Well, my radio saved my butt big time today. If I hadn't have heard about it on the CB, I would have run smack into a road closure on the NY Thruway. Luckily I heard about it and rerouted, and when I crossed back over the Thruway on I-84, I saw the northbound side at a dead stop as far as I could see in both directions. I was close enough on my 14 hours to begin with, that closure would have had me shut down on the side of the road. And I don't have a sleeper :wink: Earlier in the day though I had turned the damn thing off. Couple of trash haulers were running down the road having some pointless conversation between themselves about I don't even know what. Sometimes it's fun to eavesdrop, but this one was just mind numbing, and one of them had this droning, drawling, incomprehensible voice that was driving me nuts. Had to turn it off. I just wait a few miles and turn it back on, usually does the trick.

LOL, I like your style, man. I'm all about "Morning Edition." I listen to NPR most of the day actually. That and college radio are pretty much all I need.
