Laura Ellen...

...we miss you.

It seems a lot longer than 4 years.

Thank you for your vision, and for including me in it…and thank you for not taking crap from anyone!

If you need to know more about Laura, simply Google Laura Ellen Hopper …especially check out Antsy McClain’s post about Laura, and listen to the podcast of the interview he did with her.

Her first job in radio was at KDNA in St. Louis. That's her lying on the floor. I still think this looks like an album cover from the sixties!

With Joe Ely

I don't see her much, since she started to ride!


This was midnight on KPIG Y2K!

Not Feeling It


For those of you who have been stopping by this site and have not seen anything new posted for a so long, I apologize. I’ve been in a little bit of a funk …I just haven’t been feeling it…not feeling very chatty, or creative, or really anything. Just busy!
There has been so much going on, not just in my own little world, but the world in general…
I mean with earthquakes and tsunamis,
nuclear melt downs,
Tornados,
Floods.
Obama,
Osama,
Yo Mama (yo mama, that would be Donald Trump)

Yet…not really feeling it.

There is some good news on the management of KPIG…the new guys running the radio stations actually seem to know what they are doing! And, they seem to be willing to spend some money to fix and promote the station! What a concept! However they are dragging their heels when it comes to raises! Some people here have not had a raise in 10 years!

Overall, though, things are looking up! Stay tuned and see what happens next!

But of course the biggest news story for today is…Santa Cruz’ own American Idol James Durbin is returning to meet his fans and do a short concert at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk…Yes, it’s “Durbin Day” in Santa Cruz!

Yawn…
