I noticed the return of the song by Foster the People, but I really love Ryan Farish's new song and just the return of his music. My hope is to one day hear "Oasis" again. That might be my favorite song out of any, and there's a chance again at least!

I just thought about tours the other day. I was thinking with more programming in the middle of the day between Weather Center Live, TWC could host more tours.

I really hope she wins because she has awesome points about having the right to serve her country and maintain her job outside of that service. Unfortunately, people do get fired for business reasons, as stated with Alexandra Steele and with the other layoffs in 2008 and 2009, so I don't see how she can fight that very vague statement--"business reasons."

I was just recently think "Walking Through" by Kaya Project. So beautiful.

I fell in love with that one once I heard it but which song from the September 09 morning? Wipeout by the Surfaris?

Oops, I meant October 2009. I was thinking of Chet Akins' "Rocky Top," but the one you pointed out sounds even more like it!

I don't like "Alejandro" (especially the beginning), but I do like "Hellecaster Theme." That's a catchy one; it reminds me of another song like it on the September 2009 morning playlist.

I've seen a few people change their usernames lately.  I just want to remind everyone that we have a 3-month rule here, so you cannot change your username more often than every 3 months.  I have added it to the Rules page as I found that previous administrators had not written it there.

You mean change the display name? I didn't know one could change the actual username they registered with.

Does the forum have a prevention feature to not allow one to surpass three name changes or is it just a personal request? I don't plan on doing so, but I like to know the mechanics around here.

Realistically, I think they can bring songs from Ryan Farish. "Groovemension" and "Enchanted" were both great sounding ones in recent times. Wouldn't mind some music from Maserati, either.

When does "Frail" play? I love that one, too.

For a second, I thought this was a moderator application or something. 

I definitely think Andy will do great. I can say that he's been helpful to me in many ways, especially when it came to info about the best universities to attend to study meteorology.

I'd hate to see a topic like this get out of control for silly reasons. Definitely bigger issues out there.

What time does Solar Sailer play? That's a good one!

Anyone know the song that just played at 6:48 CDT? I may have heard that one in '06 or '07! Sounded very familiar, and no vocals.

There still might be a song or two by Ryan Farish for the overnight.

Oh, well. It's not that surprising, really. I like this music better than loud rock, though. Could always be worse.

Hey, the return of playlists is nice...period. Ryan Farish isn't necessarily jazz, so maybe we haven't seen the last of him yet!

The times will need to be adjusted, though. LF's aren't 2 minutes anymore--currently, anyway.

With the shorter LF's, I don't seem to be getting my Marine Forecast or Almanac anymore. Anyone else notice this? The graphics were so good on the IS2, and I'll be sad if I can't see them anymore.
