Blogging Around

Then a light bulb goes off in my head: I was going around the list of blogs on my side bar and got this idea while reading Pilgrim's Scrawl. Pilgrim came back this week after taking some time to retool.

I don't know how often I will be doing this, but I want to direct my readers to some of the posts I have seen in other blogs.

First, Pilgrim's Scrawl has a story about this friend of Pilgrim's who decided to get a meaningful gift while they were away from the kids for awhile. Also check out the comments, which are quite funny. It also inspired several humorous emails between myself and Liquid.

My newest friend, Frasypoo is up next. Her blog, This and That had a post on Thursday, called Wierd News from Georgia. Once again, the comments are priceless.

Liquid Illuzion had a story touching story yesterday about a man who had helped a baby bull elephant. You may have to fight back the tears.

And I want to continue shilling for my friend Tim Lones and his Classic Cleveland Media blog. Tim does a lot of hard work going to the area libraries looking for information of broadcast days gone by. Tim takes the bus to places like Cleveland and Youngstown from his home in Canton, since, for physical reasons, he can't drive.
Tim provides one heck of a service for those of us who like to read about what we grew up with, as he goes back into his personal time machine to get us the information we desire. He has many neat links there too.

MsFuldheim,

Thanks for stopping by. I'm glad you are enjoying what is a very enjoyable hobby for myaself.

Frasypoo,

Thanks for making the rounds. Seeing I don't care too much for memes, I think it would be a good gesture to let my readers know about the bloggers that put up some good posts. Especially those who give me encouragement.

Thanks for the call out my Brother! You are truly a kind man.

Now that the Blue Jays are putting away the bats my support is going to the Indians. That and a buck-twenty-five will get you a coffee.

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

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

Sometimes Sports are Just Sports

 This may or may not make the final cut of my book. I was writing about some events this weekend and what had started as a joyous Friday night at my home school district became a weekend of heartbreak in the area after what happened at another school. Sometimes We Need to Realize That Sports are Just Games   Friday nights in late summer and early fall are sometimes a big deal for high school students and their families. As the long-time band announcer for my local high school, it is a time of year I always look forward to. This past Friday night was originally supposed to be the homecoming game for the local high school. The schedule had to be changed a bit because of the uncertainty of the opponents being able to field a team. There was talk around the league that they may have had to forfeit this game, so homecoming for the local school was rescheduled. The opponents, which are rivals of my local school district, were able to field a team and the game was played. The game was
