At the risk of sounding stupid for making the same apology and excuse for not blogging that every other blogger seems to make… sorry I’ve been so quiet lately, but I’ve been busy. And since I expect the busy to continue until this semester draws to a close, I expect to go back to radio […]

So, here I present the much […]

I think I may have to stop badmouthing the Tucson climate (at least temporarily), for it appears that we are actually going to have a Monsoon season this year (there was an official announcement that the season had started on the radio today).
