Sometimes a man just needs to fix something! It matters not that it is something his wife has ask him to fix for months. The victory is still as sweet. I am such a man. I have pulled off a fix of historic proportions.

I was very fortunate to grow up in a big family. I have two brothers and two sisters. I was also blessed to have both parents there my entire childhood. I really had a story book childhood. I thought I would share some old Christmas pictures with you.

You know that one day your kids are going to grow up an leave. It does not make it any easier when they do.

Stop fights before they begin. On this Sunday .... I am going to step up to the pulpit and give you a new "evil word" and it is "all."

State Trooper James Anderson is a regular at our studios. He keeps us informed on what Troop D is up to. While he was at the studios this morning I ask him if I could try out his radar gun. Here is the result.

Each week I get to listen to hours of great Classic Hits on 92.9 The Lake's Mid-Day show. I like to pick a favorite set fo the week and find the videos from those songs; then share them with you. Here is this week's set. We segued from the ten a.m. hour into the first half of the 11 a.m. hour with this set back on Thursday 3/13/14.

So yesterday I was so excited! I love to fish and finding an app that helps me find fish seemed so great! I gladly paid the $4.99 for the FishFinder App. I downloaded it and installed it on my phone. I went over to the lake to try it out.  It seemed to work well at first; but there was something fishy about it.

I have the greatest job in the world. God has blessed my life with the gift of music; and lots of it! It's never an easy task ; but each week I like to pick my favorite thirty minute music set from one day in the past week on 92.9 The Lake.

When you play music for four hours everyday it is really hard to pick your favorite five in a row from the week. I picked these because of the variety involved. I hope you'll like this set from Monday 2/12/14.

I am very fortunate to have been married to a wonderful and beautiful woman for over 25 years. It is very nice to be out of the dating scene; but I used to be there. I was stood up more than any man in history (it seemed.) I also had some really bad dates. There is nothing like a being stood up or like what happened in the following story to completely blow a man's ego.

I am a huge fan of Jib Jab. You may remember the Lake crew's Christmas card. Well now my wife and I are doing "I Got You Babe" by Sonny and Cher. Hope you enjoy.

Life is all about new experiences. Tomorrow I do something I have never done before. Sure I have spoke in front of large groups; but I have never spoke about my fight with cancer. I will do that for the first time tomorrow.
