"Persons of Color" April 13, 2007

(Week 74)

Tonight at 8 PM on RADIOLA! we explore color--but in a nice way. (I expect various persons afflicted with Political Correctness will be offended that I even suggested such a topic. They probably won't even examine the playlist below and will certainly be too livid to listen. Fine. They can go bask in the exhalations of some dessicated folksinger after they write WHCL to say what I villain I am.)
