JC has not missed a Cardinals playoff game since 1985. But he doesn’t want you, the listener, to have sympathy for him. (And we know you don’t.)
JC wants to remind you that last year on November 30th, we had an ice storm.
Mrs. Gladys Kravitz is the epitome of the “nosy neighbor.” On Bewitched (1964-1972) she was portrayed by Alice Pearce from the show's premiere in 1964 until Pearce's death in 1966 and then by Sandra Gould from 1966 until her last appearance in 1971.
The Cardinals didn’t pick up the option on So Taguchi, who had seven stolen bases in 2007. David Eckstein led the team with 10. Mike Shannon said that even though So’s option hasn’t been picked up, he still may remain a Cardinal.
Mike was on with us again. He says Stan Musial was the best player he’s ever seen. He was right about Tony La Russa staying with the club and he’s happy about the John Mozeliak hire. Mike is up for the Ford Frick award to be elected into Cooperstown. Vote here.
In the course of 5 minutes, we talked about birth control being bad for the heart & the Archbishop’s schism with Saint Stanislaus.
In Utah, Mark Hacking shot his wife, Lori, in the head while she slept and was sentenced to six years to life in prison. He went & bought a mattress before reporting his wife missing. That kinda tipped off the cops.
Does anyone know if Bull Semen costs more than gasoline per gallon?
How does one know when a fish is drunk?
This is now a national story: the Mascoutah, IL girl who had to serve two detentions for giving hugs. Does it apply to sports? Do they have a wrestling team? Is the principal a crazy lone wolf? Or is it the school board? Or the lawyers? Watch. This. Space.
If you hear Dave Murray say “atmospheric capacity” on the teevee, he got that from JC.

On another “Trek” note, Kobayashi is both a competitive eater & a training exercise in the “Star Trek” universe as depicted in Wrath of Kahn.
We had folks on from the March of Dimes on the air this morning to talk about about Broadcasters for Babies. Hey pregnant women, get some folic acid & don’t smoke! Learn more here.
On February 15, 1975 Gino Vannelli became the first Caucasian to sing on “Soooooooooooul Train” (which continued to air until 2006).
Finally, during the last writer’s strike “Star Trek: the Next Generation” was in production. Instead of not honoring the strike, they used scripts from a never aired 1970s Gene Roddenberry project. It was called “StarTrek: Phase II.”
