                                                                       Jim the Ripper

A selection of hours past and present for this Presidents Day holiday were featured on PhilTV and Tune In including Raj Feneen and son Todd singing doo wop to celebrate Ramadan. Dr. Jim Sadler offered his theory on not only who Jack the Ripper was but who Jim the Ripper might be, a serial killer operating at the same time as Jack who euthanized dogs and cats. A Classic hour from 2005 featured Jay Santos and his Citizens Auxiliary Police asking people whether or not they were married before they checked into a motel

“There was a time you had to show a marriage certificate. Now, you don’t have to show a marriage certificate. I gotta ask myself why.”–Jay Santos, Citizens Auxiliary Police

Now’s the time to BSP it so this doesn’t happen to you!

                                                     The Carpenters

Margaret sang a variety of Carpenter songs for Valentines Day although she did her usual “lyrical improvisation” which basically means singing any lyric that comes into her head. For “Close to You” she sang “close to me” and for “Top Of The World: she sang it from the perspective of someone who’s bipolar. Phil found the story he’d been searching for about a man and wife on a honeymoon in Hawaii and how she allegedly was bit by a shark and bled to death. No body and everyone has to take the guys word for it. Back to the Valentines songs, Margaret all of a sudden demed the lyrics to “Afternoon Delight” filthy and refused to sing them. Too many refrences to “nibbling.”

Margaret Grey sings some Valentines favorites tonight. Click here, that’s right. Here. Good.
