bland

i am listening to the local radio station to stay updated on the latest weather reports. unfortunately, power 105 = the reason i have consistently listened to cds in my car for the past five years.

if the snow/ice/rain weather parfait doesn't kill me, I WILL.

oh, but it's not talk radio... it's the "same overplayed songs all the kids are listening to every hour" sort of station.

nickelback is really NOT that good, people.

delusional hallucinations?

delusions by proxy?

does npr give road condition updates and closings?

i can't stand 105 *or* npr, actually.

You could check the internet for closings, rather than suffering through terrible radio.

i would, but i haven't been able to find a site!

Mdog, I feel your pain on that one. I have a coworker who listens to that radio station at work--the volume is low enough that I can't complain of the noise, but DEAR GOD I am slowly being driven insane. I secretly plot ways to make her speakers stop working.... anyone have any suggestions? ;-)

But they have a website, as kt suggested:

http://www.wxtq.com/

also, for a road condition overview for Ohio:

i am aware of those sites. but i have yet to find any online source that gives a current road condition status of level one/two/three.

Also www.wbns.com

They actually have the county snow emergenicies listed.

Feb 13, 2007 at 12:55PM | Unregistered Commenterkt

i would correct it but this is funnier.

Feb 13, 2007 at 12:57PM | Registered Commentermdog

Feb 13, 2007 at 01:24PM | Registered Commentermdog

KT, good site. I've bookmarked it.
