Mad Hatter rumblings...

Sigh, hey all been a while again, why is this time of year so hard to maintain contact with folks and just "normal conduct of life"?

Rhetorical questions fill my head, I should get more sleep...

Why does the phone always ring when you're in the bathtub? - Priceless all time movie quote
Why red & green for Xmas colors? Was the blue lobby out manuevered on this one?
Are you lonesome tonight? [Think Elvis baby Elvis]

I now own a Sirius Satellite Radio. My siblings got it for me for my birthday. Its taken me a while to a) find a FM station that my car will pick up the receiver with. These things were not meant for the East Coast with Radio Stations aplenty! B) Once that was found, its been tough to pick which Sirius station I like the most, or most want to listen too. I mean after all, I have a CD player in the car for a reason! So that if I want to vege to the Blue Man Group on the way home...pop the disc in, and pow... Blue Man Music! If someone cuts me off in traffic, I pop out Blue Man, I switch to angry Rammstein! German angry death metal! Errrrrr!!!! Trust me its great! But, now I have this Sirius radio, and now I can get like all 80s British pop on the First Wave channel, or the speed metal on Octane channel. But for every "oooh, I haven't heard this in forever" or " i wish i had THIS song on CD" theres five songs of bleh!

Then I surfed some more and discovered a channel I hadnt caught yet... Super Shuffle! Yup, Sirius has like 100+ music channels covering every mode/style/dance/pop/classical/Elvis/etc etc, you could want. And on SUPER SHUFFLE the name says it all. You could have A Flock of Seagulls, followed by Nat King Cole, then Aretha Franklin, then Beethoven's Fifth. Very cool, now if I only had some way to record off of this device... any help?

Til next time
