Ex-radio guy, now IT guy. Probably not very interesting.

While Disney and Google try to drown each other in a pissing match, this setup, maybe less than glamorous, gets almost 30 channels, including ABC.

Tuxedo cat in dog toy box

I met an impossibly sweet tuxedo cat about five years ago. She followed the dog and me over 2 miles home on a walk, set up in my backyard for several weeks, and always came back.

In a head-to-head, Coach Cantley would probably lose that contest!

Tried to track him down and found out he died about three years ago at 61. I shouldn't have been surprised. He was HUGE!

One of my old high school teachers won an oyster eating contest. At the end, quite-a-few people were throwing up and just about everybody was moving a lot more slowly from being stuffed. He stood up and said, "Anyone got a doggie bag?"

Read a survey that rated Oklahoma as the third kinkiest state for Halloween costumes. To my Oklahoma friends tired of being last in everything, you can take comfort in being a leader in one area. With a little more effort, you might even be able to take first next year!

While I don't believe circumcision causes autism, I have little doubt that the male brain is controlled below the waist!

I thought the movie "Her" sucked rocks through a straw, but it almost seems ahead of its time now.

(I actually thought it could've, and should've, been a very funny movie about a guy who falls in love with an operating system and doesn't realize it. That he knew all along ruined it, IMHO.)

BTW - Donโ€™t know if you remember, but this was what The City was a few iterations earlier. The format moved to 107.3 in 1992.

BTW - Prior to The City, KC had smooth jazz for a couple years in the late 80โ€™s. 98.9 was KCWV โ€œThe Wave.โ€ It became KRVK โ€œThe Riverโ€ in 1989 before becoming โ€œThe Rockโ€ in โ€˜92.

I loved 106.5 The City, too! Used to set my alarm to it. The only thing I didnโ€™t like was that it would totally put me to sleep at work.

Funny part is, it only went off-air a couple years ago. If you had an HD Radio, you could hear it in all its glory, but no people and few commercials.

I also don't think Gruden is interested enough in the college game to want to coach there, but stranger things have happened.

It's like the plot of Django Unchained. You don't go after the coach you can get. You go after the one you can't get first!

I think it's more that the college game is just different. I keep telling my friends at Arkansas that they might not want Jon Gruden as much as they think they do.

I agree, however, with your first point. Belichick should seriously consider re-retiring.

Walked around downtown Columbia last night and didnโ€™t get robbed, assaulted, shot, or stabbed. Should I ask for a refund?

So, this idiot cut me off in traffic, took exception to my driving, and decided he was going to follow me to work and confront me. After he followed me into the parking lot, he would seem to have had a quick change of heart and chickened out when he saw all the cop cars!

I believe Rincon also bought KHQA when it bought KTVO.

If I had a nickel for every rapture prediction in my lifetime, Iโ€™d only have a dollar or two, but having that much in nickels would be really weird.

Salary cap factors in, too, but that is 100% a Veach issue.

When someone wins you three Super Bowls in five years, you cut him some slack, but this doesnโ€™t look like the previous five yearsโ€™ teams.
