@ST920 kensethAuditioning for community theater. Haven't been in a play in 11 years. News flash: I'm not that good! HahaThe Sports Department is hiring at @sportsradio1400. Interested in being a #sports producer? email: JamesKaska(@)http://t.co/GVx5Tss3Wc.
Retweeted by Jimmie KaskaEspecially sports games. They're the worst.Even the good games usually have glitches/bugs. Very rare that a game has relatively few bugs and is worth buying these days.The next XBox barely registers on my give a hoot scale. Just like the PS4. I'd be more excited if 95% of games weren't total crap.A Super Bowl at Lambeau Field sounds cool on paper, but cold in real life. Like really cold. @dpshowWhen I asked about a Super Bowl at Lambeau Field, one league official told me "Sure, when they move Lambeau to Florida." Oh.

@ceribillings so far. Eau Claire has lots to see. I live next to a bunch of trails, so that helps. Jess can't jog with me but we walk.@ceribillings I suppose, but I feel dumb for wasting all that time letting it get so bad. Thanks though, I figured you'd like that I run now@ceribillings nothing inspirational about letting myself go for almost a decade and mostly recently trying to fix that mistake. Kind of sad.I also managed to up my run-without-stopping distance to 3.25 miles. Then walked to Phoenix Park and back for another 4.5 miles. #fat#JustinBieber got 100,000 retweets for tweeting Live Life Full. That's just 3 random words. I will try now. Nipple squirrel ham
Retweeted by Jimmie KaskaI was 320 to start this year. So almost 100 off just since January 5. Crazy.According to my bathroom scale..I've lost 200# since 2010. I'll get the official weigh in tomorrow but if it's under 228, I'm there.Hoping everyone is safe in Oklahoma...Wow. It's hard to watch coverage on the news...I started walking and ended up here (@ Phoenix Park) [pic]: http://t.co/j2GaWigEws@JimOwczarski I tested out of it by having been a varsity member of Flambeau HS golf in 02. That sport lasted 1 yr at FHS, we were awful.I think I'm the only sportscaster in Eau Claire who doesn't golf. Or only sportscaster anywhere. I'm horrible at it.Watercooler is a best of today as I figure out how to deal with sunburn and the drawbacks of exercising in heat/humidityWhy the coach you play for - and the team that drafts you, makes all the difference in the NBA...http://t.co/DnzpdRM1bD

@DanoKubb @USAKubb I think @wqow got footage of me knocking something over. Either that or horribly whiffing on an easy shot@USAKubb it's a lot of fun. I'm glad I came out!Storm warning time. Love it.@thewsdelre board op. 7:25/hr, 1-4 nights per week, 4-5 hrs per shift@terveltd noWon my first ever @usakubb game. Helps to have a national champ on my team.

@thewsdelre hahaahaAnyways, Sim City. Love some of the new ways to play, hate being unable to terraform. Hate also the numerous bugs and glitches. It's broken.I tend to break video games, whether it's Madden (annually crummy/buggy/crashy) or Final Fantasy. I play weird or something.Video game tangent: Sim City is officially a disaster. I've tried playing it at different points since launch, and it's broken. Save your $.Got a raise at Nestlé today. Meanwhile, in radio, I've taken two pay cuts in the last six years. Then again, my job is easy. Sports!

@brandon_berg noIn return, I get to keep the sports package on the DirecTV. Seems fair.Just agreed with my fiancé, after 3 years of her bugging me about it, that I will get a tattoo after we get married. She has 4. I have 0.For you folks out there hoping to get into journalism, refrain from "asking" questions by using "talk about ..." & not asking a q. Lazy.

Walked a few miles. My scraped-up knee held up through flag football and the walk, but as soon as I sat on the couch I was gushing blood.@TalkRadioOwen I tend to just be myself. Better or worse. I'm not good at faking enthusiasm. Just ask my fiancé. #srchat@PMenardEmpire oh man. Lol.@PMenardEmpire mañana. Had to run after the show todayFlag football ended today with a last-second 57-56 loss.

I only made it a half mile before a bee sabotaged my jog. Feeling lazy right nowYes, I'm allergic to bees.A bee landed on me and I panicked while I was out running. I fell, gouged my knee, & limped back home. Knee looks like raspberry cheesecake.Congrats, Minnesota.

Of course every day is pretty much wing it..haha. I don't script anything. Not even ads. I suck at reading.It's after midnight and I've got nothing for today's Watercooler. It's not even "wing it Wednesday" yetLoiter Squad is usually the best show on Adult Swim. Tonight's episode was all over the place in terms of good/bad. Not the best episode.Seriously.
