All right! I’m glad everyone here got the news already. I’m a bit out of it because I’ve been at the station since 10 o’clock this morning, but I just wanted to thank all the Rock’n’Soul stream, DJs and listeners. We really have such a great community here. we’re so happy that we can continue delivering great shows such as this one for another year.

Heya Harry. Mrs. Flot and I enjoyed Rt. 66. We actually met ON Rt 66 -- when we were both teaching at a university in Joplin, MO. Rt. 66 went right through the middle of town and we met at a bar that was on the old Rt. 66
