I don't know if it made the air, but someone called Talkback over the weekend to complain I don't smile enough.
Well, maybe.
At times like this, I'm reminded of something the late, great CBS journalist Eric Sevareid once said. Sevareid remarked he could never smile for a "gadget," meaning a television camera.
It's not an oral thing. I have a great dentist who keeps my teeth in top shape.
I do have a nice sense of humor. I enjoy a good laugh. People who know me understand that I take my job seriously, but I don't take myself seriously.
I'm simply not a smiler.
If I appeared on the air as Guy Smiley one morning, it would be fake-- an act, and the audience would see right through it. There are too many of those types already on the air.
I am what I am, and what I am is not a smiler.
Being honest, and true to who I am brings a smile to my face.
