I would
like KYKZ listeners to know how much I
appreciate them,
their loyalty and
support. They are the ones that make it
possible
for me to do what I love to do
for a living!! |

Most
Embarrassing Moment On This Air: |
After more than
30 years on the air it's hard to choose one. There are the usual profanities that have
slipped out, or waking up at 8:00am and the station is not on the air because you were
scheduled to sign on at 5:00am. At some of the stations I worked for it was just
embarrassing to work there! |

Thing About Radio: |
It's addictive,
once you have done it you are never happy doing anything else. |
