NEW KID ON THE BLOCK:
Hey guys, I am happy to announce that we have a new member of the Space Radio
Team...coming to a phone near you! We managed to snag the one and only Nolle
Bond!
Recently Nolle moved back from Chicago where he worked at Q101 for, Mancow's
Morning Madhouse: http://www.mancow.com/Home.php He booked guests, worked all
the remotes, kicked it on "Skid Theater," did show prep, production
and pre-interviews...as well as got blamed for many a call-in dropped and general
phone monkey disasters on the show by 'Cow as "Nolle the intern,"
previous to becoming a paid staff slave! Before that stint in the evil world
of commercial radio morning madness, he worked at KWKJ in Warrensburg, MO where
he was the co-host of, "Bob & Dave's Radio Show," hosted by Nolle
& Ian--the indie "new music" show there. (Originally it was "The
Bob and Dave's Radio Show," hosted by some guy Nolle.) He also worked at
KTBG, the Triple A non-commercial station in Warrensburg, under PD Jon Hart.
Somehow we got lucky and convinced him to come play in the Space Office with
us! He is a great guy and a ton of fun! (Be very very nice if you talk to Nolle
on Monday!)***CONTEST THIS***
EAT AN APPLE A DAY:
The Great AALACHO iPod mini mix-tape/rpm mix contest is going on now!! (We are
running a contest giving away 2 mini-iPods to the college/non-comm MDs, and
3 to some lucky RPM MDs--since you all are really supporting the heck outta
AALACHO over at RPM, you get a chance at he extra iPod!) The rules are different
for each contest, so don't get confused! You must fall in the specific title
category to enter either...basically you must be either a Music Director or
an RPM Director--if you're both, pick one or the other....if you are beyond
confused now, just call or drop your Space Staff contact to school you on the
rules! (BTW all submissions must be post-dated August 23rd!!! Winners announced
Sept. 1st! (Right now the odds of winning are about 1 in 1 1/2 people win...so
it is worth your time to enter!)***DIARY OF A TEXAS GIRL LOST IN THE MIDWEST***
I LOVE YOU, YOU PAY MY RENT:
The new office is better than I first thought....we have a lovely high-end coffee
shop upstairs in the ol' mall, and so now I have a wicked java habit once again.
Plus, I actually get to eat lunch because they make killer sandwiches--since
I never have time to go out and grab something...and these chains to this desk
here make it kinda complicated... Besides getting hit on by the guys at the
industrial temp-work place down the hall, and the janitors big attack dog, (luckily
he turned out to be cute and friendly despite his mas-size...but as he ran down
the hall towards me with a gleam in his eye, like I was a turkey leg from the
fair....um yeah.), everything is pretty chill--oh yeah, and except our massive
phone problems the past two weeks--sorry if you couldn't reach out and touch
us! In fact it was seeming much like home, sans windows...
Enter sensitive Mr. Pony-Tail Man.
Yes, our very own Dr. Ian 'Ray' Raymond has a tiny office that is basically
a small dry-wall cut-in to our office! I imagine he works at MIZZOU, (University
of Missouri) during the day, teaching some touchy feely intervention class,
and sees patients at night on the side....
So, anyhow, last night we had a late night at the office, it was about 8:30
PM...since we were getting ready for the next big [very freakin' rad] package
mailing today...and we were also listening to a friend of ours' new metal band
demo, at a decent volume--not that loud...but talking level music promo office
loud! So anyway, he comes into the office with his hands together in this pseudo
non-threatening finger-tip touching cupped hand pose...and goes, "Hi I'm
"Ian 'Ray' Raymond" I do counseling next door...and ummmm, I know
there is some way we can work this out, yes, we can work this out...you see
I work with people that are suicidal, and ummmm....they need to be able to concentrate
and they are thinking really deep thoughts...and ummmm....well I know we can
come to an understanding here....what is it you do here? Oh, ok..."

Huffman's eyes got REALLY big, Willow looked scared, I had some confused look
on my face....and then Huffman crushed him with an air-conditioner.
