[Vision]

Hi Gina, what did you think of last night’s game?

[Dr. Scarpetta]

We can certainly relate—down here on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. After Katrina wiped out most of our coastline, we were without power for a couple of weeks, and much longer in other areas.

That must have been a nightmare...

[WXRGina]

Hi Gina, what did you think of last night’s game?

Vision, we did up a really nice 5-hour, slow smoked pork spare ribs, and I made potato salad and my swell baked beans for the football meal.

As for the game, Alabama was the better team, but LSU scored more points. I feel sorry for the two kids who didn't make those goals.

But, what about this strange Sodom and Gomorrah tale? I can't tell the angle of this program--is it anti-Semitic or pro-Islam, or what?

[WXRGina]

That must have been a nightmare...

Dr. Scarpetta, it was almost indescribable in its awfulness.

I need to listen to it again; my focus was lost while cleaning dishes. What are you thinking?

[Dr. Scarpetta]

Are you close to the coast?

[logitech]

The refs robbed us. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
I remember a Bama vs LSU game the Tide won 6-3 in a torrential downpour @ BR. A win is a win in the SEC. Congrats LSU.

No BBQ this Sunday?

[WXRGina]

Are you close to the coast?

We live two blocks off of the beach in Gulfport. We can see the water from our porch--a view of the water that has not been possible for many, many decades, because of the houses that used to block the view before Katrina washed them away.

[Vision]

Hey, I spent the day working a fundraising dinner at Church, but yesterday I smoked a brisket flat and an Italian fatty. Boy o boy did that brisket stall.

[WXRGina]

I need to listen to it again; my focus was lost while cleaning dishes. What are you thinking?

We would like to listen to it again, too. It was weird, but seemed to be "early-Hollywood anti-Semitism." I don't know. We, too, need to hear it again. It was bizarre.

Here we go with our Halloween Escape. I remember Mr. Walker played this one last year at Halloween.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

That is shocking. So many people must have lost their homes...

Hey, Vision. Sounds delicious. Good lineup tonight.

[WXRGina]

That is shocking. So many people must have lost their homes...

Thousands of people.

You would not know it from the post-storm "mainstream media" coverage, but Mississippi was actually ground zero for Katrina's hit, not New Orleans. New Orleans' pitiful levees gave way and caused their flooding problem

[steelyourfaith]

That would be the levees that the ecotards litigated against the Corps of Engineers’ efforts to improve, no?

[Vision]

Night all. I’m exhausted and will retire to the radio. See you next week.

[MaryFromMichigan]

‘Night, Vision.
‘Night, all.
Nice line up.
(((FRiends)))

[WXRGina]

Yes, Sir.

[WXRGina]

Hello, Mary! It’s great to see you tonight!
((hugs))

[WXRGina]

This Constitution program is intense. It is making me “cry” for my country today.

God help us.
