[Vision2020] The Auntie Establishment and Brother Carl Show (August 27, 2006)

[Tom Hansen]

Greetings Visionaires -

After having completed writing the sequel to her previously published book
"Idaho Code", Auntie returned to the Moscow airwaves and immediately got
down to business with Bro "C" roasting George Bush, "Comb-Over" Courtney and
his self-serving blog, and "West of Paris", a local restaurant whose support
group at the southeast corner of Moscow's Fifth Street and Washington
possess physiques that would be better served feeding from the salad bar and
not from the foie gras trough.  In addition to presenting (and discussing)
articles from such writers as Molly Ivins, Maureen Dowd, and Thomas Frank,
the show was well seasoned with music from the 1960s.

In case you were unable to tune in to today's show, you may download and

This week's song dedication goes out to Mike Hoffman, the stalwart financial
keystone in what were going to be two of Moscow's most impacting and immense
developments since topless carwashes; a 77-home subdivision to be located
near Third Street/Mountain View and a 9-acre closed and gated community
affectionately nicknamed "Wilsonville" to be located on North Polk
Extension.  However, as financial support for these two massively expensive
developments faded away so did Mike Hoffman, like Moscow's answer to
"University Place".

So, this goes out to you, Mike Hoffman, wherever you are.  It's not like you
committed a crime of violence.  All you did was . . .

"Take the Money and Run"

"Take the money and run
Like a thief across a neighbor's yard
Take the money and run
Like a ghost out in the night.
Take the money and run
'cause you found out that it wasn't hard
to take the money and run
because you were out of sight.
You cannot tell me any more lies
You cannot pull the wool over my eyes
Take the money and run."

Seeya round town, Moscow.
