I was asked, yet another weird question, of how I would like to be buried, when I finally bite the big one. The answer was actually pretty easy. Face-down, like a certain historical figure in the late 1980's, (I will not mention who, but some of you will get it, and that's enough.) Why??? It would be a burial that will satisfy everyone: (1) My enemies will say that it will show me where to go. (2) On the same point, I can have my enemies kiss my butt. (3) It will temporarily give someone a place to park a bicycle. See??? A WIN / WIN for everyone.

I worked with Delilah at KUGN in Eugene, only her second radio job, doing (among other things) production of her voicetracks for KUGN's "mellow" FM. Aside from being a stellar talent, she's a genuinely nice person. I wish her much success at KDUN.

My college roommates hailed from Reedsport, and then I lived near there in my first job, so I have affection for the town and KDUN. I hope the station thrives now.

While most of its 50 kW daytime signal is aimed at the ocean, it's been very audible within the first hour or so after sunrise up here in Seattle's northeast suburbs during recent weeks. And, yes, lots of local hosts and content during those morning hours.
