I'm talking aboot that radio station in the city that play classic rock
on a daily basis, I've been listening to this station ever since I
could walk and I love it.

They used to have a sticker that showed a bushy fox playing a guitar
....the channel is 99.3...the FOX.

But now...your thoughts.
It's not yer content, it's how you pitch it too people

I used to always listen to the FOX when I was on the mainland. Now that I am on the Island, I want to hear local news. Good luck for me, because there is a station that plays classic rock that is local... 106.9 The WOLF. :P

Yeah, I've been listening to them for years and years... my main complaint is that it's too homogeneous and plays stuff that sounds pretty much the same across the board. I want *new* music whenever I can get it, but the new stuff the Fox plays mostly comes from the Nickelback-esque genre a lot of the time. Plus, Jeff O'Neill and the rest of the morning show just annoy me most of the time. *shrugs*

Not to say I don't listen to the station - I alternate it with 100.5 The Peak, which is great except that it doesn't play enough harder rock for my tastes. Anyone know how to pick up 107.7 The End out of Seattle locally? =P

I don't remember it exactly word-for-word and I'd LOVE it if anyone could find a soundclip of this:

"Hey, I'm Dave Grohl and you're listening to The Fox.  Foxes rock.  C*cks rock.  Foxes rock my c*ck.  Have you ever seen a fox's c*ck?  It rocks."

XD

I sometimes listen to The Fox when I'm feeling homesick and away somewhere on a vacation. Thank you, Internet. :3
I understand that scissors can beat paper, and I get how rock can beat scissors, but there's no way paper can beat rock. Paper is supposed to magically wrap around rock, leaving it immobile? Why can't paper do this to scissors? Screw scissors, why can't paper do this to people? Why aren't sheets of college ruled notebook paper constantly suffocating students as they attempt to take notes in class? I'll tell you why, because paper can't beat anybody; a rock would tear it up in two seconds. When I play Rock-Paper-Scissors, I always choose rock. Then, when somebody claims to have beaten me with their paper, I can punch them in the face with my already clenched fist, and say, "Oh sorry, I thought paper would protect you."

Haha; I dig it.

When I was younger, and raised in Oliver on small-town radio, I remember being on a roadtrip to Vancouver and hearing 'Crawling' by Linkin Park on this station.  It was an epiphany moment; to realise that there was actually such music in existence.

I shortly thereafter got into things like Nine Inch Nails and System of a Down, and it's been a downward spiral ever since.  ;)
