the Tom Ridge center is such crap. we should have kept the drive-in. there's a drive-in in Corry but it's Corry. nobody goes there!
ReplyDeleteWho decided that Philadelphia is authority on what top-40 listeners want to hear? Maybe we're just not the "true" top-40 addicts who drive what Star 104 plays. Just a thought! :-)
ReplyDeletePhiladelphia is so not the authority; I concur. This was but a mere observation (kind of brushed with unnecessary, geographically classist tones, I admit). And yes, we, alas, are not true top-40 addicts but rather Warvel and Curry critics listening occassionally and scoffing frequently (and sometimes catching ourselves rocking to the sweet rhythyms of HALO without even realizing it, and then proceeding to hastily turn the volume back down).
