PLAYLIST FOR “GHOSTS AND GOBLINS AND WITCHES AND SPELLS” (10.27.12)

29 Oct

Don’t you love Halloween traditions? Like songs about ghosts and witches and spells; and hurricanes that change the geography of the East Coast and turn off the electricity for at least a week. I prefer the tradition of killing people with a tossed handful of flour rather than with hurricanes. Let’s cancel this modern-day tradition for next year, okay?

Don’t know for certain if there will be a live show this coming Saturday. Watch this space for updates.

And while you’re here, click on Thanksgiving Show to see if you’d like to make a musical contribution to the show.

PLAYLIST FOR TRIBUTE TO THE PREPOSITION (2.18.12)

19 Feb

Tonight’s Turntable for One, a lesson in the proper use of the preposition (not to be confused with the improper use of the proposition)  was another in our continuing educational series, “No Listener Left Behind.” In weeks to come, don’t miss invaluable lectures on recognizing a direct object, preferably before you hit it and examples of the passive voice in ventriloquism. You’ve been warned.
