Sometimes you just need to find the funkiest, nastiest, grooviest tracks that are buried deep, deep, deep in your record collection, dust them off, and blast them at full volume to whoever is in the general radius. So on today’s K-Chuck Radio, I’m doing just that. This is a batch of 45’s that are just…

I’m really getting sick of this …
So there’s some chuds in Kentucky who, over the weekend, participated in the recent St. Jerome Catholic Charities Picnic, which is the unofficial start of the Kentucky political season. Sure enough, Kentucky Senator and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell addressed the crowd at the gathering. Meanwhile, during the event, there were some – shall we…
Read MoreComputer Answers saved my bacon … one more time!
So last week, I was working on a project … and I dropped my power drill. I dropped it – and it landed on the floor. Well, it didn’t land completely on the floor … it landed on something that was already ON the floor. It landed on the back of my laptop. Oh crap.…

A trip through the Old Game Farm in Catskill
It’s Saturday morning and I’m on a scouting spree. Let me explain. In 2006, the Catskill Game Farm closed operations, and all the animals inside went to new homes.

Every so often in our lives, we come across images of things from our past. And we want to do something with those images. For me, it took a lot of procrastination – but then, just out of nowhere, I created something. And I hope you like it. For more than 50 years, Hoffman’s Playland…
