Ok, I have been searching, but being new to this board I have to ask......

Anyone know about: Darrell Ray? Walter Jackson? Michael Quinn? Rob Lemming? Tom Lewis? Michael Jay? Jim O'Brian? Jim Hatch?

Jim O and I were sending email for a while, almost 10 years ago. I heard from Hatch once or twice and talked to Michael Jaye once about 11 years ago when he was doing country in Ohio.

Hey Scott,

Last I knew Hatch was working for the Altoona Water Authority.

Hatch is working for the city of Altoona.

I ran into Darrell a couple of years ago in Altoona. Not sure what he's doing now.

Walter is still around the Altoona area, married and I think he has a kid or two.

Rich "Rod Lemming Doc Livingston" Livingston dropped off the face of the earth
after his B103 days.

Jim-O was managing Coconuts Music in Altoona until they closed. I don't know where he is now.

I haven't talked to Quinn in ten or so years. Last I heard, he was a minister.

Don't know where Earl is, or Tom Lewis.

Does anyone know where Pierre Farquar is? He was an FCC agent, Bellefonte division, in charge of fire alarm log-in violations.
I once saw him pistol whip a dj for writing his initials in cursive.
"None of that girly writing on my watch," he told him.
The man was mean!!!
 
You bastages did the covert rooftop attack that will go down in history as "operation snowball the fatman" I am on my fourteenth year of counciling.


How could you launch preformed snowballs off of a radio station roof at a nice little fur ball?

There was no such thing as "operation snowball the fatman."
This was yet another of Radio Pete's conspiracy theories that he spread as he slipped deeper into tobacco pipe-induced paranoia. He also spread a rumor that there was a holiday party on Swayne's shift each Christmas.
(Unfounded. Unsubstantiated. And Untrue. at least for the Uninvited.)
Nor--to my knowledge--was there ever a "Put a potato in the fatman's tailpipe" operation.
There is also no such thing as the "AMN Mafia."

Darrell Ray was working construction in Ohio. I ran into him this past fall, and he was in the process of moving back to the area, but I don't know what he's doing now. Walter Jackson worked at C-Cor in Tipton until the plant closed a few years ago. Last I talked to him, he said he may migrate back to Arizona.

Also, the original WPRR CHR airstaff had a guy whom Darrell labeled the "Hitman." He did 6pm-midnight for a couple of years---I filled in for him during vacations, but I can't remember his name (as you get older the mind is the first thing to go!!!). Does anybody remember???

Bab Bailey said to say, "Hey. Lookit."

Take a look at my wife Phyllis. She's hot. Ask me, she'll do you if she can have a sales job.

Everyone go to Harpsterland Chevy in Phillipsburg. Hey Lookit, they have good cars there.

"Operation Snowball the Fatman" was meticulously planned but never materialized.

There were several potatos in that tailpipe.

Once, "Pierre" had Radio Pete do an "FCC Firedrill", which consisted of shutting down the radio station and standing outside for 10 minutes. Pete complied with the instructions 100%.

That doesn't surprise me.

One time when I was in high school, I called Ken Clapper and TV-10 and said I was the Tyrone School District and gave them the snow emergency word and closed school.

Not too bad.

Jim Gallentine. I think he did nights right before Hatch.

Hitman Jim Gallentine. Scott St. John made me stop using HITMAN after 1 shift to avoid comparison. I resurrected the name at B103 in State College and it stuck!

Hitman Steve Hilton

I did? Damn I wish I could have a do-over. So much stuff I would do differently! But I guess that is part of growing up.

Thanks Dave. I always liked Darrell, especially his on-air humor. He seemed so calm in person. I do have to thank the guy for giving me a shot, giving me work when I was only part-time and for giving me full time when Stephanie left.

Walt got a bum rap, I was so sick after a certain someone made me fire him.

Quinn is a minister? Another bun rap, man Dave, we had to do some stupid things, huh?

Oh yeah, lots of the things that I had to do were bad moves. I like to think that about 3/4 of the stupid things I did were dictated by management, and 1/4 were just me being stupid.
