I went to a favorite café in the Mission to work on my book. It's a nice place which I have recommended in the past, but today they were playing this really awful easy listening shit. Finally I heard an announcer say it was XM Radio -- some particular channel. The next time I went up to the counter I said "So, you have XM Radio."
"Yeah."
"Two hundred channels," I said. "And you're playing this?"
The man looked pained. Finally he said, "Well, you know, it's whatever you feel like." I shrugged and went back to my chair. The awful music went on. Finally when Neil Diamond came on singing "Turn On Your Heart Light," it was too much even for the staff, and they changed the channel to some salsa.
