I am here for Friends

About Me

I'm a retired broadcaster from radio and now living out the rest of my days on a chicken ranch in Bumpus Mills, TN. It's a far cry from reporting world events and interviewing forgein dignitaries. When the world went digital my career went south. Life here in A Land Between The Lakes is easy and laid back. The locals are fun and not in any hurry. I have now taken over the local newspaper called The BM Gazette with all the news that isn't news and even if it was it isn't.
