Howdy. It's been my distinct pleasure to be in radio since I was just a kid. The fact that I've never really had to work for a living is a big comfort. I started in a small station in Thermopolis, WY and never looked back. I've pretty much always been enamored with small market radio. It's a profession that allows you to do nearly every single job, and hopefully excel at most of them. I'm proud to be associated with such a GREAT country station as KCGY Y95. Southeast Wyoming, Northern Colorado and Western Nebraska are truly fortunate to have such great quality Country 24/7. I'm always happy to throw the older stuff in with the top 20 selections we bring you. Thanks for listening the THE BEST COUNTRY IN THE COUNTRY. AND GO POKES!

Should Laramie try for State Basketball? – Survey of the Day

Should UW Replace the Wyoming Family Statue? – Survey of the Day
I read with interest the article mentioning that there had been discussion on replacing the Wyoming Family Statue in the middle of Prexy's Pasture. I was personally taken aback; the statue has been a fixture on the campus for many years and I wanted to see everyone's opinions on the issue.
