[Kzyxtalk] Bajor for Bajorans.

/"Kirchhoff used five cans of Rustoleum Tub and Tile epoxy paint (they 
were working on two bathrooms at the same time), which cost around $250 
total. Even though there's paint in the name, it's not like the version 
you'd apply to your walls. Kirchhoff says to follow the instructions 
very carefully and, ideally, use it during warmer months so you can open 
a window and clear little ones out of the house as it stinks really, 
really bad, they say."/

Here's the recording of last night's (Friday 2024-03-15) 7-plus-hour 
Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio show on 107.7fm KNYO-LP Fort Bragg 
(CA) and KNYO.org (and, for the first hour, also 89.3fm KAKX Mendocino):

Coming shows can feature your story or dream or poem or kvetch or 
whatever. Just email it to me. Or include it in a reply to this post. Or 
send me a link to your writing project and I'll take it from there and 
read it on the air.

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

Busby Berkeley, 1943. Didn't Carmen Miranda have Jadzia Dax eyes. I just 
noticed that. (via b3ta)

Sharpest tool in the shed: lower right. As seen in /U-Turn/, starring 
Sean Penn. Whenever I use that kind of pipe cutter for PVC pipe I have 
the --I'm not sure it's the right term for it, but the instrusive 
thought of putting a thumb or a finger in it. Of course I never do it, 
but I imagine it and flinch. I remember being little, five, maybe, and 
playing with regular pliers, squeezing my hand or the skin of my arm 
until it hurt, then backing off a little and wondering about how hurt 
works. One time not long after that I was playing with pliers and the 
faucet outside the kitchen wall in the driveway, really bearing down on 
the pliers, and they slipped, so the back of the handle pinched my belly 
hard. My reaction was to look all around and make sure nobody had seen 
it happen. I never yelped or cried out in pain when I was a child. 
Things hurt and surprised me, but I would way more rather be physically 
hurt than have someone think I was stupid for doing whatever it was that 
hurt me. People were always telling me how smart I was, but I never felt 
smart, nor particularly solid, compared to others. It took my entire 
long life to grow out of that. You should hear me now when I hurt 
myself. (via Fark)

The 1936 Stout Scarab. It had a regular Ford engine in it, back to 
front, in the rear. (via Everlasting Blort)
