Our local public radio station's news director gave notice, and I shall be helping to fill in starting Monday.
I'm torn between doing the Snoopy happy dance and running away screaming.
All of you are welcome to listen to me stammer my way through Mendocino County local news by streaming http://bit.ly/ei9127

Cool!! I wish I could read news on the radio for a living. Since I'll be at home and can access streaming media at least for the time being, I will give a listen.

I've been volunteering here at the station for the last 5 months, so it's not a living yet. But it sure is an interesting life.

Thanks!
I've been insanely busy at the radio station. The bad news is that I'm still a volunteer. Unlike the person who has all her friends tie up the station's phone line by calling regularly to ask the station to hire her, I haven't even had time to apply for the position.
Worse news is that I won't be able to get to any h2g2c2 business until this weekend.
For you Star Trek fans, Rene Auberjonois did a promo for our spring pledge drive.
Happy Nerd's To-Do List:
1) Must apply for paid position.
2) Must take care of h2g2 stuff.
3) Must not squee like a fan girl.

Okay, it's official. I'm a freelancer now, and all the news segments that have been broadcast count toward my invoice.
Incidentally, we are in the middle of our pledge drive, so if you feel generous ...

Okay, I want to state for the record that I don't want to read this item regarding a body found floating in the creek.
That sounded heartless.

Yesterday I interviewed one of the original Freedom Riders who lives locally. The segment should be on the air today and tomorrow.
