Boos-Day

Since we are in the scariest month of the year.  I figured pull out some old costumes of Halloween's past for W-Boo-MX... (think I will drop them here on Tuesday or Boos-Day)  Some may scare you...  others will not...

This is not one of my more expensive costumes, but boy did I enjoy it.   It was my Hobo-Sheik Phase of costumes.

HOBO 2

W-Boo-MX is happening all month so listen up, thru Friday from 3-7pm, to win a 4-Pack of Carnival of Horrors Passes with the Monster Mash-Up... 3 songs you know the titles as caller 9... You could win!  Good Luck!

Throwback Anniversary

Today's Throwback just made sense.

Everyday at 3:20, I play 'The Throwback Song of The Day'...   

If you have a song top of mind, let me know, I might be able to get it on for you. 

Call/Text it into the Cricket Wireless Studioline 330-370-2000 or email me at bThis email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. 

Today Brooke said, she loved this one when it first came out and still does to this day!  I'm not gonna say all the Throwbacks are as timeless as this one.  I did play 'Achy Breaky Heart' on Monday.   Today, being Tim McGraw and Faith Hill's 26th Anniversary, it just seemed to check all the boxes.   

 Here was Tim's ode to Faith, also...

Go Guards!

Well that was fun!  The Guardians regular season 92-70.   

Back in April, most if not all believed with the youngest team, low budget way of doing things meant bad news for the Guardians. 

Signing Jose Ramierez was huge...  This team did as Jose did and believed in themselves just as Skipper Terry Francona did! 

-The pitching staff is lights out. 

-The Closer has absolutey filthy stuff. 

-Jose Ramierez is steady as they come, should be considered for MVP.

-While Steven Kwan is my choice for Rookie Of The Year. What a spark plug!

-They are going to be a tough out... they were something like 24-10 over their last games since Sept. 21st... the hottest team since Labor Day!

Now Friday-Sunday they will battle the Tampa Rays to keep this magical season going. 

Friday and Saturday, Games 1 and 2 are at 12:07pm.  The Sunday Game if needed is at 4:07pm.  The best of 3 series should be one for the ages. 

Fans represent at Progressive this weekend and beyond... GO GUARDS!!!

Since Tom Hanks threw out the 1st pitch at the Home Opener with Wilson from Castaway... 

Maybe David Pumpkins should throw out the 1st pitch of the October Game 1 playoffs... (probably not!)

Oh Dear Loretta

Today we lost a legend, a trailblazer, the Queen of Country...Loretta Lynn passed away at the age of 90. 

The overwhleming love and admiration that was, and continues to be, shown for the "Coalminer's Daughter" from her friends. fans and peers is all well deserved! An amazing woman....160+Songs, 60 Albums, 45 Million Records Sold World Wide... 4 Grammy's, 7 AMA's, 13 ACM's, 8 CMA's, Songwriters Hall of Fame and more.  Their are so many accolades. Rest In Peace, Dear Loretta.

Boy, did she leave a lasting impression with fans, country and basically everyone she met by the looks of all these posts.

Expensive Explosion

Ever wonder what a 300 million dollar explosion looks like?   Here it is...  NASA's DART Mission (Double Asteroid Redirect Test spacecraft)  flying a $300 Million Dollar Spacecraft into an asteroid.  (I realize this could come in handy at some point.  I love you NASA.)  Just couldn't we have sent up the old Pinto of space travel, the one you use for the space demo derby or something!  This was a kamikaze mission, right?  Kudos...
