Why not just carry an extra radio on your person at all times if you're
going to be so damn stupid.

Don't you keep any records in your household? Tax returns? Medical? Birth
certificate? Rental lease or mortgage papers? Loan papers on your car?
Stick it in a folder and stick that in your file cabinet.

Or if you really live out of your car, put it in the glove compartment.

While replacing the car battery, you just have to remember to leave the
ignition switched to position II or III, since the 'cigarette lighter'
is dead in the other positions. That's why you can't charge your cell
phone overnight. (THEY want it that way). :-)
