Well, ladies and gentlemen, we got some big names by and real estate in Southern California this week.

That's one thing you'll find out by staying tuned. It's also here in Southern California a rainy day. Rare enough, but it's the rainy day when 20,000 people are running 26 miles. Now that's a recipe for fun, isn't it? And we'll make fun at their expense, moments from now. Welcome, it's the La Show. So, I picked up the receipts and then I got the tire told me I was going to send the numbers hoping you'd be home.

Couldn't wait to tell you what was on my mind. And I heard a busy signal at the end of the night, I waited half a minute and I tried it again. If you don't hang up, I'm going to have to bust it. Don't you know baby, I'm in love with you, I got your number. All my money is on the line, I got your number, all of them you can find. And I'm in love with you.

And I heard a busy signal at the end of the night, I waited half a minute and I tried it again. And I heard a busy signal at the end of the night, I waited half a minute and I tried it again.

I took a wrong turn of events, I made a wrong fork at the situation. I've been talking to you in your absence and I've fabricated quite a turn of events. I never knew it would come to this.

Come back, come back to God's hands, your every wish is his command. I've been talking to you in my absence and my narrow past is made nonsense of it all. And I never knew it would come to this. I decide what I believe.

I decide what I believe, at least I've got belief. Hello, American. What have you done to preserve, protect, and pay for American freedom today? I'm Lieutenant Colonel Oliver North, United States Marine Corps retired and I want to talk to you about some very brave people. A pretty big victory up on the scoreboard. For the first time in human history they terminated enough people to force a communist government to allow free elections.

The victory of the forces of democracy means they end to U.S. government funding of the countries. They can't go to the Soviets for aid. They have to turn to us, you and me, to get them semi-permanent rental housing in Honduras or to help them with resettlement and with down payment on a service master franchise back home. To keep sending ammunition that now serves as freedom's backbone, freedom's smoke detector, freedom's car alarm, to provide needed food and medical supplies, fax machines, and updated computer software. You know, one of the best friends that Contra has ever had was John Hull, an American who owned a ranch in Costa Rica. He's back home now, but in his name we've started the John Hull Society.

It's the direct connection between concerned Americans like yourself and a Contra soldier that you can adopt for just pennies an hour. But don't think your adopted country gets all the benefits. You get photographs of your country, you get to follow his progress to walk a mile in his boots, carry his pack over the next hill, detonate his next explosive device in a district that voted Sandinista. If you like, you can write to your Contra. But most important, you get the satisfaction of knowing that the hemisphere's best defense against a resurgence of Marxism doesn't have to break up like a burned out rock band. It's now when so many Americans are ready to let down their guard that the communist menace is most dangerous. Won't you help keep just one Contra on freedoms on a roll, in freedoms choir, at freedoms trough? Please call today for free information to the John Hull Society, 1-700-342 Boys. You'll get descriptive literature and an invitation to join the people behind the people on the front lines.

When you get the envelope with my picture on it, just open it, check the boxmark, yes, and give us your visa or master card number. As soon as we receive it by return mail, your relationship with your Contra begins. Will it change your life? American, it changed mine. Call today. Oh, and don't worry if you forget to call. That's what Danny Ortega wants you to do. Call now. Two dollars for first minute. Proceeds to the John Hull X tradition defense fund. You smile when we part it. It hurt me somehow. I thought there was nothing worthwhile. The table who's attorney and you're flying now. While I am just learning to smile. Oh, sorry now. Oh, sorry now. Whose heart is aching for breaking each vow.

Oh, sad and blue. Oh, it's crying too. Just like I cried over you. Right to the end. Just like a friend. I tried to warn you somehow. You had your way. Now you must pay. I'm glad that you're sorry now. Although I forgive you, I cannot forget how you shattered all my ideals.

You smile when I told you that you would regret. And now you know just how it feels. Right to the end. Just like a friend. I tried to warn you somehow. You had your way. Now you must pay. I'm glad that you're sorry. I'm glad that you're sorry now. Well, the language is so full of shifting and various meanings I find, especially someone else's language. So here's an update from the Lishokansai desk or Kansai desk.

