The following is an e-mail from Jerry DelColliano to Gerry Wilkinson.

It was GREAT to hear from you. How could I ever catch up for all the years since The Bob and Jerry Show. Suffice it to say, Bob and I are still doing the show -- wherever we can find two people gathered in our name. Bob and I are working together (what would you expect) on a project for my company, Inside Radio which is a trade publication which is faxed daily to radio stations around the US and Canada. We also do a management conference in Scottsdale every spring for radio executives (that's what Bob runs).

After I left Temple I worked at WIBG on the air and did stints at WIFI (as PD), WIP on the air and back to WIBG as the Program Director. I started Inside Radio in 1975 -- hard to believe, but true. The only way I could get a job was to hire myself!

I had two children from previous marriages -- a son, Jerry (23) went to college and lives out west. He has his own Internet business -- a high end audio web site. My daughter, Daria is 13 and lives with her mother in Voorhees. All of us in the Del Colliano family live for Flyers games. We have four season tickets. Please invite other Flyers fans from the RTI days to stop by and say Hi (Section 103, Row 5, Seats 11,12, 13, 14). We're almost always there except when I am traveling and then my daughter is usually there. My company just opened an office in Beverly Hills. We also have an office in Cherry Hill. I won't work at a place that doesn't have a "hill" in it! I also live part time inScottsdale, AZ where I play golf -- poorly. I was recently asked my handicap and I replied, "no talent". Anyway...

I'm getting married again in September in Philadelphia. I have been doing some teaching at USC -- lecturing on broadcasting and the Internet. Lookout.

I live in Medford with my fiance and my mother who was widowed a few years back. She is 88 (same as Eric Lindros -- I mean his number).

Please pass this info on to anyone interested. I am very interested in hearing about others from the RTI days. And I'll make this commitment right now -- Bob and I will bring the "Bob and Jerry Show" out of retirement (and it'll look like it, too) for the right occasion. The opening of the Academy Music? The Avenue of the Arts? The Zoo? A bowling banquet? Or a reunion of the old crowd. Just don't tell Bob I booked the gig. His agent is a pain in the butt.

Best,

Jerry

Another e-mail from Jerry DelColliano. We had requested his son's web site address for linking.... My son's name is Jerry (and as Bob Donze will tell you he is a chip off the old block). He is publishing a very popular high-end audio publication on the internet called audiorevolution.com.

Thanks for asking. I'm sure he will appreciate the link.

The following is an e-mail from Jerry DelColliano, Jr....I am Jerry Del Colliano Jr. My father asked me to send you a brief bio and the link to my web publications.

What kind of stories do you want? I assume the Marv Albert - out on the town stuff is off limits but please suggest some possible topics.

Does Jerry, Jr. know something we don't? (Joke)

The following is an e-mail from Jerry DelColliano Hope your holidays went well.

My son, Jerry, has been here to visit and see a Flyers game. Right this minute, he is having lunch with his "Uncle" Bob Donze. It seems he needs some more jokes to bring back to California. (God, I hope not!).

I am picking up my 84 year old aunt tomorrow to visit my 88-year old mother who lives with us. I do this because it is one of the few times that I actually feel younger! Seriously, the two golden girls have a good time working their crosswords puzzles and watching movies on the satellite. Imagine that!.

My fiance, Cheryl, and I are planning a one week vaction to Vermont in a few weeks. First time for a place called Twin Farms. I understand Bill Gates was just there so I am assuming I'll be able to get my email.

Best to all.
Jerry
