My stuff isn't going to be auctioned off (thanks, RH.)

Ratings came back....number one mornings in every demo. Number one mornings 12+, too. Yay. Now on with the fight. Long way to go yet. Gotta get the music right. Get the rest of the day to number one, too.

Although modesty has compelled me to remain silent so far, now it can be told--I won the Above and Beyond Award for the YEAR for FM North at our recent awards banquet. In front of the owner, TR and everyone. Got a warm reception. It was a good feeling.

Signed up for guitar lessons. Gonna finally learn to play. Hopefully.

So far at Spiece, since my birthday, I've lost 64 pounds. 50 or so to go. More salad and grilled chicken, anyone?

Nubs are good. The youngest went flying in a four-seat Cessna last weekend...and may have caught the bug. Gotta love the Young Eagles program. The oldest one is doing well, too.

Now if I can figure out how to pay for flight school.....

I understand the boys' obsession with Carmen Electra and Dave Navarro (well, I don't understand the obsession with Dave, but whatever.) So when I saw that Carmen was featured in the latest issue of Loaded magazine, I looked until i found some pics. Here, then is Carmen Electra--for the boys.

Giving Back To The Community.

And in a related topic, I've decided to volunteer as a tutor. There's nothing more satisfying than knowing you've helped to impart knowledge to others; and hopefully I'll be able to work closely with the students and make a personal connection, and truly impact their lives. Here's the photo on the poster that convinced me that these poor neglected students need and deserve my one-on-one attention and support......



Ok....so maybe I'm just gonna hang around the IPFW library and check out the chicks. Is that so bad?

Today's Strange News Update With Richard Limburger.

From The Wisconsin Rapids Daily Tribune.


Authorities blocked a portion of traffic at about 4 p.m. Monday on the Riverview Expressway, near First Street South, after a truck dumped animal carcasses and parts on the road.
A Daily Tribune staff member described the smell near the road as a "horrendous odor."
As of Monday evening, investigators had not identified how this happened or who was responsible, said Wisconsin Rapids Police Lt. Dave Wesener.
"We got a partial description of the vehicle, but did not locate it," he said.
Officials believe the truck came from Two Rivers and was on its way to Minnesota, Wesener said. He checked across the state, but heard no reports of similar incidents Monday.
Westbound traffic on the expressway was forced to use the left turn lane to get around the mess, Wesener said. He was pleased that drivers slowed down and were courteous to each other as they merged into one lane during peak traffic time.
The Wisconsin Rapids Street Department brought in a front-end loader to clear the carcasses and parts from the scene. They were able to scrape the pavement clean, Wesener said.
"They really did a good job cleaning it up," he said.

I was okay with this story until the line....'scrape the pavement clean'.......

A Thought For The Day.

Husband and wife are waiting at the bus stop with their nine children. Ablind man joins them after a few minutes. When the bus arrives, they find it overloaded and only the wife and thenine kids are allowed onto the bus. So the husband and the blind man decide to walk. After a while, the husband gets irritated by the ticking of the stick of the blind man as he taps it on the sidewalk, and says to him, "Why don't you put a piece of rubber at the end of your stick? That ticking sound is driving me crazy." The blind man replies, "If you would've put a rubber at the end of YOUR stick, we'd be riding the bus ... so shut the hell up.

Can't Wait For The Olympics.

The Winter Olympics are coming up! From Torino, Italy, where the greatest athletes in the world get together and compete for the elusive gold medals. Although I'm not a fan of wintertime, I AM a fan of winter sports; and recently attended the local tryouts for the USA Winter Olympic team. That's right...just like Jeopardy and American Idol, the Olympics have resorted to cattle call auditions to get participants. That's not to belittle anyone that came out to the Soap Box Derby track to show off their skills....on the contrary, the slopes were awash in local talent....as seen here...LET THE GAMES BEGIN!!

Super Bowl Trivia. (Or, Another Reason Why The Browns Suck.)

From the Cincinatti Enquirer.

Seattle's NFC title has reduced to six the number of NFL teams never to reach the Super Bowl.
They are Houston (expansion team in 2002), New Orleans, Arizona, Detroit, Jacksonville and Cleveland.
Each of those cities, except Cleveland, has hosted a Super Bowl. So that makes Cleveland the only NFL city never to have appeared in or hosted a Super Bowl.

Cleveland defenders point to Indianapolis. Though the Colts franchise appeared in the Super Bowl when it existed in Baltimore, it hasn't qualified for the big game since its move to Indianapolis in 1984.
