K-LOVE: Radio Listening Even I Can Love
I’ve been listening to a lot of radio lately. Yeah, I know. Big deal. I work for a bunch of radio stations, so I listen to the radio all the time, right? Okay, true confessions time. No, I don’t listen to the radio all the time. I listen to the radio when I have to. [...]
Conquering The Vortex
Every now and then when I have to run into work after hours—just for a second, a quick in-and-out where you’d leave the car running if you weren’t paranoid about having it stolen—Sharon will say, “Don’t get caught in The Vortex” as I’m walking out the door.

About “The N Word”
Everyone’s been buzzing this week about Dr. Laura Schlessinger’s decision to bail out of broadcast radio following that over-publicized “N-word” boo-boo on her nationally syndicated program.

On Don Imus and Racial Slurs
I’ve been biting my tongue and slapping my hands ever since the flap with Don Imus and his comment about the Rutgers women’s basketball team hit the news. Well, okay, I haven’t been biting my tongue, as my wife will surely attest. But, the time has come when I’ve got to speak my mind through [...]
By the way, Cingular 3G is live in Little Rock!
I actually discovered that Cingular’s 3G HSDPA data service was up and running a while back, and verified that it was there (testing if nothing else) when I got the new Dell Latitude D820 with its built-in HSDPA card. It worked pretty well back then, and it’s still working well today. The difference is that [...]
