[Kzyxtalk] An Xmas idyll.

An Xmas idyll.

The recording of last night's (2018-12-21) 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:

Anyway, also at http://MemoOfTheAir.wordpress.com you can find a 
double-size fresh batch of links to not necessarily radio-useful but 
nonetheless worthwhile educational items I set aside for you while 
gathering the show together. Such as:

We all have something we like very much to look at and think about, 
maybe a little too much, some of us, with some things, and where’s the 
harm? I like old microphones, and I think you do too. Come on, you do. 
And there's one modeled on a stage mic in Girl Genius that’s wrapped 
around a vacuum tube, technically not old, but /look/ at it. And one 
spewing Spielbergian god-light from its grill in soft-focus like 
something in a dream. Carbon-button mics hanging in an intricate 
filigree of springs. Ribbon mics. Rocket mics. Excuse me, I'll be in my 
bunk.

This sort of behavior was exactly what management put the camera there 
to stop in the first place. /Now/ when people complain what are they 
going to do, put /more/ cameras?

And mouth-beatbox: Nicole Paris. Bass: Elin Sandberg. Drums: Helen De La 
Rosa. Pure magical happiness. It's like the Jews used to say: "The whole 
/world/ isn't crazy."
