The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", sykesix asked the members: "What do you do if you arrive early at movie besides go to the snack bar?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

We got a Sirius for the car at 5PM at a Love's truck stop on I-40 on a trip from Denver to Chicago, late 1990's. At my wife's insistence. She said she could not stand me changing the station on the radio every time a commercial came on or when the signal got weak. For some reason it drove her crazy.

Had to call on the flip phone at $0.25/minute to get it activated before she would let me leave the gas station. The guy kept going thru his script trying to upsell me.

Now we live in a mountainous area and the OTA stations drop out 3 times between the house and town. So we kept the SiriusXM in the car.

Also, now being retired we don't drive the car much, but listen to SXM streaming on an Amazon Dot at home.
