New Home

I've move this blog over here too. Nice to see that both my blogs are away from AOL Journals.

Uncommon Bostonian Will Be Moving Soon

I've been informed by AOL Journals that I am able to move this blog and my other one, Outside In, to another location.  I'll be making the move soon.

Btw, former WBZ sports anchor Bob Lobel has been auditioning to be Dale Dorman's replacement on the morning drive at WODS-FM.  Such drama!

Uncommon Bostonian Needs a New Home

AOL Journals is shutting down at the end of the month.  I need to find a new home.  Should it be WordPress or Blogspot?  Any other options out there?

Btw, Dale Dorman is on the weekends at WODS.  At least, he bounced back.

Dale Dorman Out of Oldies 103

Uncle Dale Did His Last Morning Show at WODS Last Friday

Rumors have been running rampant over the Internet about Boston Disc Jockey Dale Dorman being fired from the morning show at WODS.  Boston Radio Watch has declared yesterday that Dale indeed has signed off from WODS-FM last Friday.

Dorman has been a legend in the Boston Radio Market for the last 40 years.  He first came to Boston in 1968 to host the morning show at WRKO-AM.  That gig lasted 10 years.  After two years at WVBF, Dorman became the afternoon host at KISS 108 for the next 23 years.  In September 2003, he joined WODS to become their new morning disc jockey.

I'll miss listening to him in the morning.  I wonder who'll be his successor.

Those Two Conventions are Finally Over!

Convention Time Over.  Real Campaigning Begins!

So we finally know for certain who's running against whom between now and November 4.  One of them has a Tina Fey clone as his VP choice.  How strange!

Things will be historic and interesting for the next two months.  That's for certain.  I liked Barack Obama's speech better than everyone else's.  Hillary looked good too, and so did her husband, Bill.

The polls are even.  What's going on here?  Why no front runner?  Are the Undecideds that uncertain to make up their minds?  What exactly are they waiting for?

Voters should vote for their heart's desire and not vote out of fear.  Maybe, the undecided voters hate both candidates completely.  Maybe, they are acting like spoiled brats who are used to getting everything they want or else they will hold their breath until they turn blue.

Whatever the reason.  Please, get out there and vote on Election Day with your heart's desire.  Don't let anger or fear rule your decision making at all.

Bill Murray Takes a Flying Leap!

SNL Vet Takes One Giant Step for Chicago!

Last Friday, "Saturday Night Live" veteran and movie star Bill Murray did a parachute jump to kick off the 50th annual Chicago Air and Water Show.  A native of Illinois, Murray gladly took a leap out of a C-31 Fokker with help from the Army Golden Knights Parachute Team.

He landed safely on a beach next to Lake Michigan.  He fell 13,500 feet.
