Back in 1979, I made the decision to accept Dr Demento as my personal savior. Since then, with the help of his apostles Spike, Al, Stan and Black-Eyed Susan Brown, I have made it my mission to spread the Gospel of the Firesign and the Word of the Waller. Please join me and my fellow seekers as we find the Wisdom we crave and the Rapture we deserve. A new sermon every Tuesday (and NO collection plate!).

MUSICAL APOLOGY
|
|
Full Title: "Regetting what I said to you when you called me at 11:00 on a Friday morning to tell me that at 1:00 Friday afternoon you're gonna leave your office, go downstairs, hail a cab to go out to the airport to catch a plane to go skiing in the Alps for two weeks. Not that I wanted to go with you, I wasn't able to leave town, I'm not a very good skiier, I couldn't expect you to pay my way. But after going out with you for three years, I don't like suprises."

WHILE-ALL IN LIBERTYVILLE

Dick Okin & Bert Bernardis were ad agency bigshots that actually got their hands dirty and won 13 CLIOS for their trouble. Many years of great TIME Magazine ads and can now be heard on radio doing spots for newyorkhelpwanted.com, a job site. I have no idea what While-Alls are or if they even exist at all. Ah - the power of advertising!
