If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!My worst blowout, at least non work-related, was in the 80’s on a Chicago expressway. Roger Penske would have been pleased with my tire changing speed. Several adjacent lanes of maniacal drivers will really keep you focused.

There’s a guy I work with at WRTV also named Paul. Actually there are somewhere around a half dozen people at the station named “Paul.” It’s an odd statistical imbalance. I don’t run into a lot of Paul people outside of the building. Maybe I need to get out more? Boy, this post is rambling. […]

Singing And Stretching Together
June 25th, 2008 1 Comment
Tom Davis and I have the honor of leading the 7th inning stretch today at Victory Field, as the Indianapolis Indians take on Bisons. Hopefully, it won’t be a 7th inning retch. In today’s OTC we received important pre-song training from experienced public singer Grace Trahan.
(POST STRETCH UPDATE)
Here’s the Indianapolis Indians video feed of this crucial moment […]

Re-live the initial shock.
Shave it for a rainy day.
The viewers/streamers speak.

Stashe Flash
June 17th, 2008 No Comments
The unfortunate part about being multi-media is that there are many ways for people to reach me to tell me this ridiculous mustache looks…uh…ridiculous. They are responding through polls at the indychannel, WMDH radio, and via emails from the Cuff mailbox, the Good Morning Indiana mailbox, the “weather” mailbox at indychannel, paul@paulpoteet.com, my indychannel email…oh, […]

Hair Today
June 17th, 2008 No Comments
So I decide to relax my rules regarding personal grooming while on vacation. That’s what time off is for, right? My mustache remained today on WRTV and Off The Cuff. Response is, uh, mixed. No, it’s 70/30-ish negative. Maybe 80/20. Go to the Indychannel’s home page to vote. They are also taking a poll over at wmdh.com. MDH posted […]

Back Home Again In Indiana
June 16th, 2008 1 Comment
We left town for a week just as floods were ravaging (floods always Ravage in News-speak, just like fires always Blaze.) southern Indiana. Sure enough, the last 10-15 minutes of drive back home last night featured a nasty thunderstorm. Flipped the radio dial to 87.7fm to hear Channel 6, and Kevin Gregory was on with […]

Cell Show #32: Happy Anniversary Smiley
June 11th, 2008 No Comments
How about a break? A Flash Back instead of a Flash Flood? I’m no Ryan Seacrest (first of all, I use my real name) but I did snag WZPL’s Dave Smiley back stage at the Music Mill for about a minute of mindless banter a few weeks ago during his 6th Anniversary Party/Concert.

You Can Help

My television home base is putting on a telethon for flood victims. Watch RTV6 Tuesday night at 7:30 to help. Details here. The article gives locations where you can drop off your cash both in Indy and Columbus. If none of that works for you, just go to the Indiana Red Cross and donate online. (You’re already […]
Flood Of Info
June 8th, 2008 No Comments
Flooding rains are responsible for at least two deaths in the southern half of Indiana. It’s the worst flooding I can remember in my many years in the area, and I hope the forecast for Monday is totally wrong, and we won’t see any more storms. The indychannel has the latest on evacuations and shelters, along […]

Two Fer Tuesday

Steve Morris of 106.9 WXXC has promised that his morning show is REALLY starting this week, after a few months of Dress Rehersals. (Steve, can I take off that dress now?) If he really wants to bring the “A” game, he should do something about his weatherman.

In A Rut

Just a few days after destructive tornadoes, there’s another Tornado Watch, and a threat for severe weather…mainly in southwest Indiana through the afternoon. All the details here, as well as RTV-6, the indychannel, and your favorite radio stations. (Hint: those should be the ones that pay me.)
