the media has recently attacked us
'bout the hangover cure made from extract of cactus
Taken hours before drinking, may ward off the curse...
...but only Charles Osgood has reported in verse.

Man, I miss the Osgood file. Used to hear it every day on KCBS while commuting in the SFBA, but it's not on the air in New Zealand.

I've heard Charles Osgood report in verse before, it's great that he does it; seems like a fun loving guy.

Every time I see that, I expect that they're going to tell me that Tequila's not gonna give me a hangover. Cuz Agave is a cactus and stuff. well... maybe the prickly pear margaritas over in the West Village at Agave will hurt less?

ehintz, they post transcripts every day at the site to which I linked [a fact you probably gathered from following it, but which I felt compelled to point out anyway]. They also post transcripts during the weeks Dave Ross fills in ["More after this, from Charlie." "Thanks, Dave. Are you tired of buttery spreads that DON'T contain long-chain Omega-threes...?"]
