Re: SHUT THE CELL UP !


Radios are not a distraction for most people. Generally most of us
don't flip around from station to station while driving. I had a friend
that used to do it though- he'd flip from station to station everytime
the song changed or a commercial came on. Drove me friggn nuts to ride
with him.

Actually, that's more common than you think. I agree, it drives me
insane as well. As long as I can hear something [respectable] instead
of the hypnotizing sounds of the car in motion, it's fine.

Dumb commercials tend to irritate the heck out of me, especially after
I've heard it for the 50th time. So I tend to push a preset channel
button about one second after a commercial I recognize comes on.

Or join XM/Sirus and leave all the commercials behind. PBS has
"commercials".....or as they call it "sponsors". Seems everytime I
try to watch a PBS show on TV, they are having one of their endless
pledge drives........

True, although I believe that some of the DJs (?) on Sirius enjoy the sound
of their own voices a bit much .
