Chicago Public Radio is running a contest. They provide three elements of a story, you write and record the story, then submit it. I thought it would be interesting to do something similar here, although I want to stress that this is not a contest, just an opportunity to participate in the show.
The three elements are:
a time limit: three minutes
an opening line: “There are two things I can’t stand.”

You may send an audio file, a voicemail, or an email – just make sure to read it out loud first so you know it comes in under three minutes.
The deadline is: Wednesday, May 24, 2006
Participate I was eavesdropping on one side of a cellphone conversation, and I decided it would make a good model for listener participation. I want at least five people to make up one side of a conversation and send it in, via email, voice comment, or voicemail. Then I’d like five more people to volunteer to provide the other half of the conversation. Don’t worry – you don’t need any technical know-how to do this. The deadline is Monday, May 22, but please let me know as soon as possible if you’d like to participate.
Still looking for:
4 people to provide one half of a conversation
3 people to provide the other half of a conversation

Latest Question Brenda of Cast-On asks you to tell us about your best and/or worst educational experiences.
Or, you may answer any question I’ve ever asked, preferably by voicemail or voice comment (though email is okay). The list follows:
Tell us about an embarrassing moment.
What bad habit have you kicked? Feel free to include the hows and/or whys.
Tell us about a job you’ve loved, a job you hated, a job where something strange happened. You could have been babysitting at fifteen, or running a multinational corporation. As long as it was a job, it counts.
