A VERY SPECIAL PROGRAM...

...in that, as fill-in host for this week's "Short Attention Span Radio," I opted to take the show's name literally; there are no songs that exceed three minutes below. (Well, okay, #12 and 23 [ooooh] pass that mark by a few seconds each, but that's only because I was actually fulfilling listener requests. Listener requests other than "get the fuck off the air, you stuttering mugwump," even.)
