Wil Weaton's first podcast & stuff with things in it

[mizarchivist]

Radio Free Burrito, Episode Zero is up and worth listening to. Go forth!

Hm. I realize I've been pretty quiet and/or content free for the better part of 2 weeks. Oops? My redneck Thanksgiving experience was pleasant, but not riveting enough to regale you all with the details. Work has been steady and not overly busy- much of my time has been taken up with scanning images for our catalog, which is grueling. But at least it has snazzy results (oooh, more dead white religious guys!)
On the artistic front, the FINAL (boy howdy do I mean it this time) Serenity shirt screening will be this Sunday. We have a veteran crew in attendance, so all should go well. The other thing that's had me engrossed to an even greater degree is my WinterHoliday$ giftie thing. It's been my habit to do something I can make rather than buy for folk for... well, always. This year's rubber stamp making got off to a shaky start but as of last night, I think I'm ready to go into production mode (not of stamps- that's the tool).
Oh- and the icon that I put up is one I did yesterday when aspiring to my red letter of P for Procrastinate, inspired by Serenity Sock Puppet Theater, which is very much in the same vein of the [foo movie] in 15 minutes style. High-larious!

You mean, more easily-accessible dead white religious guys!

And yes, I will be more than happy to drop stamp pads at your office on Monday. Would you care to do lunch? The book I need to read at Copley is only 150 pages long, so I can either get it done before or after lunch.

"You mean, more easily-accessible dead white religious guys!"
Damn, straight, sistah. That pretty much is the point.

Yes to lunch, pretty please to stamps!

Love the icon and SSPT was wonderful too.

What's the intern status?

[mizarchivist]

Interns have completed their official time and have volunteered to stay on through January in an attempt to get to a better stopping point. They've made huge progress and my confidence in them has grown a great deal.

[drwex]

Right, i remember you said that they were staying on a volunteer basis. I was wondering how that was going - I know my own motivation doesn't always stay with me when I go from paid to volunteer status. It's good to know they're still kicking ass.

Is is possible that you can use current good interns to help you find new good ones? Maybe they have people to recommend rather than your having to take pot luck each time?

[mizarchivist]

It's only been a week that they've been on volunteer mode, so we'll see.
Regarding them being an avenue for an insurance policy for future interns, I'm afraid the system doesn't work that way as nice as that would be.
