[Kzyxtalk] Rapture Monday. Make sure you turned the stove off.

Rapture Monday. Make sure you turned the stove off.

/"I can't get involved; I've got work to do. It's not that I like the 
Empire -I hate it- but there's nothing I can do about it right now, and 
that's a long way from here." -Luke Skywalker, pre-motorcycle accident/

The recording of last night's (2018-04-20) KNYO Fort Bragg and KMEC 
Ukiah Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio show is available by one or two 
clicks, depending on whether you want to listen to it now or download it 
and keep it for later and, speaking of which, it's right here:

A surprising number of people wandered in over the course of this show, 
and from all over the world –Transylvania (!), Sweden, Guatemala, 
Ireland, Kansas, Yorkville, not to mention from the art gallery across 
the street– to talk about all sorts of things, including genetically 
modified crops, toxic cosmetic products, the peat-preserved Bog People, 
third-world economies, universal health care, website management tricks, 
etc.  And I still managed to read 40,000 words of everything I brought 
to read, so if in fact the world ends on Monday as the godbothering 
numerological apocalypticians are saying, at least that much got 
accomplished. I’ve noticed how often I say /it ain’t the end of the 
world/ about something, and it interests me that now that it /is/, it 
still isn’t, to me. I truly don’t care. And now I’m off to record the 
Mendocino Women’s Choir at Eagles Hall. What a good life. How lucky I am 
and have been. That’s probably the cheap chocolate talking, though. 
We'll see how I feel when that wears off.

IN OTHER NEWS, while you’ve still got a couple of days to play with, as 
usual at http://MemoOfTheAir.wordpress.com you'll find a fresh batch of 
links to educational activities and amusements and sources of 
wonderment, such as:

The so-called leadership of America looks and sounds more and more to me 
like that famous old video of a sabotaged clothes washing machine 
pathetically banging itself apart.

Man will conquer space soon! Be-tunicked and mini-skirted men and women 
will colonize Mars by 1980. But no.
