In my defense--although, let's not lie: I'm an 80's girl in my heart--I did let the SIX YEAR OLD pick his favorites. Whaddyagonnado?

(Plus, Bill, I know you sort of love Night Ranger in your heart and you just don't know how to talk about it.)

WE LOVE BEING GUEST DJ'S ON SPARE THE ROCK!

Although I am very excited to hear ginger's guest dj set, I have to say, I'm most psyched to hear LIAM!!! All due respect to Ginger. Little squirts of the little squirt here and there... it's going to be fun to hear more of him!

ScribbleJim said there's a test? Test, what test? Ugh.

Chloe remarks about Mr. Ray "He has a nice voice."

Thanks for a fun show, Bill and Liam and Ginger & co!

'sister christian'-- is there a name for the phenomenon where -- although you wished very, veerrry hard that you didn't -- you can call up some v. vivid memories of a song (i'm talkin' about every fist-pumpin' line, down to the clothing worn in the video) just by reading its title? same thing happened to me when amy wrote about 'we built this city on rock'n roll.' and then there's alfred molina in 'boogie nights.' oh, and air supply lyrics. yuckyuckyuck.
