"Super" theme

Last night on "A Mixed Bag with Chris B" on 93.7 Edge FM in the Bega Valley, our theme was "Super".

Our play list included songs from Supertramp and Supernaught as well as songs with the word "Super" in the title (Sunshine Superman by Donovan, Oh Superman by Laurie Anderson, Super Trouper by Abba, Super Bad by the one and only James Brown, Supersonic Rocket Ship by the Kinks, Super Woman by Alicia Keys and more.

Bob McDonald is the president of the local Parkinson's support group in the Bega Valley.  It was great to catch up with Bob once again, and hear about a very successful Parkinson's Education Seminar recently held at the Bega Valley Commemorative Civic Centre.

In my opinion Bob is a super human, having been living with Parkinson's for 23 years, still playing golf, and providing valuable support for local people.
