It may be the day after Independence Day, but it's still the holiday weekend, so this week's show end with a couple of patriotic tunes and some food for thought. I made the announcement in the intro that we had two birthday segments on the show. While Harry M. Snodgrass does have a birthday salute, even though I announced it, Alvin Kaufman does not. The playlist was changed just before I recorded the show and I forgot to update the intro in the script and read it without remembering the change. Instead, there's a segment about islands. We'll also visit the zoo and do some waddlin'.
