Aloha from Washington DC 
People we knew in Hawaii. We’ll just call them David and Becky. He was a captain in the navy and she a stay-at-home mom and both living in Navy housing near Peral Harbor. At that time they had a four-year-old daughter who often played with our three-year-old. We lived in a townhouse up the wayContinue reading “Aloha from Washington DC ”
Shakey’s pizza went down
It was a Saturday June 8, 1974. I had just gone on the air at radio station KXXO in Tulsa. My shift started just before six PM. The news services teletypes were clicking and dinging .

Woo Haa, what a guy
The candidate of the truck drivers and Roller Derby skaters won tonight.
A one word vocabulary.
Awesome. Pardon my sarcastic judgement but I am often amused when eating out at some restaurants. It is almost entertaining when some female waitperson serve our table. It seems like most female servers wait on our table they speak with a little girl tone, I would guess, a full octave above their normal speakingContinue reading “A one word vocabulary.”
You mean I have to read the thing?
Newspaper shrinkage. As you have noticed newspapers are becoming smaller. Fewer pages. Fewer articles. Reduced sections. Some papers have eliminated two days of the week. Some stopped printing the Monday and Tuesday issues. Some papers resemble my smaller old “Weekly Reader” from grade school. Some newspapers are so small these days they could easily beContinue reading “You mean I have to read the thing?”
Book Report: Nina and RBG.
Book Report Being a long time NPR listener, I first remember fearing the author of this biography reporting on the Iran/Contra controversy during the Reagan Administration. She and her NPR colleague Daniel Schorr reported on this event. She inappropriately described an Episcopal priest testifying at the hearing as a reverend “wearing his priest uniform withContinue reading “Book Report: Nina and RBG.”
