Today,  I spent several hours working with the crew at WRFN, Radio Free Nashville. It is a low-power station that has eclectic programming, and very cool people.

Today, we moved the computer equipment out of the production studio (which should drop the temperature in that room significantly) to a different room with a proper rack and everything.   We ran several cables and my day job skills were put to use in mounting and punching down CAT5 jacks and patch panels.   There was also “grunt work” involved; I took baseboards off so others could paint – I went under the house (!) and didn’t get freaked out by spiders.  Lunch was fantastic – I forgot where it was from, but it is a popular restaurant – and some folks brought in their own dishes as well (the chicken noodles were HAWESOME).

But let me go back to the folks.  They were truly great.  Very nice, accommodating, giving, informative, helpful.  And most of them are (gasp) godless liberals!  There were several unflattering posters of GW on the walls – I’m fine with that, though – I’m an equal opportunity opponent.  I think ALL politicians suck.  Anyway, I was grateful for the opportunity to help out.  I may even take them up on the on-air offer.
