Default Another visitor to the booth

Hi All - I had been looking for a fairly active community to help me out- most of the other forums are boring, and unattended!

Great community here!

Anyways -
I am 22 years old, male, engaged, live alone, no pets (severe allergies)...
I am starting a new job in january as a network administrator for a small comminity hospital in central ohio... been in IT fulltime since I was 17 (yes, I still went to school)

Have been a sound technician for 2 or 3 churches for about 6 years - all small churchs (32 channel boards or smaller)
Recently started a media ministry at an assemblies of God church, which encompasses sound, lighting, computers, A/V, etc...

Let's see - ninjas, cubits.... can't think of what else


Oh, and GO BUCKEYES!!!!!!!

Welcome.

If there is one thing we're not, it's boring.

Welcome aboard, If you've got a website lay it on us, we are all incurably nosy. Ask any questions you want (including how many carrots it takes to feed a wombat when measured in cubic cubits) we will attempt to answer your questions.
We don't talk about rigging or pyro's.

I might start a Zombie fan group they appear to be unrepresented.

so then, how many carrot does it take?

You can check out www.komputersnmore.com if you want - my old, old IT company I owned - I have since moved on, but the page is still there... a bit rundown - some link broken due to unneeded information... etc

I understand not talking pyros.. but why not rigging? - curious only

I don't know how many carrots that's why I keep asking.
The rigging thing like pyro is an issue of liability and the fact that those on the booth who know rigging don't want some over enthusiatic person to misunderstand what they say and kill them selves.

Double Ack Van!
The old Aussie and his young sidekick both beat you to the new guy!

Welcome to the booth!

Logos missed the other half of why the no rigging policy. Which is: You REALLY don't know who you are getting advice from here so why should you trust the advice you get to be safe.

We are a very safety conscious community here.


Stinking Buckies... we were so close to beating you. We made three mistakes in less than three minutes in the 3rd quarter that cost us the game. The game was MUCH closer than the final score. But, at least you aren't a Michigan fan. Bitter University of Washington fan vowing revenge someday...

I used to have an official greeter position here, until Dave changed to the new version of the software.

So long as we're talking about sport does anyone care that Australia are currently beating the pants of Sri Lanka at Cricket.
