That’s David Ross (I think) and Me in the Minny Mouse Tee in the WSHE studios. Check out the carts and the rack of LP”s behind me and the Cheap Trick and Bob Marley records on the wall.

Here’s a quick of some fill-in work I did with on a couple of weeks ago. Edited out the breaks, no editing of the show. It was fun. KTSA is a great station!

A New Site Update

by johnford on September 18, 2008

I loved the old theme of johnford.net, however it was a very slow load. Tried as I did to optimize the damn thing, I believe it was an exercise in futility. So… a new theme. It’s clean and runs much faster. Hope you approve.

The Return of RadioSurfer

by johnford on August 25, 2008

If you’ve been visiting johnford.net for a while, you may remember I used to run RadioSurfer, the all in one, quick loading portal. I let the site go a couple of years ago, despite much protest. I just didn’t have the time to hard-code the site every day. Well, times have changed and I’ve built a new back-end that enables me to offer the radiosurfer service once again. Unfortunately, I no longer have the domain, but the good news is, I have an even better one. RadioNX.com.

The new RadioNX.com will be updated multiple times a day with links to the biz news spread across the net and links to the full articles. I’ve also incorporated a daily news subscription feed and set up a bulletin board. Best of all, it’s lean and mean and loads super-fast with a minimum of unnecessary flash, glitz or bloat. Just the news with minimum junk, fast. Check it out, I’m sure you will like it.

When promotions go wrong, they often go very, very wrong. Remember the promotion in Sacramento last year at KDND, when a woman died from water intoxication following "Hold Your Wee for a Wii?" Of course there’s the infamous WKRP Thanksgiving turkey drop promotion. The sad and laughable promotion at the ficticious WKRP, where the lovable but dimwitted GM Arthur Carlson thought that live turkeys dropped from a helicopter would be a good idea on turkey day. Who cold ever forget Carlson’s shocked quip when the turkeys started cascading to the ground in a mass homicidal avian horror? "As God is my witness, I thought turkeys could fly!"
