You are fresh-ground coffee, black, first thing
in the morning.

You are a life-giving substance.  The US government
has secret stockpiles of you hidden in caverns
under the Rockies.  When for some reason you
are late to a meeting, world financial markets
are thrown into chaos.  Your presence can cure
warts and mild depression, and when you enter a
room, you diffuse a gentle fragrance that
reminds people of the happiest moment of their
childhoods.  Cats and children adore you;  they
curl up at your feet, where they torment small
crawling things and occasionally lick your
toes.


What kind of coffee are you?

Just pour it in a cup and pass it my way.

Houston, we have a DVD

YIPPY! After some experimentation, I found out why the program kept barfing out and relaunching itself, chewing up VM and just screwing up.  (Failure to initialise was the MS "official error message"... I call it oversight on their part.. I mean c'mon, if you have a selection to "Normalise Audio" as an option, it should not make the process crash, yes?)

So, I have a very professional looking DVD, with ... MENUS! Motion MENUS! and a nifty sound track, last but NOT least, rolling credits at the end (including our business Copyright notice)

I did find out what caused the reverb effect on the last dance set. It was a combination of WIng walking around us, our costumes/bodies getting between us and the camera/mic and the slight overhang of the tent above the music source.  The mic was so senstive, it actually picked up the echo of the music happening IN the tent.  Guess I should have overdubbed, but it's a rather interesting effect.

We have a motto about performances:  It's not a performance unless something on the costume falls off... typically a tassle, piece of jewelry,or a loose zil.  As luck would have it the new camel tassels I put on the ties of my belt added just enough weight that with every turning move we did, they slowly yanked my tassel belt untied, and you guessed it, it slid off.  Luckily Wing didn't follow me as I let the _meegan_ and polgara_hanwi finish out the song as a duo.  Told students about the DVD and Seana asked if the fubar with the belt was going to be included, and I told her "You betcha!"  She, Brenda, and the beginner students there were glad to hear that.  It shows that even with a goofup, you just keep going.  Loved Seanas' philosophical attitude... "At least it wasn't your choli."
