Dear Loyal Purtan’s People fans, I can’t thank you enough for the thousands of birthday wishes that I received last Friday. I can’t thank you enough because I didn’t get thousands, but the 8 or 10 messages I did get were really great. And I owe it all to my best friend in the whole wide world - Dick Purtan, who…graciously wished me a happy birthday right here on his website. I just hope none of you sent me gifts to the radio station, because they probably wouldn’t forward them to me; they’d probably give the gifts to the promotions department to use as on-air giveaways. But, it’s the thought that counts.
Anyway, as I always said on the air, it’s not about me. Speaking of me, if you’re wondering what I’m up to these days…Well, I’m busy building up my new career which includes speaking engagements, voice overs, emceeing and freelance writing. Need me? Please drop me a note on my “Official Big Al Muskavito Facebook Fan Page”, which as of this writing only trails Dick’s Facebook page by some 4,600 fans… which is just fine because as you know I always tried to keep a humble and low profile when I was on the air.
In conclusion, it’s hard to believe that another year of my life has aimlessly drifted by. Even harder to believe is the fact that we’ve almost been off the air for a year! And speaking of important dates in history, the Salvation Army Radiothon is fast approaching - Friday, February 25th. Let’s keep the momentum going! You can donate right now by clicking on the links here on Dick’s web page or his Facebook page. Be well everybody… and thank you again for remembering my birthday. (February 11th, for those of you who would like to mark it down for next year) All the best! Fondly…Big Al
