Pleasant surprise

This evening, when I went out for some sandwiches, I went to the Rittman Subway, which had recently had a change in ownership. I got there and was treated to a pleasant surprise. Good service and good food.

Let me explain. The previous ownership had left a bad reputation in the community. They weren't a good place to work, or so I had heard. They were also closed by the health department for violations.

I believe that more people hear about it when you have a bad experience, then when you have a good one. I like to be positive when I post about local businesses, so I will tell you that when I was there, that the food I got was fresh and it was tasty. The owner was there getting ready for a new promotion which starts tomorrow, so we exchanged pleasantries, as he was ringing up my order. Yes, the owner of the franchise was helping the counter help, as she had gotten suddenly busy.

If you are one of my Rittman readers who were turned off by former ownership, come back. You will enjoy the changes. If you live outside of Rittman, give them a visit. The Subway is located on N. Main Street, across from Rittman City Hall.

Oh, and by the way, how about that Rittman boys basketball team?

Personal to Tony Rizzo: Get a map, and while you're at it, get a better looking hair piece.

The Rittman Boys did good. Just to note, the last time our 'boys' went to the Canton Field House to play this big game was in 1979. Sam Trogdon's (one of our leading players)dad played in that game, which we lost.
Also noting: 2 weeks from today the Rittman Marching Band will be performing at Universal Studios in Orlando. Will send pictures!!

Expand My Territories

Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, "Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain." And God granted his request. 1 Chronicles 4:10 NIV The verse above is commonly referred to as the Prayer of Jabez. I was impressed to find my copy of the book written by Bruce Wilkinson and read it again. Some recent happenings prompted me to reflect upon how my territories have been expanded. The Lord has been blessing me and I have really not deserved these blessings. The past several years, I have been sharing my poetry with my friends on Facebook. I also share the poems with others by writing them on index cards. These are usually received with smiles and people telling me that I should write a book. For years, I have been under the belief that poets and composers achieve the greatest fame after they start decomposing.  The last year or so, I have shared my poems with some best selling author...

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. Since radio and television is becoming more and more automated and less and less personal, I'm glad I made the decision to go in this direction as it has given me many blessings. 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...

From a "Battleground State"

I am going to make this one short and sweet. I live in Ohio, in this election season, one of the so called "Battleground states," a state crucial for any candidate presidential hopes. Of course we have had many visits from presidential and vice presidential candidates. Other blogs have dissected both campaigns so I will not. The only questions I have is will the promises made by either of these candidates exclusive to these states be fulfilled, or will they prove only to be hot air?
