A New Can in Town — the 12 Ounce Can of Scotch

by Lisa Frederiksen

Be on the lookout for a New Can In Town — the 12 ounce can of scotch. Learning of its arrival prompted me to want to share information that can help a person stay in control of their drinking and avoid the regrettable behaviors that can happen when they unintentionally have too much. This became the basis of the 1st 10 minute Breaking The Cycles show now appearing on Peninsula Television (PenTV), a nonprofit, member-supported community television station.

I want to thank Warren Slocum, CEO of Peninsula Television (PenTV), for taking a chance on me and my 10 minute show, Breaking The Cycles. And, I want to thank Arturo Samayoa, owner of Nimbus Design, for the introduction to Warren and partially funding the show, as well as Rocky Robinson, PenTV’s Engineer and Editor, for a great job pulling it all together.

And, as you will hear at the end of the program, my objective with these 10 minutes shows is to encourage important “conversations” through viewer and reader comments on this Blog. So please feel free to add your thoughts and/or pass it along…
