Subject: MOTA: Live from Franklin St. all night tonight!

Deadline to email your writing for tonight's (Friday night's) MOTA show 
is about 6pm. Or send it whenever it's done and I'll read it on the 
radio next week. There's always another week and there's no pressure.

I'm in the 325 N. Franklin studio (next to the Tip Top bar) tonight. To 
call and read your work in your own voice, the number is 707-962-3022. 
If you want to come in and do it in person, that's okay, Be advised that 
I'm not putting on a mask until you show up, and you have to wear one 
the whole time, and then /I/ have to keep mine on for a few hours after 
you leave. So if it has to be in person, that's okay, but I'd prefer 
that you call instead. First preference: email your story. Second place: 
call and read your story over the phone and maybe chat for a few 
minutes. Third place: Come in and contaminate my life with your germs 
and maybe bring your instrument and play some music. Either way, if you 
just naturally swear in conversation or writing or singing, wait till 
after 10pm, so not to agitate the weasels.

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.

The /real/ sportsball halftime show: the ASL translator. I like that the 
sign for /money/ is you slap one hand with the back of the other hand 
and scowl Italianly. Also I remember the original weird video for this 
song where the singer drives around in a convertible with two other 
singers, with the entrunked kidnapped girlfriend of the man who, we 
presume, owes her some money, and they stop in various places in America 
and let her out and torture her a little, then they eventually bring her 
back to the guy and kill him and get their money... Oh-- no, I think I 
have it confused for /Bitch Better Have My Money/. That's a different 
popular song entirely. Never mind. (via Everlasting Blort)

Lennon be bangin', yo. (That's how kids talk now.)

And a deep lesson about public domain images and films that begins with 
historical footage adulterated with the Getty Images watermark. This 
project reminds me of the BBC mini-series /Shooting The Past/, that you 
should find and see. Like this lesson, /Shooting The Past/ requires the 
attention span that people used to have, so give it a try and if you 
can't stand it, no harm done.

p.s. Last time I looked, donations are approaching the $5000 goal toward 
getting KNYO's antenna back up to full height after the disaster and 
replacing some crucial equipment with new stuff that has that delicious 
/new radio smell/. I know times are tough, but if you have a little 
money left over in your life, go to KNYO.org, click on the big red heart 
and help out. At KNYO no managers or other parasites take even a penny 
of your money for themselves. It all goes to keep the machinery of radio 
dry and connected and radiating and legal.
