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.

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.

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...

My job

I have worked at my company for, unofficially, 17 years. When I first started working there in June, 1992, the average work week was 55-57 hours. Sometimes you worked more than that. I was 36 years old at the time and I could handle the long hours and short nights of sleep. 17 years and three knee surgeries later, I need less hours work and more hours sleep. Even moving into a quasi desk job, I still find it difficult to crawl out of bed at 3am. I could get up later if I wanted to put up with both rush hours. But this morning, things will change slightly. I received a call from my department manager yesterday. I was notified that I had to cut my time down to 40 hours. This would be down from 44-45 that I normally work. No surprise there as all the other departments got notified before I was. And I had to split my time between plants, doing calibrations at the other shop 1-1/2 days a week. I'm actually looking forward to the change. I also like the prospect of getting an hour extra...

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?
