WHAT THE ?!?!?!?!


Ok, this is REALLY weird. GOOD, but weird.

Our little 32k stream has chugged along, getting 4 or 5 listeners at a time during peak hours.

The limit is 10 (although you can exceed that limit if some are VIPS)

So tonight, I get home from work and I have seven emails, spaced roughly a half hour apart, each of them saying someone made the 32k line their favorite.

I check the stats, and sure enough, we're SOLD OUT on 32k! at one point we had FOURTEEN on that line! We are STILL sound out now!

I checked out stats and it looks like these people are from all over. Canada, multiple parts of the US.

So the question is. What the hell happened today that suddenly everybody dug down deep into the live365 file to find us ranked 46'th and then decide to play us?

Ok, I think I figured it out, and I think we have to thank Ruby again.

We're getting a ton of hits today from that freebie site she got us onto.

Now the way I figure it, people who like free stuff are probably USUALLY kind of frugal. The type of person who might have dial-up instead of braodband because it costs more.

Therefore they need the 32k line.

It's the best I can come up with right now.

It would just be my luck some other cat would open the bag do his business and seal it back up. Kind of like my brother did with the Grape Nuts.

JD, it IS astounding.

Like I said, the ONLY thing I can think of is Ruby's post on that Freebie site. Can you think of another reason?

Well, perhaps the people who were tuned in last night liked what they heard and are becoming listeners. Way to start the growth of the station.

O.K. This has nothing to do with this thread, but I have to say....

WOOOHOOOOOOOO! Stud Kitty is back! I'm so glad to see it.

Eat your heart out, penguin.

Thanks, Sparky. That made my day.

Hmmm, might be time to bring out the "special" cat food agian...



See if he's shakin' that tail after a good dose of sleeping pills!

(I'm just kiddin' Sparky, I actually think that's the best avatar you've ever used. It's a tie between that one and the original well dressed kitty.)

Thanks! I had to bring it back by popular demand.


Plus I am finally getting that big stain off the floor! I don't suppose anyone has any Pinesol?

That forum has thousands of members, but a lot of trouble lately with the forum. The view counts are incorrect etc... But I have been a member for years and that forum can spread some words!


 


Free things have a great appeal.
