Whither One Thousand?

(Image from here.)

This week on Self Help Radio - one thousand songs!

Wait, let me clarify - there will be one thousand songs although the number of songs on the show will probably not be one thousand.  Usually we average about thirty songs per episode, give or take.  Depends on how long they are.  & how much I talk.  In any event, let's say we'll have around thirty one thousand songs on the show this week.  Still, on the show, there will be nothing but one thousand songs.  Songs about things that number one thousand.  Gosh, I can see how that might be confusing.  If only there were a cleared way to express that.  But I suppose there isn't.

Therefore!  Listen to Self Help Radio tomorrow from 8 to 10am on Freeform Portland - 90.3 & 98.3 fm in the city, freeformportland.org everywhere - to hear one thousand songs!  Only one thousand songs!  Nothing but one thousand songs!*

*Again, though, the actual number of songs won't be one thousand.  I mean, just doing the math, each song would have to be no longer than seventy-two seconds each, & that would be without any talk at all, which, if you've heard the show, that will never ever happen.
