Friends, my two and a half year run at a local video production (I think that's what we were doing) company came to an end today as I resigned my (increasingly frustrating) position as Lead Video Editor. I was able to submit a no-holds-barred letter of resignation and surrender my keys to the place and find a renewed sense of peace. I feel as if a tractor trailer full of pianos has been removed from my back, and I might actually soon find a renewed desire to pick up a camera or edit some footage.
The job has been almost unbearable for quite some time, and my only regret is that I didn't quit sooner. I have no ill will for those involved with the company, but I can no longer be part of a losing proposition.
I will temporarily be unable to attend to any video projects--including my often-sidetracked plans to complete the long-awaited "On The Other Hand" compilation DVD. I promise, I WILL finish this project so that the hilarious work of my OTOH cohorts can finally be shared with whoever cares to pick up a copy.
I am now dedicating my future professional life to making the Pulse the best publication to ever grace the streets of Chattanooga, and to do work that I actually care about with people who actually care about people.
I should, for at least a little while, have a some more time to blog...

By the way, the Sox are coming to town July 4th weekend. Are you interested? It's been too long.
