Very nice new feature from Gmail to help you avoid stupid attacks of sincerity driven by alcohol, the Google labs mail goggles feature to prevent drunkmail is pretty handy... except that my math "skills" are so questionable that I wouldn't be surprised if I hosed one of these while sober...
Gregg Stepp has some of the best live and local compelling radio that you'll hear today...
COX Classic Rocker WFYV (ROCK105)/JACKSONVILLE, FL afternoon man GREGG STEPP gave what he called his "15-seconds notice" on the air and walked off his show upon hearing, then allegedly confirming the rumor that COX "upper management" were planning to let him go after his show this FRIDAY
"I'd like to give the big middle finger to upper management," he shouted live on-air. But then thanked his local co-workers and bosses. Then STEPP continued to rail against "COX upper management" calling a couple out by name. He then exited with "Kiss my ass ... I'm gone!"
Here's David Letterman in a rare guest shot on Mork & Mindy. I watch Letterman all the time but never knew he had originally wanted to be an actor.I loved Robin Williams when I was a kid.
This dog not only escapes the cage, but he frees his little friends too! Notice how he grabs the other guys bone after freeing him. lol pretty smart little dogs...

KRMD broadcasts wouldn't be the same without streeteam leader Charlie Spraggins
... such a likeable guy ...no matter how much he makes fun of me, and that's a lot.
I just cant get mad at him.
great smile, fun personality
two little devil horns.
The next time you visit a KRMD live broadcast, look for the guy giving me the hardest time.
Check out this cool video I filmed today at the Bonnie & Cyde Trade Days broadcast, where Charlie has bet me, a whole dollar that he can win a prize on his first try at one of those swing a sledgehammer and try to ring the bell games that you see at the fair.
Only willing to bet a buck should have been my first clue that he wasn't going to be able to swing the sledgehammer hard enough to hit the bell on his first attempt.No matter how cocky he was about ringing that bell on the first try. I'll be honest and say it took me 3 attempts before I hit the damn thing.But, my first try came close to the top Charlies only attempt came close to the bottom..video goodness and the crowds reaction below.
A Marine sergeant singled out by President Bush for throwing his body on a grenade to save his comrades in Iraq will not recieve the Congressional Medal Of Honor.
Sgt. Rafael Peralta, lay wounded on the floor of a house and grabbed a grenade that had been lobbed by an insurgent. He absorbed the blast with his body, dying instantly.
I'm still trying to figure out what may have played into their decision... the fact he was already wounded, maybe by friendly fire, Or that it's not a "declared war". Whether he was already wounded or not has nothing to do with the situation. He gave his life not only for this country, but for the fellow soldiers that would have been killed by the explosive. If that isn't grounds for the CMH, then noone deserves to get it. The CMH has been given to soldiers that saved other lives by carrying soldiers to saftey, allowing them to live is just as heroic. This whole matter is just supposition, that others would have jumped on the grenade..Boggles the mind.
A judge in Florida says Riviera Beach's "saggy pants" law is unconstitutional in the case of a 17-year-old who spent a night in jail for having his underwear showing. In Shreveport, you cannot be arrested for violating the “Saggy Pants” ordinance, but you could be fined or required to perform community service. The maximum fine for a first offense is $100. In Bossier City, at Louisiana Boardwalk, they make you leave the property(It's Private Property)and if you refuse to leave, then you'll be going to jail for remaining after forbidden.
Maybe Im the crazy one here, but I think The police have more important things to do than chase young boys and girls and say 'pull your pants up. I am pretty sure millions of american soldiers fought and died so this country could be known as the "land of the free" free of oppression, freedom of speech, freedom of wearing our pants anyway or any where we want!! If I want to wear my pants half way down my butt, or half way down my head, I have the freedom to do so.
Whatever you think of Howard Stern, I have to say he always makes me laugh and I was rolling on this one. Here two of the guys from his show pretend To Make-Out Behind CNN Reporter During This Mornings Broadcast.
