Stop the Ringing!


So long, 2011. Let’s bring on the new year. The last few posts have been few and far between; so sue me.

I go through cycles of obsession and revulsion with my interests: my four blogs included. Since October, blogging in general has been cast aside for the noise of the holiday season that began with Halloween and ended around January 9th. Last year still ringing in my ears, I swear ‘12 will be a moving forward year concerned with the here and now building a better future for my family. The Peanut Whistle will attempt to reflect the change.

2011 overwhelmed me with looking back at my past; so I have, at least metaphorically, turned down the static. I will continue to post articles that inform young readers who have an interest broadcasting based on my old war stories (after all, that is the subject of this blog.)


Speaking of blogs, let us welcome into the Peanut Whistle archive all of last year’s posts from the Board and Gospel Aircheck, both of which I have discontinued. I’ve cut back the workload from 4 to 2 weblogs.

As promised, I will tell about my most recent radio related foray which unfolded last Autumn. With some of the events yet to play out, it seemed premature posting it. In fact, the experience soured me on the radio subject in general. (This may be the reason this blogger needed a sabbatical.)

Stay tuned
