You know, madam, when it comes to getting news from an audiological source, I get most of mine from National Public Radio.

Since "listening" demands a strenuous physical effort on my part--like running the four-minute mile or doing 500 push-ups in half an hour--I don't care to do it very often, and when I do do it, I just want the straight information, no commercials, no music, no nothing but straight information.

Several times, I have caught the tail-end of these "Prairie Home Companion" shows, and to be blunt, that show--at least the tail-end of it--is just plain stupid; no redeeming social, cultural, or intellectual value in it.

I hate it when I waste energy like that.
