Dammitall, if both of the adult contemporary stations aren't in the middle of "Christmas Preview" weekends.
What's the deal with that? PREVIEWS?????? Who's the genius who thought that up?
Idiot 1: "Say, Bob........ I'm betting most people around here would love to hear this stuff we have back in my old market."
Idiot 2: "Really, Tim? What's that?'
Idiot 1: "Christmas music!"
Idiot 2: "I'm.......... not following you. You mean they have special music just for Christmas?"
Idiot 1: "That's right, Bob."
Idiot 2: "WOW!!! Now that's a refreshing concept. But let's make sure people are gonna like it. Let's do a 'preview' weekend....."
Idiot 1: "Capital idea there, Tim!"
Me = pissed x infinity.
Not that I regularly listen to these stations, but if you're scanning the dial, you can't help but come across them. This makes me so glad I keep my MP3 player converter in the car. The next car will have a satellite receiver put in, too.

Christmas "preview"? Or "Let's get the soccer moms (who, no doubt, fawned over Miss South Carolina's intelligence and eloquence) to the mall so they can spend lots of money!"

Which inevitably happens anytime you go into, say, a Dollar General or some other small-ish store. They ALWAYS have those stations playing.
And the ol' Murphy kicks in -- the checkout line is slow, which means you're forced to hear that crap even longer.
I said it before, and here it is again: BAH HUMBUG until 6:00 p.m. on December 24th.
