11 Oct 2013: it's... 1980
« on: October 11, 2013, 09:45:17 AM »
Renee's clue this AM was "the year the modem was invented" -- depending on who you believe, that's either 1977 (which we did the other day) or 1955 (not gonna happen). So I'm guessing that was the wrong promo.

ETA: 1980 -- which we did 2 weeks ago. Whatevs.  PLEASE no repeats, RR.

I wonder if that's the reason I hate it so much.  Not because of the A's connection per se, but because songs tied to sports generally get ruined for me when they play it incessantly.  As a Raider fan, I never ever need to Hells Bells again.

On the other hand, "You Shook Me All Night Long" is just dandy.  BOS2.
