Whither Garages?
For about a month - from mid-December to mid-January - a stray cat lived in our garage. I spent way more time in the garage than I ever really had. Normally, I'm in there to get to the car, or the lawnmower, or the foodstuffs we store there. Until the cat (whose story I talked about here on this blog) stayed there, I never, for example, sat on the garage floor. There was no reason to.
Maybe that's what inspired this show about garages. I don't know. I lived in apartments growing up, & well into my college years, so I never had a garage until I was maybe 36, 37? That garage also mainly held the car. It also held our dog food, which was constantly being eaten by rats. It had rats, too. I remember my girlfriend at the time (now my wife) being amused when I bought a heavy container with metal edges to store the dog food in. The edges, of course, were how the rats gnawed into the containers. I was annoyed at the rats.
That's one garage story, might there be more? Of course there are more! Consider that a taste!
The show happens at noon tomorrow at self help radio dot net. Maybe you have a garage too? Maybe you'll play the show for your garage?
