Cradle To Grave (Episode Eleven)

Eleven episodes!  So many birthdays!  So much death!

Do you think anyone has ever written those two sentences together?  "So many birthdays, so much death"?  I hope so, because if they haven't, I may be a creepier person than even I think I am!

The show is available now for both birthday parties & funerals (please not at the same time) (see, I told you: creep!) at the Self Help Radio website.  The show is divided into two parts as befits the two opposite occasions the show is about, & you can see what's in the parts below.  Pay attention to password stuff.  That's on the front page.

Maybe it's a good alternative to a "super bowl"?
