7/4 Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Oh hoho! Now we know why you can spend 12 hours listening to Mosaics and hanging at the big "O"! I know a bit about that gig. Truthfully, when I had my 12 marathon, last Thursday, I was away from work. I sat on my bed (near my stereo), enjoyed my three new Mosaics, and played on Organissimo for the duration. The 12 hour marathon started after the Airborne truck arrived. I couldn't believe I spent 12 hours on the stereo/computer. Like, where did that day go? Hell, I work at home most of the time. That kind of shit happens all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesbed Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Hell, I work at home most of the time. That kind of shit happens all the time. I have to go to an office for work. So, when I'm home, man, I'm at home. I had a terrific day, playing my stereo and computer. I was entertained, all day, by the Organissimo board, JJ Johnson, Johnny Hodges, and Elvin Jones. Yes, an excellent day for all involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 I'm glad I don't work at home. I'd never get anything done. I know others can do it but I would be so distracted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Well, I'm glad the board is back up, but I don't think my boss will be. No doubt, my productivity will be the same as it usually is; if the board were still down, who knows what I'd get accomplished tomorrow?

Jim Alfredson Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Invision is providing a covertor for version 1.3 to 2.0. It just isn't out yet. That's why I haven't updated. And also why I haven't made any more skins. Usually the skins are not transferable, regardless of the conversion software. So I'm waiting until we get 2.0 to make any more.

Rooster_Ties Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Whew... The board's back up!!! I lurked on AAJ a time or two, but it just wasn't the same. Glad things are back again!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noj Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Maybe I should have held my breath with that Conan character, I didn't catch on for a while--then it was funny. I'm glad the newly abbreviated "BIG O" is back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Al Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Glad to have y'all back again. Hopefully, the weather hasn't been too rough on you guys up north; I got family up in Grand Rapids, so I hope they're being spared as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christiern Posted May 24, 2004 Author Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Apropos the unwanted. AAJ has welcomed Heaney ("hardbop") back, so I'll not post there in the foreseeable future. I know that every board eventually has its troll(s), but Heaney's little Amazon adventure secured for him a special place in the gutter. I do, however, regard AAJ as a fine site, and I feel grateful to Michael for giving Organissimo a rallying thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you have to review grant applications submitted by frightfully confused organizations who're attempting to navigate minefields...er, guidelines crafted by govt. bureaucrats who'd die rather than communicate in something other than sliderulenerdspeak, frequent distractions are a must!

Invision is a different software company, as far as I know. I hope the new version allows and . No, it looks quite a bit different. Part of the problem over at AAJ and JC is that they haven't taken the time to make custom skins (which is a time consuming process, believe me). But for a glance at version 2.0, look here. It doesn't show you much because most of the action is behind the scenes, but it's going to be way cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt, my productivity will be the same as it usually is; if the board were still down, who knows what I'd get accomplished tomorrow? Shades of one of my favorite Onion stories... The Onion: 48 Hour Internet Outage Plunges Nation Into Productivity BOSTON—An Internet worm that disabled networks across the U.S. Monday and Tuesday temporarily thrust the nation into its most severe maelstrom of productivity since 1992. "In all my years, I've never seen anything like this," said Price Stern Sloan system administrator Andrew Walton, whose effort to restore web service to his company's network was repeatedly hampered by employees busily working at their computers. "The local-access network is functioning, so people can transfer work projects to one another, but there's no e-mail, no eBay, no flaminglips.com. It's pretty much every office worker's worst nightmare." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris olivarez Posted May 25, 2004 Report Share Posted May 25, 2004 I went to AAJ and JazzCorner to see if I could find out what was up but found nothing which hardly surprised me. Glad to see your back up and everything is ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
