The results from the MRI are in. It’s definitely a serious health concern. The Chiari Malformation, for those just joining us, is where the base of the brain puts pressure on the spinal cord. In discussing the matter with me today my doctor indicated that, if untreated, this could result in me losing the ability … Continue reading Tales Of Twitch: Part 4 of a 286-Part Series
Today was MRI day. A few days ago I ran into a dear friend and former co-worker while out shopping. She’d had an MRI a while back, and described to me her experience. (Most of the description had to do with her being very, very claustrophobic, which I am not.) But she did note that … Continue reading Tales Of Twitch: Part 3 of a 286-Part Series
Being completely honest, 2019 has been a bit of a pill thus far. Which, to be fair, 2018 was a blockbuster. Three concerts, great Vegas trip, wonderful plays with the Main Street Players…a truly awesome year. But 2019? My medical issues have been a constant belltone in the background of everyday life. I spent February … Continue reading Countdown To Hollywood!
Let me tell you about my friend Tracey. We worked for old man Claus up at the North Pole back in the early ’90s. She sang and danced. I perpetuated fraud on small children by pretending to be a talking Christmas tree. Tracey brought me Readers Digests so I had something to read on rainy … Continue reading The Recycled Rainbow Connection
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
How do you make a silly commercial? Well, first you get copy points–the sales information that needs to be included in the commercial. (Or maybe you don’t. In this case we didn’t…this client likes our silly commercials, bless them, and wanted another one using the same information as the last one.) Next is the script. … Continue reading Anatomy Of A Silly Commercial: “Great Moments/Edison”
Everyone else is binging series on Amazon Prime, Netflix, Hulu, etc etc. I’m binging “Make Room For Daddy”. (Later retitled “The Danny Thomas Show.”) Except it’s not really binge-viewing, because the channel I get it on only airs two episodes a week, every Monday morning at 3:00am. (I DVR it and watch it when I … Continue reading I Am Obsessed With “Make Room For Daddy”
For a few years now I’ve taken on the challenge of creating cover photos for the ol’ K-Cow. I create covers for our weekend syndicated shows, to depict our music format, and to promote special programs. I’d like to think I’m getting better at it. It’s a unique challenge to use that specifically sized real … Continue reading Le Gallery De Cover Photos
