Hello Possums!

Damn, I wish I had thought of Dame Edna before Dame Edna thought of Dame Edna. I got to see her one woman show in SF a few years ago and I laughed so hard I thought I was going to faint. I have a history of doing that. Just this past week-end something made me laugh so hard I had trouble getting my breath. I can't remember what was so amusing. It wasn't the Vikings game OR the weather.

This weather is so depressing. I got here in time to see snow and snow sucks. I am not sure how long it will take my body to adjust to this weather. Last night when I got in bed, the temperature in my bedroom was 76 degrees. That's warm...even for me. I DO, however, enjoy wasting carbon fuels and distorting my carbon footprint. Later today I intend to waste some gasoline, contribute to de-forestation in Brazil, and laugh at the poor and lame.

    Hey, Wait a minute....YOU'RE NOT DAME EDNA!!! Nice weather here. Only a day or so of rain so far. 40s to low 70s the last week or so. Have you ever seen the musical Forever Plaid? My fave. Last year they did a holiday version(Plaid Tidings) in Columbia. Really nice. I'll bother you later. K.

    Forever Plaid! Yes....saw it. I don't have the figure to be Dame Edna. I saw Aretha Franklin tonight on Dancing With The Stars and thought that mu-mu was very slimming. She did a tour about 15 years ago singing standards and it was just spectacular. Aretha was backed up by a full orchestra. Sometime in the ensuing years she ate the entire orchestra and that is why she was wearing that mu-mu. When I was working at WDGY in...perhaps 1968...Aretha Franklin did a concert in Minneapolis and I actually got to see it. I only worked at WDGY for 11 months and I didn't miss a show. I got to see her because the show was delayed for almost 2 hours because she was having a snit...or something. All I know is that we got to go backstage after and she just wasn't...well...normal. It was like she was on some massive dose of Librium. I think that was a 60's drug. Nebutol? She WASN'T drunk. Just zonked. Whatever it was gave her the munchies. Forty years of munchies! A midget circus lost its home when they made that mu-mu.

    May I make a political comment? How long before we see some change? Also, are you libs happy we won the war?

    PS Kenny -- I left the 80's for last night's 10's. All that nice weather in California I hope they raise your taxes. Well...that's going to happen whether the weather is good or bad. I actually hope your weather is good for the gay riots.

    No! Unless CA has snow I'm not in CA. Maybe Al Gore has gone all-the-way-nuts? I just woke up and to show how pathetic I am....checked my computer! I was dreaming I was working at a radio station and Mitt Romney was the General Manager. The implications are vast and complicated.

    I was so disappointed by the new Bond movie! What were they thinking? None of the "Bond Shtick" and just a lot of noisy, confusing, impossible chasing. Even Judy Dench didn't seem interested. You know it's bad when I yearn for George Lazenby(sic).

    I was thinking about the Modesto station KO93 moving the tower from on top of the mountain to the valley floor. I wonder what THEY were thinking. I think a lot of the changes made at radio stations (and in politics) are just change for the sake of change and not because something needs changing.

    I guess CC will be moving their stations and offices. St. Joseph's church bought the building from what I hear. Not a clue as to why to move the stick. Idiocy kicks me in the ass!! Semi agree on the movie. Anne and I saw it today. Lots of chases seemed to go nowhere. K.

    I didn't know who CC was.....then I figured it must be the current owners of KO93...the station I'm currently covering in MY STORY. I don't know who owns who. Who can keep track these days? It isn't radio anymore..it's greedio. I wonder which broadcaster will be the first to ask for a government 'bail out'.

    OMG! Where have I been? What are they thinking? WTF?

    All this because I saw a promo for a new show on NBC starring Rosie O'Donnell. Have you people heard of this before? She Sings!!!!! The show, World's Scariest Vagina begins next week. (I think that's the name and I think it starts next week) I rather watch Keith Olbermann dance in a canary-yellow thong in the window of Macy's right next to the Mary Tyler Moore statue during the Red Tag Sale than watch Rosie! When soon-to-be-prez Barry was elevated I thought my world was ending. Then the Vikes beat the Pack and life was momentarily good again. And now... that bitch! Damn! I'd rather slide down a razor blade banister into a bathtub of salt-water than even accidentally surf past her show. Once in San Francisco I bought a pair of 100 dollar shoes and on the second day wearing them stepped into some human poop. I tossed the shoes! I would hate to have to throw out a perfectly good High Definition television.....
