Okay, so maybe it IS a horrendously bad pun, but still...

What's their going rate on insurance against spontaneous combustion?

Don't laugh, it's been known to happen!

Whoah...Low, even for a radio station...Hrr. Anyone else here thinking what I'm thinking? One word: propaganda. Block out what you don't want seen/heard, drown furs in what you do want seen and heard...If furs don't know both sides of the issue, they can't make an opinion for themselves...

Oof.

But... often enough to warrant insurance?

I wonder if there is insurance for
such a thing?

"Even for a radio station"? I hope radio
stations aren't inherantly as nasty as what
Bob and his minions are up to.

I wonder what's going to happen, when Cotton does meet some of these "furry unity" types, and finds out that his message never got out, much less into their heads.

The explosion will be heard for miles, and recorded on seismographs everywhere, I imagine.

After listening to the last "Cotton in your ears" broadcast, Mari knew something fowl was going on (pardon the pun) at FURadio. Carefully she set up a radio and a tape recorder so that whatever was said she would capture.

If things turned out the way she expected, she would see to it that Gene got the tape to have Cotton listen to.

After waking early and starting the recording, a scowl quickly crossed her face as she realized that her suspicions were on the point. She hoped that soon there would be a tar and feathering, and Bob would be providing the feathers...
ANYTHING is possible...within limits.
Those limits are set on ourselves by ourselves.
The trick is getting around them...

Why not? I've read of an alcoholic who accidentally combusted himself once because he'd built up so much alcohol in his system. And then there was the hockey goalie who burst into flames when a puck hit him (okay, so he had one of those combs filled with a combustable gel in his back pocket at the time; close enough). Not to mention...

Maybe I'd better stop there.

Cotton is an acquaintance, perhaps a friend, to the Mayor and his staff. Those in public office should not only recognize, but expect the sort of thing currently going on in radio land.. I'd expect a friendly call from the Mayor's office, explaining the facts of public life to Cotton just any time now.. And possibly offering some help.

Part of living in this world is being ready
to acknowledge the great potential to be
surprised. Every single day.

But will Cotton take it, at this point? And
if he waits too long, will their assistance
be in time?

Oh, Cotton would DEFINTELY want to hear an
exact transcription of that particular show.
