I’m sure there are a lot of bad beaver puns around that house.

As in "That's a bad beaver?"
Or as in "That's a bad 'beaver pun'?"

Our high school started this program where kids could be "technology assistants." Literally what that meant was going into teacher's rooms and helping them with their computers: installing shit, getting Encarta to show up on a projector instead of a monitor, stuff like that. It was the school equivalent of "get your nephew to do it, he's good with computers."

I was conscripted to do it after some unpleasantness in the computer lab. (Because of Mike Kisner and I, our class had to learn about computers by reading about them in a book for the rest of the year.) But I quickly realized that it was a free permanent hall pass and I got to use the AV room whenever the hell I wanted.

My dad worked in a planetarium, so his AV equipment was off the fucking hook. So one of the things he agreed to take home for me was a digital (digital!?) tape recorder with just about any input you could imagine. It made excellent copies.

I freaking loved WDVE, and at home I would record a lot of stuff whenever they'd have comedy cuts weekends. I'd then take those tapes into school, and then during free periods, trimmed down the recordings so that they'd have ads and other unrelated shit removed. I then made copies of those, and sold 'em to my friends. I even used a printer to print the WDVE logo onto thin card stock to act as the tape sleeve. They looked pretty damn legit.

After getting wise to this and for a handful of other reasons, they took my pass away. The guidance counselor (who more or less didn't know me from Adam except when I'd get on a disciplinarian's radar) told my dad he worries that "I'm not adequately applying myself."

@Aqua-Letifer Paulsen & Krenn were great, but the best stuff they played was from the Bob & Tom Show. Mr. Obvious Show was one of my favorites…

"...told my dad he worries that "I'm not adequately applying myself."

Great story! Did some of the teachers you had give you a standing ovation at graduation? Glad to see you go, but also wondering what the hell would happen to you. Especially the stuffed shirts.
If you remember the quote accurately, what did "adequately" mean, er, maybe you should have charged more.

When Karla said “check out this beaver!” yesterday, I certainly didn’t expect this…
