This morning (Aug. 9), something happened as I entered the fairgrounds that will be happening every morning on the grounds, but hopefully with more attention given by people than what I saw this morning.
August 8, 2013 Kids, I think we're all excited for all the shows that are coming up at the Missouri State Fair. And not just the grandstand shows, but the Bud Tent and all the free musical entertainment on the grounds, too. So I thought I'd take a second and go over some of the standard, well, "politeness" marks that people should probably hit. Or at least, they should in my opinion.
August 7, 2013 It's good to be back! Last week I had something coming up and unfortunately couldn't get the "Would You Rather Wednesday" up in time. Due to those circumstances, like many of you, if I would have known the future, I could have been able to plan accordingly.
August 2, 2013 When I moved to town, one of the first thing I learned was that I had to have a Guberburger from the Wheel Inn Drive In. It's a grilled steakburger topped with peanut butter and a Sedalia tradition.
July 31, 2013 Kids, this weekend is a big deal for those of us in Pettis County. The Pettis County Commission is going to encourage retail sales by offering a Sales Tax Holiday.
July 30, 2013 I was driving around today and thought I'd share a few pet peeves that I notice on the road. I realize I'm far from perfect on my driving, so take these for what it's worth.
July 30, 2013 Kids, you and I both know that there are new country singers every day. There are some that work, and some that... well, don't. Let's be clear before I start in on this. When I'm referring to these people, I mean folks who started out in either rock or pop music, had some success there, and are now doing country music. Some have had bigger successes than others.
July 25, 2013 Lately, we have been treated to some great karaoke to get qualified for the Missouri State Fair Idol. I must admit, it's been quite some time since I have sang karaoke and when I do, I usually need a little bit of liquid courage.
On Monday, July 22, the Sedalia City Council held a work session, and as a newsman for Townsquare Media here in Sedalia, I was there in that capacity. One of the topics of conversation that received the most response from everyone prior to the work session was the items of history that were displayed for many years in the Pettis County Courthouse, and of course, the Black Bear that was enclosed in a glass case and sat facing the Ohio Street entrance to greet people as they entered.
July 24, 2013 It's Humpday, time to get over those mid-week blues with another round of "Would You Rather." Last week, I gave you the option to only be able to shout or only be able to whisper every time you spoke. In a landslide, 78% of you would rather only be able to whisper.
