Saw this on another site, but today is 9/02/10 or 90210.

They should have done a reunion or something for tonight.

Kodos · 09-02-2010, 09:47 AM

FWIW, I have no use for Kurt Cobain.

Or Bieber.

Ksyrup · 09-02-2010, 10:21 AM

He was born a month or so before Cobain died, so I doubt that's him.

Then again, Cobain was probably dead inside well before he killed himself, having married C-Hole.

Only good song Nirvana ever had was "All Apologies".

And god bless even more the high end specialists who are willing to take your crappy insurance and fix the problems the other guys cause.

YES. That and radio ads with police sirens in them make me furious. Cell phone rings are maddening, too.

We ban so many other dumb things on the radio. Banning sirens would be good.

Poli · 09-08-2010, 11:20 AM

My house finally has a contract on it after nearly two years on the market. Lord knows what I will spend my money on with my half of the mortgage payment.

Well, technically, since I'm going through Financial Peace University right now...it's going to go to my emergency fund and 3-6 months of expenses fund...but once that's over, I'm finally going to have some BLOW money.

I'm very happy I don't have any debt outside of that blasted house.

Logan · 09-08-2010, 11:45 AM

BLOW is a great way to BLOW your money.

Speaking of which, my wife and I have extra money so, plan on paying off the car so the only debt we have is our house too (and our CC which we pay off monthly)

JediKooter · 09-08-2010, 12:59 PM

Poli should paint his house orange and white checkerboard.

Poli · 09-08-2010, 01:09 PM

I would love to do that, but I'm not sure it would sell.

Man, I'm excited about getting rid of it.

You moving far or sticking relatively close to where you are now?

Poli · 09-08-2010, 01:33 PM

I'm already out of that house...I've been out for nearly two years. I live about 10 miles from it. My ex-wife has been in it the entire time.

We've split the mortgage payment since the divorce.

sterlingice · 09-08-2010, 01:36 PM

That seems somehow not quite fair...

Yeah, I didn't go for fair in the divorce. She kept most of the stuff and the house till it sold, as well as most of the credit card debt she racked up. Our divorce was quick and to the point.

Fortunately, I'm free of memories from stuff we had together, free of the house, and free from the debt.

I may have mentioned this before, but it's definitely top of mind tonight: For a lifelong radio guy to suddenly find himself dealing with video is a real chore.

Conceptually I pretty much get it, but damned if I'm not a lost ball in high weeds when it comes to trying to edit even stuff that should be idiot proof (like multiple still frames) in Adobe Premiere. It's nothing more than a glorified P'Point slide show for crying out loud but I've spent most of the last hour trying to figure out how to extend the duration of a damned title slide with no success.

Grr. Just fucking Grrr.

sabotai · 09-09-2010, 12:35 AM

I've seen about a dozen or so episodes of the show Whale Wars, and tonight I watched the Whale Wars episode of South Park. Man, they destroyed those guys and pretty much everything they said was spot on. Not only does nothing happen on the show most of the time, but I think the biggest "victory" I've seen was one time they got close enough to shoot some red paint balls on to the side of the Japanese vessel......hurray, red paint. That'll teach 'em.

Their biggest lose was when a Japanese ship rammed one of their ships and sank it.

I think the Japanese are winning that war.

(I guess they do enough harassment to affect the Japanese ship's ability to catch whales, but the show makes it look like a colossal waste of money. Millions spent to shoot some red paint. Good job guys.)

Greyroofoo · 09-09-2010, 12:59 AM

And as an aside, Cartman's version of "pokerface" is available as a rock band 2 dlc!

Ksyrup · 09-09-2010, 10:11 AM

So... If a car with "carlashes" gets banged by a truck with testicles, could they end up with some kind of SUVD?

Not super familiar with Premiere, but, is the title slide one that you made or is it from one of the provided stills? Most video apps allow you to drag the edges of a clip on the timeline to extend them or shorten them.

I think in the preferences you can determine the default length of a slug or title. Final Cut defaults to 10 seconds and you can go in there and change it to whatever length you like. I would be surprised if Premiere did not have this feature as well.

Unfortunately, my baseball instincts would kick in and I would actually try to get the out instead of running away from the play like Deion Sanders does a tackle.

I have to agree with you. My coolness has not been at that level in years. I'm not even sure I could pull off a 3.

Thanks JK, your advice is spot on ... but doesn't seem to work for me.

You're supposed to be able to drag the edges, but no matter what mode I'm, dragging/moving anything keeps doing something else. It either tries to relocate the slide (which are all imports from Photoshop Elements, btw) to the next segment or simply moves my position on the timeline, it never lengthens the clip.

The default, which is based on the type of file imported, is 5 seconds. You can set a global default higher for slides upon import, but I'd still have same problem, as I need the slides to have different durations. There's also a place where you can manually adjust the duration for each individual slide by simple replacing the :05 with another value typed it & while it appears to work (i.e. it stores the new value I've typed), upon playback every slide stays at 5 seconds.

I finally had to give up, in hopes of being shown what I'm doing wrong (or how to do it right) by someone at my son's school this afternoon when I'm there for related stuff.
