Today we covered bold new territory…. We donated to a political campaign. As you can probably tell from the banner at the top of my pages, we donated to Howard Dean’s campaign. They set a goal of $700K by Sunday for the campaign in Wisconsin. Well, they surpassed that in a single day! So now the goal is $1,400K by Sunday. Hopefully we can do it. Howard needs a win in Wisconsin!

Well… Special X is gone. The protests, e-mail appeals, and downright begging apparently had no effect. Some of the shows are moving to other channels:
- The Best of Doctor Demento is moving to Deep Tracks (40)
- Wabbit Twacks is going to XM Kids (116)
- Wax My Woody is going to Fungus (53)
- Sci Fi Hi Fi is going to Cinemagic (27)
Here are the shows that have been orphaned:
- Cover Songs that Give You A Burning In Your Esophagus
- Meet the Residents
- The Planet Pluto Polka Party (I’ll never forgive Lee Abrams for this one.)
- Magical Misery Tour
- Sixty Second Man
- The Fabulous World of Parrot Training Records
- The Thoroughly Thrilling Theremin Theater
- When Hillbillies Go Bad
- And lastly… Weirdness on Special X… Basically everything else they played
We’ll miss you Special X….
