XM Radio
If you have never heard XM radio, you really need to. 150 digital channels of music, talk, sports - you name it. You can get a Delphi unit at Best Buy for about $95, and then pay the XM subscription of $9 a month. The Delphi unit is totally portable. It takes about 5 minutes to put it in any car with no cutting, etc.
The afternoon of 2/25 the 60's channel on XM recreated WDGY, jingles, newscasts, music - the whole bit. If you're old enough to remember Minnesota top 40 AM radio, you'll remember 50,000 watt WeedJee. It was at 1130 (now KFAN), and was a legendary radio station. Listening to the jingles ( WONDER - FUL, DOUBLE YOU DEE GEE WHYYYYYYY) ( IT'S WEEDGEE - TWIN CITIES - ON ELEVEN THREE OH, WEEDGEE ON YOUR RADIO......DOUBLE YOU DEE GEE WHY, MINNEAPOLIS ) brings me back to riding with my Aunt Linda (8 years older than me) in her convertible - going down Hwy 7 making a Kentucky Fried Chicken run to Lake Calhoun. Man, I'm really beginning to sound like an old fart -
