My First Radio Appearance

Well, I've officially been welcomed to Los Angeles. My car was broken into and my radio and CD's were stolen. It's ironic I think, that I get my radio stolen on the same day that I made my first radio appearance.

The stupid theifs even left the butter knife that they used to pry out the radio in my car. My mom was like you should have the police dust it for prints. I'm like yeah, I could if I was in Alabama. I don't think it will be a very high priority in LA where they have thousands of unsolved murders that they are either trying to solve or cover up. I don't think a little car stereo will get much attention. Plus I've seen how LAPD have handled other cases like OJ and Robert Blake. I think I'd have a better chance of getting my case solved by Nancy Drew. With my luck they'll mishandle it and I'll end up going to jail for Nicole Simpson's murder.

So that really sucked getting my car messed up. I don't mind losing the stereo because it wasn't too expensive and could be easily replaced. I'm pissed that they messed up my middle console on my car. Hopefully I can fix it myself since I don't have money to fix it. I had parked it across the street down the street in front of the ghetto Mexican apartments. So that is my fault. I should be more racist and stay away from ghetto Mexicans. Now I know.

The radio show went great. It was on XM Satellite radio on XM 169 "The Power" on a show called "TMI" (Too Much Information) with Alvin Jones. It went great. I did 12 minutes of material and then interviewed with him. Overall, I was on for 45 minutes. I had a great time. Alvin Jones is a great host and we really clicked. I was a little nervous at first, being that it was my first time. But eventually I got comfortable. It was a surreal experience performing through a phone and then trying not to be self-conscience (sp?) about your voice, because who knows how many people all over the United States was listening. Hopefully I did well and got some good publicity out of it. Nobody I know has XM radio yet, so nobody was able to listen and tell me how I did, but I will be getting a copy from Alvin, so I'll let you guys know how it sounds when I hear it. But it was a great experience and I'm glad I did it. Now I must go fix my car :(
