Oh no, here comes Radio Moonbird! Well, here goes kids. I haven't done this since my pirate radio days...→[More:]The first hour will be moderately mellow with a dash of goof thrown in for good measure.

Ok, no, really, I have to leave when Nina is done because you're just going to keep playing good, good tunes. But thanks so much, moonbird and taz, for a great musical buffer against the day's nuttiness.

Ciao for now!

Yikes, sorry 'bout that, having a few techno farts. As for the dropped signals, a few WMAs got into the mix and that shuts the stream down. Hey, first time, so it's a bumpy ride.
