Etc., ad infinitum...

HAPPY GROUNDHOG DAY!
Speaking of which, I can sorta relate to what Bill Murray went through in that film.  Every day at 4:30 PM, I hop in my car after work and turn the radio on to the all-sports station and they have the same debate raging every day—should Trent Green or Damon Huard be the Chiefs starting QB?  Too bad they don’t play "I Got You Babe" in the background…

HO! HO! HO!
The Home Depot hardware emporium I drive by every day isn’t doing very well on the upkeep of the signage on their building.  Either that, or they’re now called the "Ho Depot" at night!  Umm, the flourescent lights are found in Aisle 69...

RAMMING SPEED!!!
You’ve no doubt seen these panel trucks that drive around with rotating advertisements on them?  I got stuck behind one today at a light on the way to work, when the ugly mug of one Geraldo Rivera (aka, Jerry Rivers) appeared on the back of it, promoting his psuedo-news show "Geraldo At Large".  I gave more than a fleeting thought to just flooring my car straight into his gnarly mustache, but I didn’t want to scuff my nice vehicle…

MEET THE NEW WIZARDS' STADIUM...SAME AS THE OLD WIZARDS' STADIUM
Well, after months of speculation, the Kansas City Wizards soccer team is going to play at Arrowhead Stadium in 2007 after all.  The ‘Head was supposedly not going to be available to our mighty Wizzes because of the upcoming renovations this year, but somehow it suddenly became re-available long about the same time Major League Soccer bagged the $250 million man, David Beckham—a potential windfall to the team when he comes to town.  Coincidence?  Nah, couldn’t be…

CLASSIC MISHEARD LYRIC #4
"Radar Love"—GOLDEN EARRING (1974) "I’m spinnin’ into a new sunrise," always sounded like "I’m spinnin’ into a nude sunrise," to my filthy little 10-year-old mind!

DEAD MAN TALKING
Ever watch Don Imus’s radio show on TV in the mornings on MSNBC?  This curmudgeon is such a crashing bore, I can’t believe someone hasn’t done an autopsy on him yet!  Now HERE’S that cure for insomnia I needed so badly the other night—too bad Imus doesn’t come on here until 6AM.  I caught part of the show this morning and he and his cronies were yapping about the former NFL players who are now suffering the after-effects of their injuries and how many are impoverished because the NFL pension money sucks for most of the pre-1980s players—a hot button topic during Super Bowl week, btw.  Anyway, the late Johnny Unitas’ name popped up and they talked about how toward the end of his life he was in a lot of pain, etc., and Imus chimes in with, "Well, whatever happened with him—is he dead now?"  Well, duh!  Unitas was only like the Mickey Mantle of pro football and he died like over four years ago!  Even a casual sports fan knows this, let alone a supposedly "well-informed" talking head like Imus.  What a maroon!  Please, Don, stick to kissing ass with Tim Russert, and stay away from sports from now on, okay Bud?  And can you believe that Imus—aka, "Mr. Personality"—was once a VH-1 VJ?!?  It's true—I'm NOT making that up…

By the way, watching a radio show—the most brilliant concept since "AM stereo"…
