If I had a theme song it'd be: Boy, that's tough… Are we talking about a song that was playing every time I walked through the doors at work? If that's the case, I think that the theme to "Rocky" would be cool. If I was heading out to a bar and "Just a Gigolo" came on, that'd be pretty cool too (my wife probably wouldn't think so though). An overall/general theme song? Probably... that tough...?

Originally from: Sandwich, IL

I now reside: Rock Island, IL

My first...

**Live musical concert: Stevie Ray Vaughn and Double Trouble with special guests The Fabulous Thunderbirds at Poplar Creek Music Theater

**Audio Purchase: "Take the Long Way Home" 45" single by Supertramp or "Don't Stand So Close to Me" 45" single by the Police. I'm pretty sure that I bought them both at the same time at Fox Valley Mall in Aurora, IL.

**Paying job: My first paying job was mowing my neighbor, Grandma King's (not my real grandma), yard. It took me about an hour and I made $6 every time I mowed it. She had a great looking yard! My first job working for "the man" was Mc Donald's.

When away from the radio station, you may find me: Playing Disc Golf, working in my gardens or doing home improvement projects.

When I get the chance to eat out, I enjoy: Chinese and Italian.