I take pictures of everything, and If I'm not taking pictures I'm shooting video...I do it because I enjoy it, not to make money. The papparazzi do it for the money and I suppose that is a different deal to the artists. As annoying as photographers can be, they do have the right to do what they do. Celebrities know this. They have chosen a very public profession. They do not have the right to destroy property. He doesn't have any children with him, he's not protecting family. Why not just completely ignore the paps like every other celebrity, It's just my opinion but I think Kanye West knows this is just a misdemeanor and he can get off with a bit of anger management and no jail time.
"This commercial was done by a local kid. You have to watch the whole thing. When he finishes talking and walks away, you get a sense of how this could be the commercial of the campaign season.
Bob Cook and I were on the Lake County Republican Central Committee together. His son Joe returned from Iraq last year and I was at the celebration to welcome him home."
Hi, My son Joe just did a commercial for John McCain. Please pass this on. Thanks Bob Cook
The '80s rock band Heart is not happy about John McCain's running mate Sarah Palin using their song "Barracuda" at the Republican National Convention. When the Alaska governor was a high school basketball champ, her teammates nicknamed her “Sarah Barracuda.”
"The Republican campaign did not ask for permission to use the song, nor would they have been granted that permission. We have asked the Republican campaign publicly not to use our music. We hope our wishes will be honored," the band said in a statement on Thursday.
Last week, right before McCain introduced Palin in Dayton, Ohio, he played the song "Right Now” by Van Halen. A few hours later, Van Halen’s publicist told MTV News that the hopeful was never granted permission to use the track, and had permission been sought, it would never have been granted.
This February, John Mellencamp told McCain to stop using his songs, "Our Country" and "Pink Houses," on the campaign trial. Anyway, I thought this was a great opportunity to break out the video for "Barracuda"...the song rocks and Ann was pretty hot back then... Sarah Palin has come a long way since her Sports Reporting days.
Here's 23 year old Sarah Heath as a Sportscaster in 1988...
Don LaFontaine has passed away at the age of 68. Don passed away at around 1:50PM Monday (9/1/08). He was the best of the best voice-over actors in the world. Going to the theater and hearing his movie trailers on the big surround sound system was worth the money regardless of whether or not the featured movie was any good. Many of you have a myspace account and it's always cool when someone adds you as a friend. I'm on www.voiceoveruniverse.com It's like myspace only it's for people who do voice over, I was floored when Don actually added me as his friend. A great man has passed on to a better place
George Strait and Kenny Chesney are hanging and Kenny's got the island music going,
that and the blender...
All of a sudden George says to Kenny "take a listen to this song see what you think",
....every body wants to go to heaven.,nobody wants to go now.,
Kenny's like "that's a cool song, I like it". Next thing you know he tells his people he intends to release that song as a single on his next CD.
BUT Kenny didn't go thru the proper channels.
George also recorded the song for his latest album "Troubadour". Everyone at his record label thinks it could be a hit record, and they also have plans to release it to radio as a single.
Once George's people heard Kenny had released the song as a single, they went nuclear.
Kenny knows what a problem he has on his hands and has even gone to George's manager Erv Woolsey to apologize.
The suits over at George's label are focused right now on getting his latest song "Troubadour" to number one. If Troubadour hits the top ofthe Billboard Chart it will be his 57th number one song and it would break his own record of 56 number one singles. (the most in recorded music history)
After that, the label will decide whether or not to release the George Strait version of "Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven.
Meanwhile George is so PO'd that he has contacted the powers that be over at the CMA and the ACM's, to make sure come awards time that his seats are nowhere near Kenny Chesney's section.
Imagine awards night and the look on George Strait's face as he looks up at the stage as Kenny Chesney accepts his award for "Everybody Wants To Go The Heaven"
Or if George's version of the song is released, and all the radio stations put both versions against each other on the stations "Song Wars" feature.
If this really blows up, I'm sure the Awards shows producers will be taking full advantage of this deal for ratings.
I can hear the clips from "Pure Country" now
"Go on get your ass outta here"
I'm hoping George Strait will call in for an interview soon, I can hear him now ...and don't ever play shiftwork again either! %##@@!*%
Everybody Wants To Go Heaven No. 6 After 3rd Week of Release Chesney's Lucky Old Sun Lead Single Is Blazing – Album October 14
Nashville: When Kenny Chesney drops new music, it's always cause for excitement. With his Poets & Pirates tour winding down - two weekends from what will no doubt be the party of the year in Indianapolis' Lincoln Oil Stadium, the fans are in a full-boil over the Luttrell, Tennessean's laidback kind of country.
