The beginnings.....
For those that haven't been on board the "e-mail list" that was sent out by Pat Barr in organizing a 25th Anniversary reunion here is what you have missed (edited for the blog):

Are you anywhere near the San Gabriel Valley? Those of you with fuel in your vehicles and a little time on your hands are cordially invited to join me Saturday afternoon in Old Town Monrovia for the unofficial KSUL Pre-Union on October, er, Rocktober 29. We can brainstorm a bit and get some ideas for the 25th anniversary of the Final Night of broadcast which is coming up next year if my 4th grade math skills are holding up. Meet at Old Town Pizza across from Library Park here in Monrovia (Myrtle St. near Lime St.) around 2PM. RSVP if you care to dare. (yellowsubmarine64@verizon.net)
Amber Rose likes the Long Beach area better but that may be a bit far for some of you. I realize that we tried to avoid feedback while on the radio, but it could be a good thing in this case.
******The Electrical Radio Program's Halloween show is coming along nicely and features some classic scarey moments from L.A. radio and TV-- KMPC, KIIS, KTLA, etc. I also hope to have the new single from you-know-who! No, not Lord Valdemort, but rather...

Hey everyone...
Is anyone else nervous about not recognizing or even remembering each other? We haven't seen each other in a lifetime, unless you all have gotten together without me. I know, I'm acting like a silly woman, but humor me.
Pat, when you have this thing all together, maybe you could send out a list of everyone's actual names. As I look at the email addresses I cqn only identify a few recognizable names.
Who is married? Kids? Careers? Can we catch up?
I have a 19 year old son in his soph year at UCI. I'm married for the 2nd time, happily this time, live in West Garden Grove, and still only about 15 min. from CSULB. I am in my 18th year of teaching Kindergarten for Garden Grove Unified School District.
When I hear the expression, "Those were the good old days" I immediately think of my KSUL experience, and you, my friends and cohorts. It still means the world to me. If I had two days that I could turn back the clock, I'd spend a day with all of you in the KSUL building, saying, "LEARN HOW TO USE THE EQUIPMENT!" I always think of those times when there are technical difficulties! The second day for which I'd turn back the clock would be to leave my first husband waiting at the altar instead of marrying him.
Is anyone in touch with John Palminteri? Bill McMullen? Marcy Morrison? Bill Cavanaugh? Cameron Cosgrove? Craig Breit? Ray Siri? Steve Buck? I believe I have Steve Buck's email: sbuck@att.com
I don't know, however, if it is current. Have you emailed Paul Sakrison? paul@sakrison.com, or phsakrison@kfwb.cbs.com
Hey, remember Nash Contreras???!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks for "listening." I'd love to hear from some of you and maybe I'll see you whenever and wherever the meeting is.

John Hays here (now you know the name that goes with this e-dress). Even though I've been married (and divorced) twice, that's still my name ;)My girlfriend of over 3 years is getting her PhD in History at UCI. What's your son's major, if any? (I took General Ed. at LBCC, then picked Film/TV/Radio when I continued at CSULB).I occasionally keep in touch with Rick DuVall and Steve Binder, both of whom were KSUL D.J.s, and Rick Leddy, who was a Broadcast Journalism major there, and did some news pieces for our station.I lived with both Ricks (and a guy named Richard, believe it or not, who was replaced by a guy named Mark) for 4 years in Huntington Beach after graduating from CSULB. Now I'm in the Hollywood area, and work in the movie/TV industry, which I've been doing for around 20 years.
Rick DuVall lives in Anaheim, and teaches in one of the O.C. school districts (I'm not sure which one).

Getting together is a great idea!...but I can’t make it. Through some incredibly poor scheduling I’m on the road doing consulting projects for stations almost non-stop through the end of the year.
As long as everyone’s adding a bit of family history—I’ve been married 26 years (met my wife at CSULB, so I got my degree and the second degree from the same place), three kids, 24, 22 and 21; and just celebrated my 30th year in Radio, dating back to my first KSUL shift in Sept 1975 in the “old” studios. First song: Dan Fogelberg’s “Part of the Plan”. Some things you never forget—now if I could remember my kids’ names…
Thanks for keeping the KSUL flame lit!

I keep my hand in a bit of audio production now and then, and once in a while you can see me playing guitar here and there. But my real gig is being a full time software weenie twiddling bits and bytes. Been doing that for over 25 years. Also have a second degree in Computer Science.
I was living in the Santa Barbara area until about 3 years ago when I relocated to Moorpark, in Ventura County. Yep, I had enough of the good life (and the snobs), wanted to try something different.
I have been married to Brenda for 25+ years.
I have 2 children:
Nathan, who is 21 and 6 foot 4 inches. Has long hair. When he grows a beard he looks like Jesus Christ, only taller.
Emily, who is 18 and away at college back in Santa Barbara

Monrovia works ok, Long Beach would be better.
See you all the 29th

Well, since this is turning into a de-facto "bio update" mailing, here's mine:After CSULB and one semester at KSUL, I struck out for the big world of software development. That took me to Northrup Electronics, where HR offered me $50 a month more to work in the typing pool rather than as a programmer! (Sheesh, labor was once expensive!)
After five years at Northrup and eleven at ARCO, with a few shorter gigs in between, I took up software consulting (it was that or move to Bangalor) and travelled the countryside. Seven years of that got me a million American Airline miles and a quick trip to divorce court.
Now I'm settling into a real office job in Rancho Bernardo (San Diego), but continue to live near my two daughters in Aliso Viejo (Orange County).
I'll join the group in either Monrovia or Long Beach...but can someone tell me why the San Gabriel Valley has Claremont and Montclair as adjacent communities? Was there a shortage of city names at some point in the past?

SO...what's up with you?
