Holiday Shopping is in Full Swing

I think I saw the first big, full-blown display of Christmas trees and snow globes and dancing elves in a store around September 15th. That’s pure madness! But after I stopped fighting it in my head, I let my excited 4-year old drag me into that section of the store and we both picked up a snow globe and shook it

Greatest Unknown Holiday of the Year Arrives Tomorrow

Usually I don't get so emotional that tears free flow from my eyes, but there are those solemn events in one's life that necessitate a good cry, and for me, there is no better day -- than tomorrow.

Please share your love with me when I tell you that this "holiday" is so extra special, that I'm planning a personal celebration here at the radio station. No R.S.V.P. required. You are all invited to attend and become my special guests, so long as you bring your own food & drink (no alcohol please - at least not during business hours).

Better bring your own folding chair too; and a napkin just in case you spill.

Just one requirement though before entering the building, and that is you must come in costume as your favorite Classic Rocker. No prizes will be handed out, but if we can't figure out "who you are", we will laugh at you uncontrollably.

Holiday Weekend Means Texans Hit the Road

Triple A says more than 34 million Americans will drive more than 50 miles from home over the three day Memorial Day weekend. In Texas, that's 2.8 million people clogging up the roads. And your plans?

My family plans to skip the road trip and do something totally different....backyard camping! Many of my friends have been doing it lately with their kids and posting the pics on Facebook. I'm inspired to try it. Apparently all we have to do to have backyard fun is haul the sleeping bags outside and pitch a tent back there, and save the cost of admission to a park. It is pretty smart. You have your own private space with no wayward frisbees finding their way into your business, and all the conveniences like showers and toilets stay within just a few steps. AND, you don't have to lug that heavy cooler either, with frosty beverages in the fridge nearby.

If you do hit the road this weekend, know the police will be watching CLOSELY for wrong moves.
