The Best Laid Plans

In my recent slackings I’ve learned something. People get pissed when you go more than a few days without updating your blog. In my case, they make snide comments, write pithy emails and make me ashamed of myself for having to result to using the word “pithy” in a public manner.

The usual lame excuses of having too much work at the office, too much work at home and too much pretty much anything else to just not be posting a blog entry simply fall on soulless, uncaring ears.

But the truth is, I have been slacking and I know it. Sure, I could have taken a few minutes here and there to pound out some crap about text-happy gay congressmen taking naked saunas with their childhood priests. Or Connie Chung’s sake-swilling Billy Carter-like brother busting off nukes on the Korean peninsula like it’s the freaking Tet New Year or something. But haven’t we all had enough of that?

I mean, if you’re going to come here by taking time out of your busy schedule of watching that item on eBay, playing suduku and unsuccessfully scrolling through your iTunes in search of something fresh, the least I can do is promise to put forth a little more effort. Right?

Well, wrong, actually. But I guess I will try to do better.

Sirius Radio for Serious Listeners

Sirius Satellite Radio is perfect for people who have longed to have radio in their cars. Not just radio. Sirius radio. Look at all of the benefits:

Variety
Perfect for those long road trips. Instead of being stuck listening to the same three CDs for four hours, the time will fly by as you spend the entire trip scanning the more than 100 stations, trying to find something you can commit to.

Convenience
Don’t have your radio signal beamed to your car from a dated, ground-based antenna. Have it sent from a space-age satellite in low Earth orbit. That makes all the difference.

Discovery
Thanks to the LED display panel, when you’re hitting 80 mph on the Interstate and you hear a song you like, you’ll actually see the name of the song, artist and CD. If it’s something you might want to eventually buy, simply locate a pen, a scrap pf paper and a relatively flat surface, and jot the information down before the song is over.

Exposure
Tune in to shows from far away places like New York, Los Angeles and Chicago. Listen in on local hosts taking calls from local residents about local issues that are having a direct impact on their local communities.

Affordability
Who would have thought? Music, talk, interviews, commentary…right at your fingertips, right from your radio! Starting at only $12.95 per month!
