It was the personal satisfaction of being able to vent in that way that made it worth doing if the person on the other end was being an a$$hole.

I wrote that in my first reply about them, and then thought maybe I was weird for doing that, so I went for the other use for them.

I remember listening to some mystery shows on the radio while dad was driving
his 1949 Ford home from somewhere in the valley. It was dark, which seemed
to amplify the clever sound effects of the detective mystery. Squeaky brakes,
slamming doors, etc. Really great for anyone’s imagination. I was about 6
years old at the time.

For me it was on Sunday nights at 9:00 on KUPD. I was looking for the station identifier more apropos for the time, but no dice. Just ignore the corporate sponsorship…
