I succumbed...

I've purchased a subscription to XM radio.

For less than 10 dollars a month, I'm listening to Al Franken and Jon Stewart right now, while I type this and work (yeah, right) and earlier today I listened to C-Span and Brian Lamb interview Tim Russert, and if I want I can switch to BBC World News, or listen to the WW2 veterans talking about their experience at their Memorial Dedication in DC, or maybe tune into Nascar.

So far, I really, really like it and I can't think of a better way to spend 10 bucks! Well, maybe a nice bottle of Merlot....
