The start of each hour happens later and later due to a) clusters of
ads, and b) them going "over" at the end of each hour. Mostly A.

Too bad we can't have a sports station that provides balance. "The
Sox should trade Manny for Tejada, and Bush lied about WMDs! The
Pats will win 21-13 on Sunday, and global warming is a threat!"
In fact, maybe there is such a station because by day I hear
Air America at 1200 and by night it's Fox Sports. (I know, I
know, it's really the Ottawa sports talker...)

(In fact, it was so warm today it took me 3 hours and 45 min to
go 18 miles this afternoon. Curse that warm winter weather!)

<font color=green>That was funny. I was sitting at a desk and heard the 'da-da da da theme and looked at the clock expecting it to be 5pm. It was 5:20. </font>

It's annoying, but not really shocking considering how much of a cash &!%!$ (rhymes with door) management is
