[15:45] <akgraner> Hey y'all!  We are finally back in our house! :-)
[15:45] <Nivex> \o/
[15:46] <akgraner> Y'all are all invited :-)
[15:46] <akgraner> global jam at the graner's :-)
[15:46] <Nivex> rawk
[15:46] <akgraner> (hmm I might should as pete and the kids if they mind)
[15:46] <akgraner> ;-)
[15:47] <Nivex> once it gets warm just set up one of those big tents and a couple of port-a-pots out in the back yard :)
[15:47] <akgraner> nods
[15:47] <akgraner> geeknic at the graner's
[15:47] <akgraner> ohhh I like that idea even more
[15:48] <Nivex> it even has some alliterative properties :)
[15:48] <Nivex> my small group has started planning our SELF 2011 roadtrip
[16:10] <holstein> akgraner: CONGRATS :)
[16:10] <akgraner> holstein, thanks!
[16:10] <akgraner> when you playing at Barley's again
[16:10] <akgraner> Becca will be there Wednesday night
[16:10] <holstein> you guys have totally earned some boring relaxing downtime :)
[16:11] <holstein> akgraner: COOL, i dont have anything on the book right now
[16:11] <holstein> but i will
[16:11] <holstein> i played there this weekend
[16:11] <akgraner> dang we were enjoying some boring downtime
[16:11] <akgraner> sorry about that we should have come out and listened to you play
[16:11] <holstein> akgraner: no worries
[16:22] <BugeyeD> holstein: can you tell when folks are listening to your streams? i've done it a few times; it's sometimes hard to get anything out of it with the kids around though, so i haven't done it much.
[16:22] <BugeyeD> my aunt has a plaque in her house that reads something like this:
[16:22] <BugeyeD> living with small children is like being nibbled to DEATH by ducks.
[16:23] <holstein> BugeyeD: if i remember
[16:23] <holstein> i can look and see the peak listeners
[16:23] <holstein> and current listeners
[16:23] <holstein> i usually just close it down though
[16:23] <holstein> i think i might need to go with ustream or justinTV
[16:23] <holstein> something with video
[16:23] <BugeyeD> akgraner: congratulations! i'm certain that's a relief for you guys. i simply cannot imagine going through what you did, and i'm happy that you made it through.
[16:24] <holstein> the rig i have now is all opensource though
[16:24] <BugeyeD> i like that fact
[16:24] <holstein> me too :)
[16:24] <BugeyeD> i have no room for that kind of thing in my current life, but it definitely interests me
[16:24] <holstein> AND, i could do video with it
[16:24] <holstein> pretty sure i dont have the bandwidth here though
[16:24] <holstein> i could keep it open
[16:25] <holstein> and run it on a VPS or something
[16:25] <holstein> we'll see
[16:25] <holstein> ustream is easy though
[16:25] <holstein> depends on what my target is really
[16:25] <holstein> if its us, then what im doing is fine
[16:25] <holstein> but, ustream would be more accessible
[16:25] <holstein> and understandable
[16:26] <holstein> to other OS users i think
[16:26] <holstein> i think its great that i post a link, and IE probably chokes on it ;)
[16:26] <holstein> and hangs
[16:27] <holstein> but, i want to be more open in as many ways as possible
[16:27] <holstein> and if that means using ustream, than i probably should
[16:27] <holstein> and the social integration is handy
