April 16 2001

The first night of Ventriloquism Karaoke.
   Jason performed three numbers: Point Blank, Heart of Mine, and Shaft.
   Paul Cannon was delivering a Dunn and Burke purse to a friend when he spotted the Ventriloquism Karaoke sign -up sheet outside the Blazeradio station. He decided to participate and put on a stunning performance of Prince's Raspberry Beret. During the performance, Hank Lazard crossed his arms.
   Blazeradio General Manager Terry Turner also stopped by and performed Special Lady by Carl Thomas. Terry inluded some choreography with his routine and put on quite a performance, although he gave most of the credit to a very cooperative Hank Lazard.
   We also reviewed Bob Dylan songs that could be played at your sisters wedding. This has led to the first topic discussed in the new Forum part of our web page.

The second night of Ventriloquism Karaoke was milder than the first.
There were no outside performers. Jason performed It's Over by Roy Orbison.
There was also a worrisome amount of reading. A letter of complaint that contained very little complaining, along with a poem that wasn't very poetic. Could this be the beginning of a Letters, Poems, and Short stories page?
