Okay, Okay....I love talk radio. I know what you're thinking. But there is this one show in particular that Rob and I enjoy in the morning, on talk 650. It's the Armstrong and Getty show. They talk about all kinds of things. I love it, they always get me thinking.
Any closet Armstrong and Getty fans out there?
Well, anyway, if you are a fan, you may know about a frequent caller they have whose name is Basel, from Iraq and is quite funny and interesting. The other day, Rob and I were driving on the free-way and I happened to notice this license plate that read 'Basel' on it, and thought, it was funny (ask me about my Basel story from our travels in Switzerland sometime) and just like that caller's name, then Rob noticed his Armstrong and Getty bumper sticker. As we passed him, sure enough a middle aged Iraqi man was driving and looked exactly like I thought he would. So I did the first thing that came to mind, I leaned way over with a big smile and waved at him...and as if he knew exactly why we were waving, he smiled and enthusiastically waved right back. Rob and I got a good giggle out of it for about 10 minutes.
I'm adding them to my list of web-sites to stop at because they are available on pod-cast which is a fantastic way to cut commercials. Also I have some new books listed (***Leota's Garden***is fantastic) if you hadn't noticed before, and also I changed the link to my friend Gretchen Jones to a site she more frequently updates. She has lived in Peru the last 5 years? and always has incredible stories from her work there. Also added the Cunningham blog this week. Check it out.
