Alright, first things
first...why radio?
I was unemployed and my wife always thought I did a good job talking up the crowd in
the band I played in. She talked me into going to broadcast school.
The word is that you enjoy wearing stripes.
Ya, I umpire softball and reff football. And I collect major and minor league baseball
hats.
What about movies and TV?
Well for movies, 'Used Cars,' 'Return of the Jedi,' 'Major League' and 'Apollo 13.' And
for TV, 'Voyager' is up there and so is 'Beyond 2000,' 'Wings' and the 'History Channel.'
Since you reff, you must be into sports, who do you root
for?
The Seattle Seahawks and Mariners.
Let's shift to music, what was the first concert you ever
went to?
Oh that's easy, Electric Light Orchestra at the Paramount in Seattle. The band used
white electric violins and cellos.

Rockin' Ron's "there's only 1 other person on that
desert island but you" list:
1. Johnny Unitas - The hall of fame quarterback from the Colts. This guy has been my
hero since I was old enough to say 'football.' It would be nice to talk with him about the
'golden age' of football.
2. The owner and developer of the AVON raft company.
3. Kathy Ireland. Just in case the raft guy turns out to be the marketing genius and not
the engineering genius.
