It was Ian's show about DB Cooper that got my attention. Also it amazed me that Ian would barely sleep for several days. He would do Coast to Coast from the radio studio in his home, then after would drive to the local radio station to do a 4 hour morning show plus turn up to appear at local charity events in the evening. Sadly he had to quit radio due to tinnitus.

I only started listening to Coast to Coast when Ian Punnett would stand in for Art Bell. Ian was a local DJ in the Twin Cities before he moved to Arizona a few years ago.

Ronald Chesney has died. Will dig out a link when I can.

Over a foot of snow fell here in Minneapolis between Friday night and up until late this afternoon.

YAY! My first hit of the year. Elevated to the heady heights of joint 205th. Thanks to Spade Cooley for doing another update for today.

Art Bell has died. Now all I need is a QO, and I get my first hit of the year.

Tom Lehrer who has been mentioned several times in the past, celebrates his 90th birthday today.

Here's a list of few companies that are struggling

To give you a rough idea of my age, the first gig I attended was Bauhaus at Hammersmith 1983

I"m flattered to be listed as one of the "younger ones"

Even with the 10% off, can still find them cheaper elsewhere. Too bad, I was hoping they'd slash their prices.

Ugh

Sources in the White House state that Trump is already distancing himself from Saccone. Calling him a "weak candidate". In other news yesterday, Trump wants to start a Space Force. It's similar to Air Force, but would operate outside the Earth's atmosphere .

Stanley Baxter

He was having a hip replacement. He wouldn't have been doing much in the way of either walking or running.

Just heard that Nokie Edwards of The Ventures has passed away at the age of 82. Will post a link once I find one.

They did a nice little tribute for him before the start of today's match.

I try to pick my battles. At the moment I am waging war against "ATM machine", "hot water heater", and "today's soup du jour".

Took my son to Toys-R-US earlier so he could see if the new Lego Marvel Avengers sets had been released. Saw this on the door on the way out.

Damn. I could find no listing of her dying when I researched this at the end of December.
