[Kzyxtalk] Mr. Toad's wild ride.

/"The most regretful people on earth are those who felt the call to 
creative work, who felt their own creative power restive and uprising, 
and gave to it neither power nor time." -Mary Oliver/

Here's the recording of last night's (2022-09-23) Memo of the Air: Good 
Night Radio show on 107.7fm KNYO-LP Fort Bragg (CA):

Thanks to Hank Sims for all kinds of tech help, as well as for his fine 
news site: https://LostCoastOutpost.com

Thanks to the Anderson Valley Advertiser, which provided almost an hour 
of that 8-hour show's most locally relevant material, as usual, without 
asking for anything in return. Just $25 a year for full access to all 
articles and features (TheAVA.com). And consider wee bravely struggling 
KNYO itself. Long may it wave. Even longer if you were to help out via 
the big red donation heart. For example KNYO needs to replace an 
important piece of equipment soon that probably will cost about $400. 
But a small radio station is one of the very few institutions where you 
can solve any problem by throwing a little money at it. https://KNYO.org

Here's a link to my dream journal project that I resurrected on Medium a 
couple of years ago and have been sporadically keeping up. Sometime, 
maybe Sunday or so, I'll post another batch of dreams, but there's 
plenty there new to you if you haven't been for awhile.*

BESIDES ALL THAT, at https://MemoOfTheAir.wordpress.com you'll find a 
fresh batch of dozens of links to not necessarily radio-useful but 
nonetheless worthwhile items I set aside for you while gathering the 
show together. Such as:

The shoebill. It sounds like a military drum tattoo. Or a small Suzuki 
motorbike. Or using a electric jigsaw on metal that's not clamped down 
properly. But the way it looks at you, tch, I feel like that could be 
me. I mean, I might look like this to other people. At public events I 
have had the experience of being ordered to smile, so I have a sense of 
what women might feel like when that happens to them. It doesn't make 
you want to smile; at that point you'd sooner strangle the person. With 
your great big yellow-gray webbed hand-feet, and that look in your eye. 
And just shake them around like a sock full of bloody pennies, 
shooka-shooka-shooka, and slam them on the deck like the Hulk did to 
Loki in /The Avengers/. Of course you wouldn't actually do that, because 
you couldn't. This is why it's a bad idea for people to have a gun. 
Somebody pisses them off and all they have to do is wiggle their finger 
and they've killed someone who said, "Smile, honey. C'mon, give us a smile."

A whole 1960s teevee series of folk music, when that was a big deal. 
Walk right in, sit right down, Daddy, let your mind roll on.

And water music.

*Email me your work on any subject, it doesn't have to be a dream, and 
I'll read it on the radio next Friday night.
