Links will not appear in more than two categories (excluding the very first category). I have also added two more 'Daily Water Newsletters' to increase coverage. These are the Midcontinent US Water News Daily (#MCUSwater) and the Southeast US Water News Daily (#SEUSwater). The former samples news media within 500 miles of Kansas City, KS and the latter within Knoxville, TN). With the other seven dailies this affords pretty good daily coverage for the USA.

Today's Tunes
Today's Tune - 29 Sept. 2023. The Association was a superlative group writing, singing and playing. My fave is 'Along Comes Mary', a song rumored to be about marijuana. Co-founder Terry Kirkman died last week at 83. https://youtu.be/URUd5RUAz1I?si=3OWHomN650N2Pgwt… #aquadocaudio
Today's Tunes - 28 Sept 2023. In my brief (4 yrs) stint as WCWM DJ Joe South was my fave singer-songwriter. Still is. Great messages: 'Rose Garden'. 'Walk A Mile In My Shoes', 'Games People Play', 'These Are Not My People' et al. https://youtu.be/hlqcnTDp-_o?si=5a7-T4cROa7Tg_dc… #aquadocaudio
Today's Tune - 27 Sept 2023. 'Can't Buy A Thrill' is the Steely Dan album that gave us 'Do It Again'. Where did the name 'Steely Dan' some from? Look it up! https://youtu.be/LrwCj6sL2pk?si=dj-xAwZPTzxR7D2T… #aquadocaudio
Today's Tune - 26 Sept 2023. I was never a big fan of the Commode Doors - oops - Commodores - but 'Easy' is an exception. Could listen to this and Lionel Richie's voice all day! And 'Brick House'. Then 'Machine Gun' and...You go, guys! https://youtu.be/saaLW0jiiUE?si=FgPwM-_k4n2NxiEo… #aquadocaudio
