Pics!
From the AP awards banquet last week: here. Proof, as though any were needed -- we're not TV material! I'll give you three guesses who the total freak in that lineup is. ;^)
But seriously -- it's wonderful to *have* these pictures being *taken*! And it's wonderful how Adrian Martin is maintaining -- no -- *improving* the News Department's profile on the station website. Constantly. She's so quiet and unassuming, working in her little corner, and we never really *know* what she's working *on* until we go and actually look at the website. Then outta nowhere we're all kinda like -- oh -- wow -- that's really amazing! *Huge* morale booster.
There are more pics at the "AP Awards List" link underneath the blurb. The popup window that's too small to accomodate the pictures kinda sucks, but that's not Adrian's doing. (At least it's resizeable.)
"Meet the KUNM News Staff" is interesting, too, with pics of us in studio. Alas, you can only get to that by clicking on the link in the tiny popup window that appears, and I can't seem to find a link to it directly. Again, this circa '97 homebrew website ain't Adrian's work, it's what she has to work *with*. But heck. It's public radio, ya know!
And just for the record -- left to right, it's Jim Williams, Elaine Baumgartel, Adrian Martin, Sam Irons, Devon Armijo, and me.
My only regret from that otherwise wonderful evening is that nobody saw my utterly exquisite silk "bullfighter" suspenders from England. :^)

Post Script: The Word Verification 'Word' o' the Day is: onyowzom. "Onyowzom" is a mild oath to be uttered when bad luck befalls you; more specifically, it is employed when someone has done something bad or semi-evil to you. Literally, it is "Oni Owe's Them". It is an Americanized take on an oath originating from Japanese folklore. It basically means a mortal has done wrong to another mortal, in the stead of a demon (Oni) or to please a demon (Oni).
