You like that.

You like that? God do I have to get up for work already? Ladies and gentlemen we have on the phone here with us a man that if you've been paying attention to the words that come out of my mouth for many years, you should be very familiar with.

He's a broadcaster, a long-time broadcaster in the Portland area and Salt Lake City.

Well, the Utah area.

At one point he went by the name Rick Taylor, now he goes by Rick Emerson, his God-given name. And if you're... Rick ladies and

it's gentlemen Rick Emerson.

You know it's like I have this Pavlov dog reaction.

listening right there I listened to the last week and then I've been slowly

going through that last month just to kind of parse it out for myself.
