MY MEDIA EXPERIENCES

It all began with my name appearing in Happy Time Page of the Sunday Telegram. Then I was a Sunday Telegram paperboy with Dad driving me around the neighborhood. I was getting my feel of what newspapers were. In high school I didn't fare well. Mrs. Murphy confided years later. "I didn't give many A's.. It was at Worcester Junior College where Princeton-trained Robert C. Gould, English professor recognized me as  "a  B Student.'. Earlier at St. Joseph School I won spelling Bees.

I have always enjoyed writing, taking photographs, and later becoming a freelance...free to do what I want...where I want.. and why I want. I love being independent. In my quest for becoming somebody, I delight in politics.. Just ask Sons Ben and J.Byron. I  continue to grow in in growing and wisdom. My new HP All-In One makes it very easy. My experience factor grew exponentially in the Nineties. I wrote, and I grew, and discovered how much fun it is to be a freelance.

From John Chancellor in New Hampshire and GHWB #43 to quizzing the late David Broder in Laramie to having breakfast with VP Dick Chaney was wonderful as I look back.The dean of Journalism, David Broder spoke and I listened carefully. Broder said ' WE LIKE A GOOD FIGHT IN POLITICS.' Name calling is a way of our contests. Clearly, big shot Trump is a maser at the put Down. That can only go so far.

JFK's eloquence, enthusiasms, vision, youth and wife thrilled me as I emerged as an adult. In my life I have witnessed all kinds of public speakers and politicians. New Hampshire is great for bloggers and reporters. I don't claim to be any more than what I am..a proud father, a proud grandfather and a blogger with almost 9 years experience with over 5,000 entries crafted. I love it.

So where we all going with this new era of communication? Is it back to basics or is it "The Now."
I love learning and yes, I love earning... enough to keep the wolfe at a distance from my door. We  must keep up with life or our grand kids will distance us. Not good. Love They Grandkids!"
Reading and writing will remain tantamount. 'Get a new dictionary...get with it!" I can teach you.

Repeat after me; 'I Love Life!"
