'Cile, I was thinking along similar lines. I had come back in from outside, and thought maybe Doug had been kidnapped and hurriedly replaced by Evan Davies. I actually bought that "Sexual Life" CD in anticipation of a trip to Sao Paolo. The trip fell through, but the CD sounds great. | |

Yes, Chris ,welcome to a rather fine place. For years I've been asking if there's anything else quite like like on this planet. No suggestions so far .. As addictions go, this Friday fix is one to just give in to. | |

Fri. 1/23/09 11:17am
Parq:
Chris, welcome, and say goodbye to your other interests for a while. Paul, I've been around long enough to say with some authority that only FMU is FMU. Last year's April-Fool switcheroo with a Bay Area freeform station proved that nothing else comes close. And gang, let's not forget that marathon time is nigh. | |

|
Fri. 1/23/09 11:20am

Doug, to sound like a true Latin American DJ, you need to add some reverb everytime you announce the songs. | |
|
Fri. 1/23/09 11:22am

Yes, the marathon is something else. I caught a whiff of that mayhem back in 06 - during the Doug and Monica shows ... | |
