 |  | This month was an aberration but also hey look 84 miles logged please praise me |
|
| 3.11.22 23:14 | |  | I.....did not beat the rain home. Obligatory wet rat photos follow. I wonder if buying this Chris Forsyth double vinyl was what made it start raining. On the plus side, I didn't get stuck by lightning, which is great because I need that luck to hit the Powerball Saturday. Definitely driving to the Hook tomorrow instead of walking because this suuuuucked |

 |  | Well I wasn't gonna miss it twice #McRib |
(McDonald's) |
| 2.11.22 19:29 | |  | These tasted exactly like you'd think. It's clear this taste was made for corn tortilla chips and not tater chips, so making it limited edition is the right move. I don't need to buy another bag. |

| 2.11.22 18:16 | | Just think - in a few short hours I'll be a BILLIONAIRE |

 | Boy this game used to look different. Also wow I've been playing this dumb thing for six years |
| 1.11.22 21:30 |
 |  | I'll probably look back at the Betty Boo autograph pack as my most questionable outlay of funds on media for 2022 but damn if that light pink vinyl isn't as seductive as that bonus second CD of remixes and....hell might as well have a BOOTAPE cassette |

| 1.11.22 21:27 | |  | Hahaha no |

| Without intending to, I am in the midst of a walk-a-thon taking place throughout KFAI's Fall Member Drive - it's just about exactly 2 miles between my house and the station and even when we started at it was 26 in the morning, I hoofed it there and back. Barring any unexpected strange weather or my knee collapsing I will have logged 4 miles for 12 separate days of the 14 day drive. I'm currently at 42 miles (will walk home tonight and then there and back on Monday, the last day of the drive). I should have asked you if you'd like to donate a buck a mile on my behalf - that's $48, but if you add our credit card processing fee, it comes to a nice round $50!
If you support what Fresh Air does OR you support whatever it is I do for Fresh Air, I'd certainly appreciate your donation! If you are financially unable, please consider sharing this status out to your rich friends. I am so fortunately to have already been blessed with contributions from several wonderful, generous, sexy as hell listeners but I don't want you to think I still don't want to hear from YOU! I am hoping to smash all records and make this my best drive ever and between Weekend on Demand and Dollar Bin, we're on pace to do just that! Even five bucks would mean a lot. You can donate over at kfai.org OR if you've already Zucked all your info, you can just push that button down there.
I'll be live on the air at 5 with a special HALLOWEEN ON DEMAND - tune in early or you'll miss me getting "Monster Mash" right out of the way to move into the Brownsville Station and requests for indie French language stuff I never would have found on my own. |
| 27.10.22 09:13 | | Hey! Maybe you can't afford the big Hastings 3000 show tonight. Here's something you can attend for FREE! (But you do have to RSVP to get your name on the list; click through for details.) Ooh also it'll be your first chance to see my "costume" for this year! |
| 25.10.22 20:51 | |  | Hey guess what was on sale this week! I have never even seen them things on the left, but we're starting out tonight with the things on the right. I note that inflation must be over as these WEREN'T marked $5.59 - merely $5.19. ("Sale" price was 2 for 7.)
It's hard to call these Cheetos when "cheese" makes such a tiny impact in the grand scheme of things - these are very corn-forward and the predominant taste is limón, which is weird because there is no clue where in the ingredients list it comes in. ("Natural flavors" is doing a lot of heavy lifting, I guess.) I gotta say, when I have elote I generally don't think lime, but I guess they use that mayo with lime in it or something? Spices are there and I guess there's some cheese but really it's just so lime-y. I DID like them, though - I might buy them again but Cheetos in general are pretty low on my grocery list.
Later, we'll see if those chili cheese things change my mind! That li'l Sabritas guy usually portends disaster for me but I'm optimistic! |

