This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.

School sign flub

Post by Ace Purple »

GUILFORD COUNTY, N.C. -- People who live on Drake Road near Southern Guilford High School are pleased with the new paving on their street. They say contractors did a good job on the road, except for the spelling.

In big, bold, white letters the contractors wrote "SHCOOL."

Does she still think you're the OTHER Clay Walker?
If you guys are going to be at the air show this year let me know and I'll buy you a beer.

It wouldn't surprise me if that were the case. I gotta take what I can get these days, ya know. I just got the sheet confirming the airshow yet again, so we'll be there with bells on. Hopefully this year I don't pussy out on the media flight thing...
Been listening to the show too Bob. Almost called in the other day to test if your delay was working or not, but I didn't wanna conjur up any bad 'Flynn' style mojo for myself, if you catch my drift.

The delay is ALWAYS on Clay. Of course, whether I'll hit the dump button is a totally different matter!
It's been cool making the transition to full talk. I have to remember to slow the pace all the time. That ten second timer is always on in my head.
