We in Canada prefer to employ our duck tape to that greatest

gamefowl if they would mind.

The creek did freeze over last night, and though the sun is up,

it is not high enough over the trees, to have any effect on the

thawing.

That is your urban farm report for the time being.

Yes, Doug. The only problem is that RIGHT NOW there's SO MANY choices of stuff being streamed that I hardly ever think of listening to archived material (let alone hard media such as CDs or even 78s).

Just last month while killing time on Spring St. in Newton NJ, I stumbled on a studio where DJs were streaming NewtRadio, a service that was just days old. From the storefront & the shelves of CDs, I'd thought it was a record store! NewtRadio's pretty good too, 24/7 with a majority of it live DJed; it's primarily to promote the Newton Theater, a venerable art house. It's sort of the reverse of what you did with Monty Hall, in that they were a performance space and opened a Webcast project across the street & down the block from them.

Weird musical moment after Danny's show last night. Collage by Three Degrees -- a cover of something from The James Gang I was unfamiliar with -- came on the stream. The sung melody and cadence of the thing was really familiar...so similar to some harder rock thing, what what what was it..? Finally realized it sounds like BOC's Godzilla! The Three Degrees singing something quite reminiscent of Godzilla...'at's a head tilter.
