The final show of the season. My least favorite sentence to write. I spent a couple hours handing out summer listening assignments until I’m back in the Fall. I also played some favorite goodbye songs to ease the pain of leaving plus a few songs expressing a few final thoughts before I head for the hills.
Of course since I’m getting my old summer job back, I ran through a few of the special, if not unbelievable, ice cream treats I’ll be serving up from my truck. For instance, treats like The Semi-Quincentennial Cone. Free to anyone who can say that five times fast. Or The Reflecting Pool Parfait. It starts out a beautiful bowl of blueberry sorbet, but give it a minute and it turns into a pool of algae. Giving credit where credit is due, I gave a shout-out to our Secretary of Health & Human Services for his help in creating two new treats: The Polio Popsicle and The Measles Melba. I’m also bringing back an old favorite, a combination flavor called Im-PEACH-MINT. That’s just a sample. Be sure to check out my full menu on my show on Mixcloud (Mixcloud.com/hwilliamstine) or when my truck breaks down – I mean, comes to a neighborhood near you.
AND HAVE A GREAT SUMMER, EVERYONE!
