The Sewers
Posted by TIM BEGGS on May 7, 2008
It still might be early, but HELP!! The Brewers need it. My buddie Mezzie would refer to that baseball team in Milwaukee as the Sewers. That was a few years back when wins were rare for the Crew. Seems like old times again, as the Brewers continue to struggle on ...

Gear Bustin' Sort of a Feller
Posted by TIM BEGGS on May 6, 2008
I've always liked the classic truck driving songs. Dave Dudley (Wisconsin product) is right up there at the top of my list. You can't dispute Red Sovine when it comes to truckin' numbers. I remember my college football days with the Orediggers of Montana Tech. We'd travel abroad through the ...

People have asked me if I always wanted to be in radio when I was a kid. I guess I did. We have a big family and shared bedroom space with my brother Pete who would get mad when I listened to the radio at night. So I got a ...

Flu Fun
Posted by TIM BEGGS on April 7, 2008
2 weeks ago I made the comment about not getting the flu this winter. At that time I was almost confident that I'd escaped the cold and flu bug this year. Open mouth and insert foot here. Well I was wrong. I got the flu and I got it good. ...

Fish Belly White
Posted by TIM BEGGS on March 24, 2008
After dinner we enjoyed a nightcap or 2 and I fired up a fine Dominican cigar. It's great to be on vacation I remember thinking. I've never traveled like this in the middle of winter, but I'm already thinking that it's a great time to go somewhere warm when Wisconsin ...

Ryan Flight 1440
Posted by TIM BEGGS on February 26, 2008
The pre-flight announcements are heard throughout the cabin of the aircraft. We thought this time would never come. I've got just enough room to sit down and with some effort get my seatbelt to connect. (big breath) I'd say we were packed in like sardines, but I think even they ...

The BIG Game
Posted by TIM BEGGS on January 28, 2008
Since my picks have fizzled I thought I'd throw in my 2 cents regarding the Big Game this weekend. I lost with the Packer/Giants game. Like most folks around here I thought Green Bay was a "lock" over the G-Men. It's been a week and I'm over the Packer loss. ...
