[Kzyxtalk] You fools! I shall destroy you all! (Ask me how.)

YOU FOOLS! I SHALL DESTROY YOU ALL! (ASK ME HOW.)

Marco here. As usual, thanks to Hank Sims of Lost Coast Outpost, the 
recording of last night's (2018-03-16) 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:

This show begins with a 50-minute prerecorded interview with Merlin 
Tinker (aka Barry Weiss) on the occasion of his retirement from decades 
of fixing sewing machines, and it ends eight hours later with /Chandu 
the Magician!/ That's right. You heard right. /Chandu the Magician!/ 
It'll be Chandu the Magician on and off until Thanksgiving, at least. It 
will take that long to finally collar the evil megalomaniac Roxor, whose 
accent, like with the actress who played Alia in /Children of  Dune/, 
will be wandering all over the map, from Dracula to David Niven to Lord 
John Whorfin and back, and not because they couldn't keep the same 
performer but because they let him have fun with it. Go nuts, they said 
to him in 1949, and he was up to the task and also probably drunk the 
whole time.

Also something happened over at KMEC so the show was only on KNYO and 
not also in Ukiah, but things break and it ain’t a big deal. There’s a 
whole week to solve it before next Friday; some very smart people are 
even now peering at the problem and harrumphing professionally, young 
lady, so don't you worry your pretty little head about that.

IN OTHER NEWS, 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:

Something to simply make you feel good about people, and about our world 
and, of course, the moon.

Bird says, "Make me look hot." Okay.

And Sony’s latest photo competition winners. Hundreds of amazing 
pictures. I'm sure you remember Sony. They used to make attractive 
miniature transistor radios that weighed no more than a loaf of bread, 
in cases of leatherette cardboard with a snap that opened so you could 
replace the two differently-sized Mallory batteries. And ride on your 
grandfather's soft sweaty shoulders with baseball playing from that 
radio hanging around his neck from a lanyard, yammering away along with 
it like a woodpecker while he push-mowed a tiny Burbank front lawn in 
milky gray sandy air. I understand they've branched out since then. Tape 
recorders. Typewriters. String.
