i did my space themed show today. i've done it about once each year, with many of the same songs and many different ones each time. one fun twist today is that i interviewed margie kay with the mutual ufo network (mufon). she is organizing a ufo conference in kansas city this weekend. she talked about the recent increase of sightings in the kansas city area. it was similar to this tv interview she did. (but of course the stupid tv news shows won't cover any story for over two minutes, but we were able to talk for 15 minutes)

another highlight was playing from a 1977 record my brother had called "the story of star wars". it's excerpts of the movie narrated and put onto one hour's worth of vinyl. i played the first 5 minutes or so which covered princess leia giving r2-d2 the plans and then the droids escaping in the escape pod. followed by the imperial march.
