Back to work today

I am getting ready to go to work after a one day break, which really only served to mess up my system. I slept yesterday until 8:45am and today had to get up at 2:45am. And I'm expecting a cold white ride into work today.

If you get a chance, check out Struke's latest post over at Media Matters, where he comments on the best and worst commercials of 2007. He really appreciates comments, as he uses his blog as an educational tool for the students he teaches in his high school media classes. And while you're at it check out the posts below, which contain work from some of his students.

And finally this is in response to Kasper's(Michelle) comment on my last post-Blog about what you know. We are all unique people and what you write will be of value to someone else. I have only received only a few unkind comments and those were expected because last August I took on a local radio personality. 99% of the comments I receive are favorable and I have only had to delete one comment because of the spirit in which it was written. The writer of that comment? Me. Check out some of my posts from September, 2006 where I was looking for a direction for this blog to go into and you will see things that I wouldn't write nowadays, but it's part of the learning experience.

Have a great day everyone.

Hi, Cliff!!!

You're right. We're all unique people and the dark moments are parts of our experiences.

Thank you for the advice. I'm still finding myself in a way & hopefully I will get my blog where I want it to be.
It is our uniqueness that make us special. If everyone was alike it would be a boring way to live.

Indeed, Cliff, growth is a wonderful thing. But what has amused me in my lifetime is, that growth sometimes takes us backward.

Hope you and yours had a wonderful new years!

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?
