Comment: Another week - another episode. Seems I just blink my eyes and I am climbing the steps to the broadcast studios of WFMU each week. I hope you have been following these Occupy Wall Street shows. I realize it is not something that everyone is interested in and I hope I am not alienating anyone. Since I love to do on-the-street interviews, OWS has provided me with a great opportunity to get inside something vital, exciting and ever-changing. As for myself, I started as an observer and have ended up getting a bit caught up in it along the way. Not sure where it;s leading, but I guess I am along for the ride and am hoping for the best. I hope you'll continue to tune-in. I'm sure that soon I'll do more music shows, theme shows. stories, live stuff, Triumvirate, etc. ----- Hope you are surviving the holiday hectic-ness. Life is good! Until next time, my friends, Take care and ... Always Remember. Clay Pigeon - NYC PS - Drop me an email (nooooo!) I'd love to hear your thoughts on OWS or any subject of interest to you. My mailbox has been cobweb-laden of late. OK. That's all.
