[Kzyxtalk] MOTA: Good Night Radio show all night tonight!

Subject: MOTA: Good Night Radio show all night tonight!

Deadline to email your writing for tonight's (Friday night's) MOTA show 
is about 7pm. If you can't make that, send it whenever it's done and 
I'll read it on the radio next week. Next week is fine; I'll be in the 
Fort Bragg studio then. I'm still at Juanita's tonight. You can always 
tell where I am because, from Juanita's, the show starts with Kevin 
MacLeod's /Scheming Weasel/, and I'm talking quietly, my mouth right on 
the mic, as if speaking to a small child sitting in my lap, to not wake 
up everybody in the building; when I'm in Fort Bragg, I can be louder 
and more uneven, people can call on the phone, and the show starts with 
the Paul Whiteman Orchestra, /Happy Feet/.

Tonight's show will include all the usual features, and long stories by 
all the regulars, who are getting more regular than ever before. When I 
was little, lying on the couch in my grandmother's house, watching Outer 
Limits;Twilight Zone; The Honeymooners; Astro Boy; Gigantor; Fireball 
XL-5; Lawrence Welk; Steve Allen; Beany and Cecil; Lambchop and the 
others on teevee (my absolute favorite was Outer Limits), waiting for 
the adults to come back from the restaurant across the alley, one of the 
ads that often appeared on all three channels was all about how to avoid 
suffering from occasional irregularity. When I asked my mother or my 
grandmother what that was about, they told me it had something to do 
with not pooping on time. Which was hilarious. Of course that couldn't 
be it, they made that up for a joke, and I appreciated it and didn't 
pursue the matter. /Not pooping on time!/ So funny. ("Boys always think 
farts are funny." -Anthony Hopkins in Hearts in Atlantis)

Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio is every Friday, 9pm to 5am on 107.7fm 
KNYO-LP Fort Bragg as well as anywhere else via KNYO.org. Also the 
schedule is there for KNYO's many other even more terrific shows.

Furthermore, any day or night you can go to 
https://MemoOfTheAir.wordpress.com and hear my last week's MOTA show. By 
Saturday night I'll put the recording of tonight's show there. And 
besides all that, there you'll find a number of educational items to 
peruse and manipulate until showtime, or any time, such as:

The color out of space.

Rerun: What the different colors of urine signify.

And you have a bag of black letters and red letters and no punctuation 
marks. You can put anything you want to on that marquee sign. Do it, and 
then share it. I'll start: In alternating black and red caps: ALL THESE 
WORLDS ARE YOURS EXCEPT EUROPA ATTEMPT NO LANDINGS THERE (Leave two 
spaces between EUROPA and ATTEMPT.) Now you.
