Ive been on medication for it, [...]

I suppose I should make sure I remember how to post — otherwise it is going to be tough to share with you the show we are doing this week…
That’s right, we’re back.

Just thought I would post a quick update — Uncompressed is not dead, but is very much on hold at the moment.

Sometimes life just gets in the way — that is the case this week at Uncompressed. Thom and I have both been putting in hellish hours at our respective jobs, and Sean’s no slouch either.

Thursday, November 2nd, 2006

Thought I would stop by and make a quick post so you dont think that we are getting lazy again.
For the past year Uncompressed has been recorded mid-week. I dont know that there was ever a rhyme or reason to this — its just when we decided to do it. The last week or two [...]
