PEACE ON EARTH
...or at least peace with NPR.
thanks to the the intervention of a saved-my-ass elf, NPR is going to run its version of the Bebe Bleue guitar story after all.
maybe there really is something to this Christmas magic business...thank you.
THIS IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE IT'LL AIR

Whoa! Did not know about the turn of events but just heard it as *upcoming* on All Things Considered!!! Yipppeeeeeeeee!!! It just started!!!
Just heard it on WKSU... I liked the fake ending better. Maybe you should have sent it to The Daily Show or The Colbert Report instead of NPR.
It was great, Chris. It had more glow and personality that the norm on NPR - it broke up the usual, more stiff style. Excellent work! A little splash of technicolor in the midst of the ongoing bleak, sad news out Palestisrael and Iraq...
It's up on npr.org:
My Guitar, My Past: A Man's Search for His Vox
ugh...I'm truly sorry for the multiple posts. I thought I was having trouble logging in and didn't see that it was repeatedly posting...please delete two of them!
Bravo! Bravo!

well, in the original long podcast, i used a lot of clips from the film "Miracle on 34th St." where the proof that this ol' geezer is really Santa Claus comes when the US POSTAL SERVICE delivers a ton of letters to Santa to him in a court room scene. the case is 'proved' 'cause the USPS decided this guy was The Guy. ditto w/me...it was 'my' guitar 'cause the Customs officer said so = had no paitence for my doubts = it was in my posession, pay the duty or have it impounded = and therefore, it was 'my' guitar.
ok?

I love The Waitresses. So, any plans to put "Wasn't Tomorrow Wonderful" on CD? My album is getting seriously worn out! The guitar on "Quit" is beyond great. It's Hendrix great. My fav albums of all time:
1. Sgt. Pepper
2. Wasn't Tomorrow Wonderful
3. everything else ever written
"Found a cure for gravity yet? Yes, I'm addicted to roofs and jets!"
Perfection.
