OSM: What are you on?

Grampa Lee: A laptop computer and strong coffee.

OSM: Try switching to decaf, Gramps!

Abdul Ekyuu: Yo, Old Guy. When Ken hired you, did you get a computer? Do you have a latest technology clause?

OSM: I have an old unfashionable computer.

Abdul Ekyuu: Timothy McVeigh will publicly die soon. Would you do the audio for the broadcast?

OSM: They're putting him to SLEEP!!! What audio? You been drinkin' Grampa's "special" coffee?

Chence W: What made you so grumpy? Did you have a bad gig that turned you this way?

OSM: Many, over the years.

Chence W: Well, tell us about some of those bad gigs, and how you deal with those kinds of people.

OSM: People who will not respect your signal chain, those who want to overdrive your amps and speakers. People who do not respect your timeline. I have been known to start flinging drums off a riser if I think the band is too slow with their set change.

AlanH: If you were faced with the choice of engineering a talented band on crappy gear or a crappy band on quality gear, which would you do? ('Both' isn't an option, nor is hiring someone for half the rate to mix one of them for you.)

OSM: The talented band, always.

Monsieur Frank: What is the most pathetic situation you lived through?

OSM: Hosting a band that seemed truly evil, and wondering "Why am I here?" I got into this because I loved music.

AnnaK: OSM, do you hate all women or just audio women?
