Talk about stinky cheese!
Girard also toured Purdue University in West Lafayette, Ind., conducting experiments while on campus. Vanessa Scott and Trenton Mein make cheese using vinegar. Yuck!
Restless Heart Concert
The first lady of KKOW, Linda Willis, opened the show with her grand-daughter. It was a pleasure to have Linda be a part of our special celebration. We couldn't have done it without her. The opening also featured KKOW owner, Gene Bicknell singing a gospel medley and a proclamation by Bill Rushton, mayor of Pittsburg, proclaiming it "KKOW Day" in Pittsburg (October 26, 2007).
