HINT:
Something on your mind you’d like to get off your chest?
I can work with that. And by the way: mix cocktails, not metaphors, okay?

HINT FOR SATURDAY NIGHT’S THEME (1.26.13)
23 JanWell if I can get over this bug and if the impending snow doesn’t bury us, I’ll be on the air twice on Saturday, Jan. 26th.
Broadway Bound 4:00 – 6:00 PM –
Host Garrett Stack is taking a week off and asked if I would sit in for him. Do I want to do a show when people are still awake? You bet! So join me for two hours of the best of Broadway, which in my mind means not one note by Andrew Lloyd Webber!
And stay up for Turntable For One 10:00 – 11:00 PM –
HINT:
Broadway singers singing jazz, or jazz singers singing Broadway – which team do you think will win? And could this challenge possibly signal a long-awaited re-birth of donkey basketball?
Tune in Saturday to find out!
