Quick! Name ten things that glow! I'll go too! Neon signs! Fireflies! Jellyfish (some, not all)! The moon! Sunset! Radioactive elements (not all but I believe plutonium does)! Disgusting liquids at a crime scene under UV rays in a police procedural! Glow sticks (duh)! A light bulb! Zinc sulfide (I looked that one up)!
Maybe it's hard to name things that glow but boy things that glow are neat. I never had those glowing stars some kids' parents put in their bedrooms (which are made with zinc sulfide) but I envied them. Hey! Another thing that glows is a night lite! & Lite Brite! Just let your mind sink into the glow & you'll realize we're surrounded by glowing things. & how wonderful that is.
Which brings me (sorry) to tonight Self Help Radio, which has the theme "glow," & which will probably not glow in the dark from midnight to 3am (it's technically Tuesday morning but it feels like Monday night). You can listen in Portland at 90.7 fm & everywhere online at kboo.fm. It'll be much of the same thing but this time you can imagine it glowing!