It's because there are two words which I was confusing for your listening pleasure. Kansai in addition to the district in Japan in which the factory is located. And this is not me talking. This is information gleaned from listeners. So blame, blame listeners if they're wrong. But I think they're right. Like I know potato farmer. It's a derogatory meaning of Kansai potato farmer. It also refers to torpedo launch or an airplane launched from an aircraft carrier. My arm is up raised ladies and gentlemen. I don't know. I can't figure it out. And it also is reputed to mean either shrewd or sharp business practices. Kansai. Kansai on the other hand. You see refers to the soul of an object. That would be I think what they're what they're getting at with this engineering deal is we you know if you engineer it for the soul of the object and it would correctly then it would feel so forth.

But it also. Kansai implies quietness completion. And just to confuse you further it also indicates or can be used to indicate government control or manipulation. Thank you so much. Don't say you don't learn anything by listening to the radio. Okay. Don't ever say that again. So the official answer is in from the people who conducted the public opinion polls in Nicaragua as to why they got it so terribly terribly terribly wrong. The people lied. Nothing wrong with the methodology. Nothing wrong with the science. You know blame the rats. Hey, the machines worked blame the rats. But I have it on good authority that ABC News Washington Post pollsters are going back right now to take a survey and ask the people why they lied. So we'll have good hard numbers for you on that. Very, very shortly. Meanwhile, probably an odd mixture of feelings must be swirling about Vin Scully at the moment his network NBC of course lost baseball lost the right to broadcast baseball.

I think shortly after that happened he left. Because what are you going to do if you're a baseball guy and there's no baseball broadcast by the same token. There must be a little grin on his face because the people who got baseball CBS can't broadcast any baseball because there's a lockout going on. Which would mean that there's a big void in a lot of people's lives that a guy like Vin could fill. Moments from now on the show. Um amor assim delicado. Você pega despreza. Não devia ter despertado. Ajo ele e não resa.

Dessa coisa que mete medo pela sua grandeza. Não sou o único copado. Disso eu tenho a certeza. Princesa surpresa. Você me arrasou. Ser feite nem sente que me enganou. Senhora e agora me digo de novo. Senhora certente princesa. Um amor assim violento. Quando torna-sem água. É o avesso de um sentimento. Você é ano sem água.

Quando as desejos de vingança nessa desnatureza. Vai tem forte sem esperança. Outra tua dureza. Princesa surpresa. Você me arrasou. Ser feite nem sente que me enganou. Senhora e agora me digo de novo. Senhora certente princesa. Um amor assim delicado. Não devia ter despertado. Não devia ter despertado.

Dessa coisa que mete medo pela sua grandeza. Não devia ter despertado. Não sou o único copado. Você me arrasou. Ser feite nem sente que me enganou. Senhora e agora me digo de novo. Amiga me diga. Senhora e agora me digo de novo.

Amiga me diga. Amiga me diga. Amiga me diga. Amiga me diga.

Amiga me diga. Amiga me diga. Amiga me diga. Amiga me diga.

Star Spangled Banner has been sung most gloriously by the temp staff from the accounting office down the hall. And Don Fear is going to have his hands full because warming up with some off the cuff statements to the sporting news is the commissioner himself. Who's court is the ball in? Vincent and Don Fear went around and around at their last couple of meetings. And there's no umpire to help with the decision so it really is a test of wills.

So behind Chuck O'Connor head of the owners player relations committee just about all the owners could do was earn a trip back to this office. The lawyer is so many of the members of both teams are but Chuck went to law school at night. A reminder next meeting of these two teams is cap night the verse 20 players attending will be receiving a free salary cap compliments of buglements brewers of bug light the beer that keeps the insects away. Anyway getting back to O'Connor the interesting part is what he did during the day while he went to law school at night.

Don Fear takes a deep breath and takes a little walk away from the conference table and just just touches his briefcase. Fear you'll find will go to the briefcase a lot more often than he'll actually open it. Anyway Chuck O'Connor worked as a counterman you know take out pizza parlor right here in New York City. Fear settling back in getting signals from the facial expressions from his lawyer and now he goes to work. Anyways or you might say at least for the players a slice of pizza from Chuck O'Connor would be indeed the unkindest cut of all. And on fear delivers it's a two paragraph accusation that the owners are playing hardball could be very tough to handle but Vincent rocks back deep in his chair takes a look at the owners and calls time. So we are not it up tighter than grandma's laundry line at tornado time at the end of one no score.

