About Me

Michelle of Crows Feet fame has tagged me for this

The rules are:
Post 5 links to 5 of your previously written posts. The posts have to relate to the 5 key words given (family, friend, yourself, your love, anything you like). Tag 5 other friends to do this meme. Try to tag at least 2 new acquaintances (if not, your current blog buddies will do) so that you get to know them each a little bit better.

The Family: I have many posts about my family. Two of the posts I want to link to is about the birth of my grandson, and my daughter's wedding. So here is *Special Announcement* and A Wedding Fit for one of Daddy's Girls.

Friends: The first of what later would become the Top Banana award would go to one of my best friends and best supporter of this blog, Brenda. Check out Off Blog Friend Award.

About Yourself: That's a hard one,and requires some thought. For now I will link to the third post I made, I GOTTA BE ME. Bear in mind I was looking for a font that worked for me at the time. Here's another about me called Hair Guy Memories.

Your Loves: Here is a post I wrote last March called An Unplanned Week From Blogging. I mentioned about mine and Kathy's 28th wedding anniversary.

Anything you like:In this post I stepped out of character, as I was sorta miffed when an afternoon radio personality in Cleveland dissed me when I got on the air and tried to explain why I didn't use my real name when I posted on area message boards. The post was called Voice of Cleveland was Rude to Me. The comments I had gotten from some of the folks working at the Clear Channel headquarters in Independence, Ohio were quite humorous. Well at least to me. I do want to add that I know shock radio is an act, and that post was an act on my part.

Maybe some other time....
Some of these post I have read, others I hadn't. It was good to get to know you, and to see some of your wonderful family.

I really enjoyed that, Cliff. I think your daughter's wedding and you taking off your hat in Hair Guy memories were my favourites.

I chuckled reading Voice of Cleveland. "Neanderthal" - I loved that.

:-D

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
