Sonic Overload 1/31/11

Another week of snowy weather. And the person who smugly tells me how warm it is where he/she live might come to regret that but I won’t dwell on revenge fantasies either. I do offer some audio of the Congresswoman MSNBC’s Chris Matthews has labeled a “balloon head.” As you listen to Michele Bachmann’s idiotic history “lesson” about slavery, it’ll be tough to resist the urge to smack your forehead while saying “what the FUCK?!” It made me remember the Outpatients’ song with that title that opens the show.
   
No comments on the events in Egypt because I haven’t paid complete attention yet and I’m still reading up on it and catching various news reports. I also resisted the urge to play the Cure’s “Fire In Cairo.” Not because it isn’t appropriate but because I don’t like the song all that much... I’m just being honest!
