[rec.music.gaffa] WOW

Wow.  I just got some more of Ken Saint Johns pictures.  The first disk and a
half are 14 pictures from the Box set booklet (the larger ones, some of the
smaller ones are really to small to digitize).  The third disk is all the
photos from cathy, about 4 or more per page.  They are rather small but of
good quality.   
I should be able to post these when I post the disk versions of cloudbusting
in hopefully less than two months.  These will probably be already available
by then.   
        I myself am working on a cathy project.  I have all the photos scanned
in on 640x480 16 grey scale photos with the FULL picture taking up the left of
the picture.  I have not given them out yet as I have to clean em up a little
more (like removing my finger holding em down!) and also I intend to add the
text from the book to the RIGHT of the photos.  It should fit just perfectly. 
I am having some problems doing this as I am trying to add black text to a
white background which doesn't look so good on a interlaced amiga screen, so I
will have to find a combo with less contrast.  
        I have also discovered that I am pretty terrible typist, when simply
typing in something off a book. If anybody has "cathy" add wouldn't mind
typing it in (its really not so long) let me know and then it could benifit
Ken's project, my project, and could be posted for anybody with archives
access to read.  Its not in print anymore so this should be helpful to those
of us who don't have the book (I borrowed it!). 
        Also I MAY be asking for voluteers to type in anything that isn't
already in The Garden that I might need.  I am not totally sure if there is
something as I don't have one of the garden files yet, but there may be.  
 
        MAC users: GOOD NEWS!  It looks like I may be getting the full
development system for HYPERCARD 2.0.  It was offered to me today, and I
should get it in less than a month.  The people who offered it now owe me a
favor so I am pretty sure I will get it (funney how that worked out :-). They
also told me about a good book on it so I should be able to get that and do
it.  THey are giving it to me in Amiga AMAX Mac emulator format so I will be
able to run it on my system.  Its on SEVEN disks so it may be clumsey to work
with but what the heck.  If you don't have Hypercard 2.0, you may want to get
it.:-) 
 
        I have heard that some of my messages REPEAT lately again.  This
shouldn't be on the ones I send directly to the net, like this one.  If
anybody sees more than one copy of THIS MESSAGE, please let me know.  
 
        I am still not sure if all my private messages get through, so if you
have sent me a message lately and haven't got a response, let me know.  I
usually reply right away so.....  

        Well I off to the mountains for a day or two so talk to you later. 
First time away from it all since the con....

I had a neat experience this weekend.  I had to go up to Wisconsin to
a shopping mall to get fitted for a tuxedo because I am going to be in a
friend's wedding.  While I was there I wandered into a music store.  I
didn't think I was going to find anything I wanted because it looked like
all top-40 stuff, and Madonna was playing over the in-store stereo.

I walked over by the music videos and I saw Kate Bush Live at Hammersmith!
I couldn't believe it!  I have been looking for that video for a while.  Most
places don't have it and say that they can't order it.  I had almost given up!
I snatched that baby up quicker than I could count to one.  I watched it
over and over.  It is marvelous!
