Back when I worked at B-95 in Flint, for whatever reason, my boss and I always greeted each other the same way. Oddly enough, when we call each other on the phone, we still do it. I'll say, "Brian Cleary, ladies and gentlemen!" and he says, "Keith Allen Everybody!" (or vice versa) Our morning guy … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback

Life’s Little Moments
On Friday of last week, we had temperatures in the mid to upper 70's. On Saturday, they were in the upper 30's and low 40's. There was also a lot of wind, so it felt colder than that. This was the first day of soccer for Andrew and me. He was so excited that I … Continue reading Life’s Little Moments
The Music of My Life – Decade Extra – The 1970’s (Part 2)
This is sort of a continuation of the Music of My Life feature. It focused on music from 1970-2025. It featured tunes that have special meaning to me, brought back a certain memory or a tune that I just really like. I found that with the first three decades, there were songs that I didn't … Continue reading The Music of My Life – Decade Extra – The 1970’s (Part 2)

Movie Music Monday – FM

I'm surprised that it hasn't come up already, as it has one of the best movie soundtracks! Version 1.0.0 The … Continue reading Movie Music Monday – FM
I’ve Got Some Very Loyal Friends
In the 1970's, Dean Martin would host celebrity roasts. They would have a man or woman of the hour and stars would get up and roast that person. It was much like the Friar's Club Roasts, but cleaned up for national TV. Roastees included Johnny Carson, Jack Benny, Bob Hope, Jackie Gleason, Frank Sinatra and … Continue reading I’ve Got Some Very Loyal Friends
Book Recommendation – Famous Last Words
A couple years ago, I stumbled on a really good mystery/time travel story - Wrong Place, Wrong Time. It was written by an unfamiliar artist to me named Gillian McAllister. I wrote about the book here. I was excited to hear that a new book from her would hit the shelves in 2025. As soon … Continue reading Book Recommendation – Famous Last Words
Friday Photo Flashback
Today's photos are not only a flashback, but they tie into a current situation as well. You may remember that last fall, Andrew was playing soccer. I say "playing soccer," but it is more of a game oriented introduction to the game. There were days that he loved playing and days that he hated playing. … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback
Life’s Little Moments
We've had a lot going on over the past week. I feel like I am just getting around to settling down. Easter I hope you had a good Easter, if you celebrate.
