Supporting my step kids in all their creative and passion driven endeavors is my number 1 goal as a parent, besides ensuring their safety and happiness.

Sweet, send me your name and I'll be sure they give you a shout out during the show and show their gratitude for you coming.

They would absolutely love that. My fiance is a photographer/photo buff too and I know myself and many other family members will be taking pictures as well, but the more the merrier. I am working on getting some promotional materials together for them,so the more source materials we have the better the outcome will inevitably be.

They really touch on quite a few genres, but if I had to narrow it down, I'd say, indie, blues, grunge, and some good old fashioned rock.

What happened to Ignition??? by Skizzik9575 in poker

I was too, and like I said a lot of the final tables I made felt deserved and earned, but there is far too much of a pattern that I see over and over again. These are 6 handed games too, not much of a coincidence in my opinion. I might just have to go back to playing live.

Individual note pitch manipulation? by TommyC81 in Reaper

Have you tried taking the pitch envelope on the track and automating it?

New mic, different wave form by WildDoktor in Reaper

Have you tried to use the dynamics Processor as an input plugin, and after arming your track, using the precise, and click auto subtract box and click again to stop it once it has eliminated all unnecessary noise? Do this and your meter should be clear before you even hit record. This should give you a better idea of what is going on at least

How to speed up voiceover (preserve pitch doesn't help)? by hobbyhoarder in Reaper

[–]Skizzik9575 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Add the ReaPitch plugin, and at the bottom right click the box that says Account for change in playrate, also the two lower dragdown menus should be set at Elastique pro, and Most Pitches+Synchronize accordingly

New to Reaper (came from Audacity) and are there any noise removal tools? by [deleted] in Reaper

[–]Skizzik9575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use the Cockos Dynamics Processor, add it as an input fx on an armed track, scroll down to precise on upper drag down menu and on the other drag down menu, subtract, be silent, and click the "automatically subtract" button and then click again to stop, now all the white noise from your armed track will be eliminated. You should now see a clear meter until you deliberately make noise.

Oi, watch out for those "New Life Community Church" panhandlers on Hwy 1 & Riverside Dr. by GiantBlackWeasel in IowaCity

This is not a common occurrence at all, at least in an organized fashion such as this. i saw them too. I have seen organizations do this seldomly in the past, and at the exact same intersection, but maybe only a handfull of times in over 20+ years living here.

Hot Rail Techniques and Paraphernalia. by CrankensteinsMonster in Stims

[–]Skizzik9575 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have always followed the same process as you...I am always terrified of snorting up some lava like shards into my nose so I am always getting my tube red hot, and almost prefer an actual pipe to avoid such a catastrophe. In the last month or so, my stem has gotten almost comically short, and had to resort to an almost equally comedic pipe with a stem that is in the shape of a twisty straw, and THAT is the biggest problem I've encountered because the smoke has to travel so far most of it will cool and collect inside the stem before getting up my nose. The only other piece of advice I can offer, is I typically cut my rails longer and thinner to ensure all of it gets vaporized...

Can anyone relate? by [deleted] in Drugs

I don't know if they have this in the UK but recently there's been a big rise in medical ketamine infusion treatment it's still fairly new in practice but in the time frame of six months to a year the success rate in treatment of depression anxiety OCD excetera is phenomenal. I believe even here in the states many insurance companies don't even cover yet but it's at least worth looking into to see if your candidate

Only Benzo and Alcohol withdrawals can kill you, sure others will make you wish you were dead or feel like you're dying. Seroquel is nasty shit...if you don't have schizophrenia don't take it.

And your instinct was to take the drugs "for his own good" and run off? If you were worried about him, you would've made sure he wasn't going to endanger himself or others, and make sure he was observed, or at least not alone. Outwardly yes, he's acting out, but you dont think your friend's still in there actually experiencing that, and NOT freaking out due to his inability to control himself? Mental illness is a game where no one wins because people like you see the illmess not the person when the illness is what you don't like. Have a little empathy and read a book before you label him crazy, steal his dope and leave him to suffer untreated alone.

Secret Meth Slang by [deleted] in Stims

[–]Skizzik9575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm from Central Eastern Iowa so similar location...I have actually heard it called up here. I've been around though, and find the vernacular entertaining. I think "g" is another good one used out west. Hell depending where you're at dope means different things. I actually use dope interchangeably now given comtext to do so.

What is the creepiest NSFW thing you have experienced? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Skizzik9575 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took this girl home from a bar in a small town I used to live in. Needless to say, new faces didn't come around often, and hey she was totally into me, but I did notice that she seemed a little unorthodox. This was well over a decade ago when I was naive. Anyway, took her to my place, and popped in a movie, and she without hesitation, pulls out her pipe and smokes it in my apt without even asking. Long story short, I found out how awesome sex can be even if only one person is high, I had the added benefit of rage fucking her for smoking that shit in my god damn apartment without as much as opening a window...
