You must go down in history as the most dyslectic,
foul-mouthed "Christian" of all time:-) I am sure your
pastor is proud of you. I try to refrain from replying
to your posts, as they usually result in a number of
messages to my personal mailbox from people wanting to
tell me the "truth about Kruborg" There is no subject
in which I am less interested.

For one who claims to hate the mud slinging of news
groups you seem to do a remarkable amount of it yourself.


I have asked Arny several times what this "truth about
Kruborg" thing is all about.


Speaking of being spelling-challenged Iain, the correct spelling is
"Krooborg". The word traces back to the Middiot, the one that holds court
over on RAO. I suggest you speak to him yourself Iain. As he's an idiot
you can speak to him in his native tongue, which is idiotese. I'm not as
fluent in that peculiar dialect as you are, Iain.


The fan of yours who writes to me, calls you "Kruborg" (he's an
American of Danish descent). Perhaps the joke is too subtle for you:-)

know.


You obviously have a different definition of pal to me.


I got the idea that the two of you were close:-)


However, if I really wanted to know, I'd guess some Googling would soon
turn something up.


No.I don't think so. This is probably to do with something before Arny
was "born again", found the Lord and took up the tambourine:-)

But who knows, and who cares? Not I for sure.

I watched an interview of a very pretty young singer/songwriter on Danish
TV a couple of nights ago. She appeared charming and sophisticated,
despite her having been involved in some pretty questionable drug related
situations in the past. The interviewer said "Tell us about your early days"
She smiled sweetly and replied "Oh, you mean *before* I was a virgin?

Best regards as always

So she has heard th Groucho Marx quote "I knew Doris Day before she

Yup, you can judge people by their reactions to trivial typos.


Alternatively, you can form a fairly accurate impression of a person
from their inability to spell a word of one syllable correctly.


I find that a rather depressing POV given my own tendency to misspell words
or commit 'Prescott-isms' - particularly in newspostings. I'd rather judge
what people say by the content, although clarity obviously aids
understanding.

I've had more than one student who had serious problems with written
English, but were good scientists or engineers. Ditto a few of my
ex-colleagues. :-)

Slainte,

Jim

Yes. That's probably the source of the witticism. I have also heard it
applied to Julie Andrews, but this use in the first person singular is
quite novel.

Another of those bitchy comments you say you hate so much in others.
Including boasting on how much you earn. How very juvenile.


As you well know. Dave, levels of pay in our industry are skill related.


ahem Given the clipping and related oddities I've encountered on some CDs
I must confess to having my doubts as to how that 'skill' is judged and
applied in various cases. In some cases it is a 'skill' I'd be embarassed
to possess, although I guess if they are mainly concerned by their pay,
they may not be bothered... :-)


More acid. Obviously being oh so polite on all those private groups
you inhabit has taken its toll.


Most broadcasting companies and many record companies are corporations,
so I wonder if your use of the word "private" is appropriate?


You mean they are "public" in the same sense as some schools in the UK are
called "public schools"?... :-)

Slainte,

Jim

I have access to groups you don't have Iain, so what's your point?

Your TV sound forum would bore me to tears:-((

So you'd be bored to tears by something concerning my work, but think
I
should be interested in yours?


If you do not appreciate or know anything about music, then it
might not be too interesting for you, but you would probably be
more than happy to exchange pay.slips:.-)))


Another of those bitchy comments you say you hate so much in others.

Dave. I have just remembered, I have an e-mail from you written some
time ago, in which you were very keen indeed to know the rates of pay
for your kind of work in this part of the EBU region. I think the info I
was able to supply came as a bit of a shock to you. You did not think
it juvenile then:-)))

I am told that "the problem in the UK is that there are few staff jobs in
broadcast, and a large number of people are competing for the same
work as freelances at a standard-rate on a take-it-or-leave-it basis."

Also it seems that "the suits don't have much regard for the skill of
sound personnel on the studio floor doing live sound (we call it "sound
sync" here) The picture is *much* more important, except of course
in the case of classical concerts, at which the very able people at
the BBC always excel."



Best regards as always

Ordinarily, I'd agree but while Iain's busy *ballooning pricks* I can see
his point.

And isn't he doing a great job? Seeing you and the other remaining wrecker
of this group (Plowie) squirming and squealing, like you both are, is most
amusing - especially when he seems to be able to do it so easily!


Keith. Arny is a pretty simple fellow. He's a Born Again Christian.
My maternal grandfather was a Baptist minister. He was a fine,
upstanding God-fearing man, but even as a child, I could see
that "the brethren" were a very odious bunch to say the
least.. Arny fits the mould *exactly*.

When I need cheering up, I play one of his recordings:-))


Cheers

I never yet met a God Botherer who wasn't a serious PITA with an

Agreed, Jim, agreed. I am just have a bit of fun with pompous old
Arny, (of condensor microphone fame:-)

It's a good thing he was not born as Moses. he would have
transcribed "The Tin Commendments"
