Stayed Of Execution

Good news! Bad news! Someone put cheese on my sandwich news!

Yes, kind floorboards, "The War On Sailing" radio show has been renewed on KVRX 91.7 fm Austin for another few months. We campaigned against it. We made a viral video with a virus in a music video, but to no avail. It seems too much of a good thing is not important in this grey area we are starting to call "Obama's America." I don't want to have to keep up, but I suppose I shall.

This time around we'll be "pulling out all the stops." By which I mean, the buses will not stop in the regular places. Why? All the bus stops have been pulled out. It'll be smooth sailing for the bus, from the garage & back. It no longer even needs to stop at red lights. It's a worry-free bus. Like the bus in "Speed." Without the bomb or Keanu Reeves.

Which is my way of saying that "The War On Sailing," once very nearly listenable, may yet be. & we have something of a chore ahead of us, as the show will air on Sunday mornings from 7 to 9am Central Standard Time, when the only people awake are in the drunk tank from the night before (or in church - same difference). It shall be a long road & we shall limp feebly down it, only to wake up somewhere someday thinking, "Did I really just kill a hobo?"

Please listen. The rest is yet to come.
