Same great entertainment, off-season rates

Ellen DeGeneres: I've had lots of boyfriends.
Dave Letterman: Am I late for this party?

Newly archived radio program: Same great entertainment, off-season rates.
Lots to recommend. The Brothers Johnson cut will immediately transport you back 30 years. Henry Brant's music portrait of Harpo Marx. Steve MacLean (combed the WFMU shelves finding this one again), Ornette, Nigerian Army Rhythm Group, the Stylistics LP song, Steve Reid, Charles Ives, "May My Heart Be Cast Into Stone" by The Toys.

The Bush/Cheney/Rumsfeld media "counteroffensive" is so lame. No doubt planned well before the election, it was tastelessly, badly timed to begin on Veteran's Day, Bob Woodward's confession pushed it off the blogs, tornadoes blew it away in the midwest; Bush promptly flew off to Asia, which barely registered in the East as A-Rod & the weather grabbed the headlines. Nobody can look at Cheney now without wondering if our Vice President betrayed a CIA agent.
