The weekend of December 2, 2007
Fiance Jenn and I snuck off to the
tropical paradise of Bend, Oregon
and got married.  Don't ask me how
I got so lucky and married above my
own genus and species.  She is the
most amazing person I have ever
met and I am the luckiest person on
Earth.  Don't blow it for me though,
if you see us out in public--she thinks
I have royalty in my lineage and will
eventually come into money. Thank-
you very much for the emails, gifts
and wishes of congratulations. 
We appreciate it...
you  know,  my wife and I.

It's Great to be in Oregon again!                                                      I grew up in Eugene.  Went to Kennedy Middle and Churchill High after that. I started the whole radio thing at a station called KSND, back in the day.  After stints in Monterey, California and San Francisco I headed east and southward to New Orleans.  There I did the tour of radio stations and restaurants.  B97, Mix 104, 105.3 The Zone, Diva 92.3, Jacques-Imo's, Napoleon House and Pascal Manales, to name a few.

Great city.  Great people.  Too many hurricanes.

                                 

It doesn't look like much now but our house was fantastic.  My first home as a home-owner and we only had two more rooms and the kitchen to re-finish before Katrina came a calling. We had bought the house eleven months before from the original owner, an incredible woman named Rita.  Even though she is in her 90's she volunteered taking care of many animals after the storm.  Before Katrina I didn't sweat it when hurricanes came.  It meant long hours at the station and hurricane parties.  I don't quite feel that way anymore.  

                          

When we evacuated and our house, which was a half-mile from a levee, was under twelve feet of water for a month I felt like it was left wondering where everybody went.  It had such a great vibe and we deeply loved that house.  Hurricanes suck.  There's no gettin around that.  Appreciate what we have here in Oregon.  It's all good.  Mostly.

His name is Josh Daugherty.  He's from Eugene.
He's a "working actor" in Hollywood--although
don't let that stop you from helping with the
hook-up.  He needs a girl not in the biz who's
down to earth and, possibly, outdoorsey!

DEM' HOGANS IS CLOSE!
Is the media overreacting to the Hulkster touching his daughter's derriere?
: Yes. HER Glutimus looks like an old car--he's just being a good dad!
: No. It is INDEED creepy!
: The whole thing would be settled if they had used me to apply the lotion in the basket!




  AIR FAIR?

WEIGH IN ON THE TOPIC:
Should airlines charge according to a passenger's weight?
: YES. It is fair. They need more revenue somehow. Sorry.
: NO. We can't single-out the heftier people. We need to look elsehwere for mo' money.

Her: What do you have when you
        have a brown chickena nd brown cow ?

 It was Earth Day!
Shouldn't it always be EARTH DAY?
   
   Does Earth look funny to you? 
If somebody stayed at your house and went to
the bathroom in your bedroom, trashed it
continuously and worked on their engine on
your living room floor-would you ask them back?

I took the test and got a pathetic 38.

HOW 'BOUT THEM NEW ORLEANS HORNETS?

                          

I worked two seasons with the New Orleans
Hornets and had an absolute blast! This year
Chris Paul and the team was stupid-good.  I would 
be ecstatic if they were to pull it off this year
and become NBA CHAMPS. That city would freak. 
                    GOOOOOOOOOOO HORNETS!!!!!






DO YOU MAKE ENUFF?
For what you do, occupation-wise, and
it's importance to society--are you fairly
compensated? It's not "I want more money!" 

Do you make enough?
With your job and what you are paid---are you fairly compensated?
: I make more than I should. Shhhhh.
: I can't complain. It's about right.
: I am not paid close to what I am worth.
How do you get by?
If you are barely making it-- how do you make ends meet (or try to get them close)?
: Help from family.
: Help from the Government.
: I have multiple jobs.
: A little of

Teachers, members of law enforcement,
and others, crucial to society, constantly
have to struggle to "stay above water."
Thank Goodness there are people that have
hearts and are there to help and serve and
aren't just tryin' to make a buck.  But--
they should be getting a little more help!

Does Eugene need
diversity training?
Were getting national attention for a group
at the University of Oregon that is offering
diversity training to prepare Eugeneans for
this summer's Olympic Trials. It's not for people
to brush up on their knowledge of the steeplechase.
These classes will teach people how to
"talk" with African Americans that will be here.
Some of the things that are being taught are:
don't assume every black person is here for the
track meet and don't "shadow" a black shopper
who is browsing in your store.

Not everybody needs the class but for those
souls that do...I hope they get the details
on the "when and where!"

Diversity Training in Eugene
Is this a needed education we need in Eugene?
: Yes. It's unfortunate but some need to be reminded.
: No. People are overreacting. Give us credit.

I'll never forget an experience I had at a 
comedy club I was working at in California.
A comic from the south was telling me
about the most racist people he had encountered
on his tours.  "Alabama or Louisiana?" I asked. 
"Without a doubt--Oregon!" he said. 
I couldn't believe it.  Very eye-opening.


THOMAS BEATIE OF BEND,
A MOTHER?  IT HAPPENED!


Mr Beatie, who used to be a woman, is
a mother.  She's been featured on the
Oprah show and talks openly about her
life as a gender-changing dudette in
Bend, Oregon.

House Party Poll:
What is your take on this family?
: FREAK SHOW! I feel for the child.
: Yay for them. It's everybody's right!
: They should have gone about it another way!
: I don't believe it is a real situation.

DOG LOVERS OR BONKERS?
A British couple loved their dogs so much
when they passed on--they couldn't part
with Penny and Kara. They made them into
sweaters.  Don't believe me--look for y'self!


Umm. I love my dog-ters Bailey and Cassidy
but I'm not wearing them later in life. Am I a
bad dad?This couple still wear their dogs--
even many years later. Does it make a
difference that Samoyed hair is waterproof
and keeps you toasty warm? No.

Can you relate?
Is the wearing of your dead pooch a little wacky or a poetic and practical tribute?
: Totally creepy!
: Get over it Robo. It's just fur.
