Kinky Shovels and Other Stuff

Life is looking up again. I got through the audit for another year and I now am aiming towards having things ready long before the next one. I just hope the next 12 months is not a country song like the previous 12 were.

I'm sure I'm getting some hits from people searching for something else, but I have to share with the "bunch" about the "kinky shovel." I was driving to work this morning and listening to my favorite morning show. They got me started off right by playing some Toby Keith. Sue talked about going into her office this morning and almost tripping over something. It was a kinky shovel. But I need to back up a little.

Last week, while I was driving to work, Scott, Sue, and Ryan were talking about shoveling snow. Sue had just changed to another service to clean her drive. He was less expensive, but Sue found out that she got what she paid for, as he would just plow one path in her double wide driveway. She had to go out and shovel the snow in order to properly utilize her driveway. Now Sue stands about 5'2" and a good stiff wind would possibly blow her away. (Here is a photo I stole from the WQMX morning show's MySpace page of Sue Wilson and Toby Keith.) Scott told her that she should go to Lowes and get herself a kinky shovel. So the talk during the coffee clatch for a couple of days included the kinky shovel. I then emailed them and told them that Sue should be sent back to her former employer, a religious company, and get healed.

So the other day Sue went into Target with her daughter and asked for a kinky shovel, thinking that was the brand name, which when she got a funny look from the associate, she realized it wasn't. But Scott come to the rescue because he wanted to save his partner's back.

But I found this other snow shovel which might be a better bet for both of them. Scott has a different problem. He has a broken auger. To your left, you have what's called (ta-da) the World's Safest Snow Shovel. We baby boomers have to watch out for each other.

Also, if I write a post about a "wheelie shovel" I won't get any hits from people looking for an adult website.

For a first person account of the kinky shovel story go to Scott Wynn's Window
. No word yet if Sue will be offering a rebuttal on her blog.

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...
