Breakfast Club 8/4/08

I know that I haven't blogged in AGES, and I apologize for that. Beginning this week, look for me to blog more here on KFIZ. I'm going to begin by trying to keep up to date blogging similar to how Wade does it everyday while I'm filling in for the Breakfast Club. I'm not quite as multi-functional as Wade, but I'll do my best! For those of you who are waiting for Wade Bates to return, don't worry, he'll be back next Wednesday. You'll just have to put up with me until then!

As always, your latest news, weather and sports are available at KFIZ.com
