But, there are things I've thought about posting that I never got around to actually talking about. Let's see if I can remember. * * * * There's a radio station in Austin called BobFM. Aside from the fact that it insults our intelligence by insisting that some guy named Bob bought the radio station (a perfectly good Oldies station, I might add) in order to “Play Anything”, I find that I really do like this station. They don't quite “play anything”, but they do come close. Anyway, the other day I was listening to the radio while driving home from dropping off at work. I can't help but get a kick out of a station that goes from Liz Phair (Why Can't I), to Kansas (Dust in the Wind), to the BeeGees (Stayin' Alive), to Twisted Sister (We're Not Gonna Take It).
