Behka's Enquiring Minds

We've got two three day weekends coming up November — and most successful people have planned out (or at least thought about) what they'll do over those three days.

Everywhere you go these days . . . on the street, at a restaurant, at the movies . . . you see people staring straight down at their phones.  Unless you're too busy staring at YOURS.  So . . . has it become socially acceptable?

I'm always looking for excuses to get a survey on the website - so you can get more points.  I see what I do on the air as a way of conversing with you - but most of the time it's just me talking.  So with our surveys, I ask, and you answer.

I'm a person who loves movies. I do like to watch them more often at home, but I'll pop on a movie just about any time. Heck, if you want to get technical (and I know you do) I have a bachelor's degree in Broadcasting and Film.  So yes, I have watched a lot of movies in my time. In my  movie watching prime I was getting through two a night.

This week we just celebrated Columbus Day.  To be honest, I'm still not all that sure why we do that.  I mean, sure, for some people it's about Italian pride.  Which is fine.  But really? Christopher Columbus?  It got me to thinking.

You can't avoid em, you're bound to see or hear em everyday: Commercials. Some of them are good and effective, some of them are bad and just plain wrong.  I'm sure you heard back a couple of months ago about the really bad local commercial here in Missouri.

We're all getting older.  Second by second, minute by minute, day by day, week by week, month by month.....  the time keeps ticking along and showing on our faces.  For me, I can't wait.  I look forward to being the old person on the porch screaming at kids to get off my lawn.

Every day I rack my brain to try to think of things for you and I to talk about.  I see what I do on the air as a way of conversing with you - but most of the time it's just me talking.  So with our surveys, I ask, and you answer.

If you asked people 30 years ago what sandwich they ate most . . .  99% would've said peanut butter and jelly.

Every year, there's a new influx of television shows.  Everything from reality to drama to comedy, game shows, contest shows, it's always pretty varied.  Not always are they the greatest, but sometimes one will stick with us.
