My guess is that Zing'house will give away their "just practicing" to a
variety of local businesses (future lunch-time customers) and to Food
Gatherers.

Cool. Thanks, other. :)
(I wonder if future board meetings could move to the west side of town. ;)

The Observer's article on Zing's Roadhouse has it sounding quite different
from the usual setup. One dining room has all long tables, where you'll
plop down anywhere and dine with strangers, unless you bring your own
crowd.
This could be good or bad depending on the person or family
joining you. So lunch gets exciting. ;-)

Back when Earthen Jar had one (1) table it worked that way, and was kind of
fun.

Doesn't sound too bad. I like to sit at the counter when I eat at cafes.

I may almost be back (to Grex). Still no network connection from my dorm
room, but I'm discovering and making more use of campus labs. . . .

They were doing a test run for employees and others last night, I think.

I know, I know, and ever since June died, I wondered how long Johnny had left.
But it's losing an icon.

he wouldn't be much of an icon drooling in a hospital bed
in a state of vegetation, now, would he?

I have a pair of announcements, one of which is quite sad, the other
amusing. The really odd part is that both were communicated to me in
phone calls, one right after the other, this afternoon.
1) Steve Graham, former acting Chief Engineer at WUOM, the NPR affiliate
in Ann Arbor, and more recently the computer systems and support person
there, died by his own hand this weekend. I had spoken at some length
with him only a couple of days before, and had no indication or clue.
2) The ACLU of Michigan is producing a booklet about recent cases in
which they've been involved and because they so liked the quote I sent in
response to their request, they've asked for a picture to accompany it.
I sent them the one that prompted someone on Grex to post an item
suggesting I looked like a serial killer (the one with all the little
captions on it), and they like it, but would prefer to not have the
captions. I can't find a decent one, so a photographer friend is going
to shoot something this evening.

Great, because the Secret Service agent who was just here,
asking about you, wanted an up-to-date photo. Post the
URL when you've got it up, okay?

Well, the one I sent is the one on munkey's old grexer site....
The most up-to-date shots are on my website, from the trip from which I
just returned.

The picture you describe is on munkey's new web-site too. It's under
lifestyles, I think

Your first bit of news is really horrible Eric, I'm very sorry to hear it.
Steve was a former Grex user (maybe M-Net, I forget the timeframe).
I knew Steve a bit and bought some audio equipment from him a few years ago.
He had extremely talented ears and was a very nice guy willing to share his
vast knowlege in the audio field. He was responsible for the tone of WUOM
and to my ears is one of the best sounding FM stations out there, mostly due
to his hard work.

I once called up and asked him for a notch filter because I lived too
close to the WQKL tower to be able to get WUOM on my radio, and he dug
one out of his desk and sent it to me by campus mail. When I saw him
late last week, I mentioned that I guess I should give it back in case
someone else needed it... :(

the other eWUOM engineer i knew (who got a royal screwing
from the "establishment") was James Paffenbarger.
this makes two in a row. wazup wid dat?
i'd mention a too-much-influence naem of a person probably
responsible but the ppl's republic would react with
too much shock and awe .... those closet bushies.
