Loser of the Week:
Our top candidates this week were...
- Rob the Paper Boy - Rob sent us a very arrogant e-mail in which he claims that he rules the road between 4 and 6am; and if he wants to drive on the left side of the road nobody can stop him. He also threatened that he could run WPLR out of business if we challenged his supremecy.
