This may qualify as the oldest comic book in my collection. The only date it bears in the indicia is 1945. This isn’t Patsy’s first appearance — for that we need to see Miss America Volume 1 Number 2 from 1944, which appears to be rather rare. It is a classic and definitive introduction to [...]

This impromptu broadcast, which happened at 0200 on Friday, June 30, 2006 on our internet radio station, is our 98th Lumpy Gravy Radio Show. This one will perhaps someday get played on WBCQ. It was originally broadcast to a dozen or so faithful listeners on 975pirateradio.com, who were probably confused when we broke into the [...]

This is what happens here when we get more than two months of rain in less than four days. Fortunately, this is as bad as it got and it didn’t cause any damage besides making for a very squishy back yard for the frogs, turtles and snakes to frolic in. I’ve read that the torrential [...]

Our 97th show was originally broadcast at 2200 UTC on Saturday, June 24, 2006, on WBCQ 7.415 MHz worldwide shortwave. Great reception here in Maryland, and listeners checked in with reports from Indiana, Louisiana, Illinois, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania. We’ve been told that this is a rather laid back show. Bill F mentions that there’s a [...]

Saturday, June 24, 2006, 1540, 12160. Kook shortwave! The speaker says the earth is hollow, UFOs come from “polar openings,” “we’re not alone in this earth or on this earth,” Hitler and his Third Reich was in a conspiracy with the “inner earth beings” in World War II which explains the “flying discs” that harrassed [...]

Another score in Jane’s battle with the lawn rodents!

This wild and wacky show was originally broadcast at 2200 UTC on Saturday, June 17, 2006, on the wonderful shortwave station WBCQ in Monticello, Maine, on 7.415 MHz. Only WBCQ would allow us to get away with a broadcast like this. Although shortwave conditions were predicted to be poor, we got reports of good reception [...]

Saturday, June 17, 2006, 1819, 18910. For the first time, WBCQ 18.910 MHz is audible here in Maryland. This means the humidity and hot weather is creeping in. The familiar sounds of the Global Spirit Proclamation are coming in variably strong and weak, and bothered by atmospheric noise. Much better reception in the back yard [...]

Saturday, June 17, 2006, 0311, 6220. Presumed Mystery Radio here again with upbeat music, but unfortunately stomped on by various squawky utilities. SIO 322 with utility pips and atmospheric noice. This station has been regularly noted here around this time most nights for a couple of weeks now.
