Tony's guests and topics on today's show include:
Doing It Right
During Governor Frank Keating's tenure as chief executive of Oklahoma, he dealt with
shocking acts of terrorism and deadly tornadoes. He didn't whine, he didn't complain,
he and the feds got the job done. He'll explain how to handle disasters correctly.
Remembering September 11th
Lt. Col. Brian Birdwell is a survivor of the Pentagon attack on September 11th. He'll
remind us of the lessons we learned from that day and of the lessons we seem to have
forgotten.
Doing His Duty
Dedicated first responders often mean the difference between life and death for many
victims of disasters. We'll remember Stephen Siller, a New York city fireman who
answered the call to duty on September 11th, 2001.

"Woof" is used in broadcasting to say "stop," "that's enough" or to mark a specific point in time
-- which is what is done in this case. "Tony's show starts in 3 minutes: WOOF!" Means in 3 minutes from-- NOW!
LOL!!
Arrgggh. I cannot take the maggot thing. They would have to kill me. (I am a weenie.)
Oh My Gosh! Maggots? To late not to be graphic! ICK. This poor guy!
LOL! You have only to watch him on Fox News Sunday to get a better understanding of the answer to your question. :D
But I don't think that the Washington Managing Editor has the time or the inclination to add radio host to his list of responsibilities.
From what I understand , that treatment is used more & more these days!
Yep,that's what he said.
They use them to eat away the bad tissue to stifle an infection.
Old day medicine.:)
I know it's gross and it would make me squirm,but it saved his life.
Did you ever notice that Chuckie Schumer and Nasti Pelosi seem to have gone to the $1.98 acting school? They are such bad actors they probably flunked out of the School.
Put Juan across the studio from him...and he would let loose too. ; )
I hope he was on some pretty powerful meds.
Leeches are also used in some cases.
I'd probably let them do it if they knocked my big butt out and really knocked it out. I wouldn't want to wake up halfway through.
I can't begin to comprehend what this man has gone through! Happy he has his faith to sustain him!
He would make a great addition to FR!
roflol!
I agree.
Where do we sign him up?
The smell alone would kill me.
Where in the heck is Lt. Columbo when you need him? LOL!
Next they will be re-utilizing the 'blood-letting' technique for brain disorders.
My thought is that Washington is so full of people with faults, that these people give a pass to one another in hopes they will receive the same treatment if they get caught.
It is difficult to understand how this whole Berger affair was virtually ignored by the Media while they rant on about whether or not the Director of FEMA had a proper resume!
There seems to be some agreement about this :)
Yep.
We were noticing as we were cutting tape today that all senators seem to talk the same way. Like a metronome set on slow.
I know and I don't know what would be worse.EEWWW.
EEWWW! Don't bring up smell. My tummy is walking a delicate tight rope this morning! LOL
Maggots + wounds - this is a very old treatment that is now used is a controlled way. Actually it is a natural way of dealing with dead tissue.
1. National Guard, because Blanco initially only mobilized 1500.
2. The Red Cross (denied twice)
3. The Salvation Army
4. A Georgia medical team and mobil hospital, which was refused entry by Louisiana state troopers and then went to Mississippi
5. A large number of people with private boats, turned back by an officer of Louisiana Department of Wildlife, who told them they weren't needed. (Subsequently a smaller group was finally allowed in.)
6. Ham radio operators have an emergency respsonse group to aid in communications, who offered to assist and were declined by the state of Louisiana.
In addition, the federal emergency people (FEMA) have been there all along, contrary to press reports. They are now staying on the Iwo Jima. This information comes from a newsletter the commander of the Iwo Jima send out.
What we have here is either coordinated incompetency or, more likely, a definite plan to keep outsiders from entering the state. I will leave motive up to my own speculation and will not say what I think here.
In addition, Fox reports that the people staying in Baton Rouge are upset because while their relatives in the Astrodome have received the debit cards, they have received nothing. It seems to me that Louisiana doesn't want those people to get money, because then they can LEAVE THE STATE.
Sorry Tony. I wasn't being critical and I know you are not an incompetant idiot. I'll go to my corner now.
Theodoric of York!
After working in the Clinton admin., Burglar had great creditials to back up his pants-stuffing incident. If you have the creditials, you can get away with anything!
Sorry!
As gross as they sound, they can save lives of people with damaged (dead tissue) flesh.
[I saw a medical program about their use just a week or so ago. It was amazingly interesting. They consume only the dead tissue, and that gives the live tissue a better chance to regenerate and recover.]
#118........BINGO.
What absolutely blows my mind in all of this is that these were the fellow citizens of those that were in trouble and needed the help. Personally, I would have said orders be damned, come on in. WHY did they go along with such a stupid directive????
Yuppers!
ROTFLMAO!!!
I'm so glad other people remember that, too!
There were even Republicans that were sticking up for Sandy Burglar which was scary beyond words. Either you are a Burglar /thief with bulging socks or you are not. I also wonder why there was no scrutinizing of Sandy Burglar's credentials to be National Security DIrector for Clinton. He really had some huge mistakes during his tenure.
Those were the days when SNL was great!.
The official was armed. I believe I would hesitate to proceed when confronted with an armed government official.
LOL! Saturday Night Live in it's hay (hey?)day! I loved that skit!
I believe you, I guess faced with the alternative, I would give it a try. One of those things I would have to keep my eyes closed during.
Hillary would say "Take a deep breath."
I would say "Go for it!"
Morning.

