A flash back to my radio years: I was going through audio files this morning and came across a recording of my live broadcast announcing my neice Alexandra's birth. I couldn't help but wonder what I would say if my son was born today. For those that didn't know me during my stint behind the microphone my air name was "Chris Carmichael." I'm so thankful for the station. I actually met Emily while I was broadcasting live at a church event. After a bit of research I tracked her down and asked her "out." The date was an exhilarating road trip full of deep discussion and instant attraction. I sang the ending song to Emily on our first date. Thankfully she was charmed by my doo-rag, pierced ear, soul patch, and dimples more than my song selection! :-) The cool thing! She had a camera that day. Below is an actual picture of our very first date!
Oh, and thanks to Dad Bill for ensuring my presence at the Thanksgiving table each year!

Oh Chris, my memories just came rushing back and it was so wonderful..... I remember that CD.
Now the tables are turned and you are the Dad... Can't wait to hear what you will have to say when your little guy is born.....
Thank you for the walk down memory lane.
Oh please, PLEASE post some more radio clips! I died laughing hearing that wonderful "Radio Voice" again. It was great for Joe to hear as he wasn't around during those days to listen to the mid-day Crunch like we all did. I remember calling in, visiting you during the day (deliberating about going on the Belize missions trip..I have a pic somewhere of it too!!), also remember meeting you for the 1st time at Meg's in Roscoe. Remember??? Ha, so funny. Also, makes me miss the rides in the back seat of jeep and Sunday night Housewives feasts! Love you!
Ahhhh thanks for the trip down memomy lane. I'm with Shirl. I sure would love to be able to turn on Q and find the infamous Chris Carmichael on the air again. Never been even close to that good since. I believe I was was in attendance at that church event and I do do do remember the Dooooooorag. "Hey Chris do a little radio voice for us!"
