Also, calling it now, Howard's interview with Cain will be completely toothless.

It seems like they had a guy doing a Cain impression. Might have been the same guy who does Billy Crystal "not fun, not funny".

If it's the same Herman Cain that called in with a message for Robin it will be straight up un-listenable for me. That guy was awful.

Ralph is working on some lovely digital magazine app for the ipad and wanted to use one of the pictures Howard took at that geek convention (or whatever is was) from last week for the cover.

Ralph wants Howard to just send him all the pics and he will take it from there.

Howard said gently caress you, I'm an true artist, tell me what resolution you need the pic to be and I'll touch a few up and send them to you.

Ralph has no clue what resolution it needs to be, of course.


The entire argument is dumb.

Vakal covered most of it - the bitching started because Howard wanted to know what size prints Ralph wanted to use on his website.

This is the portion that irritated me the most, Howard the ack ack Expert getting all bent out of shape because Ralph wouldn't tell him if he wanted wallet or headshot size and couldn't choose a frame style. For the images for his website.

Howard was talking about "8 and a half by 11", not once was resolution mentioned.

"We have photoshop too, basically send any loving size jpg with "largest u got" being the preferred size and we'll take it from there", is what Ralph was saying.

I hate to agree with Ralph but he is Howard retarded? He's taking photography lessons and he still doesn't have a handle on print versus web?

I'm a script monkey and network guy and its been 10 years since I even looked at any kind of graphic software other then Picasa. Even I know there are settings on the menu for Save As that let you choose quality for print or web.

EDIT: Howard reminds me of the people that give jpg or bmp files to sign makers and tshirt shops and can't understand why they need a better format.

Drink up comrades
Howard is a photographer who uses photoshop. Not a computer user who does photography. He doesn't work in media, he is only the king of it, so he has other people worry about megabytes and resolutions.

But you can work in print and use inches instead of pixels, most print places use that term and Ralph's app magazine uses who knows whatever, I'd guess native resolution ipad? Why would he need it bigger?

If I'm not mistaken, Langford went to a news station in NYC. I remember hearing him on at the tail end of the summer on terrestrial, and was very, very confused.

100% Agreed. To compound the sadness, Benjy is the closest thing we're getting to an Artie replacement on the Stern show, Period.

He's the youngest person on the show by 10 years, he actively writes, he's out pursuing relationships and experiences and he works a gimmick angle that brings attention to the show.

This isnt a defense of him in any way, I hate the guy. But when you compare it to a married 60 year old, a 60 year old destined to die a spinster, and a (50ish? Fred?) married father. Benjy is the closest to the "everyman" demographic they've got. Pathetic.

On another note, this Eric the Midget thing has to be faked, right? Theres no way that him and/or Fratto can be delusional enough to think that a 4 line, walk on part deserves 5 Star accommodations and a stretch limo? It has to be a promotional deal and everyone is in on the angle to get In Plain Sight named on the air daily, right?

Yes the Eric the Midget bit is fake, you can tell by his bad acting and loving up everything. He even said a few times "Well Fratto put that in to be funny".

Eric knows what he is doing now, but he also still doesn't know, if that makes sense. I'm finding it funny because he is ruining the bit because he is Eric the Midget and he ruins everything.

That's like what, 3 or 4 fake stories running on the show this week?
