GKRS - Charlotte in North Carolina
|
A toe tapping program with a feast of ragtime piano, as well as blues and country music. And in the News from Lake Wobegon, that little town on the edge of the prairie, it's been a quiet week there, as in every other week—except that the post office has the latest issue of new stamps so they're pretty pleased.
But the natural pessimism of the locals is reinforced by the rain, and another decisive loss by the town football team.
