Road Rage is going to be a bit more political for the next four weeks as the U. S. enters its silly season before the elections November 7.

For those listeners who aren't in the U. S. -- my apologies.  We'll have our usual segments, maybe a few more Limbo Files than usual, and it will all be over soon.

We're All Gonna Die!! has a snake story, a fish story, and we wonder about the future when "Jackass Number Two" is our most popular movie.

What Were They Thinking? has stupid crook tricks.

We Rant about the contributions from our two most recent Presidents.

Vote early and often with Road Rage.

#73: 5-5-5-5
September 11, 2006

This episode of Road Rage is a memorial tribute to those New Yorkers who died at the World Trade Center five years ago.  It includes sounds recorded that day from witnesses and police and fire radios, some of which may be disturbing to some listeners.

As a native New Yorker now living in Maine,  I wanted to tell these stories of New York and how it coped with the tragedy.

The episode title is the bell signal sounded when a firefigher dies in the line of  duty: five bells, repeated four times.

This episode runs 15:00
