When I was about 8 or 9 I won my first radio contest. It was a 6-pack of Apple Slice – a fruit flavored soda that doesn’t exist anymore. From the moment I was handed my prize, I knew I wanted to be the guy who gave out free stuff on the radio. I’m married and have 3 kids so that’s the life I lead while they’re all awake. But, as soon as they’re all in bed, that’s when I revert to my 19 year old self and play video games, drink Mountain Dew and eat buffalo wings until my eyelids give up on me. I thrive on anything weird and oddly enough, I also really love to cook. Let me rephrase that – I love watching the Food Network and think I know how to cook. I haven’t poisoned myself or my family yet so I think I’m in the clear. I'm an 80s protege so if you ever want to remissness on the decade of awesomeness, or just want to talk about cooking, video games or whatever, definitely drop me an email. And if you're on PSN: @johnblueriggs  so we can play online together

Should Yakima Have A Truck Route?

How many times has this happened to you: You're waiting on a red light to turn left heading north on 40th and Summitview, Tieton or Nob Hill. Then, an 18-wheeler turns right, only it needs to make a wide, right turn, coming close to scratching your car or forcing you to back-up just so they can make that turn. Is this fair to you?
