On Tuesday Sesame Street turns 40! For Radio Free Lunch we’ll dedicate songs to our favorite characters. We came up with a few around the office–”Cookie Jar” by Jack Johnson for Cookie Monster (thx E), anything by Garbage for Oscar The Grouch and “You’re My Best Friend” by Queen for Bert and Ernie. Believe it or not Margot is the most excited for this subject, she knows every character!! Happy Birthday Sesame Street!!
Wanna take over Radio Free Lunch this Friday? We’re doing a tie in with the new movie “Pirate Radio” and I want you to co-host Radio Free Lunch! Submit your theme idea here with 5 songs that would support it. The winner will come in THIS Friday for the lunch hour!!
Just a reminder that we’ll be changing out the header here every week courtesy of the students at Georgia Tech. This weeks header is from John Zelek. Love the look!
The Westbrook Look for November 9, 2009.
Nicole never wears the same thing twice, so we have decided to dedicate a blog post to her each day. Keep checking back during the week as we post Nicole’s daily outfit.

Monday is the 20th anniversary of the falling of the Berlin Wall. To commemorate this event we’ll play “wall” songs/bands for Radio Free Lunch. I’ll also accept anything to do with “falling down” or just being united in general.

Wonderwall, Oasis
Sledgehammer, Peter Gabriel
And The Walls Came Down, The Call
Fall On Me, REM
The Difference, The Wallflowers

Right Here Right Now, Jesus Jones

Saturday night I somehow got invited to an event at a million dollar mansion in Buckhead. Word is that it may be owned by someone associated with the singer of the smash hit (whatever) “Tardy For The Party”. Anyway, the champagne was flowing and my pals Amy and Ollie were drinking it up. Bow Wow performed and Jermaine Dupri was spinning. I’m embarrassed to admit to dancing (and falling) in an awkward way. Hey, I was trying to look hip (not so much).
Frank Ski from V103 and Keith Sweat were in the house. Keith used to be married to Lisa Wu Hartwell from Real Housewives of Atlanta. He’s also a pretty famous R&B singer (duh).
This was one of the killer auction items that I was tempted to buy. The proceeds from the party went Jaden’s Ladder. Former Atlanta Braves (now Texas Rangers) player Andrew Jones and his wife Nicole are grand ambassadors.

Yes, I know it’s obvious. You don’t even need to say it

Girls night out, Ollie and Amy
Marsha Middleton, Angela Karatassos and Corrina Allen
Everyone was dancing up a storm and it was still going when we left around 1Am.

Thanks so much to my friend Jamie who invited us. It was so much fun and I’m paying for it today. Ow.
I was talking about this on my show today and here’s a cool article about Monsters Of Folk coming to the Tabernacle next week (11/11). It should be a great show, the album is fantastic. If I’m not there I’ll be home watching V on ABC on the DVR. It’s a fun fill in until Lost comes on.
Completely unrelated—ever since I got back from Paris, I’ve been hooked on these two websites. First, David Lebovitz’s blog about Paris and stuff. He’s an author and pastry chef and who posts fabulous finds in Paris. Through his site I was turned on to The Satorialist. He’s a photographer who takes amazing pictures of people on the street all over the world. It’s updated often so it’s so much fun to see what people are wearing in Paris, Milan, London, etc. No Atlanta shots as of yet, but I’ll keep checking back
Have a good weekend!!!
But still glamourous! Love the boots girl. Keep checking back during the week as we post Nicole’s daily outfit. She never, ever wears the same thing twice!!
