The things you learn on the Tube

The things you learn on the Tube

After a long day of being cultural and scientific in London with Kildegaards a few weeks ago, we got on the Tube back to Liverpool Street and the train back to Colchester. Looking across into the next car on the Underground, I was surprised to learn that a volcano was expected to erupt in Rome!

Turns out it’s a reference to a rugby player in an international match. And here I thought it was gonna be Pompeii all over again, but with more automobiles.

3.1415927 reasons to tune in to KUMM (on- or off-line)

Fri 4-6pm at KUMM (Spring 2008)

  • They have a fancy new redesigned web site.
  • You can check out cool photos like the one above in their new gallery.
  • They have the schedule on-line so you know who you’re listening to!
  • They’re way cooler than the lame radio station that those other people are listening to.
  • You know you want to listen to a station where the DJs have that many CDs to play with.
  • We’re in Britain, so you’ll almost guaranteed not to hear our voices for several months. (It’s not 100%, though, because the promo spots that we’ve done over the years have a habit of turning up now and then.)
  • Cory Funk (a mighty and wondrous KUMM alum) is back on the air and has a killer 1 hour show at 5pm (Central time) on KUST. (Yeah, I realize that I’m plugging another station here, but Cory wouldn’t be that amazing without all his KUMM experience, now would he?)

I enjoy listening at what are very odd hours back in Minnesota and then IM’ing requests. It really messes with their heads to have profs listening at 3am…
