Happy Anniversary Hal Jay!

[Davradio]

25 Years! In this market... thats saying something.. especially if your last name isn't Chapman, Dorsey, or Joyner (oh wait-- he is syndicated now)... Kidd Kraddick has been on the Dallas airwaves for just about 20 years or so-- may be a bit longer... Ben Laurie-- well there's a veteran of the Dallas airwaves for over 40 years in this market...

Just a treat that someone has been with the same station all these years says something about their show, about their preperation, about how they can roll with format changes and still make themselves valuable to the station-- even through PD changes, GM changes.. OWNERSHIP changes... Congratulations Hal-- you deserve every bit of it!

Read the story in the DMN: AM drive and PM drive; never heard of such a thing.

Let's hope Al has a great turnout next week at Los Vaqueros honoring him. Although Al won't let you honor him; just have a great margarita!

Here, Here....Give that man a Scotch and
some of Sean's fried turkey!

Congrats Hal. Hope you're around for another 25.

A straight shootin', respectful, total
professional, and one of the damndest quick
witted, funny as hell individuals I've had
the pleasure of working with over the years.

Damn hard to concentrate on being serious after
one of those morning bits...
