Just finished listening to John Grisham's "The Broker" on Chapter A Day a
couple weeks ago. Pretty entertaining. Sometimes I get sick of hour after hour of classic rock while I'm checking fields. Whaddya Know is always fun, I get it on Saturday mornings while doing a more extensive field tour. Then Car Talk comes on. Some of their guests drive me crazy though. Some real whacko's. A guy the other day wanted the maximum tax rate to be 90% with a maximum gross earnings of 10 times the poverty level, anything earned above that would be taxed at 100%. The host asked him why he'd give all that money to the government when they always seem use it so inefficiently. The guest goes into a 15 minute tirate about Bill Gates and how everthing he did was with government money and that the taxpayers that paid for all his research should be entitled to get their "investment" back from him. Ok. On the other side of the spectrum, some guy called in wanting to close the borders and shoot anybody that tried crossing. Dunno, but maybe he was East German. That's when I re-discover all the other buttons on the radio. What's weird is WPR is pretty liberal and Wis. Public Television is pretty conservative. Balance maybe? Jim |
