6/27/05 Last Weekend & This Week
Last Saturday Sabrina and I went to her sister’s wedding reception in the Grand Rapids area. While I was out of town for the night Screamin’ Scott took care of "Amped On The 80s" for me, and by all reports did a great job!

I made it back in time for my Sunday air shift, but my brain must have stayed in Grand Rapids. I had one of my worst on-air screw-ups ever. Different jocks approach things from different directions, and seeing that I did not go to broadcasting school or collage my approach has always just been a natural, conversational hang out. Sunday I forgot a location of a WRIF event and I tried to read it of a piece of paper, bottom line I couldn’t find what I was looking for, and that led to a bad and pretty embarrassing break.

I’ve been asked a few times before about what makes a good radio talent, and I’ve always said, "EVERYONE makes mistakes, the good jocks blow past their mistakes and just accept them as human error, a bad jock will let it bother them and that leads to more mistakes." The rest of my Sunday shift was nearly perfect, thank God.

This week, on Wednesday night I’m down river at Harlen’s in Brownstown. Stop out and we can talk about weather or not there will be any NHL hockey this fall, and you might win some RIFF stuff too.

P.S. is Jerry Roenick the most spoiled, petty hockey player of all time or what?
Black Out.
