Steve Post has the vapors this week, so we are offering up an ***ENCORE PERFORMANCE*** of an earlier program. Steve relates how he participated at an early age in that American ritual of self-realization and personal transformation, the cross-country automobile trip. Join Steve as he thrills to the call of the open road. Be there as Steve's father critiques the techniques of his fellow motorists. Listen as Steve says, "More sourballs, please." You probably could have programmed the music yourself, but we did it for you. (This program originated on January 25, 2003.)
