Alex stragnely enough that radio station is owned by one of the large media conglomerates like clearchannel communications. When i was listening to that station and the advertisers I noticed and so did some of my coworkers, that most of their advertising was directed towards the intended audience for that station and some of the larger corporate advertisers like coke, pepsi etc. werent advertising on that station however McDonalds was. I dont think there is anything that could be said to them being that radio stations do what they do because of money, not because of the love of music. If you ever checked out the careers of many of the DJ's out there you would find that most of them have worked in a radio station that played music they couldnt stand, why did they do it? "FOR THE MONEY"
Basically that means there is nothing I as one person could do to change it. I also found out that one of the morning show DJ's there was strangely enough a caucasian person, though he seemed to act and sound more ethnic than the other hosts of his show. can we say Whigger?
PS: I hope that with what I have said on this post and my previous ones on this string, that I havent offended ANYONE. I didnt intend to. I know George personally and find him to be a great gentleman. Again in his stepdaughters case I blame SOCIETY more than anything else, as I do in alot of other cases.

Amen George and Harris.
I think the philosophy I have behind my techniques in teaching dog obedience class have alot of similarities to raising kids - no one method will work for every dog and every handler.
Some basics methods will get basic results, but individuals are individuals. Let the punishment fit the crime, and let the individual determine the punishment needed. Goes the same with praise, too.
Kids that are let loose and not disciplined, never say no, always get their way, are usually gonna end up being spoiled brats expecting everything to be handed to them. Occassionally there will be the individuals that work out ok.
Same thing with the music. Some will be ok, but some will be wrapped up in it too much. I personally think there is way too much violence, and you can see the desensitizing of the youth nowadays. Don't agree with me? Then check out some of the animal abuse done at the hands of kids.
I don't even like watching yucky movies.
Oh... and in music... yep... I got the Clarence thing... just like all the handletterers out there... we be STROKIN!!!
