Tuesday, thy name this week is Monday...

...Or the other way around. Took a vacation day yesterday as I had my annual physical. Things turned out fine, well at least until the bloodwork comes back.

Something I thought about as I was mowing my yard yesterday afternoon was how my blog was taking care of itself. This is in regard to Tim helping Brenda out with directions to Sandy Valley. Rittman plays there a week from Friday. Perhaps if Tim decides to return to his alma mater, he will come over and introduce himself to myself and Brenda.

Kinda nice having two three day weekends in a row. Even nicer having blogging friends who help each other out.

And since I mentioned Tim, I also want to mention his blog, Cleveland Classic Media. He has a real passion for local media and does a very thorough job in his research of his material. Although his target readership is folks from Northeast Ohio, there is something of interest to anyone who has ever liked television.

Thank you CNC. CNN was there the night my daughter and I went, but I had no idea that the feature they were doing was about MegaBeth. She had told me after the bout that she was 53, which is my age.

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...

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...

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?
