Yes, that is a picture of me kissing Oscar Wilde's grave in the Père Lachaise cemetery in Paris. No, I didn't have lipstick on at the time. & no, I didn't get hepatitis from pressing my lips where so many had before.
It was in January of 2007 that I visited Paris for the first (& so far only) time in my life. But tonight on Self Help Radio, we'll not only visit Paris for three hours, we'll talk to a real Parisian, to a friend (I guess you'd call her an expatriate) who lives in Paris, & to a friend in Belgium who loves Paris. In addition to my usual clumsy musical choices, my guests picked songs which made them think of Paris. It should be a lovely experience.
Oh I almost forgot! The idea for the show came from a listener. The show has a text line (it's 971-319-4847) & I was chatting with someone a month or so ago, & he said I should do a show about Paris. & so I shall.
It's on tonight from midnight to 3am on 90.7 fm KBOO in Portland, kboo.fm everywhere. (That's around 9am to noon Paris time.)
