Thor No Longer Protecting Germany . . .

Hi everyone!  What a great experiment on the show yesterday.  It was my first "extended version" of my typically one hour "Politically Homeless Report."  From chatting about Columbia County's new catchphrase to Aiken's Redneck Olympics, it was some serious "info-tainment" (to steal a term from an old Simpsons episode).

As you know, in addition to trying to get the 6 bronze golf statutes displayed in Augusta, I'm trying to find an apostrophre for this sign on Wrightsboro Road:

I wonder what the over/under is for the number of days it take to hear back from Parks and Recreation regarding my request for an apostrophe . . .

Today I'm off to Paddlefest '09, Discover Downtown Augusta, and then Extreme Fight Night at the Bell.  As part of my "duties" as a fake journalist covering the MMA event, I went to the weigh-ins at Hooters on Washington Road last night.  It was tough, but here are some photos from the weigh-ins:

 

And a big thanks to my guests, Karen Gordon of Garden City Jazz and Joel Cruz of Jazz Collective.  Those were some cool skat katz in the studio and I'm looking forward to be-boppin with them this Sunday night at 8pm at RiverWarlk for the last installment of the season of Candlelight Jazz.  It'll be groovy, man.

Next week on the show, tons of local news as I interview two of the local candidates for the District 1 Commission seat, the guy behind Thursday's Stop Obama Care Rally, members of the Augusta Sirens roller derby team, the guy behind the fund raising for the Kroc Center, and Columbia County's favorite secular humanist.  All that and tons more on the Golf Hall of Fame statues and apostrophe-gate on The Anthony Esposito Show.
