I am a radio Dj. It's a career that makes you move to get ahead sometimes. I wouldn't change it for the world. I was maybe in 7th grade when I got the Radio 'bug'. I would record DJ's off the radio, and then listen to it over and over again. I loved the goodnight line with Greg 'The Hitman' Williams. Fast forward to me on the College radio station at Butler County Community College. Man was it addictive. Well, College was cool, but it cost me way to much money. I had to get a real job again and pay bills. So I got a job at Aarons Lease and Purchase(rent to own). That's how I got into REAL radio. I know, Aarons got me into Radio??? How could that be you ask?? The night guy(Sean Kelly), from 107.3 KKRD came into my store, we chatted, I sold him a TV, gave him a good deal, and told him to help me get back into radio. A couple of months go by, we throw a party at our house, Sean shows up. I tell him again that I want in, I'll do whatever. He finally lets me do stupid stuff on his show. That's how I got back into radio and how I am where I am today.So after seven years of radio, nine radio station, well over 20,000 miles moved, I am here in Jacksonville, Florida. The past two years here have been great! Love it. I have met some great people, done some great things, and it's really been a blast-e-blast.
The only thing that sucks is holidays. Really, my family hasn't been all that festive, but my friends all invite me to thier parents houses, or I got to the Cotter family's dinners. I have great friends who I love dearly, and I miss them. Sometimes I think I should just get a 'real' job and move back home. Then I have those amazing radio days that makes me think I am nuts.
It's time to jump on the air. If you want, comment. If not, cool. Hopefully I will have some bomb ass stories to post up here, and just random ish.

There are thousands of peopel who would give their left nut for what you have... never forget that man. You are an awesome DJ and should not let those skills go to waste! You are talented individual, dont forget that. There will be many days when you question your job and what you are doing in life, but dont let those single days affect your whole life. You are an awesome dude and a great friend! If you ever need someone to do stupid stuff on your show, all you have to do is call!
