So I’m now in Richmond, which has a GREAT looking modern airport. I should really take a picture of it. *note to self*

As you know, I travel all over the place, exposing me to all walks of life, all different facets of American culture, different kinds of communities. As much as I complain about it, it’s pretty nice, too.

Usually when I travel, I get a rental car. And the first thing I do after adjusting the seat and mirrors is set my radio stations. Most cities have a so-so collection of radio stations.

But Richmond surprised me. It has to have the best selection of radio stations I’ve seen. I actually filled up all 12 presets with stations. There were several AWESOME hip-hop stations, so good I was groovin’ in my seat and ready to hit the town for a night of dancing. And these stations didn’t play the songs that I’ve heard a million times in Chicago. They had stuff I’ve never heard before, but it was GOOD. I would never have guessed that Richmond had such great stations! One station had this hip hop mix that made me actually want to stay in the car after I got to the hotel. There were also a nice selection of alternative and oldies stations, and a really great all-dance station. I really miss the one we had in Chicago. Energy 92.7 or something like that.

So anyway, my hotel was about 25 miles from the airport. I made it in good time, because I wanted to catch the Smallville premiere tonight. I got to the hotel with about half an hour to spare on the show. So I got into my room, turned on the TV, and guess what happened. NO WB in the hotel room!!!! ARGH! So yeah, no Smallville for me. Hopefully Fata or Mel were able to tape it for me.

So I’m here right now, watching the season premiere for Law and Order. Don’t know if I like Dennis Farina as the new cop. No one can beat Jerry Orbach! And Joe Fontana is just a stupid name for a cop.

No offense to any cops named Joe Fontana that are reading this!
