I've always marveled about the stupidity of people. When they're in their cars they hate anything that slows them down (on their race to the next red light) but once they park and get out, that same pavement that moments ago they thought was a speedway becomes a place for meandering in random directions as if cars suddenly don't exist.

I've never listened to talk radio, I thought it just wound people up into a homicidal rage- and most jazz is too slow for me while driving. My ipod is full of old standards. They hit the right mix of tempo, volume and stupid silliness.
