I used to write snide condescending Elvis Costello lyrics very tiny at the bottom of the dry erase board in 13's newsroom.
They do this at work-hide these little figurines around the office for employees to find. I have several.
Ok who wants a bizarre no stakes mystery to solve?
I had to go to the hospital by ambulance this morning (heart stuff, am ok now.)
A bunch of ambulance guys came into our living room to get me.
And now we
keep
finding
tiny
glass
ducks
On the floor.

One day i'm going to tell you the story about the night I was coming back from Princeton from wrestling and hit a deer doing 25mph coming down the exit ramp at Paint Creek. I was fully convinced I was going to exit my vehicle and wrestle that damn deer into submission.

62 and a half years of life and never has a cat acted this way towards me. I asked her once if she was a reincarnated girlfriend. Cats just choose people. Yeah? Well why? What made this cat act this way towards me? Great mystery of life.

If America was ever smart enough. Or way less racist. Or way less sexist. Or just not an amalgamation of fuck wits, dumbasses and idiots, then a person who speaks the truth and don't give a fuck who hears it could lead this Country. Its a damn shame we're too motherfucking stupid. Go Jasmine.

Just let everybody go to a Bowl game...5and7 Crappalachia state is going...how about Marshall? They didn't have enough players or a coach last year. Where is the Carolina Belichick and Child Bride Circus going bowling? Someplace with good shopping i hope.

Radio in college, WWCU 91FM, then almost 3 years at WBOB AM in Galax Virginia...edited audio tape with razors, cued 45s and knew how long you could talk before lyrics, read the weather 9 times an hour. Read local obituaries (yeah, how old are YOU?)
Simply put, I got to work WKRP style

Literally the same for me (and for everyone who went through JMC 231 at Marshall through AT LEAST the mid-2000s), even though reel-to-reel was all but banished from the airwaves by that point.
WMUL wasn't running on automation when I was there, but we did have digital audio editing, DigiCarts, etc.

using a razor blade and splice tape to edit audio (which seems like it would be in the below quoted category but it really isn't, you might REPAIR audio tape with that method but you're not editing it that way, ever again)

Just go ahead and kill network commercial television...automate the whole thing. AI News. The whole 9.
There's a new report Fox is working with Paramount, owners of CBS, to take over control of local CBS owned-and-operated stations, without actually purchasing them.
This is how Nexstar & Sinclair grew their empires without exceeding ownership caps. If it happens, all bets are off with broadcast TV.

Super Weenie, Quarrier Street in beautiful downtown Charleston WV, is the only place in the surrounding area you can get a Chicago hot dog. They are delicious! As a person who has eaten Chicago hot dogs in Chicago, I definitely recommend them.

Had to buy a new vape battery. I washed my old one. New one, unbeknownst to me, changes colors with heat. Made the poor guy pick through several until he found a purple one. Few miles down the road, its light blue. I thought i'd gotten the wrong one.

Dumb rant but whatever: So, for the past 3 years Western Carolina University's football team has had a 7 win season. We have not made the playoffs, BUT IF we were an FBS instead of FCS, we'd go to a bowl game of some sorts. Even losing teams who sell tickets go to bowl games.

Ok, so, Motel 6 really probably isn't many peoples first choice, but if you're an AARP member (me) you don't have to check out till 2pm. Good for us late nighters.
