This is episode 48

I've been converting my 400 or so albums from vinyl to CDs, to MP3s, and you're going to reap the benefits of my vastly expanded iTunes catalog.

This summer, I discovered I could write and assemble a book in a week, spend a month revising it and it could be out for sale before school started.

If you'd like to help me out and get a nice book to read for your trouble, you'll head to Lulu.com and purchase a copy of "Episodes: The story of an MSer and of MSB's Podcast".

The link is "live" on the podcast. [ https://www.lulu.com/commerce/index.php?fBuyContent=7503026 ]

Its also live at MSBPodcast.com.

Last week I suffered from a major brain fart which wiped out this episode as I was saving the final product.

Yup a major oops. And its "mea culpa."  Something broke in my workflow.

They happen.

Like I spent the week-end frantically preparing for, doing research on and eventually applied for a job on the SPC website with almost two megabyte  of supporting evidence gathered while examining every damn page doing due diligence for the job of "Assistant Director of Web Strategies and Communications."

(Did you know the site consists of 1,890 page, 128 of which are there redirecting people to another page because of a structural problem in the page naming scheme [SPC uses numbers,] there is no versioning system, no galleries for pictures, [they're embedded right on the pages,] and some of the pages are there because test and development are being done in the production environment.

The SPC web site is really amateurish. And that is my professional opinion as someone who did it for banks. You would never entrust building an ATM to these people. )

Turns out that the job had been filled previously some time back, but nobody had thought to take the friggin' posting down.

Grrr. This is the kind of ineptitude that I keep encountering. "Its not my job..." or "I didn't know I had to take that down."

God how do these people keep food on the table, I'm sure I don't know.

The lack of coordination in this college is proof that the staff is almost dysfunctional.

Here comes the last side of record 5  and both sides of record 6 of "The Jazz Singers."
