Happy Birthday, Daniel Pinkwater!

One of the greats. I highly recommend The Snarkout Boys and the Avocado of Death, Fish Whistle, and many, many others.

NPR should give Pinkwater a 2 hour show where he could play corny music and tell stories about his home town.

Amen to that!

Well, Keillor has enough trouble doing that every week he manages...I'd have to wonder if Pinkwater would want that gig. And neither of the two-hour chat/story/musicfests currently on public radio is from NPR...WHADDYA KNOW is distributed by Public Radio International, and A PRAIRIE HOME COMPANION is offered by American Public Media.
