Weird.
While Lileks was on MPR Friday morning, VampWillow was on WILL's Afternoon Magazine later in the day.
WILL is the public radio station in Shampoo-Banana. Which I always liked more than I do Minneapolis. There is probably some lesson here.
Both shows are available on the respective station's sites, for the Real Audio capable. Suppose I could compare and contrast. . .
Nah. That sounds too much like actual work.
WILL got the URI for Rebecca's site wrong, too. Honestly. Well, the announcer got Lileks' wrong, too, during the show, but the site has the right one.
Before any Minnesotans even consider doing the "We're Superior" dance, need I remind you that you're reading this -- and can listen to both shows -- on the World Wide Web? Rather than Gopherspace?
Update: No, WILL has the right link. And for the terminally lazy, direct links to the Real Audio -
The similarities of the questions, and the basic content of some of the answers, is actually a bit scary. Except when Rebecca says it, it makes sense. Not that I'm biased or anything.
But let's face it, who wants to see Lileks in a corset, breastfeeding-friendly or not?
Update: . . .
Willow and VampWillow reacted to Anya the same way.
Update EX2 Alpha + Championship Edition: Yep, that's my six in the morning syntax all right. I'm still not sure if that "is" should actually be an "are" because I'm not quite certain what the subject of the damn sentence is. Remember, kids, don't blog drunk, half-awake or when you're about to slip into a hypoglycemic coma.
No, if I took my own advice you wouldn't get any updates at all. Shut up.
actually, www.rebeccablood.net is the correct URL (rebeccablood.com points to the same site, but it's an afterthought--I only bought it because some guy was pointing it at a porn site.) anyway, I asked WILL to correct the URL.
Ah. Thought it looked funny, but it worked when I clicked it. Thanks.
If anyone needs me, I'll be curled up in the fetal position under the desk for the next few hours.
Try to ignore the small whimpering noises.
This is so embarrasing. . .
Great. Lileks in a corset.
Now I have visuals. Thanks so much, Aaron.
You're just lucky I never pirated Photoshop from my old job, dear heart.

For small blessings am I eternally and appropriately thankful to the dieties in charge of these sorts of things.
