Time to Remember
Mental Floss magazine has one of the more entertaining feeds on Twitter. Today they posted a link with “10 Things to Remember About Memorial Day” that I immediately “re-tweeted.” As a former northerner, I didn’t know that the southern states … Continue reading
Hey, Good Morning
Certain guests in my radio career made me want to do something out of the ordinary to prepare for their arrival. When Julia Child was coming to KLOS, I wanted to feed her. When Captain Kangaroo was coming, I wanted … Continue reading
Set Free
Gary Coleman scared the bejesus out of Brian Phelps one morning. The diminutive former child-star had gone along with my plan to hide inside a box at KLOS. As you can imagine, the stunt took a bit of planning. My … Continue reading
Darn Tootin’
There was a stretch in my career when I had to give depositions in one lawsuit after another. The lawyers preparing me for the questioning told me to only answer exactly what was asked. If the opposition asked a yes … Continue reading

Four years ago my daughter helped organize a “Lost” viewing party for that season’s finale episode. As the show wraps up tonight, she will be doing it again. Throughout the afternoon, she has been sending me picture messages with some … Continue reading
If U Cn Rd Ths Msg
Mentions of coffee seem to turn up regularly on the social media sites I use. I’m as guilty as the people whose Twitter feeds I read. I “follow” at least four purveyors of coffee, hoping to hear about freebies and … Continue reading
Stop Callin’
Young customers at Big Ed’s Pizza are allowed to use the restaurant’s phone to call home for a ride. The old-timey telephone has been there since before their parents, and possibly grandparents, were even born. While I was there on … Continue reading
Roofies
A woman walking alongside me during the Kids Helping Kids Fun Walk wanted some advice on marketing her new business. She is selling Dove Chocolate via direct sales, similar to Shaklee or Pampered Chef or Tupperware parties. We brainstormed several … Continue reading
Keeping Up with the Boneses
Dr. Bill Brockton is a fictional character based on the knowledge of Dr. Bill Bass and the personality of Jon Jefferson. Some of the people in Dr. Brockton’s world share names with their real-life counterparts. For example, Dr. Arpad Vass … Continue reading
Upfront? ‘Mon Back!
A few of the nice folks at WTNZ said it wouldn’t feel like the upfronts without me. As has become my annual tradition, I accepted Kimay Bloch’s invitation to watch the closed-circuit feed of Fox’s presentation to advertisers on Monday … Continue reading
