eight-hour-long Memo of the Air: Good Night Radio show on KNYO.org, on

89.3fm 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:
Eye contact with a humpback whale. There was a Doctor Who episode about
a space whale with a whole space UK strapped onto it, and a Torchwood
episode where gangster meatpackers get ahold of a crashed
warehouse-filling space whale and cut meat out of it for sale, while
it's alive, looking at them.

The Amboy Dukes - Journey to the Center of the Mind.

The Multilingual Wheel of Missing Emotions (via Perfect For Roquefort
Cheese). I notice there are many more words for longing and melancholy
than there are for self-disgust and shame. Break into groups and
discuss. Also check out the Mood Grid.

And "Good Lord!" (I hear this in my head in the musical rumbly deep
voice of the late Gordon Black saying, "GAD!" (short for GADZOOKS!)
