Thanks Brownbag :)
For the kind words. I can only speculate in which market we competed.

Phoenix, Boston, Washington,Pittsburgh, Miami or Richmond ?? Use my e-mail...it's good to keep in touch with old friends AND adversaries.

I took a "breather" after 5 years @ XM to care for my Dad. I'm glad to report he's back to normal, i.e....driving me nuts. I suppose my kids would day the same thing.

The past months have been the most confusing in my career. Feverish interest from companies followed by market visits and on air auditions.

Then.....silence. No follow up. No critique. No contact. A struggle to even get my expenses reimbursed.

Does this mean I'm over ? Finished after 35 years ? Washed up @ 50 ?

It's a terrifying thought....haunting me mostly in the late hours as my family sleeps, unaware of my demons.

Thanks God I've slain the demons that have impeded and interfered with my life and my career.

However, I can't accept that I'm no longer relavent to the industry that I've spent most of my life practicing.....the love of my life....radio. I can't imagine doing anything else. (insert Dad nagging here)

Maybe this is what silent picture actors experienced. Or test pilots around Mercury Redstone.

Or, just maybe, I wasn't as good as I thought I was.

The Morning Man Lament post just hit me in the gut. I envy someone who can put raw feelings into words.

I take the easy way out.

I talk for a living.

Or at least used to.
