Kelly Ripa, how do you do it?

I have so many questions that need answering I think I am starting to remember what it was like to be an infant that is discovering the world for the first time....but that honestly is usually what my day to day life consists of, confusion. Like tonight.
Had a few beers after work, looking for a fast safe way home...hail a cab..hello.
Cab experiences can range from horrifying and regretable...... to you praying for your life to learning something new about people in other places and countires .....followed by an invitation to a family dinner.
Tonight I have to say was a first...this guy has a very nice speaker system, conveniently attached to a television that was mounted in between the driver and passenger seats. After the first whif of cologne subsided I watched him apply a nice thin coat of lotion to his hands. Was this for fast movment of the wheel.... need some assistance turning the corer? ..anyways......At first he was watching reality tv shows and after a while I just sat back and stopped watching because not only did I not want to crash and burn but I really didnt want to ruin his conentration on who was being voted off what reality tv show...anyways....I kinda spaced out for a while and then Becker came on! Listening to the sitcom Becker without any visual reference is an experience of it's own. First of all it's not funny. Now it is very possible that it is not funny to me because I am not seeing the magical moment that is happening between Ted Dansons pre-determined verbage and physical movements. I guess talking about doctors that don't care about anything except money is funnier if you see it instead of hear it.
Later the cab and I got wrapped up in a little bit of traffic. He turned Becker off....but why? He put on this Italian orchestra production that not only calmed the nerves but really made me yearn for David Hasslehoff...I mean please sit back, relax and watch the meter turn. I don't think I am going to have to break this 20 afterall.
