Re: ipod accessories that make it a radio too?

Another question: anyone make one of these that also receives AM radio? (My wife wants an iPod, but wants it to pick up AM so she can listen to ball games.)

Re: Favorite Cocktail Thread

I like bourbon staight or on the rocks, too, but a Manhattan's a nice pre-dinner drink, since the vermouth takes a little of the edge off. When you try one, don't make it too dry -- the vermouth's...

Re: Fancy or unusual barbeque items

Good call -- I think I'll add portabellas to the menu. Good for the one or two vegetarians who always show up.
