(image of Portland neighborhoods with borders from here)
Okay, I spent a small amount of time on that image up there but I started thinking about the word "border" & wondered if someone made a word cloud with that word & all its related words & of course someone did. I found this one here:
That might have been fun to talk about on a radio show about borders but alas! This week's Self Help Radio just played a lot of songs about borders & had silly interviews, with a border guard named Narghoul, with a fellow who is suing the book chain Borders, & with a geographer who draws borders in disputes. Also, our friend Chuck stopped by to talk about actual movies featuring borders but honestly he's no less silly. The lesson is to not expect Self Help Radio to be hard-hitting or even informative. You probably already know that.
Listen to the show in two places: on the KBOO website, & at the Self Help Radio website. If you listen at the latter, please make sure you check the username/password information on the page. The songs I played & the things that happen on the show are below.
