Comment: Thanks for listening to this episode of The Dusty Show. Prior to air-time, I was going to simply play a 52-minute recorded version of '20,000 Leagues Under The Sea' because I was feeling poorly. But, attention-hogg that I can be, I decided to giev it a go with Fabio in tow and see what we could come up with for an hour. I do notice that listener comments were scant for this show compared to normal, indicating the show was kind of a dud, and I would concur, no offense to callers, whom are always appreciated. If I'm going to be honest, I'd have to say that I have dropped the ball in the last couple of weeks, since scaling back my Occupy Coverage. I admit to having been very busy with life and feeling the need to recharge batteries to a degree. Hard to explain, but I do feel a kind of guilt that I have shortchanged you a little, and for that I apologize. Hopefully I'll be able to ramp it up as the coming weeks unfold, although, with Summer, I do like to experiment a little, relax a little, tell some stories, etc. I hope you'll stay with me and see where it leads. As for Duel In The Dirt, have I read it before? Maybe. I didn't think I had, but my wife thought I did. I read THIS version just prior to broadcast and enjoyed it. ideally, I'd liked to have put background music and sound FX with it, but it didn't work out that way. I should mention that story is inspired by the dirt track racing days of my youth. My family would often attend dirt track races on weekends, rooting for our favorite, The Flying Farmer, Lloyd Jorgensen of Audubon, Iowa. I'm sure he is the inspiration for Hod Blankenship. And as for Dickie Deems, he is the written embodiment of a driver named Mike Chapman of Whiting, Iowa, who did drive a car with an 'X' painted on the side. Those were fun times. The track is closed these days, overgrown with weeds. It's always remembered though ... on Dusty. Clay P - NYC First Day of Summer - 2012 Love to you all.
