Summer on Campus

It's been a long time since I was in summer school, and now I'm back in it in a manner of speaking. But the weather in our studio is anything but summer-y, quite the opposite actually. Our computers used to hang all the time while playing back commercials or music because of the heat they produced, so the engineering guys here decided to turn our booth into a meat freezer to keep the pc's cool. It's just that I have to wear a jacket just to keep my fingers from falling off and my teeth from chattering. Brrr... I'm not complaining though, coz it beats sweating through boardwork, which I have experienced and is quite unpleasant. I'll go to the beach if I wanna sweat, thank you.

I'm very thankful for the warm reception that most listeners have given the new step the 99.5 frequency in Manila has taken in its long, colorful life.

Speaking of which, I'll devote some space to my own good memories in radio soon.

Police found that explanation fishy after Djordjevic’s driverless car crashed into her neighbor’s house — until they saw it for themselves. They discovered she had bought the car with a remote starter installed, but she didn’t know how to use it. Apparently, if the car was parked in gear and she pushed the wrong button on her key fob, the car would lurch down the road. Even after it had happened several times, once even taking off with her son inside, Djordjevic did nothing about it. “I don’t even know how the stupid thing works,” she says. “It usually does it by accident.” (Northwest Indiana Times) ...“Usually”?
