It’s Thanksgiving! Time to see how much we can eat, how much we can drink, how much family dynamics we can handle, how much football we can watch, and do all of it without falling asleep on the couch. I urge everyone to indulge in what makes you feel good. Whether it’s an extra serving of dessert, laughter with loved ones, or even that afternoon nap on the sofa.
This year is a special one, as it’s the first time in probably a decade that my family is getting together for Thanksgiving. Both of my parents and their significant others, my brother and his family, and my in-laws. I have a good feeling that this is going to be a great gathering. As long as nobody talks politics, and the turkey is fully thawed (and doesn’t get overcooked) everything will be perfect.
I’m thankful for a lot of things, including all of you. Thank you for allowing me (and all of us at the station) into your lives every day. We know you have a choice, and the fact that you choose us isn’t something we take lightly. Together, we are the spirit of this community. We couldn’t possibly do this without you. Also, to the great local advertisers who help us pay the bills and keep this valuable local community resource on the air, we are thankful for you as well. On behalf of all of us, Happy Thanksgiving!

It’s Getting a Bit Thin Up There!
When I was a kid, my hair was so thick, the stylist would have to use thinning shears. If only I had a dollar for every time I heard, “You’ll never have to worry about a lack of hair!” Um, yeah. My first thought is how the passing of time can be so cruel. I’m […]

27 Year Old vs 58 Year Old?
If you’re like most people, you’re hoping to see Iron Mike knock Jake Paul out tonight. There’s a certain nostalgia to seeing Mike Tyson enter the ring. After all, he’s arguably the greatest boxer that’s ever lived. His record is incredible. But with the passage of time comes age, and with age comes deficits. A […]

The Habit I Cannot Break!
This blog is going to get a bit personal. You’ve been warned! Some habits are tough to break. Some are downright impossible. 22 years ago, I quit smoking. That was a huge accomplishment. 12 years ago, I got healthy and lost over 50 lbs. Another huge accomplishment for me. I know this is gross, and […]
