Further to Wednesday's post: while working with a student to use Outlook with JAWS, he wanted to send his classroom teacher a joke about 90s hip-hop, but he couldn't think of one when it came time to write the message. In about 30 seconds, I came up with the following. Why wasn't Tupac Shakur afraid of insects? Because he was super fly.
It's rather short notice, but stars seem to be aligning for a rare Thursday night John Zone for anyone who may need a few hours of spontaneous stupid. I know that I do. If there are no unexpected fires to put out, this will begin at 9PM Eastern Time at

At 9:30, I had an appointment at a primary school with a student learning Copilot and JAWS; Zoom meetings at 11, 12, and 1, a Teams meeting promoting an AI course at 2, and conducted a home visit with someone at 3:15 to set up a pair of Meta glasses.

The condo in which we stayed included a garbage chute, and as kids, we always enjoyed going to the top floor to drop trash down it for the great sound it made.

There's a bit of sickness going around at the moment in the John Zone household. While this will delay a broadcast tonight, it is a long weekend down in the land of sunshine and sharks, so there will be a broadcast of some sort coming up in the next day or two. Keep those official John Zone coloring books handy. www.hkcradio.com
As this will be my week for band rehearsalizifying, there will not be a live broadcast tonight. However, as he would have turned 70 this week, you may enjoy another random archive from Venison Stew beginning at 9PM Eastern Time. Today's selection is taken from June 21, 2011. www.hkcradio.com
I typically don't promote early, but with things almost back to normal on my end, the fortnightly John Zones return starting tomorrow at 9PM Eastern Time. The fact this broadcast falls on what would have been Venison's 70th birthday means the stupid will definitely be cranked up a notch.
