This through Whiskey Bar: The Macomb Daily mentions that Radio Flyer, yes the little red wagon company, is moving much of its operations to China.

The company’s Web site is mum on the announcement, which seems to have come yesterday. However the site’s history page has this:

“Like the Original Red Wagon that lent the company its name, Radio Flyer Inc. has become an American Classic. From its humble beginnings, this simple, enduring enterprise has been reinterpreted and rediscovered with each new generation - creating a legacy of toys that continue to inspire the imagination.”

Can the American economy no longer support its “classics”? Is Gen Y the last new generation to enjoy this American classic?

If you’ve ever thought, “I wonder how The Exorcist could be better told in 30 seconds, with cartoon bunnies,” you’re in luck.

You can’t tell me the Internet isn’t changing the world.

Air America might be a great idea in theory, but it seems a bit rough getting off the ground. Like Blunted, I tried to register for the streaming audio, and got the cold shoulder from their server. I also searched for some of the stations listed on their member list, and got dead-ends for listening mirrors.

Not only that, but their form’s radio buttons for gender let me select both male and female. I guess there are more transexuals in the liberal audience than in the conservative audience.

I’m sure they’ll work it out, but I was hoping to be there for the debut. I’m not as excited about Al Franken’s show (though interested) as I am about Chuck D co-driving the morning show bus. Como se dice, iconic?

Oh, and MPs* to the small beta testing group for this site — particularly those on Microsoft platforms. The feedback has proved beneficial, and helped my coding slave (re: brother) jiggle the handle, as it were, to make the site more stable.
