1. I really miss the "Twelve Guys Out" commercials --
the dating service for gay men new to New York City. Did AAR stop playing those because they were afraid that they would offend some of the people who stream the show?

Anyway - at least there is a little bit of variety in the AAR commercials these days - car insurance, Bullfrog sunblocker, Vermont Bits & Blades (though I could definitely live without the 'semper fi').

3. Wendy Freezin? freisen?
Commercial radio is so hard to listen to these days, what with all these horrible spots, trying to catch your attention, even if it's bad attention.

But, yeah I agree that her commercials are abrasive as hell.

5. Horses...
...New Jersey has plenty of horses. I'm sure upstate NY and Conn. have their share also.

8. HAH!
I thought it was just New York!

But seriously, how much could that possibly pay off?

What % of Air America radio listeners are horse owners AND administer their health?

.00001%?

11. Tons of horse owners around here. There are 4 horses on the ranch but
they belong to foreman and wife who are major freepers. We can't get AAR out there anyway.
