This Dog Knows His Stuff!


 

Steve, 
I was jarred out of bed by a tremendous crack of thunder this morning and couldn't believe my eyes when I turned on the outside lights and saw snow coming down.  I was going to email you this morning on your show and tell you of the funniest thing.... I have a greyhound with me that's fresh off the track and he's still cautiously making his way around the house learning about mirrors, glass doors that seem like "hard air", sounds of hair dryers, etc., but I laughed out loud when I turned on your show this morning and he went running up to the TV when you came on.  He's never seen people in a box and he was so enthralled.  The funny thing is he was disinterested when a commercial came on, then when your face and voice came back on the screen - he ran up to the TV again.  He knows a dog whisperer when he sees/hears one!
 
Thanks again for your efforts to help the greyhound cause.
 
Judy

You flipped the wrong switch!


 
From: john f bartley


 12-8-09       1:10 p.m.       Dear Uncle Steve:
You must have "flipped the wrong switch" down there......good grief!  This is like the "old days"!!  Somewhere over 14" of snow, top wind gust = 55 mph......(it's actually hard to exactly/officially measure snow depth, with such strong winds....but I'm relatively sure we will let the Nat. Weather Service in Alb. know the above....)  So please, "push the other button", for warmth, sun, Hawaii, etc.!!
What is the chill factor if it is 18 degrees with 55 mph wind?  I'll have to figure that one out......
Once again Steve, GREAT JOB on the lighting of the Old Town tree Friday night!   We almost made it down there!  We had an official invitation from the people in charge, but we couldn't get away from here!  Maybe next year!
We'll keep you posted with the weather, since it is an "indoor type day"....
Stay warm, warm regards,   John Bartley

Merry Christmas

Steve I wanted to thank you personally for the wonderful job that you did last Friday in Old Town. I am not quite sure who or what attracts the most attention,  The lighting of the tree or the silver tongued master of the microphone. We are fortunate here in Albuquerque to have someone like you to exemplify the community  spirit and for just one fleeting moment lead us to a better place. Your professionalism, coupled with a charm that makes old men smile and young girls swoon is why your work is so greatly appreciated. You reach out and embrace the audience while bringing them a unique moment, a memory for the ages.

 

The Old Town Merchants Association is fortunate to have KOB and mostly Steve Stucker as a friend. I tell all who will listen that a few times a year I have a chance to work with and learn from a good man, a professional, a pillar of the community, someone special. When I tell them who they just nod and smile and give me that look

that says of course.

 

If I can ever be of assistance to you please do not hesitate. I will be there to help

 

Yours truly,

 

Gary Dewey 

Thanks Gary....You are much too kind.  I appreciate all the support, and truly feel blessed by God to be accepted into my adopted community of New Mexico.  I enjoy helping out with these special events, and will do my best to be here when you need me.    ss

Snow in Red River

Hey Steve,

Thanks for keeping us updated on the weather!  I watch daily.  Just wanted to let you know that we’ve gotten about 6 inches today of wonderful dry snow, and it’s getting heavier…I think we’re expecting a great night for our ski area (Red River Ski Area). Will let you know in the morning how much we get!

Morning dog walk report

Good morning Steve,

 

This is good for a laugh, I think.

We walk our dogs every weekday at 5 a.m. It was windy and sprinkling when we arrived at the park. After the thunder & lightning began, I said it was time to go! The rain increased as we got near to the truck, but my pal thought her dog needed the exercise, so turned down my offer for a ride home. By the time I had Amanda loaded and was getting myself in, it was snowing hard. By the time we stopped to pick up my pal, it was hailing as well, and the street was snow-covered. The trip home was careful and uneventful. The clock said 5:17.  :-)

Leave it to New Mexico.... my poor dogs woke me up at 5:00, eager to go outside, but when I opened the door and the wind was blowing, the snow was pelting us and then the lightning and thunder started booming... well.... that was it for the dogs!!  They were both back in their beds quicker than you can say Merry Christmas!  I can honestly say that's the first snow storm I've seen complimented by thunder!!
Have a great day!

Let me begin by saying that your beautiful daughter and my son share birthdays!! Happy Birthday to her.
On another note...Thank you so much for the joy that you bring to early mornings, I have been watching you for SO many years, great memories of my childhood often include watching you in the mornings before school with my grandparents. My grandma was one of your biggest fans if she was unable to watch a newscast then she would record it. Thank you so much for being a early morning "companion" for many many years.

Save Luke and Chewey!

 
Subject: Save Luke and Chewey!

PLEASE SAVE US!

 

 

Six and a half year-old brothers Luke and Chewey are in desperate need of a new home. Their former owner had to give them up when he lost his job and his house. They have been at Animal Humane for several weeks now and their time is running out fast.

 

Chewey and Luke came from a truly loving home and have been together since birth (they are litter-mates). They deserve to find a new home together! They are incredibly sweet and affectionate, well-adjusted, laid-back, house-trained couch potatoes who love kids, belly rubs, and watching TV.  Their time is running out very fast.  PLEASE HELP!

 

They are at Animal Humane of New Mexico: 615 Virginia Street SE in Albuquerque, (505) 255-5523.

Their ID numbers: 11041 (Chewey) and 11040 (Luke)

 

Flyer from Animal Humane is attached. Please forward this email/flyer to as many people as you can possibly think of.  These guys really need all the help they can get. I know these dogs.  My dogs used to play with them at the dog-park.  They deserve better.

Roads in Edgewood

Steve-
 
I was headed to Corrales from Edgewood at 9:30 this morning. I got on westbound I-40 at the Edgewood exit. Between that exit and Sedillo Hill (the next exit) there was one 3 car accident and a semi that slid off the road down the hill. We got off at Sedillo and decided to go home since the interstate didn't appear to have been salted/sanded at all. That's when we watched another semi jackknife on eastbound I-40 just after the Sedillo Hill exit. We drove home on the skating rink quality Old 66 and gave up on going anywhere today. We have 3 inches here and the snow keeps falling!
