Throwing Little Thought Pebbles at Your Windshield Since 1996
You’re Geek Chic. Offbeat and with a thumbful of
calluses, you spend most of your time catching
Simpsons reruns and sucking down raspberry
Jell-O. However, you’re still a hipster,
you’ve still got your own style, and you
probably dig the Velvet Underground’s “Who
Loves the Sun?”
What Kind of Hipster Are You?

I’m lying in bed, listening to the wind. I can do that and write to you because of my sidekick, doncha know.
The wind is freaky strong right now…I mean, I’m listening to gusts that far surpass Typhoon Miffy levels. I guess I haven’t been paying enough attention to the weather reports – was this expected? So if it was only 10 degrees out, and you throw in 30mph or so winds, how many minutes can your skin survive before it freezes and shatters into a million pieces?
Not that I’m going to conduct an experiment, I already told you, I’m lying in bed.
I’ll bed the neighbor doesn’t leave yippy and yappy out for very long. She’ll have to find a new way to torture the neighborhood.
Okay, maybe sometimes when I’m listening to the radio I’m only half-listening. But not always. And you learn the voices of the people you hear every day, you know?
So why is it that the traffic reporters use different names on different radio stations? Do we look like morons? The two I’m specifically talking about are the regular morning and afternoon folks over at WXLO. I know Gina’s voice. I hear it every day. You can’t tell me that she’s not “D. B. Cooper” for the traffic reports on that other station. Same for the morning guy. I had it on WEIM (the local AM station) to listen for school cancellations and was shocked to hear the regular morning traffic guy, Eric Heenan, give his name as Joe something or other that I’d never heard before. Why? Just why? Does anyone think that the traffic reporters just work for one station?
