Reporters

UncategorizedGrumpy1

Hello I’m self-appointed WLHA editorial director Dan Smith and here’s what makes me grumpy…News reporters who insist on telling me how to live my life. Don’t get me wrong, I’m all for a few tips about where to get this or that done…but do I really need tips on how to drive on icy roads from someone who got their license a week ago? Should I listen to advice about what to eat from someone who chugs an energy drink […]

Internet

Radio EditorialGrumpy0

The internet is the largest playground for robbers, crooks, and pirates. I’ve regularly get extortion emails…worded exactly the same that say unless I send them money—or bit coins that I don’t have laying around in the sofa cushions—they are going to release video of me doing something perverted. I don’t do my perverted stuff on my web cam. Or how about the invitations from some exotic woman from a distant land who needs my help—or more precisely my bit coins. […]

Lists

Radio EditorialGrumpy0

I’m self-appointed WLHA editorial director Grumpy Old Dan Smith and here’s what makes me grumpy. Journalists have a love affair with lists…five things you should know…five things you should do…five ways to avoid your in-laws…Here’s my list about what you need to know about—lists. Write your list on paper…you’ll lose it and trust me you’ll feel better. Don’t you need to know something before you start you list with: “five things you should know about…” If we did everything on […]

Junk Drawers

Radio EditorialGrumpy0

I’m self-appointed WLHA editorial director Grumpy Old Dan Smith and here’s what makes me grumpy. If you’ve lived in the same place for a while chances are you have at least one junk drawer. It’s that miscellaneous space where all the stuff that you’ll never use lives. A ball of twine, a few tubes of old glue, dead batteries in all denominations, the 49 card deck of cards for which no game exists. At my house I can count at […]

Nice

Radio EditorialGrumpy0

Here’s what makes me grumpy. People who say, “have a nice day.”  Sometimes they substitute “great,” “good,” “blessed” for nice or how about the similar “have a good one.” Have a good one what? When someone admonishes me to have a nice day it puts a lot of pressure on me. Take today for example. My only real duty today was to go to the post office. My visit started with a long line where, I swear, everyone was applying […]

Dozing

Radio EditorialGrumpy1

Here’s what makes me grumpy: People who criticize someone for dozing off.  Face it: We sapiens doze. We senior sapiens can doze anywhere: family gatherings, church, in the middle of a conversation—but is dozing bad? Of course not. Do what I do: Change what others may call dozing to something that sounds like it’s good for you. Mindful meditation, power napping, energy boost. Let’s face it, you feel better after a doze. So you missed out on some pretty boring […]

Celebrity

Radio EditorialGrumpy0

Celebrity This is WLHA’s self-appointed editorial director Grumpy Old Dan Smith and here’s what makes me grumpy. Celebrities. There are celebrities that deserve our attention for the extraordinary things they do. And there are celebrities who just decide to be celebrities—kind of like modern presidential candidates. Get a look, a web site and an attitude and boom: you’re an instant celebrity. You may at some point get asked to do something we can actually celebrate—like catch a ball, run for […]

Let’s get grumpy

UncategorizedGrumpy0

I’m excited to join the staff at WLHA, the Big 64, internet radio station as their self-appointed editorial director (you can appoint yourself if you know the owners). WLHA used to be a University of Wisconsin student radio station. It’s since been revived by alumni of the station, who seem to have too much time and their hands. The music is great and sometimes the humor is even funny. It’s easy to find at your favorite app store or check […]
