Some quick takes-Coming attractions

First, I am several "From the Pressboxes" short, but I will catch up. The Rittman band show was this past Saturday and it was a great success. I just have some things to do before I post it.

Next, as I have gotten some good response from the pro wrestling post from early last year, I will repost the other three from that "series." that will be once a week for the next three.

I also plan on ranting about the Bureau of Motor Vehicles, here in the great state of Ohio.

I have a book review that has been too long in coming in the next few days.

And I still wish to keep this blog a safe haven from politics, as I have blogging friends who support different candidates. Cliff Note: I will be so glad when this election is over. As a Christian, it will be my duty to pray for whomever wins the election. I may review another book that deals with that.

Lastly, my latest post over at Seek Him First, my faith based blog, is about gossip. It links to Terry Pluto's latest "Faith and You" column.

You must be a busy bee!!!
Ditto on the politics. I can't wait for it to be over and who ever ends up in there needs LOTS of prayers!!

I agree. As I have said, my hope is the lesser of the two evils comes out on top!! Hopefully by election day I'll have figured out which one that is!!

You have complaints with the Ohio Bureau of Motor Vehicles? Hmmm....I wonder why that doesn't surprise me! HA HA! I have a few complaints of my own about them. :)

Daisy, If I would have wrote the post about the BMV that was going through my mind yesterday afternoon, this blog would have been flagged.

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?

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...
