At the very end of 2018, I returned to work from Christmas vacation and had a very stressful day or two. There was just a lot of stuff piled up and some minor office drama on top of it…and I noticed my left eye was twitching. Just a little facial tic of the variety lots … Continue reading Botox Boy
This has been an unusual week for me. Most of the radio work I do falls under the category of what the BBC calls “light entertainment”. (That’s British Broadcasting Corporation, not Box Butte County.) I host a morning show where I do cheesy impersonations, make semi-humorous remarks and give airtime to a fictional basement-dweller. I … Continue reading Serious Radio, and Serious Idiocy
Today’s blog post is a double feature. First: we did two new commercials today for Alliance’s beloved Dairy Queen. Alliance’s Dairy Queen is beloved because their burgers and fries are awesome, their employees are swell, and they do a Free Cone Day every year. Now, on Free Cone Day one might think it enough to … Continue reading New Commercials & “Crack Or No Crack?”
Ladies and gentlemen…me! Continue reading On Location at Denver International Airport…
Today’s summation: Nobody knows anything. Least of which me. On Friday I got a call from UC Health Denver. The referral on my Chiari had been made. Apparently a referral in medical parlance means very little more than, “Here’s the name and number of a guy who needs your help.” Because the nice lady from … Continue reading Tales Of Twitch: Part 11 Etc.

No neurosurgery took place; it was the medical equivalent of a “meet and greet.” I met a neurosurgeon; a kind, thoughtful gentleman who discussed my case, my medical history, and asked lots of questions about my childhood medical issues. Then we … Continue reading Tales of Twitch: Part 7 Etc.
Tonight I watched “Perry Como’s Music Hall”, a DVD just released by the fine people at MPI Home Video. I compliment them effusively because this is their third Perry Como DVD, with combined sales of (guestimate on my part) 23 copies. Bless you, MPI. And bless “Dark Shadows”, which has a loyal enough fanbase to … Continue reading Sing For Me Mr. C!
This morning I set the appointment for my MRI. Later this morning they called to reschedule. Such is life. Same day, but earlier. They asked if I was claustrophobic and I heard myself say, “Not unnecessarily so”, which is just about as useless an answer as one could give. The truth is, I’m really not … Continue reading Tales Of Twitch: Part 2 of a 286-Part Series
(Okay, so I’m the team. “Team Coverage” just sounds impressive on local TV news.) Tonight at Newberry’s in Alliance, Kalin Krohe Reference (backed by Raging Derelicts members Derek Johnson and Darin Jelinek) gave a live demonstration of the increasing complexity and dimension of his original music. Copies of “Neon Halos” were selling briskly at the … Continue reading Team Coverage Of “Neon Halos” Album Release Party
