Today on MorningWood

Today on MorningWood, on Community Radio WMNF 88.5 fm, Tampa, and streaming at wmnf.org.
4 to 6 am every Tuesday!

Help me get an afternoon show! There is an opening for a programmer on Saturday afternoon. Call or Email WMNF Program Director Randy Wynne and tell him how much you would just LOVE to hear Norwood on from 2-4 PM on Saturdays! (Phone number is 813-238-8001, ex 16) I know: I’ll have to come up with another catchy name, since MorningWood seems somehow inappropriate in the afternoon, but I’m willing to make the sacrifice.

Today’s MorningWood highlights:

Hour 1 planned playlist

Hour 2 planned playlist

Live playlist

FREE MP3! George Bush cutup of Christmas reading. (Unknown artist)

Here’s a snippet from thisBen Tripp piece which I’ll be reading between 5 and 6:

Here we see condition number 4 in action. The average American is isolated from other viewpoints, and so perceives no option but the option advanced by the bullies at the top. And since the world is swarming with terrorists (AKA 'darkies') hemming America in on all sides, held back only by such trifling obstacles as the North Pole, the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, and to the south a chicken wire fence, same America feels completely trapped; and politically speaking, the country is held in an iron and unilateral grip from which there is little hope of escape: what are you going to do, vote for somebody else? They own the voting machines! In all kinds of fun ways, we meet condition 2. Then you have the grotesque litter of small kindnesses that bullies offer up in lieu of actual sympathy: we sent your job overseas, but here's an extra couple week's worth of unemployment benefits. We're cutting the taxes of rich people for your sake, not theirs; here's a hundred bucks of your own money to prove we mean it. On the one hand, we're assaulting the American family on every front from healthcare to education, but on the other hand, we'll keep the fags from getting married. This hurts us more than it hurts you (stifled giggling). That's condition 3 met in spades ( a type of shovel). Condition 1, 'afraid for your life': I think we're there. These people have put us all in danger, the world over, and the gun is in their hands. One bark from the roscoe and we're drilled.
