I've been slacking on the posts this week since I’m taking a few days off before summer concert season heats up. But I couldn’t go without posting a few clips from my interview with comedian Daniel Whitney, a.k.a. Larry the Cable Guy, a.k.a. the main attraction Friday night (May 15) at the Tacoma Dome. Click on the links below to hear the “Get R’ Done” guy talk about …

Read more in Friday's GO section. Now back to loafing and watching "The Office."
