Give thanks (NONDEAD) |
I know you all are sick and tired of the nonDEAD posts, but I thought we might all take a moment, not of silence, but of celebration for three individuals I am proud to know hereabouts:
LiA, for the history lessons that will soon be a book (I am sure). To celebrate his contributions, I heartily recommend something from the early era, say, 9-19-70?
Monte, for the pictorial access to his life and his techno experiences with the DEAD (and others) over the past 40 yrs. To celebrate his photographic gems, I suggest his first show from 73?
Dire, for making it one yr at a time, in sobriety and marriage. Last, to celebrate Dire's accomplishments, I suggest you go to your window, stick your head out, and yell "The PATS suck!" (alternatively, you could put on his Sept 87 [La Bamba] or Jan 88 shows...).
Way to go one and all!
Back to the music.

Dire -
Check your mail. I sent you an anniversary present containing a pair of Wellington Boots, velcro gloves and a map to the nearest sheep farm.
Put the back legs of the sheep in each of the boots, grab a hold with the velcro gloves and enjoy the ride.

After a little research I have discovered that the sheep in the video is of French persuasion and has the name of Ovis Aries Skies.

Re: Give thanks (NONDEAD) |
A guy walks into the bedroom carrying a sheep in his arms and says, "Honey, this is the cow I make love to when you have a headache."
The wife, laying in the bed reading a book, looks up and
says,"If you weren't such an idiot, you'd know that's a
sheep, not a cow."
The guy replies, "If you weren't such a presumptuous bitch, you'd realize I was talking to the sheep."

Yeah, that pic is just grossing me out. I actually didn't see it until after I put up mine: the juxtaposition is strange, but maybe appropriate.

Ga Tech v. Miami tonight. Will certainly set up an interesting year for the Hokies and the rest of the Coastal Division. No doubt in my mind that the ACC Champ is coming from the Coastal.
Daughter left for Blacksburg this morning - she defendes her Master's Thesis tomorrow and is staying for the Nebraska game. Wish I was there with my Hokie Dad shirt and Nebraska hat (MBA, Uof N, Class of '97) eating a turkey leg and fried pickles.

Re: Give thanks (NONDEAD) |
I remain today,
thanks to all of you, a cured man yet again - so that I may live yet another day on our planet. You all are my therapy and stress relief. I have learned enormously in your presence.
I beg your indulgance once more, to thank an amazing engineer - Glenn Hill
— Tim Keefe, Monte Barry, Glenn Hill —It was Glenn Hill who convinced all the Computer Image engineers to hire me there in Denver in 1984. It was Glenn who got me and him the gig backstage at Telluride Bluegrass Festival in 1986, because the incoming phone call - searching for freelance video engineers in Denver - came for Glenn. Under Glenn's leadership engineering role, we engineered an 8-camera shoot teleproduction at the Telluride festival. We were hired by the brand new $6 million TV truck, Challenger Productions, for this gig. Last thing I knew about Glenn Hill was that he worked at length as senior engineer for Sony Corporation in San Jose.
Before all the digital imagery and digital computers, there were analog computers generating video imagery that was playing on your TV sets for 10 years. The Scanimate system, developed by Computer Image Corporation in Denver, is the essential device from this era. Glenn and Monte are listed on the Scanimate alumni webpage.
Scanimate video trailer
"I knew I had really gone commercial
was when I 'glowed toilet' paper."
Scanimate was developed in the 1960s
