Within the first third of the 8.5 hour trip, the iPod and both of our computers ran out of batteries, so we were forced to listen to the radio. Let me tell you, this was excruciatingly painful. The radio stations down here suck. Also, they are blatantly homophobic.
One radio station was talking about how children in schools should be protected from gay-straight alliance sorts of clubs since their sexuality is not 'solidified' until they are 17 or 18 years old. My own personal experience with 'straight' women over the age of 18 has shown me that sexuality doesn't solidify - but what do I know. I'm just a confused, greedy bisexual. One of the main tenets of Mount Holyoke College is 'sexuality is fluid', so I just pictured swarms of angry MoHos swooping down and making these DJ's daughters question their sexuality. And answer it, in many, many ways.
Oh, and then there was "Homo the Aids-Infested Shark." Because there's no better way to kick off Shark Week than gay-bashing. They did an interview, and 'Homo' responded in a high-pitched lispy voice, saying that Myrtle Beach was not for him, and the Jersey Shore was where he would feel more at home, so he could "bite The Situation's dick off... yum!" The DJ then responded that Homo had threatened to bite his rectum off ... and then call him cute. Classy, boys.
On a happy note, off to Birmingham, Alabama, to go visit the lovely Margot Wade!
