Chris Baker just announced a Houston-area Rally for America - Saturday, March 1, at (I think) Jones Hall. More details to follow!

[Xenalyte]

Who am I forgetting? Major Houston-area ping!

[Ron H.]

Thanks. I turned him off right at 5PM as I closed my shop so I missed his announcement. I heard him say he had an important announcement to come at 5 but these folks like to tease us listeners so much that I hardly can take them seriously anymore about their teases. Anyway, thanks. I'll try and search around for any details.

We need to do a push for this. If H.A.T. is interested I can lend a hand.

OK .... everyone Xena forgot, raise your hand!

                 Houston Rally for America bump!

[Ron H.]

I scoured KPRC 9.50AM radios website. They apparently haven't put up anything about it yet. Maybe by morning there'll be something up by then.

If anyone else knows the details then please clue the rest of us in.

Xena, thanks so much for the ping...I knew there would be a rally in San Antonio..indeed, have notified a few bloggers there, but was not sure there would be one in Houston.

I could SWEAR I pinged you! Damn, I'm gettin' forgetful in my old age.

[PetroniDE]

I agree... We need to push this hard....

Check the KPRC website for latest info. I am quite certain they will keep us updated.

[Humidston]

I am in. I am SOOOO in! And I plan to drag along at least 5 newcomers!

[PetroniDE]

Latest information that I have, courtesy of the announcement on the Chris Baker show.

Saturday, March 1st, 2003
Jones Plaza (near corner of Texas and Louisiana Streets)
12:00 N - 2:00 PM
Pat Gray, Chris Baker, and I assume other local talk shows host will appear. Chris Baker indicated that speakers have been arranged.

There goes my road trip to San Antonio....Quick, someone clone me so I can attend both.

More details later.

[PetroniDE]

An idea for this rally that will help us. On any signs we use, mention FreeRepublic and/or H.A.T. Remember those business card ideas? Print some out and hand it to some people. We will be surrounded by like-minded people and here is a chance to grew our numbers.

[Ron H.]

Thanks and an evening BUMP.

[eastforker]

You forgot me,but heck,I probably have to work anyway.Maybe we'll get a chance to meet at the next HAT chapter al-clayda hunt,untill then,I gotta keep Exxon running.

[Humidston]

You gotta stay here, Petroni. GOTTA stay with "family" doncha know!! Good idea about cards. LOTS OF CARDS!

[PetroniDE]

Somebody clone me....We need to get there early for several reasons.

1) Good position for the speakers
2) More time to meet people
3) More time to make more noise

[Action-America]

Sounds great.  I'll do my best to be there.

Now, let me take a guess.  From the various posts on this thread, can I assume that Chris Baker must be an announcer on KPRC?  Is he a conservative?  I was not aware that KPRC had any conservative hosts.  When Clear Channel bought them, their program quality went down hill fast and as a result, I haven't listened to their local programming since shortly after King John moved over to KSEV.  Have they changed for the better?

On another note, does anyone out there know of any wine that compares closely to a classic French Burgundy?  California wines are way to fruity.  The Spec's wine rep suggested an Italian Barbera wine, which isn't bad, but still leaves quite a bit to be desired.  After a lifetime of enjoying Burgundy wines, I know better than to expect to find something just as good.  I just want to find something close.

Could someone please help me and post this poll, it is in Texas Monthly and needs freeping and I don't know how to do it. Thought I'd ask here as it looks like there might be a bunch of Texans reading this. It is at http://www.texasmonthly.com/

[PetroniDE]

Well, let's go through the line-up.

5:00-9:00 Pat Gray (I prefer King John, but from what I have heard from Pat Gray, he is on the conservative side of center)

9:00-11:00 Glenn Beck (Haven't heard him too much, but I seem to like what I have heard, conservative side of center)

11:00-2:00 Rush Limbaugh (The God-Father of Conservative Talk Radio, 'Nuf Said)

2:00-6:00 Chris Baker (A bit sophmoric at times, but conservative side of center)

6:00-9:00 Sean Hannity (I like Laura Ingram - don't ask why. Sean is one of the best conservative talk show hosts anywhere)

9:00-12:00 Michael Savage (Getting near bedtime, but another good one)

12:00-2:00 Larry Elder (Don't know about him, and usually sleeping anyway).

I would say that KPRC has a conservative bent.

Can't help you with the wine, I am a Diet Coke person.
