So today I was thinking of some marketing ideas for the station. One of our AE’s has PartyPoker.com, but their ads are only allowed to run after 1000p on the Fox and UPN stations in San Diego. This is not a Fox or UPN policy, it’s a station policy. Well, I said I thought that [...]

Why is it that every time I go to a store or fast-food restaurant, everybody wants to give me a bag to put my stuff in? Example: Today I bought a birthday card at Walgreens. A thin, average birthday card. After I paid for it, the guy put it in a big plastic bag. The [...]

First, I want to apologize to Brian for call the ribbon on his arm “shit”. As in, “Dude, what’s that shit on your arm mean?” I should have used my communications degree and asked my question in a more less confrontational manner. So I will ask him now, “Hey Brian, would you please explain to [...]

So this afternoon, at lunch, I finally cleared Metroid Fusion. It took 7 hours of gameplay and about a year of time. I bought it last Thanksgiving, I think. It’s been so long. Anyway, I passed it. No I can play the GameCube version , Metroid Prime and get the Fusion suit. Sweet. I will [...]

Oh yeah, I forgot about Chad. So here is my revised roomie list: Jessica Chad Eric the Soccer Man Eugene Two more interviews tonight and a new ad on Craig’s List should give us more options. More news to follow.

Devout readers of NIMH, I am introducing a new section to you and yours. The MUSIC link is now active. But it’s not what you think. Check it out and tell me what you think.

I just sent my resume and cover letter to the PD and APD of Indie 103.1. Both guys seem laid back and I think if given the chance, I would fit well into the station. But who knows, I really just want an opportunity to prove myself in an interview. In other Montez news, we [...]

Friday’s at the office are mostly a cakewalk. The downside is that with little to pass the time, the day drags, it’s now 1140AM and it feels like I’ve been here for a month. I am about to draft something creative to give to Michael Steele that should get me an interview. Let the gear [...]

There are three places that I eat lunch at. In the 5700 building complex, in my car, or at a local restaurant with friends or business peeps. So today I choose the complex. I am still reading Fast-Food Nation and I wanted to complete the next chapter. The complex is a good place for that. [...]

Goodbye acupuncture, goodbye Shiatsu, goodbye Reflexology, goodbye Swedish massage, goodbye Rolfing, ye hardly knew thee. I just spoke with Mia, the massage lady. She can’t move in if she can’t bring her cat. So sad. I guess it’s back to man-on-man touching. Oh well, we’ll find someone better – if that’s possible. Back to the [...]

Hello New York!!! Sitting at my desk, just finished lunch. Want to go home, nothing to do here. So i’ve been making appointments to meet roommates, calling people and telling them that we can’t take any pets, and the new rent rate, etc. This weekend, we moved Toby from room 2 to room 3. Very [...]

So this morning, while I was going over a list of crap and marking stuff off the list, I looked at my arm. The left one; near the forearm. I decided that I needed some ink on that arm. A tat – WORD. So I grabbed a Sharpie (the red one) and gave myself some [...]

As most of you know, we are in search of a roommate. We have several leads, but perhaps our best bet is Mia. Why, she brings her own benefits, here is the email she sent me: “Hello, my name is Mia. I am 24, female, clean, considerate, responsible, and always pay my bills on time. [...]

I just spoke with Michael Steele, Program Director for KDL. Here is the FINAL word. KDL is owned by Entravision, programmed by Entravision, and the signal and studios will be here, with me, in the Entravision studios. So where does Clear Channel fit in? Clear Channel (out of the Burbank office) paid Entravision for the [...]

So the last few days have been a bit fucky. I did the evaluation, and was told that there were no foreseeable sales positions. So I will begin my job search. At the same time, the radio station is being built around us. It’s like watching a time-lapse film. Everyday something new gets installed. The [...]

I found out some info about Indie 103.1. The good news, they are still owned by Entravision. The bad news, they are not so Indie and are being programmed by a former KISS-FM programing assistant, Michael Steele. Articles are below. Article 001 Article 002

First, good news, Toby and I finally got the Replay working on the “BIG” TV. We even set up some shows to record. Fun Fact about the Replay, you can tell the downstairs machine to record a show on the upstairs machine, pretty cool. Also, I love the interface. our Digi-Cable interface sucks, this is [...]

Which of the following national chain restaurants began in Southern California? Carl’s Jr McDonalds Taco Bell Burger King Jack in the Box

I think it was Aqua man who said, ewww weeee coooo naaaaaa eeeeee. But that’s because he was talking to sea creatures. My tour of Los Angeles Area LA Fitness’s continued last night. I went to the new club on La Cienega. It was very, very nice. I am going to make it my “Official [...]

Las t night was my grand return to BLUE MONDAY. This club rocks. It’s 80′s music, but the with sushi, drinks, and Nintendo. Last night was especially exciting, I should have brought Jon. Jon, there were some ladies you would have liked. Wanna go next week? The bouncer said the first few weeks of the [...]

Yesterday was the first time I actually made the Two-A-Days. My body is pissed at me. I am totally sore. However, I would be worse if I had not received a killer massage – thanks C. The gym is still great, but it took a long time to get a treadmill last night. New year [...]

New Year’s Eve went well. CS, KS, KR, BB, MH, and DS all hung at the house and we brought in the new year. Then we went to The Kettle for breakfast. I watched football all weekend and I start my workout schedule tomorrow. Viva la Ziploc. Clothes are washing right now, I will prep [...]
