Show #64: Bill Clinton, Arafat, Mandela and a mission from Raffi

So, what can I say....It's been a month, far too long a gap between shows to keep any kind of a loyal listener base, so I do apologize. A few prods from listeners prompted me to get back in front of the microphone, iRiver and iPod, to put together a new show. In the interim, I've been travelling to Montreal and Vancouver, and working long days and nights in my new job.

This episode relates a story from November 10, when I went to see Bill Clinton give a talk here in Victoria, and relate his tales of the presidency and his vision for the world. I describe the mission I was on for Raffi, and I also play some music by Tom Waits in anticipation of his new 3 CD release Orphans. Talking about the pending departure of daughter Tessa from the nest, I play a song by Blackie and the Rodeo Kings from their album Bark. The musical bed under the opening segment is from Spheric Lounge, my favorite site for ambient music.

If you have any comments or feedback about today's show, send me an email, or better yet, send me an audio comment at triecken@gmail.com and I'll use it in an upcoming show.
