I use to pull all nighters with regularity back in the day. My first was in high school for a lock in, and then many during college. Once I put away my irresponsible days, I put away all nighters as well.....NOT.
For several reasons, I have done all nighters from the time I graduated from College, to but a handful of years ago (the former being BC - before personal Computers - the latter being APP - After Prom Parties). But in all cases, either due to lack of access or the fact I had to work, I never listened to talk radio during those all nighters.
March 11 was my baptism in talk radio after 1200am! Did I do an all nighter? Not really. I went to bed about 10, and had my son (14 - teenager - he does not go to bed until 3am!) get me up at 2am. WHY?
Because of the stupid clowns in the District of Columbia! (rant off).
Yes, not content to worry about computers changing times during the day on Sunday (since the place was CLOSED Asshats! - sorry, could not help myself), I was forced to get up at that time and make sure all the servers had changed times.
And so while doing the mindless task of checking time on 100 servers, I was listening to streaming radio. Coast to Coast. I had heard about that show, but never caught it. And it was a real eye opener! The subject that night was - spying! And the moon was full and so were the loons! These people were outrageous! I cannot say funny as they were dead serious! Everyone was out to get them, and they were marked people! (I guess I was lucky the subject was not alien abduction).
We are not talking drunk callers, these were very lucid and clear - and equally as kooky! One said he witnessed the death of Karen Silkwood, so he knew he was a marked man! (even though she was reported to die in OK, he stated adamantly that it was in NY State!).
Listening to these 'people' (and I use that term lightly), I was struck by the similarity of the statements made by Michael, Moore, Joy Behar, keith Olberman, and Rosie Odonnel. Before that night, I just could not comprehend how they could be so kooky!
Now I know why. They were abducted by aliens.
Lots of kooks out there! I am more worried about being accosted by one of them than being beamed up by ET.
