Oh My God...

Terri Schiavo passed away earlier today. Click the headline. Trust me. Go ahead. Click it. I dare you.


***Update: No, I did NOT write that blog! I'm a sick bastard at times, but I'm simply forwarding that one on to you to consume as you see fit!***

Yesterday was my boss' birthday...so why should I care? Read this & you'll see why I love this industry!

Thanks to all of you who sent a birthday greeting today, whether in person, online or on the several cards that turned up on my desk. Your thoughts and best wishes are much appreciated!

I've decided I'm going to just keep turning 49 as long as I'm in Radio! (This was the 5th time...) This business has a way of keeping people young--at least between their EARS. (...don't even go there!!)

Working with all of you is a privilege and an honor. Seeing people grow and develop in every department, entertaining & informing the audience, getting results for clients and impacting our community are truly gifts that many business owners never have a chance to enjoy. Because of your hard work, I see those things every week.

I'm very lucky! I hope I NEVER grow up...and have to get a REAL job. And I hope YOU don't either.

Thanks again!

I freakin' ROCK on the RADIO!

THE biggest morning show prep sheet in the country is called The Complete Sheet. It's VERY funny & all of the big morning shows in the country are on it. Well, a bit that Kluck & I wrote & produced yesterday IS THE LEAD PIECE ON THE COMPLETE SHEET TODAY!!!! We sent it to them to listen to and they posted it for the ENTIRE F'ING COUNTRY TO LISTEN TO AND USE!!!

Hang on, I'll get it posted to the web soon!

Amazing how 1 week can change your brain's position.

Please keep us in your thoughts

This is the hardest thing to say, but Julie & I have lost our unborn baby.

We had some tests done and knew she wasn't healthy, and now she is in a better place. Please keep us in your thoughts and prayers.

Julie, I love you.

Thanks for the Support...

Now that the word is getting out that we're having a baby girl...the "advice" is rolling in...

From my pal Wolfie at the office: He says that if I were having a boy, I'd have to worry about 1 penis in the neighborhood. But since I'm having a girl...well, I'll have to worry about ALL the penises in the neighborhood.

Thanks Dave. Ya ass!

It's a GIRL!

Julie & I just got back from the doctor's office and the ultrasound appointment: our baby is a GIRL!

OK, now what do I do? You think I didn't know what the hell to do with a boy, I know even less to do with a girl! This is shaping up to be one helluva adventure.

The pictures we got today are pretty fuzzy...she was moving around quite a bit and apparently sleeping on her stomach. Not the best pose from our angle. We'll head back in a month to take more pictures and try to get a shot of her face. We did see feet, spine, heart, brain & other major parts...and they all looked just perfect!

Stay tuned for more details!
