather Hawley (Holee) on Thursday, February 22, 2001 - 10:51 am: Edit |
you should just teach a few of your fellow firefighters to dance. then y'all could have a swivel contest, or a slow blues jam. (I'm guessing it's mostly guys in the station). I would PAY to see that--and hey, I live right next ot a firestation, so it would be easy. he he he he |

Condition is decent considering it's age. Suede elbow pads also in good condition. It's an odd shade of aged green.'Harold Robbins' Embroidered on the inside waist. A Fantastic Piece of Vintage Sports Clothing. Anyone interested, I will be having a private showing with negations about price then. In other words, I don't have a photo to post yet. |

Flexible hours , she figures 20-40 hrs a week, and will train.Some PC experience would be helpful. You must be willing and able to work with little supervision. Definitely room for growth in this job. In El Cajon. If you or someone you know is interrested, e-mail me and I'll pass your info on. Jane |

Red-HoT Size 7-1/2 Party Pumps These are simply adorable, you will feel sooo...raar-raar when you put these on! Shoes indicate they are a 7 1/2 B, but here are the inside measurements anyway: from inside tip toe to heel is 9 3/4", at inside ball of foot at widest point is 3", the heel is 3 1/2" high measured straight down the back. The front part of the shoe has multiple "dots" cut out in a sort of star burst pattern and allows your foot to breath. These shoes have been worn only a couple of times with the little rubber heel at the bottom not needing any replacing at all - really, plenty of wear to be had in these cuties! A very flirty shoe. |