| 23.10.22 14:20 | |  | RIP to my OG LIVESTRONG bracelet. Mark gave it to me....um....I have no idea how many years ago... at least 15, maybe even 20? I think I wore it my wedding day? Other than LaLa borrowing it for a weekend once, it's been around my right wrist the entire time. Lance Armstrong is probably still a jerk but the F Cancer sentiment is still valid. Here also is a gross photo to show you what the inner side looked like after contacting my wrist all that time. |
|
| 22.10.22 22:16 | | Told Mom earlier today I was just waiting for something in the house to break - I must have psychically felt my dishwasher completely die while I was out. |
| 22.10.22 15:27 |
| We're in Day 5 of 14 and doin' fine! Today it'll be my turn to come on air and show you what you're contributing to and I've lined up our usual array of REAL HUMAN LISTENERS to tell you why they support Fresh Air. For now, I'm manning the pledge phones in Studio 5 during Caribbean Jam and will be back afterwards for Temposphere - even if you aren't able to contribute, you can still join our party at 90.3 locally and KFAI dot org EVERYWHERE on the Internet! |
| 19.10.22 18:49 | | I think I just received a Senior discount. (I ain't complainin'!) (Goodwill) |
| 18.10.22 21:53 | | It's not on Letterboxd, and technically it's not a movie, but:
HEY WHAT (2021) ★★★½ Shane Donahue's visualisation of Low's album lands squarely between _Koyaanisqatsi_ and _The Orb's Adventures Beyond the Ultraworld: Patterns and Textures_. It made me want to listen to the album again.
(Tagging the three people I follow on Letterboxed: Kelly, Scott and Mark, none of whom NEED to read this but let's be completists) |

| As many of you may be aware, I volunteer, host AND serve on the Board of Directors of the best radio station in the Twin Cities and one of the best in the world. Fresh Air Radio is a nonprofit, non-commercial station, beholden to no corporate interests, providing voices to communities whose voices aren't always amplified elsewhere, serving the community in a dozen languages and even playing your requests when you ask us. In return, two or three times a year we remind the community that their support is an important part of what sustains us, keeping the lights on and the waves airing for 44 years and counting. If you are able, won't you please make a financial contribution and become a member - or continue your membership? I'm not a big fan of giving Facebook any financial details - if you Feel Like I Do*, you might want to head over to kfai.org to make a secure donation. But if you're more into expediency and HAVE given to a cause before here on the 'book, I wil!
l certainly not complain if you do so again. Let me know if you would like this season's wacky photo of me (not posted online!) as a personal thank you.

| 18.10.22 08:26 | | Happy Birthday to my brothers in radio and in life, DJ SLT, Tom Wollenberg and Thomas Wollenberg, all of whom have inexplicably locked down their pages despite the teeming masses greatly desiring a chance to pollute their Facebook walls with well wishes. Here's a member drive memory from back when we could sit in the same studio. Aw shit, gotta start another member drive campaign. Later. |
| 18.10.22 08:13 | | Ah, ol' blue eyes and his Schlitz neck label. I love that kid. Where is that kid. |
| 17.10.22 15:50 | |  | New look fingerless gloves are here |

| I'm playing requested RUSH right now! But don't worry - there'll be other requests after that. 90.3 / kfai dot org / KFAI/live |
| 14.10.22 21:37 | | No, YOU'RE not wearing pants (Fine Line) |
| 13.10.22 21:48 | |  | Hey look a new (to me) Pepsi Zero Sugar! This one is their "Pepsi-Cola Soda Shop Cream Soda Cola" which, that's a lotta words, whew. I HAVE seen this before as a full sugar version but never tried it. This one is TASTY - like a fancier Vanilla Pepsi Zero but with half the caffeine (38mg in a can) of the usual ol' Pepsi Max (around 68-69mg) putting it closer to ol' standby regular Pepsi and a smooth cream soda finish. Probably better than the Dr Pepper version. |

| 12.10.22 16:21 | |  | Take that, flu! |

| 12.10.22 12:05 | |  | Struck by this "retro" Battleship box at Le Tarzhay last night.....something's missing, but I can't quite put my finger on it.... hmmmmmm.....oh right, they've walled off the kitchen where the women are |
|
| 12.10.22 09:32 | | RIP Angela Lansbury - only a year ago I noted you were still alive |

(First Avenue & 7th St Entry) |
| 11.10.22 17:21 | |  | Sorry, I did not buy these |
|
| 11.10.22 16:26 | | Happy National Coming Out Day! While I remain cishet, I do try every day to be the best ally I can, love everyone, flirt with ALMOST everyone, respect pronouns (mine are he/him but I'll respond to others, too), fight heteronormativity and work to eliminate my own biases while also growing out my pretty pretty hair and occasionally trying out weird colours of nail polish. I may have more enby friends than binary friends at this point but it ain't usually my business and they certainly don't need to tell me if they don't wanna, but I'm happy to learn when they do and love folks no matter what! I hope you continue to feel safe with me and please, always call me out when I can do better. 🧷 |
