Well, Happy New Year anyway

New Year's Day is here, and the only hangover I'm suffering from is the one over my belt. But I posted yesterday that I have made no resolutions, so I will have to follow this secret formula, but I will let you in on it: eat less and exercise more. We just have to be able to write this up as a fad diet and we could make millions.

My wife had to work last night so instead of going to church for New Year's Eve dinner, and service, I wanted to stay home and wait for her. We watched "New Years Rockin' Eve". Dick Clark looked good last night,even though he's still showing the effects of the stroke he suffered two years ago. Ryan Secrest's appearance reminded me that "American Idol" starts up in a couple of weeks. The best part is watching everybody who think they have talent show they don't.

Enjoy your day.

Post 800: Time to chat

Hi Guys, It's hard to believe that this is post number 800 for this blog. I started this blog out of my desire to communicate.

When I first decided to write my musings, a friend from the radio and television boards who goes by the name of newsnomore, told me not to be discouraged if I didn't get any readers. The fact that I did in the early going made me surprised and grateful that anyone was enjoying what I wrote. I've had people tell me that maybe it wasn't meant for me to ever be in radio, that maybe my calling was blogging. Nowadays I think blogging makes for better two way conversation than terrestrial radio, especially the way I do it, non confrontational. The closest I come from any confrontation is the innocent digs that Pat and I shoot at each other. On an average day I get betwee...

Lawson's Chip Dip

On a couple of occasions I have written posts dedicated to Lawson's, a convenience store chain that was located in Ohio for close to 50 years. In the late 1980's the chain was bought out by Dairy Mart, of Engfield Ct. Dairy Mart was then purchased by Alimentation Couche-Tard, and most stored were rebranded Circle K. Something that has survived the years since Lawson's has left the landscape is Lawson's Chip Dip. I get many hits on this blog from people out of Ohio, I'm thinking former Buckeyes, looking for availability of this chip dip. I had gotten an email from a former resident of Cleveland looking for it. I emailed Circle K about this sometime ago asking if it was possible to send the dip out to those out of state, they said because of quality issues that it was not possible. My only suggestion would be to get in touch with Circle K in your home area and ask them to start stocking this very popular item that seems to make every get-together complete. Now we wil...
