Dead pool double-up.

This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.

How "weird" that they were both from Mississippi.

Years ago, I always loved jingling into "'65 Love Affair," and I'd frequently cue the cart past those initial drums to make it even more fun...!



Yes, I'm serious....why do you ask? :)

That's rough about Paul Davis. I always liked his stuff. I also read that Al Wilson, of "Show and Tell" fame back in the 70s, has died. He was 68. I probably best remember Wilson for his "The Snake" back in the latter 60s.
