NOW I remember *why* I goofed up those *2* cuts, Mud.
The damned CD's mislabeled!!
Not on the liner/jewel case but on the *CD* itself; so, when ya load it the titles readout incorrectly.
I'm a bit of a machine myself when burning a pile of songs to *a* CD so I tend to trust what I'm reading when choosing what to xfer into the pre-burn quo; hence, the *error*.

IF you've got a CD copy of Tull's "Benefit," you should check it out and especially if you've Roxio software.
Weird.

Now, if you DO you have CD burner software & it is Roxio's {spit} "EZ CD Creator" Ver 6 (or lower), then here's what *you* could do to right the error(s).
On CD 7:17 xfer the CD contents into the "Label Creator" section, then, edit #17 to read "Teacher."
Print it out & trim it and voila'...one down.

As for #12 -- & this assumes you've EZCD Creator -- you can burn cuts 1 through 11 to a new CD.
Next burn the *real* "Inside".
Then burn cuts 13 through 17 & close that sucker up and when the program prompts whether you want to open the "Label Creator" answer "yes" & then under the "Tools" pillion select "Add CD Contents" which'll add what's on it -- with edit -- to the print que.

Make certain you're selecting "white" for color, no background & the correct fonts which're as follows:
1) Song titles & artists = Arial #10pt
2) CD Name (EMA) = Edwardian Script #48pt & 'centered'
3) Volume # = Stellar #28pt & 'centered'

That's it.

"Well good, 'cuz I'm dedicating that song to you in honor of all the great teaching you've done over the years."

Wow, that's very nice of you my friend.
I'm honored considering *who* said that, y'know. ;^)

"Hopefully, you'll agree that any short-term losses we perceive--like raising the debt limit [AGAIN] and this silly proposal to give amnesty to folks who wantonly ignore our immigration laws--can be made short-lived if RightWingers fight to win Dubyuh's Presidency with the same energy we fought to win his reelection!!"

*Hopefully* the operative word.
I'm not so sure that any of those things -- & more -- will be done to my/our satisfaction, I mean if history counts for anything?

Still, I know how I feel about those issues and I believe I'm aligned with you, as for what the man actually does in his second term is, of course, totally up to him because when we voted for him we gave him the power to run this government as he sees fit.
That means -- to me, anyway -- he runs it whther or not I understand or particularly agree with what he decides.
And *that'll* be the tough part for me, where I'll have to put-up or shut-up.

>Of course that assumes the correct song's being played -- in my mind -- while reading your lyrics, eh?
"Heh heh heh...it's EMA#12.12."

HA!!
You're a mensch, Mud. ;^)

.Man you really cranked that sucker out in record time, too. ...you've become a regular *machine*.
Tain't been in much of a "machine" mood lately..."

I hadn't been either, until I got away from cyber space for a bit & then all kinds of perspective & inspiration came flooding back.
Like I said, I knocked out 7 EMAs in the time it'd normally have taken to do *2*.

Have a *lot* on my mind, what-with our closing on the new place Dec 6th and then actually supervising the movers packing & loading on the 6th, 7th & 8th then meeting 'em to unload no later than the 10th.
Getting too old for this crap, but knew if I didn't make as many EMAs as possible now, it might be months before I get back to 'em.

...but the bosses let me off early this afternoon so I had a little free time and yer song inspired me..."

You're probably extra-relieved to have a nice long 4 day holiday starin' ya in the mug.
Nothing like the thought of idle time to stimulate a little optimism.

"...funny how often that has happened over the years."

There, you're doing it again. {g}

~eh, you, Mrs Mud & the shrimp-kins have a wonderful Thanksgiving.

...y'hear? ;^)

IMHO, Dubyuh's second term will go a long way in determining the future of the Republican Party. Sure, Americans have entrusted the GOP with a lot of Power in this latest election...and I believe we can make further gains in 2006 if Dubyuh and the House Republicans have their way. However, if Dubyuh tries to TRIANGULATE and win over the RATS by implementing their Socialist Agenda, then all bets are off and I can foresee the conservatives going third party in a big way in 2008. Dubyuh must lead this country to the Right fer the next four years...fer his own good, the good of the Party, and the Good of the Nation!!

Moving's a BEE-ahhhtch, ain't it?! When I was growing up, our Navy family moved every three years or so, so I got used to it. However, since I moved to Richmond in '85, all my moves have been local, and I never really had that much stuff until I got married. We're in a good school district now, and the house is big enuff fer the four of us, so I hope another move ain't required fer awhile. Based on the mess our garage and attic have become, I think moving would be a major inconvenience.

Good luck...and I'll make sure to get your "package" out in time to find you before you move...but I do hope you'll send me a forwarding address nonetheless...LOL!!
