I have spent more than 60 per cent of my life at this 50,000 watt radio station. Needless to say, during my long tenure, I have made some lasting and rewarding friendships. I received a letter this week from Linda Stehlik of Troy, Montana. Troy is in Montana's back country. Linda referred to a letter…… MORE
The Dog Days Of February
At the end of January, a new face joined my family. Her name is Ginger. Ginger is a rescue dog from Idaho. She is a 10-year-old weiner dog who's owner passed away while in a retirement home. Ginger was left in the home and treated very badly. Once she came to our house and met…… MORE
Doing The Right Thing
Should the state fine a business if they refuse a customer upon religious beliefs? No. Should anyone be forced to do something they'd consider harmful? No. Should non-emergency medical treatment be delayed or denied to a patient based upon the caregivers religious beliefs? No. Should that professional face scrutiny regarding their decision to deny or…… MORE
The Password Is…….
My memory isn't as good as it used to be, but I think it's because I have a much wider variety of things I'm supposed to remember than I did when I was a kid. At the age of 11, I could have told you the batting average of every baseball player in the major…… MORE
Low Winter Sun
I read last week that most of the mental defects, bi polarism, ADD, and SAD were just re made up by doctors to sell pills and treatments. I know from my own experience that this is not true. I have suffered from SAD (seasonal affected disorder) since I was in college. Short dark winter days…… MORE
“Pop” Goes The World
I'm normally not a subscriber to the idea of: "If we paid as much attention to (insert pop culture topic) as we did to (insert serious news topic), then we'd be better off as a society. But I've heard plenty, infact, too much about Richard Sherman and Justin Beiber. Why are these topics being covered…… MORE
Lone Survivor
Over the weekend I went to see the movie Lone Survivor. It was a very difficult movie to watch, because it was based on a true story. The movie starts off with 4 amazing characters, the names in the film were actually the soldier's names. The movie was full of love, hate, victory, and just plain sadness. The way…… MORE
The Tax Man
Just found out today that the state of Idaho says that it will take 7 weeks to process your refund if you file ELECTRONICALLY! If you owe the state money, you still have to pay on time. All this technology has gotten us nowhere. Idaho Tax Commission, poor excuse!… MORE
Let’s All Go To The Movies
I love movies. But I don't love to spend money. Not my own money, anyway. So I rarely set foot inside a movie theatre. In fact, I think the last movie I went to was Disney's "A Christmas Carol" in 2009. I didn't like it. That having been said, I still do watch a lot…… MORE
Be True To Your School
There is currently a movement underway in Idaho for Pre-K education. I can remember when the first grade was the first grade, the first year your child attended school. Then kindergarten came along, making the first grade the second grade. Now certain factions want the first grade to actually be the third grade. I am…… MORE
