HOMETOWN MEMPHIS: THE AIR WAVES (265 hits)


HOMETOWN MEMPHIS: June 12, 2009

WAVES OF SNOW
June 12, 2009
Memphis, TN

Waves of snow will grace it's presence on televisons today as thousands of Memphians will be left with a snow screen on their television sets. About 86,000 people in Memphis will be left without no televison reception today as analog waves goodbye and digital waves hello! These waves of affection will also be in about 2.2 million homes today. That dump of snow will fry over those who have not prepared themselves with a digital converter; and also a digital converter antenna. Government coupons are still available until July 31, 2009. So if you're "in the snow" call one of the numbers to see if you can get a haul out. 1.888.CALL-FCC OR 1.888-388-2009.

"I can remember the signal of the old days when the TV went off, but without that new high tech box and antenna, "You'll be completely SNOWED!"

MIISRAEL, Are you waving a joke at us?

Nawh! Uh...UH!...Read This...

THIS IS WHAT IS SOUND LIKE WHEN BALLS FLY!
June 11,2009
Memphis, TN

Balls started flying yesterday at the fast start of The St. Jude Classic Golf Tournament. The Golf Classic leader Brian Gay led with Score 64 and -6 Par. Followed closely by Jimmy Walker Score 65 and -5 Par. Gay stated that he felt it was a solid start and he had a good day. The St. Jude Classic raises millions for the Children of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. It's an annual event and highly publicized on national news and televison networks all over the country. Golf balls will be flying again today as the tournament continues. For tickets to the tournment visit: stjudeclassic.com Tickets are $35.00 For what it's worth, I used to work there. Now it's all behind me in the air.

I can hear those balls sounding in the air!
Really though, I don't know anything about golf. "But you don't have to to write about flying golf balls!" "Did you know I saw a news story about a dog that ate golf balls and had to have surgery to remove them!' He couldn't go to the bathroom!

THE OFFICIAL PAPER IS WAVING IN AIR
June 11, 2009
Memphis, TN

Mayor Willie Herenton has officially sent his paper to run for congress. He filed his papers and sent them sailing in the air by Federal Express. The mayor is serious! He will challenge present congressman Steve Cohen for the 9th District seat at the August 2010 Democratic primary. The two once alies will be up in the air on who will win this approaching race. It's sure to be a vote fight. Because Herenton is black and Cohen is white, no one is thinking it'll be a racial fight. Voters are focusing on the one best to fill the upcoming seat. Right now, the winner is just hanging in the AIR WAVES!

"I'm not sure if I should wear a scarf, go or fly a kite?

Go fly a kite, MIISRAEL!

You talking to me!...Okay! So long as you bring some string...
Put your hands up for this next story...

WAVE YOUR HANDS IN THE AIR!
June 11, 2009
Memphis, TN

University of Memphis had 172 students waving their hands yesterday as they were present at the New Student Orientation held at Fogelman College of Buisness. Students waved their hands in a "swearing in ceremony" as they'll enter as new students in the next session. The two day event waved them with several sessions from academic advising, services and on campus living and activities.

"Hold your hands up and repeat after me."
No, not you ---The students! .... That's what was said to the students!

The reception of this issue is becoming blurred with snow! It's the AIR WAVES..
Thanks for waving bye. I'm outta here! "Give me that string for the kite will ya?"

Tell me how can I watch with no AIR.... How am I suppose to see with no AIR...no AIR! ....no AIR!....no AIR WAVES....

After writing this blog, there were not only people in Memphis without air waves of television, a strong wind storm came thru and knocked out power for over 40,000 home. After several days, power has not be restored to many home. Read more...See my news blogs "The Power of the Storm" and "The Hot House" for updates on the storm that shut down power and air waves for many Memphians. Yours truly included. Talk about no air waves , it was hot. No air conditioner or electricity either.
