Morning Commute No.1

I had thought about blogging this almost 6 months ago but decided against the idea. No wait, I didnt decide against it, I just looked up and had some pretty interesting things going on that led me to landing at my desk and literally forgetting about the idea.
So, the idea is I will periodically report about crazy things I hear on the radio on the way in to work.
For example, about 4 weeks ago on a local San Diego radio station, the DJs asked listeners to call in and report about dates that they have been on and they then ask the DJs to call the person with whom they went on the date, because they haven't heard back from the person since the date. To rephrase that; the callers (who have generally been out of contact with a person they dated) ask the DJs to call people who MUST really not be interested in the caller.
SO, about three weeks ago a classic call happened that involved a woman who described a beautiful date with a guy. They met at a dog park and both had Schnauzers. Both were professionals and they hit it off. In one day, they enjoyed the park together, had a nice early dinner with a sunset, and wound out back at the woman's home "doin the nasty". However, since that date the guy never called the woman back and she wondered what was going on (lets add one point for classic dumb woman shit right here). She asked the DJs to call the guy (remember this is happening early in the morning (8:00am)). The DJs made the phone call, and a WOMAN answered the phone. To the DJs horror, surprise and amazement, it turned out the guy was married!! ROFL.. classic. PLUS, if you could have heard the guy trying to explain himself to his wife (who literally started crying) you would have given him mad credit!
The idiot chick who initiated the call (note, dude gave her his cell phone number, so lets chalk up a point for dumb-ass dudes right here) called the guy all kinds of typical names...
The guy terminated the call.
Fun radio moment.

So without further doo doo, let me let you in on what I heard THIS morning.



1. Britney Spears (and its hard to write that name on this blog, but I have to) apparently smokes like a chimney in front of her little rich, yet hillbilly kids. Not only that, but it is reported that when she can not find her cigarettes, she asks her oldest son to "help mommy find her lollipops". Ahh parenting. Looks like Brit has it down already. Its the little lies that lead to little crazed monsters. Keep it up Brit.


2. OJ Simpson (as if there is really another OJ) appeared on an internet interview show (MN1 Studio)(NOTE: this is not a link to the video, just the site that hosted the interview) regarding his feelings about Ron Goldman's family, "the Goldmans" and his wife's family, "the Browns" with regard to their initial censure of his book "If I Did It" a fictional book regarding how OJ would have killed his wife and her dildo, I mean waiter friend Ron. OJ apparently stated that if his book was so bad, and considered "blood money" by the Browns and Goldmans, then isnt it interesting that they wanted the profits from the book if it were to be released. OJ basically wondered why it was blood money when it went into his pockets and NOT blood money when it went into their pockets. I HEAR HIM actually. Apparently the best part of the show, however, was when listeners called in to ask questions. One question of particular interest, and hilarity, was posed; "OJ, what do you think was harder, gaining 2000 yards in the NFL, or, slicing two necks in one night?" -- ROFL.

I guess what I love the most about the question is that I thought I lived in a country that embraced its "innocent until proven guilty" dogma, when in fact, I live in a country that is really "guilty until proven innocent you black bastard". Praise OOSSAAH (OOSSAAH = USA phonetically speaking).



3. Sports related: the NBA has secured more fans for the upcoming season by somehow allowing Kevin Garnett to be traded to the Boston Celtics in a 7 for 1 player deal. The Celtics now have a legitimate chance to make the playoffs for the first time since the late 80's early 90's, or lets say make the playoffs and compete at least, and suddenly the Celtics are nearly a must see team. Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce and Jesus Shuttlesworth, all on the same team is must see NBATV, seriously. From my count, in the last 4 years, the NBA has grown from perhaps a league with 3-5 must see teams, to a league that now has: The Lakers (always fun to watch Kobe), The Mavs, The Jazz, The Cavs, The Suns, The Rockets, The Spurs (note: if Tony Parker was from the USA he'd be the FACE of the NBA, but he's from France, and Americans are perfectly xenophobic), The Heat, The Celtics, The Bulls, The Nuggets, and The Warriors. I'd watch any of these teams play each other during the season, which is about a 1000% increase in my NBA appreciation. Oh, there are at least two teams that might be interesting: The Magic and The Pistons (sure the Pistons should be listed in the first group, but... well... I have my reasons).
Tha Raiders bought Dante Culpepper for one year. YAY Raiders, its very very hard to strive for crappyness and to date, the Raiders are nearly perfect at it.

So, Morning Commute No. 1 comes to an end.
