Can any DR convert a couple of midi files to wav for me? I can't find a free program to do it.

I did this once with Total Recorder, but there was some background hiss and I wasn't totally happy with the results.

Well, for the rest of the story, CLICK HERE.

The undercover guy (UG) doesn't seem to be telling the whole story, either. He apparently knows WAY too much about what things "mean", it seems to me.

And does UG want us to believe that the Senator, who is undoubtedly guilty of what he "pled guilty" to, was doing all this with NO ENCOURAGEMENT from UG? No signs or gestures from him (UG)?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm

I have and use Audacity and you can import a midi file and then export it as a wav. If you want to send me a file JR I can do it as well and you can see which sound quality you like better.

Isn't it his job to know the meaning of those "signals?" To my simple way of thinking, this really doesn't seem any different than undercover cops posing as prostitutes or drug dealers. But, that's just my $.02.

I don't have any cake, but I did buy a Reese's Peanut Butter and Banana Cream cup from the vending machine just because it had Elvis' picture on it.

You found a peanut butter cup with Elvis on it? You could probably sell that on E-bay.

Maybe. But it feels like one of the cups inside is squooshed a bit.

Oh! I meant to say that Elvis' picture is on the wrapper--not the cup itself. Now that would definitely sell on eBay.

You are probably correct.

That said, this knowledge most likely included doing something to indicate he might be available to the senator.

I find it hard to believe otherwise.

After all, cops posing as prostitutes or drug dealers are actually doing things to encourage someone to make an offer. They bust those who offer money for sex or drugs.

So...what did this airport policman do to encourage Craig?

Nope. The picture of Elvis is printed on the wrapper. It's part of a promotion that Reese's is doing - we've got one of those cardboard stands filled with the candies near one of the registers at the store.

RE: Big brother

live feeds spoilers

Apparently they let the houseguests watch tonight's POWER of 10 episode with dani and amber. They weren't allowed to talk about what they saw. But apparently daniele was crying afterwards. People are speculating that she saw that nick was on the show (to be her helper). But that she didn't know it (they are guessing she didn't advance).

So speculation is that amber maybe won something.

Btw, re: DR RonP's comments about why america dislikes amber. I personally think it was because of her comments and not because of any deal with daniele, or because of the way they depict her as dumb. Although it could very well be a combination. However, i saw her numbers go to 0.5% the day after her story broke on the news (which is why i attributed her lack of popularity to her comments).

I think the only thing the UC did was just sitting in the stall. The Senator was caught as part of crackdown on lewd conduct at the airport. The Senator was not a specific target in the operation. Maybe the Senator had had some "luck" there on a previous visit, and this time, his intended pick-up happened to be an UC.

Again, "innocent until proven guilty" - and we have yet to hear the Senator's full story - but judging from the police report, it seems that the Senator was being a bit persistent. And if he did indeed block the front part of his stall with his bags, as well as put foot in the area of the stall next to him, well...

Of course, there were probably other people arrested in this operation, but since Mr. Craig happens to be a Senator, well...

*And when the police bust online pedophiles, the "child" is doing nothing either to encourage the predator except for posing as a child.
