I'm not being sarcastic, when I say that; that was how every one of my own layoffs turned out, a few months afterward! As stressful as they were at the outset, the end product improved my life.<br /><br />And special best wishes for the future to Mike Amatori. I've admired your clever wit and considerable talents from afar, for two or three decades. That includes some of your lesser known work at Altamont Raceway Park, several years back.Del Thomasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-75279302537482486862016-04-01T10:20:01.455-07:002016-04-01T10:20:01.455-07:00I figured that the FBI would be preparing a case a...I figured that the FBI would be preparing a case against Hillary Clinton before KGO ever went away...oh, wait.Danny Repailianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-5094004971656253722016-04-01T01:53:17.111-07:002016-04-01T01:53:17.111-07:00Rich likely knows way more than me here.

Have tried to listen to Ronn but there are more commercials than Ronn. I switched to 910 am after finding Gil Gross. I love to listen to those voices. My heart goes out to the news team! So many of them have been there for years.. The lack of loyalty saddens me.. As far as KGO, the station gets what it deserves & hoping the ratings continue downward. This was a great station taken into the lower ranks of radio. And I truly believe KGO firing Gene Burns, is what killed him.....Heceta56https://www.blogger.com/profile/03724041135522608288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-86992618488892306812016-03-31T15:28:45.900-07:002016-03-31T15:28:45.900-07:00Phil--Not much left to change to.
