One of the warmer days this week at work I was walking up the hill toward 39th Street after parking in the employee lot.  When it’s cold I usually go indoors as soon as I can, but if it’s above freezing, I walk up Rainbow Boulevard.  The wind was at my back, and I was in my own little world with my headphones on.  I slowed down when I saw a folded note lying on the sidewalk.  I stopped and picked it up.  It said “Bodey” with a heart drawn next to the name.  On the inside it read:
I know things are tough right now
but we’ll get through it together.
I love you and I want nothing more
than for us to be happy.
I hope you have a good day honey.
I love you. Forever.
I put it in my pocket. It felt like a warm ray of sunshine.

The sixth episode of Audio Flare Gun is available for listeners.  It is almost a 30-minute collection of soundscapes & indecipherable lyrics… well hang on, I’ve just been informed that you CAN hear the word ‘squirrel’ on the second track.  Here is a link to the cacophony.

This is Marisa.  She spins the coolest tunes and has the warmest voice on the radio in my opinion.  Marisa is the host of The Mixtape on KKFI.  The station had a pledge drive last fall, and I made a donation.  Some people make donations to get their names read on the air or to get a tote bag, t-shirt, or a coffee mug.  I made a donation that was large enough to pay for a guest DJ spot on any show of my choosing – I chose The Mixtape.  The January 9 show that I was on will be on KKFI’s archive for a few more days – you can also hear it on audioflaregun.com.  

Eddie Delahunt is a dear old friend that I haven’t seen in years — and STILL he gave me a ‘shout out’ when he was on KKFI last August.  Just hearing him say “I’d like to dedicate this to Dave Cedillo” made me smile.
