Chapter Two from the old cookbook “New Delineator Recipes Cookbook.” This chapter of the classic cookbook focuses on sandwiches and includes some classic 1920s recipes such as: “Anchovy Butter” and “Peanut Butter with Pickle.” What were they thinking?

Artists Conception of the Stripper Radio Logo
(From RadioNX.com. Hey, I know the guy!) Word came out of Denver late Friday that Indie 101.5 is stunting with a new “Stripper Radio” format called “The Pole.” According to the Denver Post, the playlist consists of a cross pollination of CHR and Rock hits such as “Addicted to Love and “Baby Got Back.” Interspersed with the typical pop tuna’ are drops of giggly toe-headed girls espousing the great virtue of “The Pole.” Uh huh. I tried to listen to the stream, however the page re-sized to a postage stamp and kept bugging me to upgrade Flash. Annoyed the hell out of me so I gave up.

Heading north from Austin today to attend the Edge Dallas 20-year reunion. Should be fun. Hard to believe it’s been 20 farking years! Most of the original air-staff is alleged to be in attendance. If you’re in the North Texas area, stop by.

I got this old book as a combo Birthday/Father’s Day present. “Radio: Miracle of the 20th Century,” was published in 1922, at the advent of the “modern era” of radio. Scanned in a few of the pictures and cover so others (as in you) could check it out. A couple of my favorite picts are the “first” car radio and the “portable” suitcase radio. It’s interesting to read the pages of this book and realize that the enthusiasm for radio in the ’20s is much like the fervor of the Internet and digital wireless technologies today. In its infancy, the early radio broadcaster, adopters and hobbyists saw radio and radio telephony as a technology to enable men to “talk through space to people miles away.” The excitement of radio and its promise would be the harbinger of a new world of learning, communication and utopian ideals. A good reminder to not always “drink the kool-aid” of the so-called illuminated ones expounding the latest new technology that will change the world and lead us into a new mystical land of pink bunnies and dancing rainbow ponies.
