I love excel, but...

So the last couple days I've been pulling duty as Captain Excel at work.  I went in early the other day and spent until noon finishing the sheet for the cost analysis project.  Its not like I was using trig to create the forumlas for the sheet (pretty much just algebra), but hunting down the costs of everything associated with this project thats billable and then breaking that cost down in some cases to a per/case figure was quite some work.  And then, since the production project has only recently (as in the prior 2 days) been running half way decently it was almost impossible to give firm

3 stories, no waiting.

So I've been messing around with my pod some more and still have barely touched the surface of what this thing is capable of.  I am having trouble saving settings for some reason, I should probably look that up in the manual.  I have found a nice semi-fat bass sound that I like using a combination of amp and cabinet modeling available and think I may stick with it.  It needs a little bit of tweaking, but for an all-around sound I like it so far.  But then again there's dozens of combinations I haven't tried yet, so this is subject to change.  :)

Ouch

So from yesterday morning until just a few minutes ago, I've logged nearly 12 hours on my bass.  Do I even need to explain what my fingertips feel like right now?  Ouch.  Plus thats one heck of a wasted weekend, but whatever.

More on the musician's clan

If you are interested in the concept of a clan focusing on playing music (and games of course! haha) then please go here:

http://www.2old2play.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=viewtopic&t=52065

We want to see if there are enough people interested in it.  If so, then maybe we can approach the powers that be and get a green light for it.

Musician's clan

JCotter and I have been exchanging PMs about pods and so forth (he's helped me a ton with my new toy) and got to discussing a clan for musicians.  Not the Rock Band/Guitar Heroes of the site, but for people who actually play instruments of any type at any level.

I know there are a lot of musicians on this site, and many folks far more talented than I.  Would you guys be interested in a clan like this, maybe use riffworks or some other recording tools to pass along and compose songs amongst ourselves?  Share tips on sites, equipment, or playing in general?
