Well, we've never set the definition of an "old fart" -- so here is a quiz to see if you qualify:

LOL! I'm among the oldest here and that is the exact same score I got @AllThatJazzZ . Never trust an on line survey.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Yes, thanks.


On the subject of old farts and why I assumed I was one, I've got a little story to tell that you might remember.

In the olden days when Dan Patrick ran the Houston talk radio market, we had it good here. We could listen to Rush live at 11 on 950 AM and catch it again on 700 AM (KSEV?) at 2 p.m. I was spoiled to this because I would get interrupted at work during Rush's show, and it afforded me the opportunity to hear what I'd missed.

My world took a hit when Dan left or restructured or whatever he did. We no longer had the rerun and, IIRC, Dan didn't call any of the shots anymore. Eventually some new owners/managers moved in and things really started changing. A lot of us were irked and weighed in. The new suits didn't appreciate that we didn't appreciate them, so they ragged on us. Someone referred to the previous format as "Old Fart radio." I'd be willing to bet it was Michael Berry, but I don't know that for sure. It does sound very Michael Berry-ish. BTW, you could tell that the new suits were so unfamiliar with Houston. I remember one traffic report when the reporter said there was heavy traffic at (whatever) Street and OST. The goober pronounced OST so that it rhymed with toast. Old Fart radio, my Texas tuches!

I remember those days very well myself. I was friend with Mike Richards and Kevin Price in the early days of KSEV and spoke with them regularly on that show.

Don't you think that sounds like a Michael Berry thing to say? He's not known to have a filter for the things he says. Not that that's a bad thing.  wink777

Dunno! I do know that I think Michael is the closest thing to Rush on the radio today. (Can't stand Buck and Travis.)

@Bigun

When he's focused on current events as opposed to jibber-jabber, he's really good. Unfortunately, Rush can never be equaled. Like you, I'm not a Clay and Buck fan. I don't know how that decision was ever made.

P.S. I was crazy about Mike Richards. I hope he's doing well. I don't think I remember Kevin Price.

Gotta go vote! Later, y'all.

Kevin Price ( Kevin is now here ) was Mike's partner on the show in the early days of KSEV.  After the Radio gig ended Mike went on to become President of the International Bible Society (now Biblica) and held that post for years. Last time I saw him he was really showing his age. Happens to all of us eventually.

I listen to classic rock as a rule. At one time (and maybe still)  there was a  Houston station that played classic C&W. I really enjoyed that when I drove that direction.

Of course, I also listen to classical, jazz, Big Band on my home stereo. Anything but rap or opera.

I'm glad
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e62p_K4-Cvcyou picked that particular dance. It was great!

How about this? (don't know if it will post...not good at it, lol.)

@berdie

A reminder of what I could do back in the day. Sigh.

Those were the days, my friend. We thought they'd never end. We'd sing and dance forever and a day. :laugh:

Number 6 of that old fart's quiz made me laugh.

If you had a kid, would you make them work over the summer? And the choices of work were all reading and writing stuff.

Ha! A real old fart would tell the kid "get out in that field and start haying!"

@berdie

 I was ready to correct you on your choice because  the ONLY group that played/sang disco music that was tolerable was the BeeGees,and that was only because they weren't really a disco group.

Imagine my surprise when I discovered who you named.

Not that I was ever temped to start wearing high  heels and white suits,though. I have always been more of a country,rock,and blues guy than anything else. Not only better music,but I didn't have to buy  any  costumes.

The BeeGees were great, because they had already made their oats in the 60's.

@Cyber Liberty

They were great because they were all insanely talented.

Yes, they were.  As you said, they where not a "Disco Band."  They already had a number of hits well before Disco.

I remember that some of my classmates had summer jobs working at a local truck farm. I assume that meant getting out in the fields and doing something - in the heat and humidity.

I like The Four Seasons, especially singing along with "Sherry." Their music doesn't make me want to dance, though.

And they all had their nuts cut off at the age of ten.
