just go to a radio station's website and listen for FREE. I don't need

what I can/cannot listen to.

Thanks, but no thanks.

Radio big shots is radio big shots.

Every time you buy a Coke or chew Wrigley's gum you are paying to
listen to commercial radio (whether you actually listen or not).

What I do is buy stuff that doesn't advertise heavily, and spend the
difference on making my life more fun.

What you do is buy the same crap everyone else buys, but in addition
you have to pay for your radio listening. That stinks.

It used to be some tv programs had an Automobile Company's brand name of
whichever Automobile (Seeeeeeee the U.S.A.in yourr Chevrolet,Ameica is
better by farrrrrr,,,,,, Dinah Shore) was the sponsor or one of the
sponsors of their tv series programs.The American Automobile Industry
isn't doing so good nowdays.I think some of them should see about
getting some tv series programs to sponsor.I think that would help the
American Automobile Industry and the tv series programs.

The only thing that'll save American manufacturing is single payer

No, I don't. My 5th grade teacher made me read the Hidden Pursuaders.
I have been hip to marketing and motivation since I was a little kid.
Name brand **** is generally inferior. Campbell's Soup, for instance,
tastes like paint thinner if you haven't eaten any for a while.

Anybody who spends $4,000 for an AM radio that gets maybe 20
listenable programs a day has no room to get on someone else's case
for paying $13 a month for 120 channels 24/7.

You've got to remember that the 'tard boy Rickets has had his taste buds
destroyed by excessive drug use.

He knows little about anything, even less about soup.

I went to the Goodwill store this afternoon (as usuall) and for two
dollars,I bought a Fish Cooker that works on LPG gas.Since those two
women next door to me like to grill and cook food outside in their
driveway and since the 37 year old blonde Bell South woman (she is in
Ripley,Mississippi this weekend for a primitive weaponry exibit
thingy,she used to make and sell primitive weapons before she went to
work for Bell South five years ago,that gal is very smart) I gave the
Fish Cooker to them.(the 30 year brunette woman was over there when I
got back from the Goodwill store) I also gave them an electric corn
cooker thingy I bought at the other Goodwill store that usd to be on
Palmyra Street in beautifull down town Jackson.What it is,it has a sort
of a spoke thingy that fits on top of a shaft in the middle (ya gotta
hit it in the middle if ya wantta get a "little") and the cooker heats
up (it has an on/off/temperture control knob on it) and the spoke thingy
slowly rotates around and rotates the corn around for even cooking.
