Neal was off today and that is always strange. You get used to having someone there sharing ideas with you and reacting when you say something. When he takes a week off it usually takes me until Wednesday to get used to it and by the time I adjust….he comes back!
Neal will be here tomorrow but I will be off for two days. My oldest son, Doug, is graduating from Navy Boot Camp and we are making the trek to Great Lakes, IL. A 15 hour drive! “Are we there yet?”
On today’s show we talked about St. Patrick’s Day with author Patrick Taylor. He has a series of books out, the latest being “A Dublin Student Doctor.” He was funny. He reminded me that St. Patrick’s Day is more of a religious holiday in Ireland and more raucous here in America. When I asked him if I should have corned beef and cabbage for dinner he said, “You can, but I wouldn’t want any.” Again it’s an American thing.
The New York Times had a Personality Profile:WHAT YOUR NCAA BRACKET SAYS ABOUT YOU
The Favorites Bracket: You select favorites to win nearly every game.
WHAT IT SAYS ABOUT YOU: You feel that societal order must be preserved at all costs, and that disagreeing with the wisdom of the selection committee is the first step toward anarchy.
The Underdogs Bracket: You love a good upset and see no reason Norfolk State cannot make the Round of 16 this year.
WHAT IT SAYS ABOUT YOU: You truly believe that one person can change the world.
The Out-of-Date Bracket: You overrate teams that were powerhouses about 20 years ago.
WHAT IT SAYS ABOUT YOU: Back in the early 1990s, you were single and had leisure time and disposable income to spare, so you spent winter evenings at the local tavern, hoisting beers and thrilling to games. But now you have a family and a serious career, leaving you with little time for college basketball, but you cannot bring yourself to admit that.
The Nickname Bracket: You pick the team with the coolest nickname to win every game.
WHAT IT SAYS ABOUT YOU: There are two possibilities. The first is that you are female and attractive. The second is that you are an ironic hipster who does not fill out a bracket so much as "fill out a bracket."
We had no winner with the Impossible Question so Neal will try again tomorrow. The question is/was: Though people are cutting back in many ways, close to 45% of people are doing this more. What is it? Call in at 7:38am with your answer.
Tomorrow's special guest is Dr. Gregory Jantz. The topic is What’s Wrong With Your Teenager? He'll be on at 8:22am.
I’ll be back on Monday, take care!
