Hi. For the uninformed, I have a radio show. Its on monday nights (in the states and tues midday in Australia). You can listen to it on the web at http://kamp.arizona.edu in real audio. I just got done with my show tonight, so I thought I'd type up the playlist since I hadn't done that in a while. I play a pretty wide variety of stuff, mostly emo, powerpop, and indie. Today I did a lot of piano music. I also got a decent number of requests this week. Anyway.

Not that I have much to say, other than Happy Belated B-day to Jordan, I just wanted to write and ask everyone who is out there lurking just to favor us with something. Some way to let us all know you're out there, and not stalking us all from the bushes. As everyone should know, that's MY job! ;) Oh yeah, I just went and reserved my copy of TUBORM (I just keep wanting to write TUBWORM for some strange reason) yesterday, on top of finally getting to see 54 and Mulan. That, and the dark cider from Woodchuck just made it a good day. Now, I have to finish work and do my taxes before I go insane. Laters!
