I like Brenda because.........

Those who have followed this blog for the past 1-1/2 years know that Brenda is one of my personal friends and one who has followed this blog from the beginning. She is also a long time (former) face of the World's Greatest Band Boosters(tm). Brenda is a good friend to have around. She puts a smile on my face and is quick to give me a quick constructive comment in regards to my blogging.

Those who read my blog in December, 2007 were introduced to Brenda as I presented her with an off blog friend award. The reason I did this was that I was having a bad day a few prior to that one and unloaded in an email to her. I thought for sure when I hit the send button that I was going to lose one of my best friends. Brenda then showed how good a friend she was when she sent back a very well thought reply. I then had to tell the blogosphere what a good person she was.

Brenda also would frequently go to the other blogs on my list and leave anonymous comments. All during this time I would tell her that she should write a blog of her own. After ideas were bounced my way on what the content would be, Brenda come up with the name Snicker Snicker Snort. I checked on the web address to find if it was available and it was. Brenda claimed it and the rest is history.

Snicker*Snicker*Snort is a chronicle of Brenda's life and her family, which she very proud of. We have also read about her view of the past American Idol season, among other issues of culture. We also get an occasional Wednesday Whining and are introduced to other friends of hers.

Check it out as she is a very gracious hostess.

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...

Big Chuck! a review

Update 01/12/09 : Click here to read a related article on Ohio Media Watch, along with a review of the book. Cliff Note: It's the second article in the OMW post. I spent a good portion of my Friday nights while I was going through my preteen and teenage years watching a television show called "The Hoolihan and Big Chuck Show." In high school, I was on the wrestling and football teams. One of my teammates was a quiet young man named Mike Schodowski. His father is Charles Schodowski, also known as Big Chuck. The book I'm about to review chronicles his 47 years as a part of Cleveland television history. The book tells how Chuck come from a family living in the Slavic Village neighborhood in Cleveland, how he went from working in a foundry on Cleveland's east side, to going into Cleveland television, first at KYW, channel 3 to WJW, channel 8, and how he became a Cleveland icon. Chuck started out as a camera man and went into directing. He was a part of the phenomenon...
