Thanks for dropping by to say hello.
I have been in Houston for 16 years and have been lucky enough to be at the same station, 93Q.
My radio career spans 35 years in various markets such as New Orleans and New York. I have a wonderful family. My wife's name is Pam and my two sons are Talley and Chris. My hobbies include flying flying and then some more flying. I own my own airplane which is a Bonanza V-tail. Circa 1960. Cruises at 180 mph and is fun to fly. I also love long walks on the beach and brie. I cry everytime i watch the Wizard of Oz. My fav part is where Dorothy is saying goodbye to everyone and she tells the scarecrow she will miss him the most. My fav tv performer is Richard Simmons. I sweat to the oldies everyday. I'm a big Vicki fan from One Life to Live. Can't get enough of her.
My true love is Renee Zelwegger but she won't return my calls...oh well. c'est la vie. I have been out of prison for a short while and the work release seems to agree with me. Your prayers are requested. I am writing this by the way from my lazy boy in my basement after driving home from the pizza pit, my second job, in my Hyundai. Well let me run. Mom is yelling that dinner is ready so I must go...Please drop by again or check me out online....Peace. Out.
Cactus Jack

Thank You,
markrobertsigns@gmail.com - Horseback RidigHello old friend, been a long time since we worked together at 93Q but what great memories. One that really stands out is when we did the live broadcast on horses for the Rodeo. As I recall, Cactus Jack had not been on a horse and to his shock he got thrown that day. To his credit, he got back on the horse and finished his shift. Cactus Jack is nothing if not professional and fun, of course. Good to see you!
