KIRO Newsradio Commentaries

I have used my computer for years, and Microsoft and Outlook have never failed me, at least not to any horribly scary extent. And I rely on the computer for my broadcast work, for my website, for scripts I write for galas that I am emceeing, for serving my clients. It’s a significant communication tool, right?
