Rocking It Old School

My car is cursed with an AM/FM Radio / CD player.  Way back in the day circa 2003, a CD player in your car was enough to stick your nose up at people with “just” a tape deck.  8 years later, I never use CD’s and would kick a kangaroo to have a tape deck just for the ability to have an iPod adapter.  ”Why don’t you use one of those radio adapter things?” Good question metaphorical voice in my head!  I don’t have a working cigarette lighter and I have never met one of those adapter things that a worth a damn.  Ergo, I am resigned to either CD’s or radio and seriously, who still uses CD’s?

Which brings me to the main point, have you listened to your oldies radio station lately?  It is all I listen to anymore!  Oldies 95.7 in Seattle plays “hits from the 60’s and 70’s” (basically, my wheelhouse) which essentially means that they never play bad music.  It is incredible.  Leslie makes fun of me for it, but she also says it’s “cute” so clearly she loves the station too.

They may play a bit too much James Taylor for my taste, but the flip side is that I like Billy Joel a lot more than I realized.
