Join us for any portion of the evening, again the show is to be part of a collection of live recordings incorporated in a CD for this Renaissance Festival season-come and make some noise with us.

I'm in Atlanta for a week of traning, waiting for the first class to begin. Being here is, at very least, a positive sign that Wells Fargo still plans to hire me before my contact expires.
I'll be here for the week heading home Friday evening. It is currently a balmy 30 degrees Fahrenheit. |

+Setting up shop will take a couple of hours. Thank you to those hearty souls who join us.
+Gather we will at four o'clock with blessings and ceremony at five bells. The reception and merry making will follow directly. We have registered at Linens n' Things and Target. We are planning to honor our elders with a scholarship fund in their names. Christmas ornaments, large rocks, quarter inch patch cables, just you, yourself, and your bliss at our wedding is most important to us.
+Now, won't you come out to play? |

On December 23rd at the Heart of the Beast Celebration Hall [map] from 1pm to 3am, Dee and I will be hosting our very own wedding.
Come! Sing! Speak! Swagger! Spread the good word near and far!
After setting up at one (help!) we’ll launch directly into cabaret, interspersing music and speaking (help!). Buffet style sustenance and spirits will be available for your contemplation.
Please bring well-marked equipment, especially if you plan on using it. We’ll bring a 10 channel PA, some microphones, cables and stands.
The ceremony proper will be embedded within the general festivity that is you playing music while we drink and make merry. Time-certainty for the ceremony has been added to the future features list but has not yet been scheduled for implementation.
This posting consititues our offical inviation. Please make plans to attend the wedding of Dee Duckwall and Corwin Brust on Saturday the 23rd of December, 2006. You may RSVP by posting here (comments are not screened), or by sending email to wedding@mpls.cx. |

If I'm hosting something for you, or providing you with email, etc.. it's broken. I should be back online tomorrow evening and I'm planning on adding a second machine sometime in the next week or so, so things should speed-up soon after.
If I'm doing domain hosting (DNS) for you, you will need to update records with your registrar. You will need to provide information which I don't have, yet, so I'll post that here --as a separate message-- once I've done the install and know what it is.

Work is fine; we sold many CDs this past weekend; Anika and Dee are well; more eventually. |

| First day at the bank |
[Sep. 5th, 2006|10:06 pm] |
As of today I'm a senior software engineer at Wells Fargo. A good first day. Good thing, too. Tommorow afternoon the person who started the technical requirements for the project leaves for three weeks in Europe and I'll be responsible for taking over that task and beginning implementation.
Steve: Hi Jim, this is Corwin. He's going to be me for the next three weeks.
Jim: Heh, poor guy.
The Renaissance Festival is going well. ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) sharlabacchus visited and sat in for two sets and Erik and Nicole (WANOLJ) joined for the middle day. I think the pair of them will be comming next Sunday also, for those wanting to see the Brother Seamus cover band known as Chirp.

I'm usually more given to a journal but seem to good day to point out finds.
I know that starcat_jewel --and quite possibly several others-- have mentioned this. The N.Y. Times reports if your in the United States Plan B [gotoplanb.com], the "morning after pill" will soon be coming over counters near you.
Reading the Drageara Fan List I found tenser, said the tensor who -in addition to having nice things to say about sbzbrust- wrote a great article on what a what a planet is considered to be, why, and by whom.
Finally, Bruce Schneier's latest blog entry is entitled "What the Terrorists Want". After reading this entry I wonder if the Terror Alert Level needs a companion.
Perhaps a "Public Terror Index".
This could help members of the public (who may not be able to watch TV or read much) figure out the level of fear appropriate to various activities. It would measure such things as how often news programs cite the Terror Alert Level and the amount of air-time and column space dedicated to terrorism related events compared with how recently those events occurred, providing indices for common activities such as flying or walking or napping outside in the afternoon given various wind conditions and cloud cover situations. |

| Rhymes with Famous, CHIRP |
[Aug. 19th, 2006|02:47 am] |
I'm tired. Thanks to the chicken paprikash (alierajean: we have to have you over more often) I'm satiated. Also, I'm packed up and ready to head to Shakopee in a few hours.
This year Dee and I will be "CHIRP". Along with Nicole and Erik and perhaps Anika, we'll be playing music. Look for us on the daily program (which we call the Broadsheet) or ask after us at an information booth. When possible, and assuming I have it, I'll provide notice here as to when Erik and Nicole will be comming.
We plan on selling Rhymes with Famous along with Dee's record (same link) and CHRIP's record, when that's ready. The important news in all this is that if you are interested in one of the fifty signed and numbered copies of the intial run of "Rhymes with Famous" you should let me know of your interest soon, as there at least some possibility that we could sell all of them during the Renaissance Festival, this year. For now, the best way of letting me know is to comment here. |

| Then again, the wall may just break... |
[Jul. 10th, 2006|03:19 am] |
As of a couple of hours ago the mixer is working again. Tonight wasn't only multi-hour treatment invested to remediate it from paperweight status; it's rather the first for which I have anything to show. Somthing in the "disable the onboard sound; upgrade the motherboard's firmware; upgrade the mixer's firmware; upgrade ProTools versions" process has made it possable once more to "bounce" recordings made last Feburary down to CD quality WAV.
Still have no idea how we managed to break it. Link-to-Sample coming soon, to a Friend's List near you.
