Is there such a thing as too much "Wine, Women or Song". What say you Tiger.
It is said that the average male thinks about sex every seven seconds even while running a Marathon. So if your sexually addicted what number could that possibly be.
It seems to me that wives get a lot of credit for their husband’s successes, but none for his failures.
Why does one missed belt loop ruin your entire look.
The thing I think that Ron Chapman and I most have in common is the pleasure we both derive from successfully teaching creativity to gifted people and the art of manufacturing to the creative folks.
PPM is a lot closer to the truth than the diary ever was, but it misses about 30-45 minutes of radio listening every morning, so it’s still not there yet.
If you force your PD to listen to his/her radio station once a week I guarantee he/she will change most of it.
Why do government employees need so much time off. Covering your ass all day can’t be that exhausting.
Surely all women aren’t as dumb as the wives who even though they were living life very very large, all appear to be in total shock when informed their husbands were being arrested for illegally gathering all the funds that they were enjoying so much.
I have learned so much more about diary only markets now that I work mostly with PPM.
This radio thing isn’t going to end well so you better enjoy the journey while your trying to figure out how to get in charge of the way it ends with you.
Sociology is already much more important than technology.
We all agree that doing the detail work is super important. Unfortunately the person doing this all important work isn’t paid very well so nobody wants to do it.
Walt Disney claimed there was no such thing as motivation, only inspiration … You can not make anybody do what they don’t want to do.
You are whoever the guy who pays you says you are.
Obama is very charismatic but he doesn’t hold a candle to Churchill, Kennedy or Trudeau. In fact speaking of candles I think his is almost out.
At the Grammys, Kings Of Leon won record of the year. The oldsters said who the hell are the Kings Of Leon ? The Youngsters said … What’s a record?
Doug Erickson said that a new radio operator in today’s world has a good shot at making 10 million profit which is pretty exciting compared to one of the old guard radio operators who need a 100 million profit just to come close to breaking even.
Some traditions die more slowly than others, like have you ever noticed a woman no matter how much money she may have ever pick up the check.
In the olden days of radio the only ones making a lot of money were the owners, but they never shared. Now they are not making any money but they sure don’t mind sharing that part with us aren’t they.
Joyce Kaufman said “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction”
There is no need to invent new product for new technology, just use the new technology as an excuse to leave out some product that you feel didn’t keep up with the times.
I’m still a student of the “Biz” and I’m still curious about life in general. Unfortunately though there is not really much going on in radio that I want to learn about so I’ll just continue to study life until this part is over.
It’s never been about the government it’s always been about us. How many times do we have to blow them out of office before they get that.
Now if we could just cancel their pension plan and medical coverage when we get rid of them wouldn’t that be sweet.
I just checked radio again, it’s still the same. No Money, No People, and No Time.
It doesn’t mean anything if you get fired in radio today so you might as well do anything you want. Hell It might work!
Shakespeare was so good that he even figured out how to give the actors instructions and make those instructions part of the play

Tim Moore recently told me that back when he was in Dallas working his way up the corporate ladder at TM he heard the early KVIL that Ron and I were putting together. He told me he couldn’t believe he was the only one in “The Biz” that realized that this new sound was going to kill everyone.
Turns out that Tim was the only one that had his ears on back in the day. No wonder he ended up running TM.

Arnold Segal said rivalry is a good thing, it’s what keeps America rolling.
Talent is only one of the tools you’ll need to have to become popular. Too much talent in fact will probably get in the way.

Was it just me or was the interview with the President (Katie’s little editorial) about health care total out of place during the Super Bowl coverage.
I only tease people I like. Now if I love you, it becomes almost unbearable as my Daughters Candis and Cami plus my Niece Christina I’m will attest to.
