Help a fellow American down on his luck charity drive

Much like my post.

The transmitters are terrible where I am because I'm on the edge of two separate metropolitan regions. Virtually all of the tuning slots are taken by commercial radio.

But -- still amusing now and again. I was cruising down Interstate 97 with a buddy when our station dropped out, replaced by lesbian porn from the chick in the Nissan Xterra driving past us. My buddy shouted "follow that car!" and we did, along with three or four other vehicles. I spent most of the time avoiding accidents while everybody jockeyed for the best position. Eventually the woman in the Xterra (pissed off at the knot of traffic) figured out why we were all pressing up against her and turned it off. Everybody honked and waved to say thanks.

I have a 2007 Sedona that plays mp3 disks and cassettes, but no external input that I can plug my Kindle into. So I may be grabbing one of these soon.

Good grief, listening to porn while driving? That's just sad. The real low has to be seeing a bunch of dudes leering at you from their respective cars and realizing they know what you're listening to.

Kind of similar story; when I was a bike messenger the Opie and Anthony radio show had chartered a completely transparent bus and filled it with naked women dancing, showering, and making out. I think they were broadcasting from it. They drove that sucker up and down Manhattan for a while, collecting quite an entourage of hangers on before the NYPD shut them down and arrested everyone on the bus. I rode next to it for a few blocks while it was going my way down Broadway, and a few of the girls were really hamming it up for my benefit. Pretty funny, but I bet it was a rough couple of days for them in the tombs.

My cassette adapter in a 1990 (yes my car reached drinking last year) Mazda is completely stuck in the cassette player it won't play and it won't come out. I just can't see spending a lot of money on putting a high end MP3 or CD player in a 22 year old car so I'm stuck with a lot crappy FM static.

That car is now a "classic". Spend $100 and put a damn CD player in the dash.

Here are some cheap cassette adapter options, including a bluetooth adapter and one that takes sd cards with mp3s on them: s.dealextreme.com/search/cassette+adapter

^^ This. Or even better, hit a couple car shows and see if you can pick up a new tape deck, they usually have a swap meet just off of the show.

After Thirstyman absconded with the $1.13 we had raised to get Mr. Barnes his much needed cassette adapter, our efforts began to flounder. Andy apparently believed his need for cheap booze and loose women outweighed Mike's need for music. Who's to say he was wrong.

However, the need still exists. I have included a picture of Mike's newest ride so that your feelings of pity might be aroused. Don't let the high quality wood paneling fool you. This is a man in need of help.
