too late for my Zevon BOS

That would have been the song most likely to get my vote too, if I'd been inclined to vote.

Btw, hope y'all are enjoying your Indian summer down there. It's unquestionably fall up here. Leaves turning, a chill in the air, and air cannons going off in the vineyards every 5 or 10 minutes (to scare off marauding birds). I'll be glad when they finish picking all the damn grapes.
Let's get right to it.

But urth, if it wasn't for wine, nobody would eat cheese. ;)

You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

Okay, this is weird.  I woke up rather early today (Sat) and turned on KFOG at about 7:20.  Heard the last 5 songs of this set.  Then came the Vertical Tasting (my 1st-grader now loves Doo Wah Diddy), then 1973, then 1989 (which Dave closed by saying, "Coming up, possibly the best set of the week"), and then 1984.  And then 1978 all over again, starting at around 10:40.  I had to sit down and review all the sets of the week, 'cause I thought I was losing my mind.  Nope, I'm not crazy.  They're playing 6 sets today.

Now, although they advertise the replay starting at 7, they often they don't start until closer to 7:20.  And as far as I can remember the whole thing always finishes after 11.  So having wrapped at 10:40 maybe they needed some filler.

Right now I'm hearing "Mr. Blue Sky" again, which was the first song I heard this morning.
