Day 228: Radios

Hello again,
This post is for yesterday. Today I am thankful for radios. One reason I love radio is that sometimes you hear a song that you absolutely love and you can go buy the cd knowing it is good. I don't like to buy music that I don't know what it sounds like because if I don't like it then I have wasted my money. Another reason that I love radio is that I can hear a variety of music that I don't own because I could never afford a music library as extensive as a radio station's library. On some stations there are programs like Focus on the Family that I love to listen to as well. Yet another reason I have loved the radio in the past (and still do to a point) was being able to keep up to date with news because they have news every 1/2hr. The reason I don't so much anymore is twitter keeps me more up to date on news and weather now. Anyways this is why I am thankful for radio.

A lady bought a new $100,000 Mercedes and proudly drove it off the showroom floor to take home. Halfway home, she attempted to change radio stations and saw that there appeared to be only one station. She immediately turned around and headed back to the dealer.

Once at the dealer, she found her salesman and began to excitedly explain that her radio was not working, and they must replace it since she only had one radio station. The salesman calmed her down and told her that her car radio was voice-activated, and that she would only need to state aloud the type of music that she wanted and the car would find it.

She got into the car and started the engine and then said the word "country," and the radio changed to a station playing a George Strait song. She was satisfied and started home. After a while she decided to try out the radio and said "rock 'n' roll;" the radio station changed and a song by the Rolling Stones came from the speakers. Quite pleased, the woman continued driving.

A few blocks from her house, another driver ran a light causing her to slam on her brakes to avoid a collision. The woman angrily exclaimed, "Idiot!"

...The radio cut over to George Bush's press conference
