Only in college XXIII

One of my air breaks on KCOU, 11/4/92:

"...It's 3:46.  My name is Drew, and I will be with you until 6:00...Unfortunately, I can't take any of your requests...because the phone has been ripped out of the wall.  We do have a fax machine, but that would be sort of going to extremes, I think, at 3:46 in the a.m. here..."

To this day, I don't know why the studio phone was missing that morning.  At a noncommercial, freeform college station, though, you reach a point where you don't question such things.
