Crazy Airwaves

Something is up with the air over Wisconsin. Twice this past winter, Nick and I were able to pick up the Sunday night NFL broadcast out of Denver (the Broncos were playing each time). Literally out of Denver, there were commercials for local businesses, like John Elway car dealerships. This Sunday as we drove back we somehow got an Ohio radio station. We were listening to "Lucky Man" and one of the lines is customized to the local market. So, here in Minnesota it goes "last Sunday when my Vikings lost..." and in Wisconsin it should be "Packers". Well, this radio station had it customized to "Bengals"!!! Either someone was confused or the wind was blowing in the opposite direction. :)

Did one of you two get a metal plate in your head? I hear that gets great reception.

In the movies and TV the weird interference just means you're about to get abducted by aliens. I'd be careful if I were you.

Oooo...aliens. I like that. They abduct you and put a metal plate in your head. Then they can always find you and makes for easier, later abduction. They just run a big magnet over the Earth to snatch you up. And hence, global warming. Hmmm...it all comes together.

I have metal screws in my jaw, does that count for anything?

Hmmm....metal screws in jaw....maybe you were supposed to be the bride of Frankenstein. Better tell Nick to watch his back. But I can see it being a more efficant way for the aliens to keep track of you. That one is a toss up. But it defiantly might be why you have great reception.
