"It's a hotline to God," the Holy Father says. "You can use it... but is costs $20 per minute." Years later the ...

It's Been a Great Ride
As a kid in the 1960s-early 70's listening to WRIG & WIFC and pestering the DJs with requests and telling them that they were playing the wrong songs, I really couldnt have envisioned working in that business for nearly 40 years and spending many of those years working at those stations.
