capitalist mafia.

I have a very conflicted relationship with Q101. This morning, Mankow (or however you spell the morning dj's name) made mind-boggling comments about the war in Afghanistan after the plane crash in Queens. He advocated racial profiling, closing the borders, a bombing campaign that's "ten times Hiroshima," and most disturbingly, asked parents of school children to ask their kids if "that little middle-eastern kid in their class was celebrating after the WTC was attacked."
I asked the cafeteria employees to change the station after that. I hope that Mankow loses his job.
But I'll keep listening to Q101 because they also do things like play Green Day's "When I Come Around" directly followed by Remy Zero's "Save Me" directly followed by Weezer's "Hash Pipe."

On a totally different topic, I'd like to revisit Mary and Mark's discussion of poetry vs. prose writing, but I have to go to class right now.