I've seen bananas waving her somewhere close to land I've seen people kneel and pray at the feet of an Irishman. Something's going to free the world and the song is an open door. Come on don't fool yourself you can't change the world anymore. I've seen people rise and fall they're nothing but a bakery.

I've seen people give their lives to make a better one for you and with so much blood sweat and tears and things that they could have done. Hey man don't kill yourself you can't change the world anymore. All you can do is fill the gaping hole between the day you're born and when you're done. This world's going to change out of it or do it with or without you. Get me on the gospel stage there's a message here that I gotta say. One thing I'm going to say to you then I'm going to shut up for good.

Don't cool yourself you can't change the world anymore. I'm going to cool yourself. I'm going to shut up for good. I'm going to shut up for good. I'm going to shut up for good.

I'm going to shut up for good. I'm going to shut up for good. I'm going to shut up for good. I'm going to shut up for good.

Two hundred years ago an idea was born an idea so simple but we sometimes forget how profound it really was. That's why we at CBS Television think it's time to take time out to take time to take another look at this most simple and profound of all human statements of individual dignity. The Bill of Rights. We at CBS Television support it and with your help we may even put it into practice sometime real soon. I'm going to shut up for good.

I'm going to shut up for good. I'm going to shut up for good. Yeah, so Andy Runny's back, see?

I wish, you know, don't you wish it worked that way in school where they'd like punish you for no reason like they would in school and then just if your friends objected to say, well, no, it's okay then you can come back now. Your real life was better than school. You don't suppose Americans lie to pollsters do you? You don't suppose those thirty people from the shopping mall that come in and tell the Disney people?

Yeah, I'd like to see a movie about that. You don't think those people lie do they? I hope not. Not a money writing on that. Ladies and gentlemen, I was in New York this past week and just to give you a feeling of the flavor of one of the nation's most thrilling metropolis. The new solution to homeless people in the subway stations is the subway authority is bounded determined to make the subway a more attractive place for paying customers. The new solution is since the homeless people were sleeping on the benches in the subway stations, they're taking the benches out of the subway stations. It's con say thinking over there at the New York subways. By the same token this week, a coalition of business and other serious people introduced a campaign in New York City trying to encourage get this politeness in New York with the slogan lighten up New York.

And a picture of an angry cab driver. I would say think to work on first is teaching the cab drivers that, you know, the numbers are consecutive on the streets. That would be a way to make people more polite. You didn't have to tell your cab driver, no, no, see 46th street, then 47th street. It goes like that. Or just give the cab drivers the benches. I don't know. Some synergy there. Well, I'm beginning to feel the effects of the primary treated the partially treated sewage ladies and gentlemen. So I better split before, you know, anything untoward happens. But I'll be back next week at the same time.

And on many, if not most, probably all of these same stations. What the heck. A cassette copies of the show are available. If you desire one, the price is $10. You make a check out to Century of Progress Productions and indicate the date of the show you desire and send all of that in an envelope, if you please. To the show, 1900 Pico Boulevard, PICO Boulevard, Santa Monica, California, 90405. And do me this one favor, won't you have an extremely polite week? Thank you so much for listening.

The show comes to you from Century of Progress Productions and originates through the facilities of SAS, a satellite service of KCRW Santa Monica, the home of the homeless. We don't need no stinkin' benches. And now, stay tuned for Joe Frank and work in progress. That's next, followed at noon by Roberto Lestangelo with Cafe Brazil 2 o'clock, the reggae beat. Five o'clock, you stop dancing, you find out what's going on. It's all things considered. All right here on KCRW Santa Monica, a community service of Santa Monica College at 89.9 FM National Public Radio for most of Southern California. In 30 seconds, it will be 11 o'clock.

And now, from National Public Radio, Joe Frank, work in progress. This program... ... ... ...
