I am somebody?

from JoeUser Forums

For a second year in a row, I have the ultimate power over what you are going to hear on the radio!  There is nothing you puny mortals can do, as I wield all the power!  Mwuhahahahaha (Hack-coff-hack).

Sorry, the power got to me for a second.

But yes, for the second year in a row, I am an Arbitron kid!  I get to fill out the survey for a week, and for keeping track of all I listen to I get a whopping $3!!!!!

I guess I will do it just so I can plug my favorite shows.  But it really is tedious and a bore.  i guess the first time we get asked to "be in a poll", it is kind of an honor, right?  I mean we read polls all the time, but we sure did not voice our opinion!

Well, this is the same thing, although instead of questions about Bush or Kerry (Or Clinton or Kennedy), we are asked about WRVQ and WRVA and Mix1037 and light98.

So yea, it is kind of important.  Especially if you listen to the radio (I stream).  You can keep your favorite shows on the air for another anemic year, or not.

But seriously, if anyone else wants to be somebody, I will gladly send you the $3 and the log you have to fill out!  Being somebody ain't what it cracked up to be.

Boy I used to love to fill out all kinds of surveys, til I had my fill of them.

I finally starting tossing requests in the mail, with no qualms about it whatsoever!

Music now might be a whole nuther animal!

Sounds like ( pun!) you'll enjoy this, hope so! hope you get some good vibes! whether it's the Beach Boys or Classic

Oh, that is painful!  That really hurts!

I wish I could, but they no longer ask, they send!  I could be dishonest and just keep the cash and trash it, but my damn ethics prevents that.  I will try to get off it for next year tho.

I stood in the middle of the cross walk and yelled "I am somebody" once. Funny thing though... everyone only looked at me like I was somebody wierd.

I don't think they were wrong.

No, you would just be a candidate for the movie Network!  But I can live without being part of polls.

I thought I was somebody once, but then I decided that am I everybody but it got too crowded in my head so I am back to somebody once again.

Good luck with the Arbitron thing, better you than me.

I am a nobody but I do know a few somebodys. The problem with them is they're so used to be somebodys, they're now anybodys.

And everybody knows that, but nobody does anything about it.

well I thought I was a somebody til a neighbor told me that "SOMEDAY" I'd be somebody, so now I realize that I haven't yet reached the somebody status, I'm just nobody's somebody..

Cool! The last time we did it at my home, we each got $1! That's for three of us, so you're lucky! I enjoyed it although it was tedious because I had to remind myself to listen to the radio which I don't do that often! But we all did it and I never heard from them again! Maybe they didn't like our listenership too much.LOL! Have fun doing it!
