It's 2019 and...I really, really miss some of you
I logged in to this old account (which hadn't been updated in a decade) in order to find my original posts about 9/11 ( Read more... ) -
sxsw!
Having a great time in Austin this week. I can't believe that we're already closing out our 4th day of live broadcasts and we've been here 6 days already. We're down to 9 sessions left and I only have 3 left that I have to host so that's working for me ( Read more... ) -
another chapter
As some of you can probably tell now, there was more that I would have liked to say on the 5th Anniversary of 97X's FM sign off, but at the time we just weren't quite ready to make the announcement. I would guess that most of you have now seen that WOXY is under new ownership. We officially announced it earlier this week, although have been ( Read more... ) -
Time flies...
5 years ago today, the sale of 97X was announced. It was such a surreal moment and it's been a long time since I've looked back at any of that news. Barb passed on this link today, which originally ran in City Beat ( Read more... ) -
Awwwww shit -- my new car
Pictures to follow when it's nice enough to snap some photos, but I actually bought my first real car today. I had always hoped that I'd be living a bit more of an adult life by the time I turned 30, but my debt issues kept me from having a bit more independence until last year. Slowly, but surely I have been correcting my past wrongs...and that ( Read more... ) -
goodbye Rivieria
My car finally bit the big one yesterday. Truth be told, I have no idea what is wrong with it and I do not care. I decided after Thanksgiving of '07 when it required a bunch more work that there would be no more chances for it. I am not putting any more money into that fucker. Shockingly, it has run good enough for the last year to hang on to it... ( Read more... ) -
The Onion A.V. Club's Least Essential Albums of 2008
I love this list every year and this description just made me shit myself with laughter:
Alvin And The Chipmunks, Undeniable
In conclusive proof that God does not exist, and that if He did, He would hate you with the blazing intensity of a thousand suns, the recent Alvin And The Chipmunks movie grossed more than $360 million and prompted an ( Read more... ) -
Favorite Songs Of 2008 - WOXY broadcast 12/24/2008
This is hardly a complete listing of my favorite tracks of the year, but after I filtered out repeat selections from my co-workers (we all picked tracks like Deerhunter's "Nothing Ever Happened", The Week That Was' "Scratch The Surface", and Elbow's "Grounds For Divorce" initially) and tracks that I just couldn't get away with playing (like "Single ( Read more... ) -
I wish we had a genuinely indie theater in town...instead of 2 fake ones
SON OF A WHORE. The Esquire was supposed to be opening "I've Loved You So Long" on Christmas Day, but it looks like they've dumped it for "Valkyrie." Seriously? Because that one is going to be at every other theater in the area, but I've been waiting for WEEKS to get "I've Loved You So Long." Even "Slumdog Millionaire" has now expanded to several ( Read more... )
