| In Jan. 1981, through the combination of right place, right time and a real need...I became creator of America's very first classic rock station...WYSP in Philadelphia. Without the help of a personal computer (they didn't exist), but using 3x5 color-coded index cards in a manual but still-effective song rotation system, I created, programmed and first DJ'd on this unique format. Playing 100% classic rock (old hits and album tracks) had never been tried. It was a blast!

He was hanged on a cross from large nails to suffer the slowest, most painful and barbaric death available. He could have snapped his fingers and stopped it at any time, but in accordance with His father's wishes/divine plan to save mankind, offered Himself as the ultimate sacrifice and took every believer's sins (past, present and future) upon HIMSELF. Free unconditional love! |
