First day of new job went decently enough. The folks at the city all seem to be pretty cool people, and the ones in the immediate office were most helpful and patient. Hopefully I'll pick things up quickly enough.

I haven't been blogging much lately, mostly because there hasn't been a whole lot of note going on. I've been trying to avoid getting the early-winter blues, with only some success; hopefully the new job will help with that, though. Brian and I have also been getting out and volunteering at the community radio station; appropriately enough, we'll be picking up the blues program (entitled "Walkin' Those Blues Away) this Saturday from 5:00 to 7:00 PM on KRNN - if you want, you can listen online. Any requests?

And because it's been that kind of a day, I present this without comment:

Heh -- it's long been said that dirty-minded people make the best copy editors, because they can catch little moments like that before they make it into print (and end up explaining a lot of unbelievable little nuggets of evil to the rest of us). The few times we did try, er, more virtuous copy editors, we regretted such choices, usually...catastrophically.

What does it say about me that I can't think of a way that that sign could be even remotely understandable in any way other than what the dirty mind can come up with?

Yeah, I'm wondering that myself...

I *think* it's supposed to imply that by preaching the Word of God (or whatever iteration of it they believe in), you can inspire awe and reverence in people. But, yeah. That's some primo fail, right there. :D

I call dirty-minded preacher.

I mean, c'mon.

God, I wish my local Bible church's marquis sign gave us juicy tidbits like this one. That's fantastic.

I found out that there's no call in number (not surprising for an NPR station I suppose) and ringing your cell phone while you're on the air would be hi-larious inconsiderate. So I'd better make my requests in advance. (:
If you have Susan Tedeschi's cover of "Share Your Love" then that'd be cool.
And if you're feeling hard core difficult listening, you can drag out the Tom Waits--maybe "Singapore" or "Rain Dogs". "Gun Street Girl" and "Blind Love" are a more traditional blues sound, off that same album.
Less hard core is Lyle Lovett and his Very Large Band doing "Here I Am".
Okay, I'll get back to work now.
