December 18, 2001: The last airing of Radio "Internet Life" |
|
A radio program "Internet Life" has been aired until today for past six years from the studio of COARA Co., Ltd. The last wave will be aired tonight. I made homemade cake and dashed to the studio. | |
Ms. Korenaga welcomes me together with a large pod of poinsettia and mini Santa Claus dolls. |
|
The Internet Life occupies even the gallery this time.
The last airing and Christmas have come at the same time, making mess and big noise. |
|
The last performance started.
From left, Mizutani, Kinoshita, Yamasaki, and Ishii. Thank you very much all of you every week so long time. |
|
The theme of the last airing was "Review of the year."
Mr. Ono, always-busy-president of COARA, joins the airing through the Internet from Fukuoka City. Mr. Ono is busy to prepare the connection for it. |
|
Regular guest, from left, Kudou, Takagi, and Satou are happy in the gallery. | |
They reviewed the year as well. I talked about my recent travel to NYC one month after the attack on September 11.
I feel something lonely because I have been a regular guest from the beginning. From left, Satou, Ohshima, Mie, and Akemi. |

Broadcasters are on the floor outside of the studio.
Even during on-air, Inoue, a professional from FM Oita, is caught up by frequent phone bells. |
|
Kadowaki, a staff member of COARA, takes movie. Kinoshita captures the last airing with a digital camera and video. Korenaga dashes to a ringing phone. They are all very busy. | |
The last airing was over before I knew. Inoue thanks to the guests and staff.
A hurricane of applause up roared accidentally from the all people. |
|
The last wave has gone successfully, let's Bottoms up!
Many brought-in cakes, beer, wine, and tea filled the pleasant atmosphere of COARA office and the studio. |
