“I remember moving into my apartment last August … and my only companion was an alarm clock radio.  Lamenting my boredom, I fiddled with the dial, listening to Mr. Radio’s many split personalities vying for my attention.  My friend was truly at his finest – and most sane – when he stopped speaking in tongues, shouting corporate advertisements and replaying the trashy Top 40 tracks that you know he hated anyway, and broke my austere isolation with sexy soca rhythms, funky jams, underplayed alternative artists, and undiluted political discussions.”
