Suddenly, it switched over to some other broadcast, which was simply some old man with a deep raspy voice practically screaming, "Remember the Maine, to Hell with Spain! Remember the Maine, to Hell with Spain!" over and over again, before cutting back to the song about thirty seconds later. It was beautiful.
I also played way more guitar than any girl should. My fingers are a mess of skin falling off like I'm a leper or something. I actually played today until my fingers (well, just my ring finger) bled, and that's with fairly thin Ernie Ball strings and low action.

I love it when that happens! My brother used to record snippets of am radio for use in his quirky tunes he makes. Some pretty funny stuff.
