Blessings

While emotionally, I'm not yet at 100%, I do want to get back posting some. I've noticed in leaving comments at other blogs, I've got to tame the inner snark.

I feel blessed at the support I have gotten from my blog friends, not only from the comments, but from my email also.

A friend like Liquid is a treasure that can't be bought. She is an expert on giving a hug from 800 miles away and was a great help when I was doubting my ability as a father and husband.

Pilgrim and Frasypoo got right on the ball when it came to offering up prayers for me. They were among the first I contacted.

Amias gave me support just with her continuious visits to see if anything new was written.

I didn't feel much like writing many emails. I would just forward my Turning Point devotionals as I got them. I hope they were a blessing. thank you for the emails I got from those saying they were praying for my family.

I also thank all my local friends, Scott, Struke, and Brenda. Brenda is always there to give me support, as most of you know. She checks on me if she doesn't hear from me. Scott had shot me an email minutes after I wrote the last post. Struke, who is fast becoming a friend of many on my blog roll asked me to keep him updated.

Thank you all.

Liquid,

I figured the storms had something to do with it.

You were there for me when it meant the most.

Cliff you are loved ... you are appreciated, we are blessed by you --- I think there are no accidents and God put us in the way of each other. Some of us are strong at times, some of us are weak at times --- but with friends there is always a good balance.

You have a good day Cliff ... as I am still praying for all of us.

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
