"So Long, Pleasantville" Posted by mame on 12:18:47 8/13/2000 NOTE: This message was last edited 12:18:47, 8/13/2000 So Long, Pleasantville.... I have decided to step outside The Granola Curtain to accept a position as General Manager of KDNK, a public radio station in the Aspen Valley. KDNK broadcasts National Public Radio News and locally produced music and talk shows. Broadcasting on the frequency of 90.5 MHz. from solar powered studios in Carbondale at the base of Mt. Sopris and a tower at the top of Sunlight Peak. KDNK can also be heard at 88.3 MHz. though the Pitkin Co. translator system in Aspen, Basalt, Redstone, Glenwood Springs and Thomasville and at 100.1 in Glenwood Springs. While I won't be "Sittin' Shiva in Pleasantville" any longer covering the Ramsey case moment to moment, I will continue to do interviews and cover breaking news stories in the case. Having a studio to work from will ensure my work in the case is more timely. While I have little hope of an arrest in the brutal murder of JonBenet Ramsey, I would venture back to Boulder to cover every minute of a trial should one miraculously occur. My passion for this case has not been about the murder of one child. She is mighty important. To me her unsolved murder, along with Suzannah Chase's has meant a concern for the safety of the members of this community. I sadly leave here not feeling sure that other murders can be fairly and professionally investigated and prosecuted. As Plasket used to say, "Mary, the fine for parking is higher than for murder in Boulder, Colorado." EACH AND EVERY ONE OF YOU HAS BECOME THE COMMUNITY JONBENET DESERVES, THE COMMUNITY BOULDER ISN'T! I have been asked to do a show on KDNK. I have spoken to BJ about teaming up again for some BJ/Mame rants. This time we'll talk about federal court cases he is covering, politics, and other Colorado style happenings, with our well-known jabs to add color. We'll even step back behind The Granola Curtain to check on things from time to time. You will all be able to hear the show via the Internet from the KDNK studios. I'll keep you posted on the show's debut this fall. Much has been going on in my private life over the last few months preventing me from being timely with my interviews and news reports. My apologies to Dr. Hodges who has patiently waited for Part Two of my interview with him as I was called back twice to interview with the board of the station. We will DO the interview...but it will be done from the new studio at the base of Mt. Sopris. Also, my pal Carol McKinley will give us case updates via the Internet. I'm not saying good-bye. I'm just taking another seat on the couch. I want to thank you all for listening, first to the slow news day reports by Mame & Sadie, and the many Toppcat productions that followed. You suffered through whiny voices, so many ummms that even I wanted to wring Mame's throat, dog barking, doors slamming, tears, belly laughs and zillions of technical difficulties. As I've said many times, I'm having more fun than a middle aged broad should be allowed to have. Special thanks and cheers to Frank DeFreitas, BJ Plasket, and dearly deceased Wanda Cartwright who formed a team to bring you outstanding moment to moment coverage of the final day's of last year's grand jury. We even beat the networks a couple times...using cell phones and larges doses of love and truth! Also, love and thanks to the Divas, Chris Wheeler for the great couch...and the outstanding Mrs. Brady for trumpeting our grassroots work... I've asked Toppcat if we can post those reports as an anniversary tribute. [ ALERT ] [ EDIT ] [ REPLY ] [ REPLY WITH QUOTE ] [ TOP ] [ MAIN ] 1. "Congratulations, mame!"

Your dad would be proud, and I'm sure Tess is popping her buttons. Please don't forget about us as you climb the ladder. We'll all be able to say "I knew her when....".

"Good Luck Mame" Posted by ToppCat on 18:38:48 8/13/2000 It was great working with you Mame. I know how much the reports meant to you, the work that went into them, and how much they were appreciated by the listeners. I'm going to really miss sitting here with the headphones on!!! I want to wish you the best in your new position -- and I'm looking forward to tuning in on the Internet to hear your broadcasts from the station. Good Luck!

"Wait a minute" Posted by mame on 19:08:16 8/13/2000 Mr. Toppcat...I will do the Colorado news with Plasket from the station...BUT, any Ramsey news or interviews will only be done through you Mister! You're not running away that fast...There's no one else who does em' like you AND who the heck wants to hear Ramsey from Aspen? huh? You're my Mister Magic Producer! With the case in the state it is I just don't expect too many reports. But, when we do em'...we'll do em' with you. The Hodges interview and others can be taped at the studio...which will be great and fedexed to you. That's the way I hoped it would be all along! So, I hope you're with me pal...hell, we JUST met...

Posted by Msracoon on 19:16:15 8/13/2000 I am sooo happy for you Mame, for more reasons than the obvious. Leaving the granola curtain... hallelujah!!! Big God blessings to you and your family. This is NOT goodbye, simply a happy wish! I am jumping up and down with joy! God knows this is good news!! Yes, yes, yes. "The steps of a righteous man are ordered by the Lord...". May the Lord station angels and a Holy Spirit wall of fire around you and yours forevermore, and may He use you for His glory. And, THAT is my prayer. Ms.Rac.

Sure, you know I'll always be here to do the JBR broadcasts. Remember, we still have the arrest, trial and conviction broadcasts to do. And these broadcasts WILL be done! Bank on it. TC (Frank) [ REMOVE ] [ ALERT ] [ EDIT ] [ REPLY ] [ REPLY WITH QUOTE ] [ TOP ] [ MAIN ] 20. "Plasket " Posted by mame on 20:35:59 8/13/2000 has named the show, Colorado Inside. Kind of a joke because everyone in Colorado seems to want to talk about being outside. KDNK does broadcast full time on the Internet. www.kdnk.org I'll let you know when the show premieres. We want to get it going soon so we can cover the elections,etc. We're moving up there at the end of this week. Wonder if I'll have a BPD escort ushering me out of town? Thanks for all your kind words. Hey, the only reason I'm taking this job, and not one offered in Chicago on Michigan Avenue as a Web Editor, is that Mel Gibson's kid is going to little Mame's school this year. Her boarding school is in the area...can't miss even one of those parent meetings. Antonio and Melanie are there too...haven't seen them yet! NO, i'm not THAT shallow...but, having a chance to experience little Mame's senior year is a treasure. She's an A student and a true soul mate. Along with my dear mom, Tess. The twins are thrilled at the prospect of snowboarding at Snowmass and skiing at Apsen all winter. Far from the clutches of the Boulder Valley School District! I love you all...even those who've given me a very hard time. That's the only way we have a chance of finding truth. I hope everyone will continue to frequent this living room...we aren't done yet!
