Driving around Sacramento in my capacity as a building
materials salesman in the mid 80s I would flip on KFBK
and there was this guy who kept saying things I was thinking.
At times I would think out ahead and next thing I knew he
was expressing those points too. Rush kicked ass in
Sacramento and I began to see Rush on some local TV programs.
When Limbaugh announced he was moving to NYC and going
national all of his loyal Sacto area listeners knew he
would take the country by storm and own the airwaves.
That is the kind of impact he had. And, he made
millionaires out of more than a few advertisers.
Good story.

A friend of mine here in Houston told me about a guy on the radio who I would really like. He must have just gone national, I found him and I have been a fan ever since!
