It's fire prevention week! That probably doesn't mean much to you if you're A) not a firefighter, or B)don't hang out in schools much anymore.
So the first thing I'd like all of you to do is conduct a fire drill. Right now. When you get back, I'll share with you my Top5 Fire Prevention Week Memories.
1. When I was in 2nd grade, Smokey Bear came to my grade school on a fire truck to teach us all about not starting forest fires. One kindergartener went into absolute hysterics when he saw that iconic bear. For some reason I still remember his name. Donald Davis. Wonder whatever happened to him.
2. In high school, I singed my bangs lighting a cigarette on a gas stove. I'm not sure if this happened during Fire Prevention Week, but I think it did.
3. I hate it when people called Smokey Bear "Smokey THE Bear." There's no "the." Really. You could look it up.
4. Should you do Chinese fire drills during Fire Prevention Week? No, probably not. Besides, it's politically incorrect.
5. Don't play with matches.

Today's song was written by Peter Yarrow of Peter, Paul and Mary. It was inspired by the 1957 novel Doctor Zhivago. No one was inspired by the song this morning. It was rejected by almost all the listeners.
Today is World Goth Day, a day to celebrate the post-punk, anti-establishment, dark clothes-wearing subculture.
I'm pretty sure I was a Goth for at least for little while, for two reasons.
1) I almost hardly ever wear pastels.
2) I used to...
Hello to all from Nfusion. Another round of challenges has moved beyond us all. Congrats to those of us lucky enough to have survived to this point. Sad to see the others eliminated as they were all very creative and talented. Good Bye to our new friends...
This morning it seemed like just about everyone was in the mood for some Funky Cold Medina...except Kitty. This ridiculous song made it all the way to number 3 in 1989. Jonathan says any song that references advertising dogs from the 80's has got...
Madison's summer music festival season kicks off this weekend with Brat Fest at Willow Island, where there are more bands than you can shake a bratwurst at! Check out the Brat Fest website to plan your itinerary.

John Fogerty is making the talk show rounds this week, stopping in to see David Letterman Tuesday and Wednesday, and the ladies of "The View" on Thursday.
He's promoting his new album, "Wrote a Song For Everyone" which comes out next Tuesday...
It's a miracle that both Jonathan and KItty wanted to hear Barry Manilow this morning. They were not alone. Plenty of Fanilow's called in to vote yes. One caller claimed to have seen Manilow in concert 25 times!
