Sunday, January 29, 2012

Well, its not every year that January has 5 Sundays, but the 29th is the 5th one this year.  And I prepared for 4.  Which means I'm not really prepared for Sunday the 29th.   I have a couple of great interviews lined up for Feb 5, and some great music, but I have little in the way of stuff for the 29th.

Oh - I do have a Broadway Show.   Its 'Carousel".  Not the original, but  the cast from the 1965 Broadway revival.  Jerry Orbach is in this cast.  Along with Eileen Christy and Reid Shelton and Katherine Hilgenberg. And John Raitt.  I played Rodgers & Hammerstein's "South Pacific" this past Sunday, and "Carousel is another Rodgers & Hammerstein show.  "June is Bustin Our All Over"....."You'll Never Walk Alone".....great music, Sunday in the 10 o'clock hour.

Interviews on the 29th?  Still a work in Progress.  Don't give up on me.

Have your tickets to the Festival of Church Choirs?  The Festival starts at 2PM on the 29th.  Kirkland Fine Arts Center, Millikin University.

Email continues to be a source of good stuff (and some bad).  For instance...Ed & Arlene have been married for many years.   One day she asked Ed to "describe me".  Ed looked at her slowly, thought a while....and said "You're A,B,C,D,E,F,G,H,I,J,K......"   Arlene, seemingly pleased, said "what does that mean"?.   Ed said "Adorable, Beautiful, Cute, Delightful, Elegant, Foxy, Gorgeous, Hot".   And smiling, she asked "...and what about the I, J, K?". 

He said "I'm Just Kidding".

Ed's left eye is still swollen, but the doctor has informed him that he's likely to see things much more clearly in the future.

Keep the emails coming.  I use them on the air.  Its live radio.  Anything can happen.  Most  radio stations are recorded/automated on Sunday morning, but I'm there live.  And usually awake. 

Oh...did I tell you about the baseball catcher who got married?   Promised to love, honor and squat.   Or the scientist....who invented a potion to grow hair?   It was so strong it'd grow hair on a billiard ball.  Didn't work though....slowed the game down too much.

And don't forget........where ever you go - there you are!  See you Sunday.
