The Ramones were popular w/ students, and many college stations had their music in regular rotation. I used to hang out at KUNV, the radio station on the UNLV campus, and I would help w/ music programming. The Ramones playing this benefit concert for KUNV was one of the best shows I‘ve ever seen.

I've worked w/ Mojave desert tortoises since 1990 when they were given federal protection and listed federally as a Threatened species. I'm a USFWS Authorized Biologist, meaning I'm permitted by USFWS to handle them and train other biologists how to handle them so that they can become an A.B. too. 🌎
