What is there to discuss?

[endangered species]

There really is not much to discuss about local radio. Except for 63 WPRO, most of the stations in the market are mediocre at best. It is bland, unimaginative and BORING!!!! (63 once again demonstrated that live radio is entertaining as well as an important public service on the day of the storm.) I Heart's stations are voice-tracked most of the time, even HJY. Since when is the Bangles' "We've Got the Beat" a classic hit. PRO FM and LITE 105 are tracked at night. (If John Tesh is supposed to be intelligent, be thankful if you are an idiot.) The next inductee into the Rhode Island Radio Hall of Fame will be a computer.

Hate to point this out, but the song is 35 years old. If you graduated high school that year, you're very close to aging out of the demo. The song is an anthem for most women of that era.

Hate to point this out to the both of you, but "We've Got the Beat" isn't a Bangles song at all. Kind of surprised that fact floated under your radar, Big A. You usually pick up on gaffes such as that rather quickly.

I'm trying to be nice.

Don't go too far out of your way there, A. Some of us appreciate the unapologetic, straight to the point approach used in your penmanship.
