I have a rule: Off air means off record. That being said, I had an interesting discussion with someone regarding why marijuana should remain illegal for recreational use in Idaho. Their simple reasoning, which I've heard before, "We can't handle the legal drugs we have now. Why introduce another?" Makes sense to a point. People…… MORE
Remembering Jerry
Jerry Coleman was an interesting guy. And I hate to say that, because if you never met Jerry Coleman, you're not going to now. He died Sunday at the age of 89. Jerry Coleman was many things during his lifetime. He was a decorated war hero who achieved the Army rank of Lieutenant Colonel. He…… MORE
Santa Facts
Since I have to work on Christmas Eve, I decided to make it fun. So, I am tracking Santa on NORAD. I'm confused though. Santa was in Cambodia and then China. Do they even celebrate Christmas? Plus, he is moving awfully fast. I've seen The Santa Clause with Tim Allen and I know that…… MORE
BSU – Oregon State
Craig Robinson is a reasonably famous person. First of all, he's the head basketball coach at Oregon State University. In the early 1980's he was a two-time Ivy League player of the year at Princeton. But he's probably most famous because of his sister, Michelle. Like her brother Craig, Michelle Robinson graduated with top grades…… MORE
Along Came A Spider
Just the other day I almost died and I will tell you exactly why. I was getting ready for work on a Monday morning. I woke up at 3:30 super tired and barely able to keep my eyes open. I proceeded to do my usual routine in the morning though. I turned on the shower without…… MORE
Christmas Time
It's Christmas time and it certainly feels like winter. I absolutely love the holidays, especially Christmas. Now I didn't take part in the Black Friday shopping but i did go shopping for presents the day after and still got some great deals. All of my shopping is done and most of my DIY gifts are…… MORE
Still Feeling The Blue
Even in this down year for Boise State Football, the Bronco flag is out there. While driving to Portland the other day, I stopped for gas in Stanfield, oregon. Stanfield is out in the middle of nowhere. After gassing up the car, a display of football hats caught my eye. These hats were camouflage units…… MORE
Going Bowling?
Not a lot of people know this, but the NCAA doesn't recognize an official national champion in the Division 1 Football Bowl Subdivision. That's the subdivision Boise State is in. And so are Alabama and Notre Dame and more than 120 other teams. The BCS, or Bowl Championship Series, crowns a champion every year, but…… MORE
San Diego State And History
Fifty years ago this weekend, John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas. San Diego State University existed in 1963 as San Diego State College and had been a California state institution for about forty years. However, until 1963, San Diego State had never awarded a doctorate. The school had both the faculty and the…… MORE
Yippee Ki Yay
Last week on the radio I talked about the University of Wyoming campus and about a large, grassy area on campus known as "Prexy's Pasture". I thought the origin of the name was funny and very representative of the state of Wyoming. "Prexy" is short for "president", and "Prexy's Pasture" was an area designated more…… MORE
