Well folks it's that time of year again!... With the help of Classic Hits 92.3, we'll once again be covering the Houston Texans' home games bringing you sights, sounds, and other stuff indirectly related to football. The pre-season game between the Texans and the Bucaneers was slightly underwhelming since the Texans didn't play most of their starters and the Texans got soundly beat. NO PROBLEM! We interviewed two rookie cheerleaders who happen to be absolutely adorable identical twins (click the image below!). As always a huge thank you to KETX Executive Ken Luck who makes it all possible. Cool pics from the game and video soon coming to www.923theagle.com
Click this image to see the twins interview!
Just like last year....We decided to start out this year with an interview with Willie Williams. Of all the Texans' staff, Willie Williams is one of the most charismatic (at least from the ones we've met). Williams is a teacher, owns his own business, and for the fun of it, loves to work security at Houston Texans games (but takes his job very seriously).

SFA Graduate Returns to Lufkin and Opens Practice
LUFKIN, August 30, 2010 - A new Family Practice physician, who began her career close to home at Stephen F. Austin State University, has joined the medical staff at Memorial Health System of East Texas. Dr. Amy Schochler is one of Lufkin’s newest physicians—bringing ten years of urgent care and family practice medical experience to the area.
A member of the American Board of Family Practice and American Academy of Physicians, Dr. Schochler earned her Doctor of Osteopathic Medical Degree from the University of North Texas Health Sciences Center. She trained at the University of Wyoming Family Practice Residency Program at Cheyenne before working at Clearwater Valley Hospital and Clinics as a Family Practice Physician in Idaho.
“We are delighted that Dr. Schochler has chosen to return to East Texas,” said Bryant Krenek, President & CEO of Memorial Health System of East Texas. “Many existing physician practices are full and cannot accept new patients, leaving many patients without a general medicine doctor. Dr. Schochler will help care for those patients as she opens her practice September 1.”
Dr. Schochler’s office is currently accepting new adult and pediatric patients. Most insurance, Medicare and Medicaid are accepted. To schedule an appointment call 936-631-6771. Dr. Schochler’s office is located in Memorial’s Medical Arts Pavilion at 1105 West Frank Street, Suite 240, Lufkin.
Dr. Schochler and her husband Scott, who is a track coach and teacher at Diboll Independent School District, reside in Diboll along with their children Vivian and Leahla.

The AK-74 assault rifle was designed by the Ruskies in 1974 as an answer to the US made M-16. The M-16 is a rifle that fires very accurately even at long ranges. The AK-47 while it puts out some serious firepower, was not very accurate at long distances like the M-16. Thus the Ruskies upgraded in 1974, hence, the AK-74. The AK-74 fires a 5.45 x 39 mm round. The result is more accurate and more reliable rifle than the AK-47. This version of the venerable Kalashnikov design first saw service with Soviet forces in Afghanistan. Where the new 5.45×39 round was dubbed devils round or poison bullet by the Mujahideen. From what I've read the 5.45×39 round has a hollow cavity in the nose and a steel core behind it destabilizing the bullet; thus, when it hits the flesh, it is quick to yaw inside the tissue causing massive wounds. The one I purchased is brand new and was actually made in the USA by Century Firearms. The rifle has no kick, was fun to fire, and seems impossible to jam.

It's Getting Close to That Time of Year Again... !FOOTBALL!
On Saturday July 31, 2010 I had the privelege of going to watch the Houston Texans in a private practice held in their giant bubble. I was assisted by Livingston Lion Quarterback (and Linebacker) Blake Burman and Chris Moehlmann who is a fireman for the South Polk County Volunteer Fire Department. The whole team was there including Andre Johnson who is currently renegotiating his contract. After practice we were fortunate enough to get a few interviews. A huge thank you toClassic Hits 92.3executive, Ken Luck for making the whole thing possible. Ken is also the play by play radio voice for the Livingston Lions vasity football team. -- Editor

We took two medium sized watermelons and shot both at a distance of 12 yards. We shot one with a Mossberg 12 gauge shotgun, and the other one we shot with a M-1 Carbine 30 caliber rifle. Click the image below to see the results.
I purchased a 1968 M-1 Carbine 30 Caliber assault rifle. The M-1 Carbine was designed in 1941 by Winchester Firearms to be a light weight rifle. It's accuracy is dependable up to about 100 meters max. It's very easy to operate and has almost no recoil. There were several firearms companies that manufactured the M-1. Mine was manufactured by Universal Firearms and has had less than 1,000 rounds fired through it. It's in immaculate condition. While the M-1 was popular during WWII, it was particularly favored by the US Marines who were fighting in the Pacific theater of operations. The Marines liked the light weight and smallish dimensions of the rifle. It suited many Marines for the jungle and island fighting. The quality of the M-1 and it's smooth operation make it a pleasure to fire. I give this rifle two thumbs up. -- Editor
