The BIO:                     [Skip Directly to The Blog]

Greg Curtis is the newest member of the Bobby Rich Morning-MIX, but this is actually his 2nd “tour of duty” at 94.9MIXfm. The first time “I was sandwiched between Adrienne Walker and Delilah” as the host of the early evening show from 6-9pm. “It’s great to return to such a successful team,” he says. “Bobby, Mrs. G, Big Al, Marty and Adrienne are all like family to me.” 

Speaking of family, Greg and his wife Kim are happy to be back in the Old Pueblo after living in Boston for a few years. “We both have family and a lot of old friends who live in Tucson, and with the birth of our first child (09/07), we knew it was time to come home.”

Greg is a hometown kid. A graduate of both Sabino HS, and the University of Arizona, “No matter where we go, it seems like I run into somebody I grew up with or worked for. In the past week alone, I ran into 4 people I hadn’t seen in years! In one case, we were catching up and found out we knew other people in other circles. Small town!”   

Greg likes:
Red Sox baseball, Wildcat basketball, Coffee, golf with Dad, backyard BBQ’s, draft beer, and mobster movies.


Greg dislikes:
Rudeness, people who lack compassion for others, the  New York Yankees, and drivers that wait for an “invitation” before proceeding left on a green arrow!

We should also note that Greg has a musical background (drums & percussion), and has written and performed many of the parody songs heard during the Bobby Rich Morning-MIX. So if you hear something you don’t like, don’t blame Bobby or Mrs. Grant. 
Chances are it’s all Greg’s fault…

He was easily the size of an audio CD--and ROUND!!!  (Anybody know why a frog like this would be SO fat?!)

Hey, Greg! This is a Colorado River Toad and they are nasty! Hope your dog didn't lick or do anything with this bad boy...they are very toxic and can kill dogs. I once had to put a hose down my dogs throat to flush out the poison. Yuck! Luckily he was OK. These Toad's usually come out with the 1st heavy rain because they hibernate in the ground. Stay away! They are protected too so don't kill one. I know someone who got so frustrated with them showing up in his back yard he finally loaded several of them into a box and relocated them...that's all I will say! Hope the stay away from your backyard from now on but I would recommend you check your yard so the dogs don't get one until the monsoons end and they crawl back into the ground. Good luck!

Ditto on the dog watch for toads. We have no less than 5 in our entry way every night. We have dogs, but they are afraid of them. They do a good job on the bugs, though, so we let them stay.

GOOD info! Thanks for the poisonous tip. I definitely won't let the dog have a taste, but what if I want one, would that be okay? 8^)

Greg, the toxins are produced in the skin, so if you skin it, it should be okay! (Aside from all that pesky "protected" nonsense! <grin>) If it's like the frog legs I had in Louisville, you'll be able to say, "Mmmm, tastes like chicken!" 8^o

I have spotted two of these toads in my driveway after rains. Fortunately we don't have any dogs in the neighborhood. It's my understanding they are reall not harmful to people. We got .25 inches of rain last night here on Dove Mountain, .70 two nights ago.
Keep it coming it's good for our golf course.
PS. Have you played at Heritage Highlands?
Love your show!
