Happy Earth Day!
Hope you enjoyed the listener suggested John Denver during the 80's at 8, ahh..I had visions of his plant a tree psa's you used see during Saturday Morning Cartoons. There is a whole host of old psa's on www.youtube.com , including the crying Indian, Mr Yuk and one about energy saving I remember watching soo many times, we played the Woodsie Owl Psa about litter..we really littered a lot back in the 70's and 80's, trash all over the parks.
The strange Maine question focused on Maine's First..Maine was the on the first to enact what ornamental policy? The bottle bill was the answer.
On a personal note..my daughter finally made to Virgina..with lime green luggage.

April 14'th
Good day All,
I spent the weekend trying to get my friend, James, onto Big Brother 10. The auditions were held in Bangor on Saturday and as a good agent I stood in cold and wind, surveying his competition and doing my best to support and coach. It was an interesting experience to say the least and it would be cool if any one I saw in Bangor made it on to the cast.
This week our Strange Maine is focusing on what is actually still made in Maine. I love it when I find some interesting product being manufactured right here in Maine..like today for instance,though I guess it was easy for most, Val Firth in Newport is the largest manufacturer of drum sticks in the nation. Tomorrow will continue on that theme.
We are getting geared up for the finals of the Maine State Air-Guitar on May 2'nd .just one more week to qualify. Ahh, we've seen so many air-filled guitarist..it's not going to be an easy pick.

April 7'th Monday- A quick goodbye
I just wanted to say quick good bye to our friend and winter companion..Mixed Nuts, the chipmunk that has been harassing and amusing us for the past couple months at the station. We walked into the building to find the have- a- heart trap (hid nicely under some newspaper, with Hershey miniatures as the bait) worked, and our little furry buddy had finally been out-smarted. I think I can say for all of here at Mix 107.9, though none of us appreciated the "gifts" left our desks, the ripped up food packages and the ongoing fear you were going fall through the ceiling tiles and land on my head, you, Mixed Nuts, you will not be soon forgotten. Good luck Mixed Nuts, good luck.
