[Kzyxtalk] The case of Traish LaRue v. El Escorpion.

The case of Traish LaRue v. El Escorpion.

"You may ask, how did this tradition get started? I’ll tell you, I 
dunno. But it’s a tradition, and because of our traditions every one of 
us knows who he is and what God expects him to do.” -Tevye (Joseph Stein)

The recording of last night's (2018-07-13) 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:

The perpetrators of TechU showed up to sing the praises of 3-D printing; 
she talked, he directed. Speaking of direction, theater essential Lorry 
LePaul read love poetry by W.S. Auden, reminisced about local theater, 
sang her high school fight song, and was persuaded to swear sweetly at 
me in accurately accented Dutch; something about shoes. Joshua SlowCode, 
honking blues master with a tattoo of a peace-sign banjo on the back of 
his hand since high school in the 1960s, brought an antique flexi-disk 
to play, from a crumbling cardboard learn-to-play-the-banjo kit. And the 
station was visited by the lovely Michelle 99 (her real name), the 
lovely Amanda, and the lovely Lucky Otis, grandson of Johnny Otis and 
son of Shuggy Otis. Also Alex Bosworth called to tell racist Yiddish 
dirty jokes and read a couple of stories from /after/ his latest book.

And I read most of what I brought to read, too, including the latest 
installment of Elly Cooney’s several-part story /No Country For Old 
Women/, many topical items local and foreign, comical and tragic, and 
then there’s Orson Welles as /The Shadow/. Busy night at KNYO. In case 
you feel like stopping by 325 N. Franklin, next to the Tip Top Bar, 
during the coming week, the walls of the performance space are festooned 
with larger-than-life-size nude self portraits of one of Bob Young’s 
multitalented daughters, I forget her name, but she’s completely 
artistically SFW naked in there, so come and look.

Also at http://MemoOfTheAir.wordpress.com you'll find a fresh batch of 
links to not necessarily radio-useful but nonetheless worthwhile items I 
set aside for you while gathering the show together, things where just 
hearing it wouldn't be enough. Such as:

The so-called singularity the way it will really go.
