No time to have a listen just now, but I will definitely be checking out radiolovers which offers vintage radio shows in mp3 format, for free. Abbott & Costello! Boris Karloff! Buck Rogers!

like a valley cheese

BTW, Kraftwerk’s remains one of the coolest site I ever saw. As for their music, well, I always found it a litlle cheesey, but maybe it’s nicely displayed… like a cheese, eventualy it got better after some time, and prized elsewhere. (”A poet’s hope: to be, / like some valley cheese, / local, but prized elsewhere.” Auden)

Diversion

Seen here:
1. Grab the nearest book.
2. Open the book to page 23.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the text of the sentence in your journal along with these instructions.
Errh, it happened to be a dutch book, so I’ll translate:

“We age the most while we are young.”
–De Vergankelijkheid - Midas Dekkers.

I’d be interested to read your responses, by the way.
