    Don….if you listen carefully, you’ll hear it’s called Random Acts Of Donuts. It’s obviously a surprise, not a contest.

    You might want to dig a little deeper for relevant radio news Don. Besides, their website has a lot better videos than this one.

    Hey banger,

    Thanks for being the 8-millionth person to criticize me !

    She doesn’t remember winning the contest because she didn’t enter… that was kinda the point. But you go ahead and make yourself feel better by slamming on me. It seems to come with the territory around here of late.

    Next time you put together 14 blog posts in one night, drop me a line and I’ll swing by and tell you to dig a little deeper.

    And when you say “their” website – you mean “our” website, right?

    /end rant.

    Don’t let it get you down, Don. There are PLENTY that truly appreciate what you do. (Including me!)

    Hey Don,

    There are still folks out there who would complain if they were hung with a new rope. To some, slamming on others makes them feel superior. View it for what it is and keep up the good work. Blogs are like radio — no one of them can satisfy everyone. If they (critics) don’t like it, they can tune elsewhere.

    I’d like to complain that “DonsDad” hides his real name.

    Ken, next time we have lunch, do you want me to bring my BattleShip game again?

    Dave, if you were DonsDad, would you use your real name?

    Hey in Don’s defense, did anyone see him do the live weather report a week or so back with Dee Sarton? Yes, Don was there on set giving a blow by blow on the thunderstorms that ripped through the Boise valley…. No one seems to mention that one did they…. Look out Rick Lance….here comes DON….

    Hey Don… how about you post that video here? I’d love to see it. Tell you what, do that and I’ll find the video I have of Captain Mike trying out to be the next weekend weather guy at KTVB. He did that some 10-15 years ago.

    Sorry Mike.

    Fortunately, my weather hit (dripping wet in casual clothes) isn’t on tape or in a computer anywhere because we’d just taken a power hit. So it didn’t happen.

    Can we talk about something else now? :)
