[BC] Negativity

[Dana Puopolo]

I know the towers were recently painted, and the grass was mowed out back. 

I'm going there today (my Volvo is parked there; I have to pick it up).

I'll look around...

Nonetheless, the site doesn't look like that anymore, Im sure...I can call

Like Isaid, it's obvious you dislike Clear Channel..but you show your bias
in your reports and work. I may not like them, but I'll give them credit
where credit is due.
