Subject: "Oh, real mature, Donnie!"

Marco here. Here's the recording of last night's (2025-04-18) 
7.5-hour-long Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio show on 107.7fm KNYO-LP 
Fort Bragg (CA) and also, for the first three hours, on KAKX Mendocino, 
ready for you to re-enjoy in whole or in part:

Coming shows can feature your own story or dream or poem or essay or 
kvetch or announcement. Just email it to me. 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:

Jacob Collier, crowd musician. The Wild Mountain Thyme video! My head 
hurts from crying so hard at this. The good kind of crying: wow and ow 
at the same time.

Traditional Ukrainian egg decorations. With video.

A mathematical paean to A4 paper and dismissal of all others. Though, to 
be fair, an 11 by 17 folds in half to make two perfect 8-1/2 by 11s.

A sexy ad for a special appliance for women warfigher jet pilots to 
tactical-warfightingly pee into when on long missions burning a hogshead 
of jet fuel per minute in an airplane that costs a hundred million 
dollars, that has to land sometime, where it can be taken out by a 
fifty-dollar toy drone with a grenade in it. A man could always just pee 
into a Snapple bottle and then later childishly put it back on the 
shelf, so this equifies the profession somewhat. Further, it wouldn't be 
too hard nor much more expensive to add pleasure functions to the pee 
thing. It can already suck; it could vibrate; it could send out 
undulating tentacles and crawl around; it could growl.

And lovingly restoring a 1958 Grundig Party-Boy, said to be the most 
beautiful radio ever made. They don't make 'em like that anymore. Radios 
lately are indistinguishable from a jet pilot pee thing, see above, and 
cars all look like robot tennis shoes. (15 min.)
