My Blog about the various things I like and some of the things I discover from time to time.
How I Started Playing Records

I was a breakfast cook at Lenny's Restaurant, and one of our steady early morning customers owed the local AM radio station. After a while we got to talking and I told him I always wanted a radio show. He said how about Monday nights. So I was on playing my own records once a week from 8 - 12 midnight.
Here I am from 21 years ago.
My brother taped this on a little cassette, and there are some small gaps in the playback.
Back Yard Birds Sign of Spring
Strange light woke me up in the morning, turned out to be the sun! Not much sun this time of February in NE Ohio, so it was welcome. As I awoke I heard peeps, and there were many sparrows in the big old rose bush out back, so I took a video.

Lunar Eclipse over Newbury, Ohio Feb 20, 2008
It was 11 pm and 3 degrees outside.
They said on the news this was the same eclipse that Columbus viewed while his crew was starving in Jamaca. He told the natives that he would make the moon disappear, and that the only way to get it back would be to provide food for them. They did not know he had a farmers almanac with the eclipse dates.
