An aborted show topic and Reader Mail!

If you caught this past Saturday’s (8/22) show, you know that I started to tell a story about my friends and I getting locked in the mall after hours. Unfortunately the show ended before I could finish the story, which I had planned to turn into a topic had breaking news not crashed through the ceiling of our studio like baby Superman. However, after the show I got an e-mail about the mall story from listener Charles, who wrote: “Hey, I need closure on this thing. Can you post something on your web site?” And what am I gonna do? Say no to Charles? Well, yes, kinda.
You see, Charles made me wish that not only could I finish the story, but still throw the topic out there. So instead of posting the story here, I’ve taken the story and posted it on Mascot Wedding’s Facebook page. If we can get a topic thread started, that would be awesome. If not, well, at least you got a free boring story out of it.
