pre-set: "D'yer Mak'er", which Renee had joked wouldn't be played during A-to-Z because the apostrophes made it too hard to figure out where to put it.  Not sure if it actually got played last week or not.

My first car was a 72 XR-7 convertible. Fun car, though the driver's seat adjustment didn't work, so I had to sit all the way back and tighten the seat belt so I didn't zoom forwards and backwards. Always amusing.

as much of an 80's uber geek as I am, I cannot recall ever hearing this before.

of course that may be merely a sign of my mental decline in middle age!

I want to say it's made one or two 10@10 appearances prior to this, but other than that I'm with you Mark -- no recollection from back in the day.

WOS the Cars.

They did, and to prove their dictionagraphic* incompetence, it was the final D song (D-punctuation-additional letters), and was immediately followed by - not even a comercial break - the first E song (E-punctuation-additional letters), namely E=MC2, by Big audio Dynamite.

Geez, who gets credit for the "mountain-top ranch" reference implying that Reagan somehow equates to Moses!?

I've driven past it, same road as Jacko's infamous place, and it is mostly flat with a slight rise to the south to a low ridge in Santa Barbara County.

to my mind this set was redeemed primarily by the reprise of the Ray-gun shotgun clip.  :-)

I believe the word you're looking for is "lexigraphic."

And who would like to tell us where D'yer Mak'er should be placed in the order?
