True, true.

And I wish I could forget my internship at Kiss108 back in winter 
'96.  That was when Alanis Morrissette's "Jagged Little Pill" was huge and 
we were "Kiss108 - At least **TWO** Alanis songs EVERY hour"  (well, that 
was my slogan for it :-)    Actually to be honest, although I disliked the 
music I loved the internship...I learned a lot about radio there.
