NAME: Ken "New - Old Guy" Richards
Dave and Shari started calling me this because I'm the newest staff mate on KAFE. However, I was also on KAFE a few years ago. Okay. 10+ years ago.

NEIGHBORHOOD: Bellingham
 I won a bet. Or something. How did I get so lucky?
HOMETOWN: Anacortes! Go Seahawks.
 
SIGNIFICANT OTHERS: The most significant! Ro. Rochelle and I found each other several years ago. Married for 3+ years. (2nd for me. First for her.)  My kids. Rachel. Matt. Kadey.
 
INSIGNIFICANT OTHERS: Slow drivers in the left lane on I-5. Why?? Why can't they do as the sign says? "Stay Right, Except To Pass".
 
HOW MANY CARDS I RECEIVE ON FATHERS DAY: I should be getting 3.
 
HOW LONG I'VE BEEN IN RADIO: Started out a longgggg time ago in little Anacortes. Got my first job on my 15th birthday. What a present!! I've been on the radio since we used to use actual 45's and albums to play the music. Sheesh.
 
FAVORITE MOVIES: Planes, Trains and Automobiles. Makes me laugh so hard. And tear up when you realize John Candy's character's wife has been gone for a while. Now it makes me tear up when I realize John Candy's been gone for a while. I love the Rocky series. Most of them. And The Princess Bride is about as good as it gets.
 
MY AMERICAN IDOL: Lyle Lovett. Seen him in concert seveal times. I'd journey (and have) across the state to see him.
 
BEST PIZZA: I loves me the Roundtable! Mmmmm. Preferrably some beef, mushrooms and tomatoes.
 
I WISH I HAD MOM'S RECIPE FOR: Beef Stroganoff. It was a special night, coming home from being a happy-go-lucky kid..to smell the Stroganoff in that small little house.
 
TIME SPENT ON THE INTERNET EACH DAY: Not much at all. Too busy at work behind the scenes. And dangit..we moved into an area where I can't get wired! Cable doesn't come close enough. No other broadband. And the trees around the house are too tall to get satellite internet! I believe the expression for this situation is:  :(
 
WHAT I DID BEFORE THE INTERNET: I didn't see amazing things you can do with Coke and Mentos.
 
MAGAZINES I SUBSCRIBE TO: Oh...all of them.
 
ONE THING NOBODY WOULD EVER GUESS ABOUT ME: I'm a member of Mensa. Seriously. After talking with you for several minutes, it'll become apparent that I'm not.
 
STRANGEST THING I HAVE EVER EATEN: 
 
FIVE THINGS THAT ANNOY ME TO NO END: 
1) Left laners who drive slow.
2) Burning a steak on the bar-b-que
3) People who think they're funny, but aren't.
4)
5)
