Another Hendrie fan here. I remember the first time I heard his show he had a “Spanish poet” on who supposedly was making a fortune selling romantic Spanish greeting cards and on the show he was giving people advice on what to write to their lovers. I understand Spanish and he was saying stuff like, “My love, your ass is bigger than this earth.” I didn’t get that it was a farce at first until enraged Spanish speakers called in. Then I laughed my earth-sized ass off.

I have to listen to KOGO first thing in the morning because that’s all that we can get clearly in the bedroom. Commuting, I listen to Handel in the morning and John and Ken in the afternoon (both KFI).

After I posted here earlier today, I found a link on Ben’s blog (sorry, but I can’t find the link or the story) for a WSJ story published today that the credit crunch is affecting the credit cards companies. It did say that many companies have cut back on sending out the offers and the ones that are going out are not offering 0-2 percent starter rates, but more like 6.99. It also said that many cc companies are simply raising rates astronomically or simply closing people’s accounts — even people who had never paid late. There was an anecdote about such a guy who was summarily notified that his rate was going from 17.9 to 29.9. Another anecdote was about Amex suddenly demanding that a customer (and not a new customer, either) prove his income or something like that.

I just find it odd that up till about two-three weeks ago, I was getting four or five credit card offers every week. Not a one has arrived in the last couple of weeks.

Since the teenage daughters were in on the decision, the one in college, at least, should be working all summer to help the family out. But I don’t know how much of a dent that would make, if any.
