A General Motors B-Platform Sedan with a Center and Lower-Band Two-Tone Paint Scheme, and missing Wheel Covers; located in Charlotte, North Carolina.
I am unable to determine if this Car has ever been repainted, or if this Car has been kept in immaculate condition for its entire life; with absolutely no rust on the body, and with the original Paint.

An article from a website that is owned and maintained by a fellow Radio enthusiast (Broadcast, DX, and Amateur/Ham) about mitigating interference as far as AM/Mediumwave and Shortwave signals are concerned.
I, the owner of this very Blog; already knew that buildings can obstruct AM/Mediumwave and Shortwave signals, and can hinder a person and his or her Radio Receiver’s ability to receive any AM/Mediumwave and Shortwave signals if buildings are in the way.
I am relaying this information about Radio Interference to those of you who are far less knowledgeable about Radio, Radio Engineering, and the Radio Spectrum than people such as I, the owner of this very Blog; and the owner of the other website both are.

Sadly, a Radio Announcer and Program Director who is an American of Italian descent, who had fulfilled his childhood dream of working in Radio; is retiring as of the time of writing this post.
This Announcer and Program Director in question, by the name of Jim Graci; had worked at KDKA-AM as the Program Director after Westinghouse (mainly because of their Group W Broadcasting Division) and CBS had merged into one entity, had also worked in the Miami, Florida market; and is retiring from the Jacksonville, Florida market.

The Television Program Titled “Intervention” On The Cable Channel A&E, As Of The Time Of Writing This Post; Featuring Young And Middle-Aged Ponytail And “Man Bun” Males As The Subjects Of Their Episodes At This Time.
Many of these Drug Addict males, and some of the young and middle-aged male Interventionalists are also covered in tattoos.
Cases in point are the male Interventionalist from Australia by the name of Mike Diamond, fellow Interventionalists Zach Livingston, Vicki Lucas, and Michael Gonzales; and Drug Addicts by the names of Gabby, Patyrk, and Greg.
See this earlier post about Television Programs On The Cable Channel A&E Featuring, And Catering Towards Low-Class People for the type of programming, and the demographics the Cable Channel A&E currently has as of the time of writing this post.
The Cable Channel A&E was formed in 1984 as a joint venture between ABC and NBC, with the merger of ABC’s ARTS Cable Channel; and NBC’s ‘Entertainment’ Cable Channel. NBC (which, along with its parent company RCA; were both under the ownership of General Electric by this time) had sold their shares in the Cable Channel A&E in 1993.

Some time ago, I wrote a post about The Recent Diagnosis Of ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease) Of WSAI-AM And WLW-AM Announcer Jim Scott.
As of the time of writing this particular post, I am melancholic to announce, and personally saddened by the passing of WSAI-AM and WLW-AM Announcer Jim Scott.
May Jim Scott rest in peace, and may us who at any point in our lives; were employed in the Commercial Broadcast Radio and Television Industry, and/or are passionate about the Broadcasting Industry meet with Jim Scott in Heaven, and in other celestial realms.
