Another Man-made Disaster

This one by Brother Tim

I would like to apologize for the absence of the And, yes, I DO take it personally Radio Show today.

Although I'm not computer-illiterate, I am often computer-stupid. Profmarcus had tutored me on the procedures to get the show up and running. I had all of my copious notes in front of me, and was sitting at my computer chomping at the bit. I had the radio site up and was waiting for airtime. I called in and was being serenaded by the elevator music. I opened up the switchboard, and it kept telling me 'waiting on host to call in'. I kept hanging up and re-dialing, only to keep getting the elevator music.

After pulling out what little hair I had left, I discovered that the guest call-in number and the host call-in number was one number off. Being somewhat of a speed-reader, I was looking at my notes thinking I WAS calling the right number. WRONG.

So I offer up my sincere apologies to any who may have tried to listen in. I have my head screwed on correctly now, so I hope y'all will tune in next Thursday; as we will be up and running.

Once again, I'm sorry for any inconvenience or disappointment my stupidity may have unleashed.
