Subject: Netiquette for stroonzes.

/"Never buy pants or a car in the rain."/

The recording of last night's (2021-03-05) Memo of the Air: Good Night 
Radio show on KNYO-LP Fort Bragg is right here:

The little bit you hear at the beginning of the recording is the very 
end minute of an NPR piece by David Rakoff and Jonathan Goldstein about 
written correspondence between Gregor Samsa (of Kafka's /The 
Metamorphosis/) and Dr. Seuss, which you can look up using those very 
terms and learn about, or merely hear all of  just here:

Also, at https://MemoOfTheAir.wordpress.com there's a fresh batch of 
not-necessarily-radio-useful but worthwhile items that I set aside for 
you while gathering the show together. I'm not double-checking all the 
links anymore. I used to even set each one individually to open a new 
tab, which added like twenty minutes or more to the process, right at 
the point where I'm /so done and over with/ that particular show and 
ready to put on the spaghetti and meatballs and start working on next 
week's. Now I am loathe to even spellcheck. If something's wrong, 
though, let me know and I'll swat it with the electric moth-exploding 
badminton racket I got in Japantown for $2 a couple of years ago that 
actually still works, with the original battery, yet. Juanita and I were 
in San Francisco for some other reason and went in there, and... it was 
a phantasmagorical brightly lit vast tight maze of delights. A 
water-filled bird-sound whistle with a clock in the side. Propeller 
beanie-caps where you press both ears and the top whirs off and up into 
the air. Brands of candy that you haven't seen since 1964. Bluetooth 
napkin rings with dental floss inside. A zigzag pair of pliers to ply 
around corners. Levels you can adjust to exact angles other than level. 
Now I wanta go back there, but I’m sure it’ll be like in Twilight Zone, 
where there isn’t even space for a store in that place, much less the 
right store, and you ask around and nobody knows what you’re talking 
about, but the camera pulls back and up so there are two space aliens 
with giant bulbous butt-shaped ice-cream-cone heads, seen from behind in 
a fog, silently watching you on the interocitor.) Anyway:

Fretless funk, Sean Angus Watson.

And ten levels of sleight of hand.

p.s. Email me your written work and I'll read it on the radio on the 
very next MOTA. That's what I'm here for.
