goodbye to new year with fresh facts.

I'm Adam Curry coming to you from the heart of the Texas Hill Country.

Time once again to spin the wheel of topics from here to Northern Virginia.

Please say hello to my friend on the other end.

Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Mo Fax.

How you know, Adam?

I am doing good.

I'm loving the band, man.

I'm a big fan of high school and college bands.

Did you know that?

This, you know, I don't know exactly when it gripped me, but I think I was like 15 or 16.

bicentennial 76 we went we went back to um we came on vacation from the netherlands of the states

and so it was big it was the big bicentennial celebration 200 years of america and the two things

i really love was watching the drill team.

sergeant walks in between.
