A new long distance friend as a result of a local aimed post.

A couple of days ago, I posted about Dave Ramsey coming back on the air in my area, at a time I could listen. Thank you again WHLO/640. I figured I would get a response from my local friends WZZP and Jim, but the first response was from BusyBeeSuz. She said that her friend Happy Wife Happy Life was obsessed with Dave.

In the past, I have crossed paths with HWHL, usually at Suz', or Bella's blog. So I went over to Day By Day, found one of HWHL's comments, read her profile, then took a trip to Happy Wife Happy Life. I commented on one of her posts and she came over to visit me. One of the comments she made included a reference to her church and how to get to a message. I listened to the message by her pastor, then tried to download others from iTunes, as I thought this was some good listening.

I also found that she and I have similar reading habits as far as motivational books are concerned. She calls herself an entrepreneur, as well as a wife and mother. I am proud to introduce HWHL as my newest friend and hope everybody pays her a visit. I think you will definitely get something you want to keep from her blogs.

This is nice Cliff.
HWHL is the reason I started Blogging. We were friends in High School and have kept in touch through the years via Chritsmas cards and email. She is the one I blame for all this.....:)
She is a wonderful person. Love her to pieces.

Well, I like to get a network of online friends who like to be friendly first and foremost. The other important thing about my friends is that we all can encourage each other.

I like to push blogs that promote healthy, two way conversation.

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...

Bananas and Sleep Apnea

First thing I want to do is welcome all the good folks from Australia who are checking me out as a result of Google searches. I recently wrote a post on sleep apnea , discussing my history with it and my new CPAP machine. Because of this and the name of my blog, this is the top site google lists when somebody types "bananas sleep apnea" into the search line on Google. All of the sites I have seen, that were not the usual sites that come here, ended in "dot au" which I know as Australia. Normally the only hit from down under is by my good friend David McMahon. The reason for the search is that a research team in Australia has found. as a result of a study, that drinking a banana smoothie may assist in easing conditions that cause sleep apnea. Phospholipids, or fatty acids, in bananas stay active in the mouth for six hours and may keep the throat open, therefore reducing the risk of choking. Further studies will expand to those, like myself, who need a breathing machi...

Why?

What I'm posting now is with the blessing of Chelle. Chelle is the cousin of Suzanne's husband, Richard. I had gotten the impression from both of them that they were about as close as sisters. Suzanne had been a friend of mine since I had discovered one of her blogs in July, 2006. We would make reference to each other on our blogs and would have dialogue via email quite a bit. It was no surprise to me that she was friends to many other bloggers as well. I felt it was quite an honor to be held in as high esteem as I was. We even talked to each other on the phone on occasion. I felt as we had known each other for a long time. I also knew that Suzanne was having some personal problems, much of which had to do with a very troubled marriage. I would let her bounce things off me, and I would send her some encouragement. While she was going through some of her marital problems, she made herself available to give me a lift when I needed it. My son was having some problems of his own a...
