Everybody gets time off but me

Add to my PageThis is The Redneck Cabbie and a lady I would guess to be his wife or at least close enough not to mind being in pictures with him. His blog can be read by clicking the photo. He is one of the cab drivers we have been fortunate enough to help make Chill With Phil. This week we have no show to speak of. Don my producer had a few days off to do the things that parents do in getting kids ready for school. Dan the owner of Green and Go cabs has been on vacation and this week and this weekend Justin and Mirabelle our control room experts have taken off as well. This leaves me with few options other than to extract a few of the contestants from an older show and group them all together in one big episode I call Go For The Green Spectacular. Another blow off show. The movie Voyage To The Planet of Prehistoric Women is a time honored favorite however and well worth watching this fascinating Russian-Coreman collaboration.
This is the third and last time we will show Voyage. It has a fascinating history. It is a Russian made film called Planeta Bur (The Planet of Storms or Stormy Planet). It was purchased by Roger Coreman who hired Peter Bogdonavich to re-write the script. Peter hired Maime Van Doren and some other nice blond girls to mill about a set wearing seashells instead of wonder bras. These girls act out a plot line based around lizard worship while Bogdanovicth tries hard to make it all make sense. Coreman like the result so much that he commissioned the film to be re-worked a few years later and instead of Van Doren we have Basil Rathbone in Voyage to the Prehistoric Planet.

And speaking of pre-history...This is a snapshot dating back to 1996, probably around Christmas with Greg Tiller my on air partner at 102.3 The X , the legendary classic rock station which went off the air in 1999 and was transformed into 102.3 JAMZ which got sued for saying jamz and then became 102.3 The Beat...

Tiller who also seems to be able to take time off work was back in town this week with his new wife and announced that at 46 years old, he is about to become a daddy for the first time!

My best wishes to Greg and his new family. Sorry I didn't get to touch base with you, try calling first next time.
