Back again

Back from vacation now. Hope your Fourth was fun and not too soggy.

Naturally, I missed a few things while I was gone.

KRDO-FM went "Cat Country" while I was away, complete with their own theme song. This explains why Citadel ops manager Bobby Irwin kept chortling when he said they would "let the cat out of the bag" at the end of the week. They seem to be playing a different music mix than KCCY or KKCS. We'll have to see how that settles out.

KOAA/Channels 5&30 ran into more problems with high definition. Some $100,000 piece of equipment didn't work when they turned the system on on Thursday, so they need to order a new one. New target date is end of July.

Let me give you a target date of my own: The NFL Hall of Fame Game -- Oakland vs. Philadelphia -- 6 p.m. Aug. 6 on, you guessed it, NBC. Sure, it's a crappy pre-season game, but it will be NBC's first HD football game.

Any other fun going on?
