Good morning. How did you do that that fast? You must be preparing ahead.

Is there a way to record this flight for later listening? I love that we have so many income tax shows.

If I understand you correctly, tonight's program will be available for a week at http://wamu.org/programs/bb/ target=blank> beginning tomorrow on demand.

Personally, I have C.Crane VersaCorder audio tape recorder hooked into my computer speaker outlet which records and amplifies sound.

It was busy, as usual. I hope yours was good.

I like the shows so far. I don’t know about the income tax theme as a heartwarmer, though. :-)

JD was pretty good. Catch it on the re-run.

I like your byline. I just said almost the same thing to my husband today. We ran out of lighter fluid for the grill, so he used a package of some kind of solid, waxy lighter stuff our neighbor had given us that said “environmentally friendly” or something like that on the package. It didn’t work very well, and I went to the convenience store and bought a bottle of fluid. Then, I told him your line, basically—if it says “green,” you know it’s no good. :-)

It was short and the story didn't seem to develop much- but I've got a few things going on so many I didn't listen closely enough.

Let me tell you something...don’t use lighter fluid, it effects the taste of the meat.

Buy one of these and you’ll love it. Works perfectly.
