I listened to all of about 5 minutes of NPR during the whole week - now that's a vacation. Anyway, had safe travels, fished for trout, tubed down a river and swam in the ocean. Enjoyed reading all the comments in the Q Tips when I got back.
Welcome back from your therapeutic recovery programme, sir!
Just think, no matter what we all are doing, NPR's workin' overtime to deliver their product to the needy masses. Opium-filled tarts for us to gnaw on. Once hooked, audiences are trapped, and have no choice but to follow helplessly along (except for us at this here blog, and the growing millions who are 'on' to NPR's propaganda trip, that is).
No, I haven't been reading Huxley or Orwell this past weekend. I watched 'Woodstock', baby!
On the original soundtrack Jefferson Airplane does "Volunteers" but in the recent issue that song is gone. Talk about "militancy".
To blow my own horn? In the Hendrix clip, and the John Sebastian clip (Darling Be Home Soon)
There was a discussion in NPR about the Parable of the Hot Dogs. That print hangs in my living room and I am on the far left with my head in my arms trying to grab some sleep. Blue/white long-sleeved shirt.
I spent the week-end smokin, watching the film and listening to soundtrack. Every so often I would throw water on myself and then roll around a bath tub filled with mud. Gonna go to Woodstock 5.0.
My name is Matthew Murrey and I'm from Florida, but have been living in the Midwest since 1984. I started this blog because no one else was blogging NPR's drift toward the right - and it made more sense than yelling at the radio.
"Q Tips" is an open thread post where you can place general comments or brief notes about NPR.
Comment Guidelines
I make every effort not to interfere with comments - BUT I will generally delete violent, gratuitously vulgar, or obscene posts. I realize it can be a subjective judgment call. Even when you're really angry, try to play nice.

Just curious.

Welcome back btw MyT. You can spend 4 days in space but when you return it's the same damn disgrace at NPR.
