oops. i took too long screwing around.
the CDR was recording backup data from the multitrack… y’know, audio stuff and whatnot. it was taking forever, so i hopped online and made a sandwich and hopped online again and had a fag in the garage. i checked it a few times, and the last time it said it was verifying (a crucial thing, because what good is it if you’ve just made a coaster and don’t know it?) …but verifying took so long. i went back and it was done. i THINK it verified. now i hafta actually pull the damn thing’s dick and see if it squirts goo. i’m pretty sure it’s alright. i should NEVER leave equipment when i’m trying something out for the first time.
my friend Tony told me he got a Nintendo 64 the other day. it was sitting out with a bunch of other stuff, with a sign nearby proclaiming “everything’s free… isn’t life great?” (or something very like that).
and that’s the second time this month that he’s had a story just like that.
THAT’S the real Yellow Springs. that’s what they don’t show you on a map, or in a flyer, or in the back of the local free left-leaning “arts & opinion” weekly.
