I spent 30 years staring at VU Meters. A VU meter (volume unit) is an analog device that measures the average audio signal level in decibels (dB). Every radio control board has at least one of them.
I started in 1964 as a disk jockey playing music and then became a broadcast journalist in 1970.

After working part-time at three Ohio stations (WWST, WKNT, WTIG,) just a year after my high school graduation, I landed a full-time staff announcer job at WJER in Dover-New Philadelphia, Ohio. There, I was a full-time announcer, and I had a rock and roll show called SPINDIG.

Since I was a deejay for school dances at Wooster High School, I introduced my fans to a new band from England called The Beatles.
When their movie, A Hard Day's Night came to Ohio in 1964, I hosted the premiere of the film. The moment I said, "Beatles", screams were all over the packed theater.

I am proud of one thing. Often in 79 years, I decided what I wanted to be and then worked hard to make it real.
When I was 15, I wanted to be a radio announcer. Consequently, I ended up with a 30-year career in six different states as a radio deejay and a radio journalist.

My cat, Stanford, was adopted in 2021. He is a college-educated cat (or so he says) and he runs the room. Getting me up in the morning, checking on me during the day, and reminding me to empty his litter. He is also a handsome cat, according to followers on Bluesky.

I played folk rock guitar in the 60s and bass guitar in 2000. Perfect rhythm is my only real skill. I’ve played bongos and congas on drum circles.
Today I play the Djembe, West Africa's best-known instrument. My drum is a piece of African mahogany colored blue and topped by a Goatskin drumhead.

My grandmother kidnapped me five times. I spent the first 12 years of my life in nine different towns, across six different states, mostly in hotel rooms, shabby one-room apartments, and in bus stations. The fumes of a Greyhound bus remind me of my childhood.

A well-known Buddhist practice for cultivating and sending positive thoughts to those with other afflictions is called loving-kindness meditation.
Sending healing thoughts is a valid and powerful expression of compassion and goodwill within the Buddhist tradition.
I appreciate God for others.

I am so sorry to hear that you lost someone so dear to you in that way. It had to be so traumatic for her and for you.
This might be weird, I'll say it anyway...God Bless You.
In some ways, it provides me with a certain solace.
Take care and find your comfort.

I was born a girl. I have always been such a Tom Boy.
I am clearly hetero. I have no judgment.
You do you, I'll do me. Nothing wrong with any of that.
