Here we have a small jet crossing back and forth over the central hillside/downtown area. The trails behind this jet are not to be mistaken as “Con-trails”!
Con-trails in warm weather will dissipate immediately if they are even visible at all. Who knows, maybe it is just white flour to excite the chattering class … bring out the weirdos, know what I mean. Perhaps entertainment or to mess up our eyes as we repeatedly look toward the sun. Do you suppose they are disabling our pineal glands, disrupting our inherent clairvoyant abilities? Will I wake up tomorrow with an arm growing out of my ass? I hope not, but in a strange way, I do.

Hey a friend of mine/coworker at UMD is competing in a beauty contest of sorts that could win her 5 grand. She’s a hard working kid that went to school here in Duluth. It’d be great if you could go and vote for Keely!!! We all know how five grand could help a poor college student.
The Play Ground hosts this tender, funny and biting look at love by one of America’s hottest playwrights.

The next live broadcast of The Rubber Chicken Radio Hour will be Wednesday, April 29, from 7-8pm at The Thirsty Pagan in Superior, Wisconsin. The show will be broadcast live on KUWS 91.3FM, but being in the studio audience to see how it all comes together is the most fun, and admission is FREE…but you really should buy a pizza and a beer or two.
The Celebrity Guest for this show is Super Dave Anderson from the Northland’s News Center. Musical guest is Jim Madison, guitarist/singer/improvisational musician extraordinaire.
Some of the sketches in this edition of The Rubber Chicken Radio Hour include a behind-the-scenes peek at why Mark Winson decided to leave Mayor Don Ness after only two months, and how Dennis Anderson decides to spice up his newscasts after hearing about the success Pat Kelly had with The Full Monty at the Duluth Playhouse (The Full Denny, anyone?)
