Well Hi Everybody!

A classic WGUT New Year's Podcast is now up at the WHOT Pod-O-Matic Page for your listening enjoyment!

The happiest New Year's greetings to everyone. Hope you all have a safe celebration tonight and a wonderful 2007!

Merry Christmas!

Just wanted to wish everyone a wonderful and joyous Christmas!

I never got a chance to mail out Christmas CDs this year like I wanted to - so I guess I'll just hold on to them for Christmas 2007!

The good news is - I'M ON VACATION!!! Work has been driving me insane so I will try to get maxiumum relaxation out of my week (if I can).

All the best for you and yours!

Late Nite Blogging

Just sitting here with a nice adult beverage of the peach schnapps and OJ variety, reflecting on a day that consisted of getting the grocery shopping done and putting up the Christmas decorations (finally).

The stockings are hung by the chimney with care and all that. It's not officially Christmas in the Sayek household unless a small cat starts removing the decorations systematically the minute they are put up. This year is no different. I have spent the better part of the last hour trying to extracate Hopper from the tinsel-laden lights that are adorning the archways.

Ahh, the holidays.

Christmas is rapidly approaching and life is good. This is usually the time of year when I start getting reflective...and itchy for baseball season to start already. Eight shopping days until the big day - get a move-on already.

I had a blast sitting in on The All-New Hank and Jim Show Friday Night for a couple of hours and look forward to Sunday afternoon's one-hour show Sunday afternoon (or, later today of you prefer) at 4PM (you can listen live at WBCQ's Web Site by clicking on the "Click here to listen live" link). Hope to see you there!

It Would Be Funny If It Wasn't True

Sometimes, all you need to see when it comes to a disturbing news story...is the headline:

European Socialists eager to work with U.S. Democrats.

Yep. I just threw up in my mouth a little.

Remembering John Lennon...

It's been 26 years since John Lennon was taken away from us prematurely. Why not join me in spinning a few of his LPs tonight and remembering the good times.

65 Years Ago...and Today

Today we marked the solemn anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor. As we all know, the United States reacted the only way they could to such a threat to our well-being and way of life: swiftly and completely.

Ironic isn't it that was just a couple of days ago that the "Iraq Study Group" (sorry...I can't hear that term without picturing a bunch of sixth-graders working on a project with their desks facing each other) released their recommendation for "talks" with barbaric enemies like Syria and Iran.

What a difference 65 years makes, huh?

Cox and Forkum are among my favorite editorial cartoonists - never shying away from telling it like it is. The "Forkum" of the duo pens an excellent piece on the ironic juxtaposition in his Blog of yesterday, which can be read HERE.

The times, they sure are a-changed.

Thanks as always to Tammy Bruce for the heads-up on the C&F piece.
