  • Friday Night Fights

    Sometimes, the best way to spend a Friday night is pounding the hell out of the minions of evil. Tonight, for instance, with very capable and generous help, my lead City of Heroes character made it to level 28. This earned him a spiffy new attack power which I look forward to exercising over the weekend.

    I think of it as a cheaper form of therapy than the traditional kind…

  • I knew I had to be pure in some fashion.

    Mind you, this score is based entirely on my non-computer-based gaming experience…

  • Mystery solved. Frustration commences.

    I took two calls from random listeners today, and I think I may have missed at least one more. I finally got some more information out of the last guy to call, which led me to a couple of useful pieces of information.

    One, the Charlie FM comment line is 503-535-0240, and they’re giving it out on the air.
    Two, there’s a good chance that there’s nothing wrong with the promos, hence it’s not a matter of “someone here screwed up” but rather “some people’s hearing is screwed up,” which leads to people mistakenly dialing my number instead of the correct one.

    Argh. At least now I can just transfer these losers, but now I get the unenviable task of playing receptionist to people who are listening to a radio station they don’t like and can’t correctly hear the number they’re told to call to complain about it. Yippee, ha ha, whee!
