Gonzo, let's be honest with each other.

When I was in your Oprano Radio chatroom, I didn't say a word until Nick started busting my ass. I responded nicely compared to the nasty crap he was dishing out. Show the transcript. Let the people know the truth. When Nick settled down, I remained quiet and behaved myself. Why would I want to disrupt your show? I wish you well, and CJ is one of my favorite people so I hope you work out the sound problems so I can hear her.

You sent me the personal message. I responded. I have always liked Oprano. When did you join? I was here the first week Serge & Mike opened the Oprano Board. There are some outstanding boards. Thank God, because I was very loyal to Netpond, and I felt a little lost when Aga told me to leave.

Gonzo, I know you are against censorship. Make us all proud and get this damn Oprano Radio off the ground. Get someone to help you with the sound problems. Get out there and kick some ass on radio like you do on the Oprano Board.

I was honest...I said you behaved and confessed your undying love for Oprano.

Let me straighten you out on the "sound problems" its not going to get much better. CJ is in fucking Australia...I think its pretty spiffy the way we have the voice over Ip working to begin with.

As I stated and it wasnt a joke or a lie. This stuff is running with the following:

1. The good graces of AEBN. The provide the server, the pipe,and some of the technical assistance. This deal was an agreement between that company and this board. They are allowing us a server and whatever pipe we eat and thats it. Thanks again AEBN!

2. I got a sound mixer, a couple of mics, some cans [headphones] and a shit load of patch cables wiring together shit all over my home office. Not the office downtown my personal space. Ive taken one of my shitty NT boxes at the downtown office and we use it for a Voice over IP server. Thats it!

3. CJ's personal computer. I think she has a nice mic and some headphones.

So if you really use your imagination and some creative accounting we might have totally combined between all of us maybe $500 cash money invested in all of this.

Then lets add in our total "broadcasting background". CJ has been on a couple of radio shows and I had been a guest on ONE [the same one I was on Friday as a matter of fact.] So we've got lets call it 6 hours experience in the biz total.

On the otherhand you pick one of the bigger networks...Dokk...TAW...PLR etc etc.... my guess is the bigger ones [by their own admission Friday] have 100's of thousands of dollars invested in their set up. And then they said 12 years of professional broadcast background.

So when you weigh it all out we might have a few pops and crackles and some of our shit might not even work from one week to the next. Thats just how it goes. Im not the voice of Nascar or WCW and CJ aint Lillian Garcia.

So you guys can go off in your secret corner and talk about how disorganized we sound, how stupid Serge is for investing in a 'net radio this late in the game and how I can get fucked. Bottom line is yall dont get it. And Ill be damned if Im going to explain it. The intended purpose is being achieved. Case in point is....your listening each week aint ya?

[And thats the bottom line cuz GonZo said so!]
