I Like Jeremy Moses because.....

This past November, I was reading my favorite source for media news, Ohio Media Watch. OMW had announced a new media blog, Tri-State Media Watch, a blog dedicated to covering the Greater Cincinnati area. Tim at Cleveland Classic Media also welcomed TSMW to the blogosphere. I decided to give it a look and also read the profile of the author, Jeremy Moses. Much to my surprise, listed among the blogs he was following, was WIXY's Gone Bananas. I then figured this dude had some good taste.

I also introduced Jeremy to my readers as I have a couple on my list who lived in the coverage area of the Cincinnati media outlets. Others from the bunch then took a liking to Jeremy, and why not? He's a very likable young man. Pretty much like most of us, Jeremy has this desire to communicate and is an internet disc jockey.

Soon afterward Jeremy launched a second blog called Personal Thoughts/Observations From N Ky. This was a blog for those who weren't media geeks. Through this Jeremy revealed to us that he is a young man who has had some challenges in life and has taken them head on.

Physical problems, including spina bifida has limited Jeremy's mobility, but has not limited his desire. The way he gets around really puts the rest of us to shame. He has taken a liking to all of us and is active in the comment section of many blogs. He is also good about promoting other's blogs.

Jeremy is also a fan of meteorology. One morning early in the winter as I was getting ready for work, I looked around the blogs and saw that Jeremy had posted a weather report on TSMW for Medina and Wayne counties. Nothing like having my own personal weatherman. He later mentioned why he was interested in meteorology.

Jeremy has also had his ups and downs in life and is not too proud to ask for prayer when he needs to. I forward a devotional to many of you who read my blog, including Jeremy. The other day, Jeremy had enough confidence in those I send the devotionals to to give a detailed prayer request, and according to Jeremy, the response was awesome. Keep on praying for and encouraging him.

Those who haven't been to Personal Thoughts/Observations From N KY, check it out and leave Jeremy a comment to let him know you've been there. Or, if you're interested in media happenings in the Greater Cincinnati area, check out Tri-State Media Watch.

All these I like "insert name here" blogs are just the greatest thing! I don't want to rip off Cliff but at the same time I want to because it is such a cool concept and makes the person feel so good. YOU deserve his place in the sun for you, and very cool and you returned it to him because he deserves it too:-)Have a lovely day (it is sooo blustery here in the Akron/Canton/Cleveland radio market today :-)

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 game was
