May 27, 2006 at 12:56 pm #145335OreoMemberHey! I’m sure it’s great! Sorry I missed you guys last night…Mr. Sandman found me early. 🙁 Apparently he’s changing his rounds 😉
May 27, 2006 at 1:50 pm #145343MrEggsaladParticipantOh wow….that was so funny, I enjoyed it. Great stuff, sometimes I thought it would get quieter and stuff, but really overall I thought it was great.
May 27, 2006 at 10:38 pm #145341SpikeMemberWoo! Go Sami! Your singing vioce was amazing. And Ryan…it’s okay, you can come out of your corner. :p
Great podcast, guys. Again, it was really fun. Hope to do another one soon (but not too soon!) 😉
May 28, 2006 at 3:54 am #145337TigerbladeParticipantheh, sounds good, y’all. i’d forgotten what sami’s voice sounds like (it’s been a while since i heard the ‘ducks at the pond’ clip.) and the purr. meeeeeeeeeeeeeeebo.
and lots of good information from all. even though i rarely use skype, and almost never use meebo, i still found it interesting to hear about it all. there was a bit of a hum somewhere towards the middle (about 16 mins in) and it seemed to get a bit quiet. at least, Jeff’s voice seemed much quieter than the others’. as i listen further… yep… definitely much quieter, almost to silence at the end.
hey baby… you got instant messenger?
May 28, 2006 at 3:58 am #145336shifterMemberAwesome Podcast this week. The banter was great, the stories were interesting and you guys sounded like you were all having fun!

Thanks for your awesome comments!
May 28, 2006 at 5:47 pm #145340RabidKittenParticipantOh dear sweet mother of pearl I’m loud *geep! Hides under her desk* I had no idea. *reminds herself to take the mic -out- of her mouth before speaking* Oh dear.
Heheh, Yeah it has been a while since the good ol’ “Kids hitting geese with rocks at the pond” rant was up. Heh, also if I remember correctly, I had a cold at that time as well, so I may sound different. *shrug* But yeah it seems I just more and more rediculous as time goes on…heh, at least in my old rants I never tried to sing happy birthday. *cackles, dies of embarasment*
At first things were a lil awkward, but we got it all rollin’ pretty quickly without too many problems. *oh and still no email from aim phonline, hah!*
I hear you Tom, I only use skype…for…well actually this was the first time I used skype other than a quick little ‘how do you do’ with Ian and Jeff earlier that day and an extremely excessive call with Jake later on. And I’ve never used Meebo before, it is still easier to sometimes hear about those little things.
Out of curiosity…how long did we run this time? I know our call was for an hour but I was off trying to create a ‘no fly zone’ and silence the birds for some time… *rubs the back of her neck* Tee hee.
Meeeeeeeebooooo….

Sounds like y’all had fun, and glad I didn’t miss the grand performance of Ms. Sami Monroe. Need to place me an order on some of those herbs. LOL
Sound was a little off but all in all it was a great show.
May 29, 2006 at 5:06 pm #145342sarahtownyMemberOh another excellent podcast, really enjoyed this one. Sounded like you all had great fun. Especially loved the singing! Forget the intro music in future just get Sami to sing us a song ;0)
