Never believe anything you hear on this program unless you know it to be true from other sources…Neil Boortz always preaches this message. Sometimes he’ll say something totally outrageous just to prove his point. The best example of this is the post 9/11 tale of shutting down Lake Lanier to all boat traffic due to Dam Security. The outrage from his listeners was incredible. Yes, People believe this stuff.
When I was an infamous radio jock, I made up all kinds of stuff including the weather forecasts. I figured that if I predicted a chance of showers or scattered showers everyday then as weatherman I could never be wrong. If it rained then I called it…if it didn’t rain then people would figure that it had rained somewhere else in North Georgia and they lucked out. Clever Huh? Radio contests were rigged so that more favorable winners would be picked. That’s read to mean that someone who would spread the word most would win the prize. How do you know if you’re the 10th caller any way? Have a cute sexy voice…you win.
My point to all of this is simple. Why do we just accept that what the news media tells us is the truth? How do we really know that Arab Terrorists really crashed planes into the Twin Towers? How can we say for sure that the buildings collapsed from the crash and not from an internal explosion? Is this really so far fetched?
Do I believe in conspiracy theories? Yes and no. I just don’t believe everything the media shoves down my throat as fact. I question everything. Why was there a second explosion in Oklahoma City? How did 2 kids put more than 20 bombs in Columbine high school without someone stopping them? The magic bullet theory in the J.F.K. assassination and a cult leader molesting children in Waco are other examples.
When I watch a newscast I always ask myself two questions.
1. Why are they broadcasting this story?
2. What story are they not showing me instead?
It’s hard to determine the truth. I will always listen to alternative ideas. Then I must make up my mind from the evidence presented or wait to be the 10th caller.

I have a long day ahead. A 7:30 am Cooks meeting, followed by a Manager meeting, then my closing shift. Man! I will be tired.
What is the deal with Drunks lately? I have called more Cabs in the last few days. Why can’t people drink in moderation? I want my guests to have a good time and spend money. However, lately I have had people falling down drunk. Passed out! The other night this woman came in, drank like a fish, asked for the Acidman, and then proceeded to pass out while sitting on the porcelain throne. My God Woman! What were you thinking? Drop trou then pass out…. it takes all kinds I guess.
I need another drink…. Till later….bottoms up!

I will have a few days off from work this weekend. I don’t know what with myself. I don’t see myself Blogging for days. I would like to do something with the family but I just can’t afford another trip right now.

The dismantling of the office is underway. Piece by piece the room is being transformed into a little girl’s bedroom. That’s cool and all but I’ll miss my hideaway. I’ll now have to surf the net in the master suite. That wouldn’t be so bad except the lovely and talented Priscilla likes to sleep in the middle of the night.

I need something to fall back on. I thought about that as I was working tonight. I knew I was going to “make it” as a musician. I stayed in school any way. When the Music thing fizzled I fell back on my radio career. I again “knew” that I was going to be the Alan Freed or Wolfman Jack of my generation. When that didn’t happen I fell back on the old standby…. restaurant work. Now I feel as though I need to have yet another back up plan. I thought about teaching. I think the idea of summers off really appeals to me. Maybe I’ll put the ole college education to work.

Thanks to Zack…this is a shitty site.

It never ceases to amaze me. The old machine here just crashed and by some miracle this post was recovered…Automatically! There is a Ghost in the Machine!
