I was born in San Antonio, TX right before Richard Nixon resigned.  I was raised in the Free State of McMullen County in the metropolis of Tilden, Texas.  I laugh when people tell me they're from a small town.  My hometown has 425 people in it and I graduated in a class of 13 students.  It doesn't get much smaller than that, and we didn't have a Dairy Queen.

I went to college at Texas A&M-Kingsville (A&I) and got a B.S. in Agribusiness (Class of 2000).  That is not a very common degree with radio folks, but what the heck.  I got my start at KTAI, the college radio station at TAMUK.  Here's their website: KTAI 91.1.

I've been getting paid to talk on the radio and play music since July, 1996.  I've been with K-99 since January, 2000.

I am Christina's husband and Leighann's daddy.

Things Big Frank Would Never Say
Here's the ever growing list:
1.  Yes, I'd like another salad.
2.  You know, BBQ is not my style.
3.  I've got to get home early today to watch Oprah.
4.  Have you heard the new Clay Aiken CD?
5.  I think Hillary would make a great President.
6.  Go ahead and take a nap honey.  I'll stay up and play with the baby.
7.  Let's go adopt some kittens.
8.  I never liked those window treatments anyway.
9. No, no, I don't want another pork chop.
10.  Is this low calorie?
11. I'd like a glass of white wine, please.
12. Can I get this in my size, and does it come in pink?
13. I need to get a pedicure and a manicure an then I need to get a waxing and join the tanning salon.
14. Which dance step is manlier, the mambo or the cha-cha?
15. I would never go hunting.  Killing animals for sport is not my idea of fun.
16. NASCAR is not a sport.
17. Sure honey, I'll watch Lifetime with you instead of the game.
18. Do these shoes go with this outfit.
19. No thanks.  I don't drink beer, but I will take another Pina Colada.
20.  Just because I'm from Texas doesn't mean I would be caught dead throwing a few back while watching a Spurs game or listening to that guy they call George Strait.  Besides, I really want to be a yankee.

A RARE SATURDAY POSTING
Saturday 07-19-2008 3:09pm CT

Last night, my wife wanted to go see the new Batman movie, The Dark Knight.  I was skeptical, because things that are hyped up like this movie generally dissapoint.  Not the case with this movie.  It is REALLY good, and I highly recommend it.


Wade Bowen has a new album coming out September 30 called If We Ever Make It Home.  He's putting a track a week on his website each week until the album is release.  Visit www.wadebowen.com to hear the new music.

The Purpose Of The Thing On My Shirt...
Friday 07-18-2008 3:07pm CT

You may remember, last week I asked what the purpose of the flap of velcro on my shirts were.  Here are some of the responses I got:

"
It's for you wife to put the leash on and keep you in line and keep a eye on you at all times. You know men."  - Kris

"heya FRANK i could be wrong, but i think that piece of material is actually a fashion statement and used to hold your sun glasses..does it close(velco back to the shirt-or another piece of velcro)? Was just a thought, but i believe my dad had a shirt like that,and hell, that's what he used it for..hahaha......DOES THE CORRECT ANSWER GET SHLITTERBAHN TICKETS... was just a thought..haha..take care.  and keep up the great work, luv listening to ya!!" -     Terrie


"you can use that tab to hold anything you want like  some kind of tool to use while fishing or if you are in  the water fishing and you need to bait your hook put the rod in there so you don't loose your rod." - Mike

OK, I've been talking about this, so I had to come back and figure out what this is.  What is the purpose of this piece of material with velcro on it above the left pocket on my shirt?  PLEASE email me if you know:  frankedwards@clearchannel.com is my email address.
