Morning Radio

I had the most amazing commute today, Rick Show-ers!
Flipping through the stations on my radio, I heard a DJ say "and now we're going to talk to someone who changed their name from Rick.  I don't know why you'd do that.  I think Rick is one of the coolest men's names."  And then this fella is on the phone, and he says "Actually, I changed my name TO Rick.  I'm 40 and people still call me that." and proceeds to tell how when he was a kid he had a nickname that wasn't very good ("buglit" or something) and then one day at a Rick Springfield concert a girl asked him his name and Rick was the first thing that came to mind so he went with it.  He's been Rick ever since!  They asked what his birth name was and he said James Richard, so technically his Rick is legit (which the smart hosts did note).  And then one of the hosts says "Well, you made the right choice, I think."   And then I was at work.  Now I just wish I knew why they had that story in the first place.

    Maybe I can contact KDAT 104.5 and ask them for more info on this story...

    First off, the number of posts this week is insane!!! Second, assuming this Rick is local we could possibly have our first in-person interview? I bet Bill Adams would help with video and/or photography for it?

      I can't control the news, only report it.

      I think a first-hand interview would be a great idea!!! Bring him over. Give him a nice batch of cookies. He'll be as happy as a ham!!! (Is that a saying? It doesn't make much sense to me.)
