Happy Halloween!! While I don't always plan ahead what I am going to blog about until a day or so before, today's Halloween Blog was something I planned on writing about a few months ago. I was reminded of the topic after listening to one of the shows I did with my partner, Rob, on … Continue reading For the Record: Famous Monsters Speak
What’s Up, Doc?
This week I found out that the doctor's office where my primary care doctor practices is going private. To be honest, this is the first time I have ever had this happen. They offered all of the current patient's the option to stay with the practice - at a cost. So for $90 a month, … Continue reading What’s Up, Doc?

“Christmastown”
Friday, October 25 marked the 13th anniversary of my mother's passing. My brother came up from Ohio to spend the weekend in Michigan. We got to see him a couple days, then he met up with his best friend, and then he stopped by and saw my dad. He arrived in Michigan on the Thursday … Continue reading “Christmastown”
Thanks for calling!
When I worked in radio full time, I never considered myself a "star". I was a guy who worked on the radio trying to make a living. I was always humbled (and amused) when someone would come up to me and ask for an autograph. I would often chuckle when they asked, because I'm not … Continue reading Thanks for calling!
Back in Time?
All writers get writer's block. I am hardly a "writer", but sometimes stare at the blank page and wonder what to write about. Since I began blogging, I have stumbled on blogs written by others who share some of the same interests as me. I have followed blogs that feature movies, TV, music, nostalgia, positive … Continue reading Back in Time?
Halloween Dress Up
Tonight on ABC, one of the greatest Halloween specials of all time aired again - It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown. It is in this special that poor Charlie Brown utters those sad words, "I got a rock." In that scene, Lucy is wearing a witch mask. It got me to thinking about Halloweens of … Continue reading Halloween Dress Up
Three Birthday Tributes
Today I would like to salute three of my closest friends. I guess, in a way, I am taking the easy way out by including all three of them in one blog. I am doing it this way because they all celebrate birthdays this month. So here are some thoughts on three great guys. Joe … Continue reading Three Birthday Tributes
Favorite Films – The 90’s
This blog is a continuation of a series I started a week or so ago. Somebody had the idea to post a list was to consist of your favorite films from each year of your life. So, you start with your birth year and move ahead year by year and list all the films from … Continue reading Favorite Films – The 90’s
Happy Hallmark Holiday
One of my favorite characters on TV is Ron Swanson from Parks and Recreation. He is played by Nick Offerman. Do a search for "Ron Swanson quotes" and I promise you will chuckle. One of his quotes will be adapted a bit for this blog. "Birthdays were invented by Hallmark to sell cards." His deadpan … Continue reading Happy Hallmark Holiday
