Air America Thanks to my friend Cynthia, I am completely hooked on Air America. Since I live in "not-so-liberal" San Diego, the radio hasn't made it to my hometown just yet, so the only way I can listen to it is over the net. The biggest downside of this is that if I miss a show in realtime, I miss it. For example, this morning, Jon Stewart was on the O'Franken Factor and by the time I tuned in, I'd already missed the first hour and I missed it again tonight when it was recast. If it were on the radio, I could have recorded it and listened to it later, when I wasn't busy. Other than that, I've had no problem listening to it while working; it doesn't distract me one bit. Most of the programs are interesting, provocative, funny and informative. However, there were several instances during the Randi Rhodes Show that I thought she was being obnoxious and I didn't appreciate that she hung up on several people while they were still talking. Just because there are ranting people on the other side doesn't mean we have to rant as well. I feel like it's important to stay dignified, especially in the presence of rudeness. Leaving for New York tomorrow! (where I can listen to Air America on the actual radio) I have mixed emotions. Part of me hopes that I realize I don't miss it as much as I do. We'll see...