Webmaster comment:
The following document was compiled and presented by a fellow LS-MVPA club member who could not sit idle in the immediate aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. Only in the days after this horrific natural disaster, has the magnitude and scope of the disaster come to light. I am proud one of our members stepped up and into harms way to provide what can only be described as basic necessities that have most probably saved hundreds if not more lives.--

Katrina Day 2: Tuesday, 30 August 2005
Spent several more hours trying to contact Tracy, to no avail. It just was not going to happen. The body count is increasing. The question now is: what can I do?
I am sitting at home in air-conditioned comfort, watching a disaster of biblical proportions unfold on the idiot box in the corner. I am a man of action, not talk - always have been and always will be. What action could I take? How could I personally make a difference to what was going on? Even inaction is a form of action, but it has never been my choice. Now the news is telling me that getting food and water to the survivors is the number one priority. I rarely agree with television talking heads, mainly because they are so liberal and also so ignorant about the world around them. I had to concede that, for once, they were right.
What do I do? A plan. A plan is a good thing and helps you anticipate difficulties before they become disasters. I would need transport. I personally own an ex-army vehicle called an M35A2, better known as a deuce and a half. It is 30 years old, has ten driven wheels and is still camouflaged in its original paint scheme. All 3 axles are driven and it is one of the best all-wheel drive off road vehicles in existence. It also has a large cargo bed, with a 5 ton load carrying capacity. Perfect for getting large quantities of food and water into remote areas with difficult terrain...
_________________________
...Because I was back in Texas, I had placed my weapon and holster in the glove box of the truck. I had also locked the passenger door so that no one could steal the weapon while I was in the gas station. I went to the back of the truck to get the many tools required to change my flat tire. As I was dragging the tools out, I heard voices next to the truck. I looked down the drivers' side towards the front. There stood three 'gangsta's'. All 3 were black and naked from the waist up. They were very heavily tattooed, all kinds of symbols and stylized block writing. They were young and wiry muscular and very fit looking. Their pants hung very low and several inches of underpants were showing. My gun was beyond reach, I had a ¾ inch ratchet in my hands, but I thought this is it John, you are dead meat.
The tallest oldest one looked at me and smiled. "Sir", he said, "we know what you done been doing". I didn't know what he meant. He told me he meant he knew I had come from New Orleans. How did he know? "You stink like the dead, man". Ahhh, I hadn't noticed. He wanted to shake my hand and thank me. Of course, grabbing a man's hand is the perfect set-up for punching him in the head. I had no choice. I grasped my 18" Craftsman tighter, and then I shook his hand. They asked what was I doing here. Flat tire. He asked why was I moving so bent over. I told him, I'm in a lot of pain.
He swore at me, then told his two brothers to get my tools off of the truck. I asked him what the hell was he doing? "We is changing your tire, old man, you go sit over there and watch. My Ol' Daddy would whup us all upside the head if he saw us watch an old man change a tire without helping".
What they lacked in experience, they sure made up with enthusiasm. All three were dripping with sweat within a couple of minutes, swinging that six foot cheater bar. T hirty minutes later they are almost finished, the spare is being hoisted back up the winch. The oldest one turned to me, "Sir", he said, "I know that you will now offer us money, but my Ol' Daddy would whup us all if we took it from you". I turned and walked back in to the gas station. I came out with another cup of coffee and three tall cold beers. I can't drink these beers. I'll just have to set them down here. They sat with me. I shook their hands and thanked them. "No sir", said the oldest, "we thank you".
Several hours later, I am back at my house. It takes 15 minutes for me to get down from the truck. Another five minutes to get in the house. I sit down and take a double dose of painkillers. What is wrong with my eyes? I'm crying. I just can't stop crying..
I could have done so much more.

LOL!!
"Uh...animal, honey. A is for animal."
LOL.
In the early days of SNL,the muppets had a skit. Did they live in a garbage dump, or in a Nuclear waste dump?
Or am I completely wrong?
Love your new tagline!!!
BTW, on the show that will remain nameless, is Major Garrett...really good interview...
I hope TONY gets on Major Garrett...maybe tomorrow on Fox Tony????
For some reason that thought makes me have vertigo. LOL! I think that maybe the answer to that is a little ex-lax, lately Harry Reid in particular seems phlegmatic. LOL again!
