Sounds like he was in pretty bad shape his last weeks/months, so I'm glad that at least his suffering is over.  Still, he was a voice I grew up with; he'll be missed.  RIP, Mr. Kasem.

Many was the Sunday night that I laid in bed listening to American Top 40.  I soon put two and two together and got Shaggy.  And Robin.  The man had a great voice and a positive energy that couldn't be beat.

Toonces - Don't ask me, I just close my eyes and take it.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

Casey was the voice of Sunday afternoons back in Germany in the mid-80s, as American Top 40 was religious listening for us.  I still have tapes of songs off the radio back then, including most of the end-of-year countdowns for '84 and '85.  He was required listening then, and I hated when he turned it over to someone else.

Dr. Demento was better.


To continue the Sunday night line up, AT40 was over at 9.  The there was a comedy show that had skits from Stiller & Meara, Bob Newhart, Monty Python, Robin Williams, Bill Cosby, et al.  And at 10 was Dr. Demento.  All in all, a great way to spend a Sunday night going to sleep as a ten year old.
