(I swear the grand opening will happen eventuall...more than likely in concert with the first anniversary edtion)

Editor's Note: This is the playlist that wasn't meant to be...First, my copy was printed on paper already full of stuff, rendering it close to unreadable. Second, I have had to submit away from the home base, meaning I can't look up stuff if I am unsure of the details. Next, my previous submitted version did the e-mail Bermuda Triangle impression and was totally lost. Not a big thing EXCEPT, I finally wrote a line I was proud of and I am unable to recreate it. Finally, I am not totally sure this program existed in the first place.

(oh yeah, there was a pretty strange True Stories R Us too)

That being said, this program is a candidate for my top ten ever...
