Birthday Blessings
Saturday March 14th, 2009 - Vernon Hills, IL Oh-oh. Youth and all it’s magic is quickly slipping away. Now I’ll have to rely on guile and trickery to get myself over and that’s a scary thought. Today is my 46th birthday and it isn’t going to get any prettier.......Read More

The Ideas Of March
Sunday March 15th, 2009 - Milwaukee, WI/Kenosha, WI Up to Milwaukee today for a birthday brunch with my cousin Brett. His birthday was in February but he’s still a Pisces so we rolled it into one and went to Pandl’s for a big feast. I still think they have one of the best......Read More

TV Or Not TV
Monday March 16th, 2009 - Chicago, IL No appearance on the Late Late Show tonight and the only one who doesn’t seem upset about it is me. I’m getting calls from all over the country from people who said they were looking for my name and didn’t see it. Hey, I don’t run......Read More

This Little Piggy Went To Marketing
Tuesday March 17th, 2009 - Chicago, IL St. Patrick’s Day and I think I’m the only sober life form within 100 miles of where I’m sitting. It’s yet another booze fueled holiday that allows idiots to drink too much and puke in public. While everyone else was chasing......Read More

Ready To Race
Wednesday March 18th, 2009 - Lake Villa, IL A race car driver can’t win any races if he’s his own pit crew. That’s what I feel like as I look over my options as to what I should do next in my life and career. There are way too many things I’d love to delve into but I......Read More

Climbing Mt. Never-Rest
Friday March 20th, 2009 - Lake Villa, IL Today I climbed Mt. Never-rest. That’s the huge pile of emails that keeps growing and growing and never seems to stop. I do what I can to get caught up and then other things in life slide in and take me out of the groove and before I know it......Read More

Back In The Loop
Saturday March 21st, 2009 - Rosemont, IL/Chicago, IL I think by far the best reward I’ve received from my time in the radio business is the big list of lasting friends I’ve made no matter where I’ve been. I’ve had full time jobs all over the country from Lansing, MI......Read More

Magnificent Monday Magic
Monday March 23rd, 2009 - Chicago, IL Some days everything works. Other days everything doesn’t. Today started one way and ended up the other. I woke up at 5:15am and was supposed to catch my train into Chicago at 5:26. I flew out of bed and dressed as fast as I could and started......Read More
