I had a meeting get cancelled, so I decided to check out the new “all sports” format on WJFK using internet streaming radio. Of course, before I could listen to Mike Wise talk about DNA testing Dominican players to make sure they are not lying about their age, I was subjected to this advertisment, which I don’t think resonates with the demographic that WJFK is aiming for…

P.S., I will miss The Mike O’Meara Show. 
Poor David. He gets filmed by his Dad after getting pummeled with anesthetic, and becomes a 23 million hit wonder on YouTube, only to be parodied to hilarious effect by everyone from Darth Vader to depressed Cowboys fans!

P.S., David’s Dad (or family) has a blog where they are putting his “internet celebrity” to good use and helping raise funds for charities to help children get dental care they might not be able to afford.
The Twitpocalypse has already claimed my favorite Twitter client for the iPhone, but apparently Twitter had a brief outage right when I wanted to post about ordering up my new laptop…

I was surprised to see they had quietly added a feature to peruse traffic scenarios based on historical traffic data, so that if you’re wondering if traffic sucks even worse at 5:30pm than it does at 4:45pm on Tuesdays, you can find the answer really easily.

It defaults to “Live” traffic. Click on “Change”…
Now you can set up the date and time for the historical traffic data you’d like to view. Here’s 4:45pm on Tuesdays on the Washington, D.C. Beltway.
And here’s 5:30pm on Tuesdays on the Washington, D.C. Beltway.
