Our local PBS station is supposed to be showing Stevie Ray Vaughn and Albert King in Session here shortly. I will be watching, but come pledge time the mute button will be employed.

I used to work the pledge drives so it's fun to see who is still doing it. To far to drive now.

Hey, if the PBS & NPR honchos can lunch at the sidewalk bistros in Georgetown, how tough can this really be?

You are lucky. Mine keeps running and re-running a special about the joys of having attention deficit disorder (!), along with the Suz Orman and Les Mis on repeat. I would much rather they ran Doc Martin re-runs on a continuous loop. I’m still not giving them any money.

I’ve got about 10 years of those behind me either in the studio or all those playbacks during those breaks.

The best thing for me was the assortement of catered goodies in the spring begathon and the rotation of Hardees between burgers, dogs, and roastie-beefie during winter begathon.

Hopefully Nikki H. will carry through on her proposal to axe ETV here in SC. The funny part was that ETV carried her state of the state address live when she said it. I would love to have a recording of all the shrieks over the headsets.
