Radio Station Update

After getting the run-around from Audacity and my local talk radio station personnel, I finally tweeted the program host who drew my name out of the hat for the weekly gift card giveaway.  The producer tweeted back with an email address to contact him with my information. Looks like it’s been taken care of.  Within […]

I won a $50 gift certificate to Capt’n Chucky’s from a local radio station over three weeks ago, and never received it.  Calls to the radio station people to politely inquire about it just give me the run-around, telling me to email so-and-so, which I’ve done twice with no response. But, a lot of us […]

JFC on a Crutch

I listen to talk radio on weekdays.  One of the hosts poses a daily question that he wants listeners to answer.  Today’s question was who would you hire to front your company in an ad?  Most people went with brawny actors.  I went with Betty White, because nobody dislikes her. Both the producer and 6he […]

Hurricane Ida

Wow.  That thing blew through yesterday.  I would have thought that after it swung through 1500 miles on land, it would have just dumped a lot of rain on us.  It did all that, plus a whole lot more.  The tornadoes it spawned did hit within a couple of miles of our area, but missed […]
