Listening to Carl Blare ALL NIGHT LONG by mistake!

So I got home from job #1 last night about 11:30.

I put some laundry in, and had something to eat.

Then I took Bella (the pug) and Hoover (the dog that
is more vacuum cleaner than dog) out for the last time.
(At least until the next day.)

I like listening to the Part 15 stations that stream. You
guys all do a really good job. Usually I will put one on
when I'm getting ready to go to bed.

This particular night was DIFFERENT in two ways.

(1) My back was bothering me. This has gone on
here and there for 20 years, it's no big deal. But
when I need to, I sleep on a big long board that
is on top of a couch. I suppose you could say I'm
in "The Board Room" on those occasions, but actually
the room is the DOGRADIO studio. So I had to sleep
there instead of the bedroom. This particular night,
the dogs slept in other places in the house, and not
in the DOGRADIO studio. For whatever that's worth.
I think I heard my wife let out a big scream up in the
bedroom when Hoover flew up the stairs, bounced
off the floor, and landed on her by mistake(?)

(2) ANYWAY I forgot to set the "OFF" timer. When I listen to
a Part 15 station via streaming it comes through the
DOGRADIO stereo system. (The DOGRADIO transmitter
is off.) There is a speaker near me where I can hear the
stream. I listen to it for a while, then I fall asleep and
a little while after that, a digital timer shuts down
the sound system, and there is nothing but quiet.

Well this time - I forgot to set the timer to shut the system
off after I went into dreamland.

So, if we going back to the beginning of this saga - it's
about midnight, or a little after that.
I decided to listen to a "Blare On Air." I have been going
back and listening to all of them. This one was actually
recorded in a restaurant. Carl and a friend of his were
having a nice conversation, and it was very pleasant.
(Although I got blown out of the room when somebody
dropped some silverware onto a plate.)

Anyway, I drifted off into sleep. But I didn't set the timer
to turn the system off.

CARL TALKED ALL NIGHT LONG!

So you know how it is when you are halfway awake, but
you don't have the presence of mind to change whatever
woke you up?

CARL TALKED ALL NIGHT LONG.

He was still talking when the clock radio came on to get me
up.

Though out the night, in my semiconscious state, I heard
things like:

"Let's ask Floatilla (yes that's FLOATILLA) what going on.
She knows way too much about this subject even though
she doesn't know how long it's been since... Hey, where
are my notes about this fish? Are you game?"

"Well, we get interference, but what I'm inferring is counter
to the ferrite coil on top of the furniture in the KDX lobby.
So I'm inferring that the lobbyists have to use lawn furniture,
because lawn furniture has good ground conductivity. BUT
only in the rain, and lobbyists usually have umbrellas. So
that would put the system out of tune. Speaking of out
of tune, where is your harmonica right now? Ragnar?

"I'm not sure I said what I was thinking before I said it. Could
you play the recording back Morgan? Could you play the
recording back Morgan. No not there. (Pause) I'm not sure.
NO NO the rest, too. I said what I was thinking before I said it.
OK...................................... I guess that's about as good as
things are going to get as long as it's 45 degrees outside. It's
warm but it's cold, too. It just depends on your attitude.
Speaking of altitude, there goes that plane again. But the airport
is 30 miles away. It's a good thing the KDX shortwave antenna
is inside the multipurpose building. No planes will ever get in here."

"OR WILL THEY????????????"

Imitation really is the most sincere form of flattery.
