Some Hellos and Some Updates

I got some new visitor comments lately, so I want to give some shout outs.

First is Melanie. We've crossed paths on Frasypoo's and Pat Jenkins' blogs. She come over to pay me a visit last week here. She's had a rough past week and a half, so I delayed going to visit her blog, Monday Through Sunday, until today. Her blog is faith based and written in devotional form. It's a good read for those who want to meditate on things of the Lord. Melanie lives in Denver. Melanie, if you see Mark Sanborn, say hi for me.

Next I want to welcome Michelle from Scotland. She comes here from Amel's Realm. We had a discussion in the comment section today. I told her the story of why I identify myself as 74WIXYgrad. Her blog is titled Crow's Feet.

An email today came from a fellow poster on the Cleveland.com Listening Party board(no link because I won't link trash). He posts as weezel and the two of us, along with another poster named Lynnpuskas, had several of our posts deleted from that board. Anyone can ask for anything deleted and it goes to a non human entity which does the deleting.

Weezel got in touch with me via email and told me that he was done with the board but was thinking of starting his own blog. He also told me that he liked mine. All I say to this is "Go for it!" We can always use another good Northeast Ohio based blog. And don't be a stranger here either. And Lynn, anytime you(and weezel) want to leave a message here, please do so. I have several good folks who stop by and add their 2 cents. I can always welcome a couple more here.

What a drag it is getting old:I got my new glasses today. I have to get used to trifocals, but hopefully my eyes will stop hurting when I spend most of my work time on my computer.

Yea, I wear "progressive" bi-focal, and when I work on the computer I have to have a pair of single-vision. Yes, getting old is a drag, and I don't like th alternative!

Glad to see the new folks, will drop by their blogs. I intend to take a minute and go through your blog roll.

Michelle, you are very welcome. And I thank you for your addition of my blog to your links.

One correction though. My name is Cliff and not Chris. No biggie, but everybody knows my name, sorta like Cheers, and I don't want any confusion to arise from it.

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
