Some notes

First a shout goes out to Mr. and Mrs. Tim Lones, congratulating them on their 15th wedding anniversary. Tim's blog, Cleveland Classic Media, has undergone a face lift with a new template and it's looking really good. And a thank you to Tim for placing a link to my blog on the message board at the Big Chuck and Lil' John fansite.

Next shout goes to Ohio Media Watch, as the Mighty Blog of Fun(tm) was a little late in celebrating it's second anniversary. That blog has helped inspire other blogs, including this one.

To my friends that enjoy my Christian viewpoints: My other blog "Seek Him First" has it's first post since January. The post was inspired partly from some comments I heard from Dr. David Jeremiah as I was getting ready for church, and partially from the tone of the service at my church this morning.

Last note: The picture on the post below is indeed me. I had thought it would be somewhat funny if I took a picture of the WIXYcycle next to the motorcycles. The people at the establishment thought it would be funnier if the picture had me sitting on the WIXYcycle. So an unidentified biker chick took my picture with the WIXYcam, then someone from the establishment took a picture for their bulletin board.

Cliff,
Unrelated to this blog, but I was curious of your thoughts on Joe Magnacca quitting Rittman to go to Wadsworth, and what the future will hold for our school now. Not to mention how good he was to the band.

First, It's a good move for Mr. Magnacca and as far as I'm concerned, Wadsworth is getting a good administrator.

Now as far as the future of Rittman Schools is concerned, I feel the writing is more and more on the wall. I feel eventually there will be consolidation of more than services with Orrville as we are sharing the Superintendant.

The other possible scenario is Butch Ullman returning as high school principal, a position he held prior to 1996 when he became superintendant.

Joe will be missed, as he was a good disciplinarian(at least two of my children wouldn't have agreed with me when they were in school).

Hopefully the new principal will realize regarding the band-if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

I agree, I really like Mr. Magnacca and hate to see him go. We'd heard rumor of Orrville's Assistant Principal coming over. Guess we'll find out soon.

Never boring, our little school, never boring!!!

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...

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...

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?
