    After a 50-hour disc jockey marathon 25 years ago, the final goal has been reached… a shout-out on Blogorama! Thanks Kevin!

    I hadn’t heard about Boom Boom. That’s sad. I (barely) knew his daughter and recall him on the radio as the swingin’ cool cat rocker guy…
    I think about him every time I drive by his house and wonder how he’s doing & what he’s up to. Now I know.

    As for Brock… he should grow that beard until he can sculpt it into a giant, phallic sword. Those seem to look good on him.
