There’s an article on CNN.com about Americans moving to India for employment. Slashdot also included a link to Indian job boards, so out of curiosity I check ed it out. Lo and behold, apparently Canada has a severe need of journalists. Hmm, that doesn’t really square wih, oh, I don’t know….THE TRUTH, but who am I to argue with some faceless recruitment combine?
Sorry for the sparse updatery, and it’ll probably be worse for the next week or so. I’m assuming it’ll take at least that long to get set up with a high-speed connection in Osoyoos.
At any rate, here’s a fine editorial deriding consumer culture. I’m sure it’ll warm Lillebuen’s heart as he mounts a multi-pronged assault on the phone demons.
Next saturday I’ll be heading out to a new gig at the Osoyoos Times. Supposedly it doesn’t snow in that part of Canada, which makes me a happy cat.
Luckily, the Primus box will allow me to keep my two numbers, though they won’t work for a week while I get high speed internet hooked up out there. I’m frankly amazed I managed to get most of my possessions in a small enough space to squeeze into the escort.
The best way to get a hold of me come friday is probably through the mail link at the left. i can still check my mail through the web on .Mac.
I’ve been putting the paper together myself for the past week, so I haven’t had a lot of time to post, but just thought I’d let all you fine cats know that CJSR is available online. It’s pretty sweet to be able to listen to “Clockwork Orange Juice” in the morning, no matter where I am.
In fact, if you have a Mac, pick up Audio Hijack. It’s a time shifting program for internet radio (or any audio you want to snag, actually), and it was well worth the $15 I shelled out for it (and we all know my feelings on PAYING for software.) I’ve got it programmed for 3 different CBC stations, BBC4, BBC World Service, NPR, CKUA, CJSR and Radio Netherlands.
