Happy New YEAR!!!! Back in the studio at WUSB after a cross country journey that started on the shores of the Pacific Ocean where the Torrey Pine grows ... up to the Continental Divide where winter reigns ... and back to beloved Stony Brook.

Today's program has three themes relating to the new year thang .... a discussion with Stan White regarding Marijuana Legalization in Colorado; honoring a few of our favorite musicians that passed over the last year (or so); and my xcountry journey.

Today's album side is from Merle Saunders, a gem from 1973 ... Side A of "Fire Up". Featuring Jerry Garcia, Tom Fogerty, John Kahn (on keyborards), Bill Vitt, and many others. truly a wonderful flashback moment.

My Mom's recipe for Homemade Pizza -- a delicious chicken sausage vegetable medley. She served tis to us the other night after a day skiing ,,, and boy oh boy .. it hit the spot. Hope you too can enjoy it!

Go to the Media Awareness Project's website --- http://mapinc.org --- for Stan White's articles on Marijuana Legalization. Marijuana Policy Project , Rob Kampia. http://cannabisnews.com

Have a Healthy New Year & tune in next week on Friday at 11am for "Lunchtime".
