Around the blogs-April Edition

I guess this is one of the times when I can say my blog is about blogging.

First, I have designated Cleveland Classic Media as the featured blog of the month of April. I have mentioned on many occasions that Tim Lones does a spectacular job of educating those of us interested in his hobby. One of Tim's latest posts is of a YouTube video featuring Mike Douglas and Patty Duke singing "Something Stupid." Tim has some classic material there. Check it out. It's very entertaining. And while you're there wish Tim a "happy bloggerversary." As of this past Friday, March 28, Tim has been doing his thing for us for one year.

Sometimes you can expect company from someone else's good word about you. I got a visit from Jennifer today. She writes a blog called "Dust Bunny Hostage." From what I see this is a blog that caters mainly to my readers of the fair sex. Jennifer is a proud parent and a prouder Christian. She left a kind comment here, then left to visit Diamond, as she is looking for some inspiration. While she was at A Day in the Zone, Jennifer left some words of encouragement for Diamond. Stop by anytime you wish Jennifer.

Jennifer heard about me from some kind words written by Sindi, of Life is a Roller Coaster fame. Sindi found herself awake last Thursday night(for her). She sat at her keyboard and wrote a post called Random Thoughts, and in it she wrote some very kind words about things I do. I discovered this while I was getting ready for work early Friday morning(for me.) It was actually minutes after Sindi posted her thoughts. Jennifer came over here because of the post Sindi wrote. So...Thank you Sindi.

Pilgrim posted today about his DW(Darling Wife) who is now a professional blogger. The post is called New Kid on the Blog, and he tells about her now 2 blogs-Organizing Connections blog and Minimalist Mommy. All you dedicated mothers check them out. You see Pilgrim, I not only look out for my friends, but their spouses too.

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...

Expand My Territories

Jabez cried out to the God of Israel, "Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge my territory! Let your hand be with me, and keep me from harm so that I will be free from pain." And God granted his request. 1 Chronicles 4:10 NIV The verse above is commonly referred to as the Prayer of Jabez. I was impressed to find my copy of the book written by Bruce Wilkinson and read it again. Some recent happenings prompted me to reflect upon how my territories have been expanded. The Lord has been blessing me and I have really not deserved these blessings. The past several years, I have been sharing my poetry with my friends on Facebook. I also share the poems with others by writing them on index cards. These are usually received with smiles and people telling me that I should write a book. For years, I have been under the belief that poets and composers achieve the greatest fame after they start decomposing.  The last year or so, I have shared my poems with some best selling author...

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?
