Note: I just realized right now (Jan seventeen, 2008), that I had completely screwed up the numbering of the shows almost immediately after NaPodPoMo ended. I have fixed this now in the blog, but, have no idea what number I stated belonged to what show in the actual podcasts. Oops!

This is why I don’t run cash registers. ;)
