- Because of some 58-year(according to his birth certifacate,driver's license
- and Infinity records he has 3 different birthdates) old guy by
- the name of Charles Laquidara who does morning drive-time on Inifinity's
- powerhouse,WBCN, in Boston and has a very loyal 18-34 male following in
- these parts...The guy really sucks but I guess Infinity is trying to reward
- him for some 20 years this guys has been on 'BCN by keeping him around on the air.
- 'BCN will celebrate 25 years on the air this year.

- Origianlly,the plan what was to have Howard on tape-delay from 10 to 2
- on newly acquired WZLX-FM starting this month but the monks and nuns
- who run FCC killed that idea fast. The rumors are that Howard is being
- shopped around for syndication on non-Infinity stattion in the Greater
- Boston area but so far there are no takers because of the high price tag...
