[I thought so.]

1. Good post.

Their server always overloads. Put up with the bad music to reserve your space.

[Bozita]

2. Can you find ANY reason for this mix of music?

Sounds like random picks from a 200gb IPod.

[I thought so.]

3. Its just college radio.

They think its cool.

[Bozita]

4. "If I knew you were coming, I'd have baked a cake" and THIS?

unbelievable!

[I thought so.]

5. I know you like KGO.

I have a link that bypasses their site.

http://www.radio-locator.com just search for any station. If they have an internet feed it will be there. Lots of other good stuff too.

6. Hey, that's a great site!

Thanks.

Now one of my bookmarks.

[I thought so.]

8. You are so welcome my friend.

Pass it on. And lets give credit to Al Gore. He invented the internet. Don't you just love it. Its the irony and...well you know.

10. Jim Moore on NOW talking about Judith Miller (NYT)

[Bozita]

11. Ashleigh Banfield said basically the same stuff about the war coverage...

...in a speech at Kansas State University and lost her MSNBC anchor position. Her assignments dwindled to zero.

She's unemployed now.

[Robbien]

12. This was a great interview

It is a wonder that Judith Miller is still around and is still being used as a news source on cable news. Wish he would have explained why that is.
