yay thank you

will listen as soon as I can, but I have accumulated a bit of a backlog over the weekend, so it won't be before tomorrow. But looking forward to this.

And Jim, you are not forgotten either, don't worry.

Is there a vodka martini shaken not stirred involved?

Chris

Funny you should ask, Chris. Yes, there usually is...

I am really sorry, but I'm afraid I will have to give up #85 after all. I had it recorded, but something happened with the recording where I forgot to plug my mic in and so it used the very bad computer's internal mic, so I would have to redo it, and I just don't have the time to get it done on time. Maybe later I will fix it up and submit for one of the short story collections...
Thanks for your patience and I'm sorry for the frustration.

awww I'm really sorry to hear that

I totally understand that it's frustrating to have to re-do a section. It happened to me once but that was only a short poem, and already I was annoyed.

But if you consider using the file for the short story collection, you could also use it here

the internal mic probably wasn't such bad quality to be unusable. How much time would you need ? Is two more weeks ok ?

edit: extension granted till December 11th

I might be made hungry, except I am still recovering from yesterday's feast. Jim

finally had a listen to this grandiose feast. This is actually more an "event-dinner" than a simple meal. The host was a right trickster

And my stomach feels bloated just by thinking that I would have to eat so much.

I found it sad that after such a great meal, they end up quarrelling apparently.

Excellent reading, throughout, no disturbing detectable stomach-growling

so this is PL ok.

Thanks for the quick turn-around, Jim.

ok I was not prepared for such a gruesome depiction in the arena

Made me feel quite faint to listen to this section. I never read Quo Vadis, and now I am not inclined to ever read it. Man's inhumanity to Man.

So sad.

Kudos that you managed to get through this so well. And all PL ok. Thank you so much.

what an introduction of yourself. Thank you, TJ, for the long-awaited Customer

You sound so amazed and full of wonder at the new things you hear from Pythagoras. What an excellent performance. Well worth the wait.

Totally PL ok.

And this means I can finish assembling the play. I've got it all ready but only need to put your lines to the correct spots.
Jim: you can get ready to PL this little gem tonight

I will upload this evening.

Are you getting any sleep? You are fierce in your attack upon the myriad submissions.

don't worry, I do sleep from time to time

and here is the long awaited (at least by me) Philosophers' Sale. I am dead chuffed that I really got 19 voices together for this play

and it all sounds great. You guys are great !

Jim, have fun being the first to listen to it (apart from me). Please tell me honestly whether the many footnotes do not disturb too much from the action in the play.

I know there were many, but I really think especially in this play, explaining the philosophies behind it all is quite interesting. But I hope it doesn't sound too odd with the interruptions.

Also please read along with the text, to make sure everything is at the right spot.
Thank you
