After being buried for 3 days and 3 nights, Milquetoast Q. Whitebread has risen.

If you grew up in the 1960's in Southern California listening to KHJ radio, this might sound vaguely familiar:

Milquetoast Q. Whitebread is ALIVE! ALIVE!!!

(20 points to the first freeper who can actually name the person that was "Alive Alive" on KHJ in the 1960's and another 20 points for naming the DJ that made it famous.)

Didn't grow up in Cali but I'll guess the DJ is Wolfman Jack.

Sorry guy, no can do! i am old enough to remember free form AM radio, and among my earliest memories were Bob Prince calling Pittsburgh Pirate baseball games, and Garner Ted Armstrong on The World Tomorrow broadcast before Herbert W. Excommunicated him. Unfortuantely, short wave and hence California radio was not part of that mix.

If you have ever heard the song "AM Radio" by a band called Everclear (I think), the song begins with the "KHJ Los Angeles" jingle. It is a real throw back.

I'm 34 so I'm right on that cusp of people born and raised in L.A. who listened to AM radio before KROQ FM dominated our lives.

ah, the memories....I feel like I can almost hear "More than a Feeling" by Boston
