You can't be serious
The Merry Widow? The Merry Fucking Widow??? By Franz Lehar? Give me a fucking break. No one listens to this shite, no one not in a nursing home or a coma. This music was old-fashioned 70 years ago. Andre Rieu should be locked up in his ridiculous Italian castle and not be allowed to leave the country, unless it's to torture prisoners at secret CIA locations. The members of the Johann Strauss Orchestra should all be forced to get honest jobs.
What's most amazing about Classical96 playing this treacle is that it is nearly 1:30 in the morning. Anyone who might find this entertaining went to bed at least two hours ago.
But ... and here is the explanation for the quick rotation I spoke of earlier. There is no one actually at the microphone at this hour spinning discs. This is all on tape. And the playlist is all recycled from earlier shows. Probably the station's research shows that practically no one listens to it from 1:00 to 6:30 a.m., so it doesn't matter what they play then; and certainly going to the trouble of actually thinking up and arranging a programme is not worthwhile.
Fie, fie on you.

There are at least two difficulties: 1. my life is decidedly not sexy; 2. if it got sexy, some people might feel left out. In any event, a blog is a web log; a sex log is a slog. For those who want to read something sexy, there's always Valley of the Dolls
