Open house or no we have a show to do so tune in at 9:30 p.m. (due to BC Basketball pushing us and Conservatively speaking back 30 minutes)

Our primary guest is Barbara Espinosa of the blog AmericanFreedom and of KFNX’s Hair on Fire Monday evenings 8 p.m. Arizona time.

Our in house guest (literally as we are leaving from my open house party for the studio) will be DaScienceGuy.

We will be talking about the border, Amnesty and Venezuela and Iranian missiles and the stories the media blew the best in 2010.

So tune in to WCRN 830 AM on your dial if you are in our 50,000 Watt range and if you are not click on our site and listen live

Update 2: count now 11 41 to go for the record

My annual Christmas Open house is today from 2 p.m. till the last person leaves.

The rules are: turn up any time, stay as long as you want, leave any time. The party end when the last person leaves.

There is a VERY limited amount of beer and some booze but there is Lasagna, Ham, braciole, wings, sauce, meatballs, some sausage, deserts etc etc etc.

The only beer is a sixpack of Wachusett Country Ale (even though they aren’t advertising with me HINT HINT) so if you have a favorite you might want to bring it.

One note, due to today’s show I’ll be leaving around 8:15 p.m. to go to the studio, do the show and then come back, likely around 11:15 or so.

Remember the party ends when the last person leaves, the latest its gone is 2 a.m. and the earliest 10:45 but since DaScienceGuy will be in the car the last guest will be here till 11:15 at least.

There will be game systems set up in two rooms and many types of board games to choose from Apples to apples to Cave Troll to the munchkin games to chess.

So eat drink and be Merry and celebrate the 8th day of Christmas with us!

And if you want to know what to bring:

  • Your favorite Booze or beer in case we don’t have it (we have vodka, stoli, Rum and raspberry stoli, a little Lambrusco and some Chivas)
  • Ice
  • Or any dish you wish if you wish.

but mainly bring yourself.

And not to be a party popper but don’t be bringing drugs, if you do we will kick you out and call the cops on you.  And if you are under age I don’t care if your 21st birthday is tomorrow don’t even think of touching a drop of booze here or you will be kicked out and the cops called on you.

Happy New Year (and 8th day of Christmas)

First day of the year and I have a correction from last year

As you know I’ve given an inordinate amount of my time in the last month to a young lady named Hallie Miller.

She is part of a contest where the top 10 finishers get a magazine spread. She is working hard to chase her dream and when I went to bed at 2 a.m. she was in 6th. I assumed the contest was over and went there this morning to see a thank you post.

Much to my surprise I saw this post which said:

This is the last day of the contest that I am in and I could really use your vote.

She is not making the Lyndon Johnson mistake of Aug 1941 letting her guard down on the last day. I’ve seen a couple of people suddenly surge (including a chance in 1st place) over the last few days and wisely is not taking any chances.

Between the open house today and the show, I am going to be VERY busy but I’ll take one last moment today to ask you go here and vote for Hallie Miller.

She is about 100 votes out of 5th. I’d love to see her get those votes. so head right over there now and cast that last vote for Hallie Miller and help her take that first step toward her dream.

The rest will be up to her but someday when you see her on the cover of magazines you will be able to say to people there. “That’s Hallie Miller; I helped her get her start!”

If that’s not worth a vote I’d like to know what is?
