Pharn it!

My radio was hijacked today. Not stolen, mind you, but I have XM Satellite Radio in my car. I find today that many of the channels have either changed position or name or format or all 3. It's because XM merged with Sirius Satellite Radio and they've finally combined their lineups. Sirius has some good stuff, but they also have the annoying habit of calling their channels things like "Siriusly Sinatra" (and I checked, it's spelled like that too). Maybe I'm oversensitive, but I live in a place where people are absolutely insistent on spelling anything that starts with an F with a Ph and it drives me up a wall. It's the one and only thing that makes me happy about the end of the baseball season is that I no longer have to hear about having the Phillies Phestival at the ballpark.

On the other hand, you may know that my convention in this blog is to use the traditional #*%! to represent swear words, but if I didn't I would definitely use a 5 letter variant of one of the more popular phour letter words.
