It's on this day we remember how we lost the moon. Though it's just 20 years ago, it's strange how quickly we got used to being without it.

@craigmaloney I don't intend to start a new podcast in the near future. I intend to start a freaking stage show: http://coyote.works/posts/MoreCoherentOperationsProposal20190901/OperationsProposal.pdf
Digital could come later, I suppose. The band leader is on board. The person to handle the restaurant/night club aspects is on board. All I need is startup capital.
It won't be "Wait Wait..." from the Chase Bank Auditorium but rather something better, I hope.
