Finally Friday

This week is winding to a close and I cannot be happier.

Thank you to those who went over to wish Cathouse Teri a happy birthday on Wednesday. Teri has been a tremendous supporter of my blogs, so I just wanted to return the favor. Don't ever be scared away from the blog because of implied content. Teri is a loving person who gives her unique views on a variety of issues.

A good friend of mine has a blog in the works. When she launches it, the WIXY's Gone Bananas promotion department will help spread the word.

Speaking of friends with blogs, a friend of mine, Jim, has a blog documenting his struggles with OCD. Pay him a visit and give him a word of encouragement.

A WIXY's Gone Bananas editorial
Now, there are folks who read these blogs who aren't bloggers. In some cases these are friends, co workers, or family members. Sometimes it's someone who feel they have an axe to grind with the blogger. This was the case with a blog on my list this past week. The person reading this blog wasn't content with all the turmoil they had caused in this other person's life and they went to other blogs on their blog roll and made damaging comments there. The great thing about this blogging group is we have respect one for another and this case was no different. The blogger who received the comment got in contact with the other blogger. I just want to say to this person making the damaging comment-Try to be an adult. If you can't be satisified with the damage you have already caused, then you are the one who needs help.

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...

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?

Why?

What I'm posting now is with the blessing of Chelle. Chelle is the cousin of Suzanne's husband, Richard. I had gotten the impression from both of them that they were about as close as sisters. Suzanne had been a friend of mine since I had discovered one of her blogs in July, 2006. We would make reference to each other on our blogs and would have dialogue via email quite a bit. It was no surprise to me that she was friends to many other bloggers as well. I felt it was quite an honor to be held in as high esteem as I was. We even talked to each other on the phone on occasion. I felt as we had known each other for a long time. I also knew that Suzanne was having some personal problems, much of which had to do with a very troubled marriage. I would let her bounce things off me, and I would send her some encouragement. While she was going through some of her marital problems, she made herself available to give me a lift when I needed it. My son was having some problems of his own a...
