"Somebody just gave me a shower radio. Thanks a lot. Do you really want music in the shower? I guess there's no better place to dance than a slick surface next to a glass door."
— Jerry Seinfeld

"I'm not trouble at all. I'm just a guy trying to get a girl to give him the time of day. I'm like every song on the radio."
— Trey from "Boy Crazy" by Hailey Abbott

"Television, radio, and all the sources of amusement and information that surround us in our daily lives are also artificial props. They can give us the impression that our minds are active, because we are required to react to stimuli from the outside. But the power of those external stimuli to keep us going is limited. They are like drugs. We grow used to them, and we continuously need more and more of them. Eventually, they have little or no effect. Then, if we lack resources within ourselves, we cease to grow intellectually, morally, and spiritually. And we we cease to grow, we begin to die."
— Mortimer J. Adler (How to Read a Book)

"No one wants to admit we're addicted to music. That's just not possible. No one's
addicted to music and television and radio. We just need more of it, more channels, a
larger screen, more volume. We can't bear to be without it, but no, nobody's addicted.
We could turn it off anytime we wanted.
I fit a window frame into a brick wall. With a little brush, the size for fingernail polish, I
glue it. The window is the size of a fingernail. The glue smells like hair spray. The smell
tastes like oranges and gasoline."
— Chuck Palahniuk (Lullaby)

"when I become death. Death is the seed from which I grow."
— William S. Burroughs

"Squidward: You may have hoodwinked everyone else in this bathwater town, but you can't fool me! I listen to public radio.

Plankton: What's that supposed to mean?"
— Squidward and Plankton

"THE MANY FACES OF SURVIVAL

Sunday, August 10th at 2:00 PST

Dachau Liberator, medical whistle-blower, award winning writer, college professor and world renowned garlic farmer, Chester Aaron, talks about the hard choices he’s had to make, why he made them, and how it’s changed his life.

Mr. Aaron was recognized by the National Endowment for the Arts, and received the Huntington Hartford Foundation fellowship which was chaired by Aldous Huxley and Tomas Mann. He also inspired Ralph Nader to expose the over-radiation of blacks in American hospitals.

Now Mr. Aaron is a world-renowned garlic farmer who spends his days writing about the liberation of Dachau. He is 86 years old and he has a thousand stories to tell. Although he has published over 17 books, he is still writing more and looks forward to publishing again soon.
