I woke-up just now, then ten seconds later remembered that yesterday I found that I'd failed yet another job hiring process, for an interesting, small, company doing interesting things that treats its employees decently, and has equity in the deal, significant because I think they'll be acquired within a couple of years. —and I did really well on their programming challenge, then screwed-up an hour's virtual interview, partially from sleeplessness.

Then I saw my crudely-edited talking pie, and knew I hadn't failed at everything always, which is how I'd felt….

Thank-you, Ken.

I considered the programming challenge more realistic than many such, and I did well at it. Early in the later interview, though, I muffed something, and my chest tightened into a solid mass of failure that only tightened-up further as the hour went on.

I hate irreversibility, I hate having my next few years and all my Social Security diminished by the mistakes of an hour. I feel the interview unduly weighted and wish that I hadn't scheduled it two weeks after kidney stones and a cancer scare, I wasn't fully recovered, really…but I also have contempt for myself when I blame factors other than my just not being good enough, I must be at least as hard on myself as the world will be, as it's near-merciless and I at least lay-off after awhile.

@murakami whywolf i'm so sorry that this happened to you. i can relate- several years ago i failed a practical, hands on portion of an interview for a "dream job" situation at the company i had already been working for for 6 years. i worked in a very niche industry, but the role was similar to the one i was already doing, and i had the blessing of my management team. but i messed up on the practical test, panicked, and lost the job opportunity. i was devastated.

it feels like it sucks SO MUCH right now, but there are other opportunities out there, sometimes in places you don't ever expect. i work in a totally different industry now, and my life is infinitely better. keep at it, be open to weird opportunities, and everything will be ok

Hi Androu B!

More about the years we bombed Utah: May 1953, the Atomic Energy Commission conducted a safe nuclear test shot called "Dirty Harry" near St. George, Utah.

Within a few days, more than 4,000 sheep were dead of a mysterious illness. Within a few years, a plague of cancer and birth defects had rippled through the area. The radiation fallout most likely caused the cancer-related deaths of John Wayne and over 100 other cast and crew members of The Conqueror, which was filmed only miles from the test site.

I know I shouldn't but I crack up every time whistling makes me think of Cancer Boy in Kids in the Hall's Brain Candy.

Okay had to check. When I do it it definitely sounds different and can't get it to sound more natural.

If memory serves me, Tomita's synthesized "Claire de Lune" includes a whistle effect.

My dad won whistling contests when he was young.

In other news, in the twenties and thirties, there were whistling contests.

I got to board op a Firesign Theatre radio appearance and was so proud of myself for bringing one of those Fred Lowry whistling records along for the gig and played it behind them. At one point, though, I heard Phil Austin say 'how come everyone plays that whistling record whenever we're on the radio?' or words to that effect. DOH!

I don't listen the pooey flute. It's too low brow. We, sophisticated listeners, listen exclusively to Scheiße Flöte recordings by the Deutsche Grammophon.

Hi, Ken!

Egg,

Could you please take notes of the show for me while I'm away? I might arrive very late for today's show.

hi Ken - Phil Shaap's ghost may be haunting you for a while, going on about alternate takes, catalog numbers and who played on what recording (or not). He might even have a few more jazz jokes for you, and probably knew who they were talking about too.
