Good Eats, WIXYgrad Style

For all those who are curious about what the rage is about Barberton chicken, as a public service, I will provide you with a link to the Barberton Magics website. Here you will find the recipes for the chicken, hot sauce and cole slaw pictured in the post about our gathering last night.

There is even a recipe for a healthy alternative to the traditional recipe for the chicken, for those not willing to throw caution to the wind.

bon appetit

I stopped by the site and marked it on my faves so i can go back later and check it out.

The chicken does call for a lot of lard. Well, if I am going to leave this world some day then I might as well leave it fat and happy. HE HE HE HE HE HE :-)

No offense, but I was born and raised in the south where they know how to make REAL fried chicken. The stuff Barberton calls chicken must be filled with hallucinogenic drugs for people to rave about it. I think it is the greasiest, most disgusting tasting chicken around. When my parents and all the kids moved up here we went out to one of the chicken houses that were recommended and ordered up. Food came out, we all took a couple of bites and then spit it out. He asked for the check, paid it, and told the manager that if they were in the south and tried to pass that swill off as fried chicken they would be out of business in two months. Figuring maybe it was just that place, we went to a couple of other Barberton chicken houses and, not wanting to take a chance on getting stuck with a huge bill, he ordered only one dinner, tasted it and tossed it. We have never been back to any of them and it just amazes us that people actually think that stuff is good fried chicken.

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...
