    I'm sure those must of you who live in the UK and in Canada have heard of Zoom airlines going insolvent.

    Guess who was flying with them to a conference in San Diego in 2 weeks?

    Sigh.

    This is the third big probleme that I hit with this trip. I think someone up there really doesn't want me to go.

    First night shift was uneventful, just... long. I got some shut-eye earlier today, which isn't unwelcome at all, but you can be damn sure I'll catch up tonight as I do not work. :D

    I believe video killed the radio star. Does that include the radio DJ? :)

    Ah...I forgot to mention that the it's a local *TV* channel that is broadcasting the goings on of two radio stations.

    I don't know how this lame channel continues to live, the picture is dark and muted, the audio sounds like the mics are at the end of a long tube, and the programming sucks. :skeptic:

    In other news, I have designed and built 5 different circuits that flash LEDs in various sequences. The coolest is the "Night Rider" style LED scanner...which was a b**** to build btw. Timers, NAND gates, binary counters, decoders, demultiplexers, oh my! :rolleyes:

    Forgive that moment of geekyness...but hey, at least I can make LEDs do exactly what I tell them to. :p :rolling:

    Goodness knows! ;)

    I guess if there are some left, then DJs could be safe. Unless they get too popular and star-like. Then they are fair game!

    For me there is a difference between when I go to bed and when I actually get to sleep...

    Sometimes a gap of several hours...
