I'm also Midland. Like Nan, I was raised in a military family. I started talking in Kansas, went to elementary school (1st thru 8th grade) in central Ohio, and went to high school and college in Louisiana. I have worked on the air for radio stations and I was often asked to either double as the narrator in church choir programs or just narrate.
When I left Louisiana to move to Texas (dadgummit, there's another influence, y'all), I left that radio station, and when I went back over a year later, the station had changed management and format, but they were still using some of my station IDs. I thought about calling them and asking for some money, but I never did. I doubt they had any. It was a 1000-watt AM station in Shreveport, so they were broke all the time.
