I thought I would chime in and let all y'all know that I may be perhaps appearing on "Konspiracy Korner" tonight if I am brave enough.

It's at Hollow Earth Radio.

Prepare for swearing -- I guess. . .

9 PST

I may be getting a history show there on Sundays soon btw, as well. I'll be bringing in a bunch of old timers and stuff. Trying to rescue history.

Wish me luck!

Well, I appeared on the show alright.

All I can say is, is that what a great tool RI is. The host wasn't aware of anything I brought up. Not his fault. But, being a denizen here certainly helps in general knowledge. I'm trying to find an archive of it, but it is not available yet. I think I'll be appearing same time, same bad channel next week.

Oh, I was also told to "try not to use language" after I did it a couple of times. I F-bomb so much, "Jesus Christ" this, goddamn that. It was so hard to not talk naturally. But even the very few times I did "swear" it was noted by the host. I really don't know how to talk or express myself any other way when I get into speculation mode. Oh well. . .

Well done!

I had a very sweary housemate and was turning into one by osmosis; it was still going on even after he felt. So I mentally rehearsed replacing the swears with really anodyne replacements.

"fucking smeghead neocon twatting pukesticks"

became

"Oh Gee!, those naughty naughty neocons and their shenanigans"

It really works - your friends may give you very strange looks for a couple of days, by the end of which you could debate politics with Karl Rove and remain swear free. :mrgreen:

I love that idea! Hope you get the Sunday slot!

I like your Seattle archive stuff too, reminds me of when I worked in the archives of a university library. During slow times---and it was a quiet place---I'd roll through microfilms of old newspapers (we didn't have no fancy computers back then) just to browse for unusual or forgotten news bits and get a feel for the time period.

I did the same thing when my son was small. Miniature sailors are NOT amusing. Well, they kinda sorta are, until you take them in public.

This will be fun when you archive it.
