msb-0201 Where do I live again?

msb-0201 Where do I live again?

intro

Feedback comes first, so...

[whistling wind] None... Well except for exchanging banter on my blog with MDMHvonPA an' Miss Chris.

Feed Forward comes next, so...

This is "your" segment.

Say "your" piece on this segment.

Share with other MSers whatever "you" want to share.

Drop me an email: charles at MSBPodcast.com

And I would apreciate if someone could write a review of this podcast on iTunes [ http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewPodcast?id=120932170 ] You can just select the link and, eventually, scroll down the iTunes page to "Customer Reviews"

Feed Me comes third, so...

Do you have a therapy, product, good or service that is of interest to MSers?

Consider advertising on this podcast.

Reminders on this segment only cost $0.03 per reminder per download of an episode. (A $30CPM targeted at MSers.)

It can/should lead to a full ad, in text, audio or video, which costs $3.00 per download.

That sounds expensive until you do the math and realize that if nobody downloads it it costs you nothing, unlike print, where you often can't even get an ad in to the specialized journals, or radio or TV where you'd just be wasting your money with the 0.0833% MSers rate of return. (That's about six times "below" the level of "statistical noise".)

But MSBPodcast is 100% in your market, and you only pay per download of your material.

No play, no pay.

Reach the MSers who would buy your therapy, product, good or service, with-out having to waste your advertising money on anyone who is "not" interested...

"Thesis:"

As I start the third century of these podcasts I am reflecting on what a long strange trip its been.

I started just full of anger about ... something, probably this disease, maybe my stalled software career.

Full of piss and vinegar, I was.

Then I sort of settled into my podcasts.

I changed them and they changed me.

But it gave me some focus outside of myself. (The view is always better when its of something other than your own navel.)

I got back into media in a major way, gave a great deal of thought to the thunderbolt of inspiration that struck me as I was sitting in front of the Manhattan Campus of Metropolitan College of New York, and ... everything changed.

"Synthesis:"

There are lots of reasons why my attitude changed and if I was still a depressive, introspective moody li'l critter with a sour outlook on life and lots of self imposed time on my hands, I might invest the time and money analyzing myself and get into long-winded low-level listless rants about it all.

But life is for living, even if you got dealt a shit hand and it looks like every body else has always got dealt straight flushes.

Fuck 'em. I'm having fun anyway.

When they write my epitaph it won't take long.

It will consist of a single character: "!"

"Conclusion:"

Podcasting has changed my outlook on life, and that's a good thing.

My wife might complain about my having my iPod on my hip and my ear buds in all the time but she would jam them in herself if I threatened to give up podcasting. (She also likes my music selections, [mostly] :-)

Now where do I live again?

Oh...yeah... Noo Yo'k.

The music this episode came from "The Stone Coyotes" (http://www.stonecoyotes.com/) and that has to be the best rock I've heard in quite some time. Reminiscent of the Stones from

You can find them at cdbaby.com [ http://www.cdbaby.com/ ] and buy their music.

Support the band and keep the music flowing.

Yes, I must confess that I would have made a lousy salad dressing even then. :-)
