I was a bit early getting to the good 'ol ParknRide yesterday so I passed the time by listening to the radio. Buckhead and Bubba were talking about the craze with Facebook and Twitter, and everyone's obsession with status updates. They decided to do their own status updates live over the air. They all did their own and asked listeners to call in with their status updates. So I thought to myself, self, what is my status update? I thought of how cozy I was in my little car, and how much I did not want to get onto the bus with the tiny little seats. That's it! My status update was "Anne is wondering why they have to make the seats so small on the bus."
So, with nothing better to do, I called the station. I was sure that I would get a busy signal. But to my surprise, someone (probably the intern Beaker) picked up. I told him my status update and he asked me to hang on the line. I then held and was able to listen to the broadcast through my cell phone. Pretty cool. Then the DJs came back on the air and picked up my line as I announced my status update to the world.
I've actually had a lot of luck with radio contests and getting on the air. I've probably been on the air at least 6 or 7 times just by calling in. I won a cd prize pack. I even won tickets to see Justin Timberlake and Christina Aguilera in concert. No lie!
Maybe I missed my calling. If you ever want to win anything over the radio, just let me know. I'll call for you.
