"Would you add my email in your list on the site when you have a chance. I don't participate a lot but I do enjoy what you're doing here. I've been able to touch base with a lot of people that have scattered all over the world. You and I pretty much cut the same trail concerning our start in Radio. I, too, started at WBLC but I was under Ray Stockard. I got a wild hair one day and went to WIVK and submitted my tape. No one was more surprised than me when they hired me. There was a kid who came to WBLC and wanted to get into radio. I was a "pro" of about a year and started working with him. He finally got a job and did pretty good. Yeah, I'm responsible for Mike Beach. I came in one Sunday in the middle of the preachers. They were at a fever pitch about the sins of smoking and Mike was in the studio running the board, looking through the glass, eye to eye with them smoking a big cigar! Did they still have that Dr Pepper machine when you worked there? That was all they had when I was there and I still can't drink those things. LOL" (Jerry Howell) email~ mskywatch@aol.com