Add to the mix brand new music that is so classically Kenny, like his Oct. 14th street date Lucky Old Sun with its lead single, “Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven,” and watch Chesney go to #6 on the Billboard Country Singles chart three short weeks after add date.
“It's a song that really is everything my fans like, live, love, breath,” laughs the high energy entertainer who knows how to chill out whenever possible. “I look around and I see people who know how to have a good time, and they do it every chance they can. These are good people, living good lives - and of course they wanna go to heaven… But they just wanna have a few more good times here on earth before they do.”
Mining the notion of redemption not being opposed to fun-living, “Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven” merges the fundamental notion of religion that grounded Chesney's “I Go Back” with the good timing reality of “When The Sun Goes Down,” “No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problems” and “Never Wanted Nothing More.”
Named for the Tin Pan Ally standard that served as Chesney's first recording with the legendary Willie Nelson, Lucky Old Sun is slated for a deluxe edition release on October 14th. That will be followed by a conventional music only version in-stores on Oct. 21.
“I know this is a really fun song,” Chesney concedes, “and there is a bunch more like it on this record. But this is an album that goes deeper, gives the fans a clearer picture of who I am right now, I feel and how I got here. If Be As You Are was more of a road trip to the places I drink beer in the islands, this is more how the islands - and anywhere there's coast, really, Mexico, Florida, Virgin Islands, the Pacific Coast Highway in California - have shaped who I'm becoming.”
As the Corona Extra sponsored Poets & Pirates Tour winds down, Chesney is finishing off quite a chapter in his life. Logging his 15th straight chart-topper with the multiple week #1 “Better As A Memory,: Chesney is looking at his seventh straight summer of selling in excess of a million tickets… and being a pivotal force in seeing the 23rd Farm Aid Concert sell-out on the day tickets went on sale.
“This is a good time for this music,” Chesney says. “I'm at a place in my life where the things I was figuring out with Just Who I Am were ready to be realized on a record. I'm very grateful my label was able to help me release it now… as it's a record that reflects where I am in this moment.”
Check out the trailer for this new movie. An inconvenient truth on the nation's economy. Since the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the U.S. has doled out almost $860 billion for military operations in Afghanistan, Iraq and elsewhere around the world. The National Debt is now at 9.5 Trillion Dollars.I wonder which candidate for president will make this issue a top priority.
I have had a number of dreams about tornado's. There used to be an AMC theater in Mall St. Vincent where KRMD would hold Movie Premiere's..Remember "Twister"
Marketing earned their money on this one. Take a video posted on you tube and run with it to promote a new Tiger Woods game. He probably could actually make this shot.
Friday, August 8th, we crashed an American Idol audition in Kansas City. I wasn't trying out, however, they did stick a camera and mic in my face and asked me to do the line "American Idol, welcome back to Kansas City". I'll fall out if they actually use it when the show airs on FOX.Then I thought Elvis had walked in when I heard all the screaming, but it was just Ryan Seacrest.
The Burger King employee who took a bath in the Kitchen Sink is now in a Six Flags commercial. After all the bad publicity Burger King recieved it looks as if the suits at BK have made the best of a bad situation by teaming up with Six Flags to make fun of Mr. Unstabl3 in this spot for Six Flags.
It started as a birthday joke. An employee at a Burger King restaurant near Dayton, Ohio apparently decided to follow the restaurant's motto to "have it your way" and filmed himself as he took a bath in the fast food restaurant's big kitchen sink. The worker, 25-year-old Timothy Tackett, who describes himself on his YouTube page as "Mr. Unstabl3," is seen in the video shirtless and apparently pantless as he bathes himself in the soapy waters of the sink. At one point in the video, the camera operator takes the camera to the front counter of the restaurant where a manager or supervisor appears to be counting the money for the day. The camera operator explains that the employee is taking a naked bath but the person counting the money does not move. A spokesperson for Burger King told the Associated Press that two employees involved in the incident were fired and another quit. Meanwhile, the sink had to be scrubbed and cleaned and inspected by health department officials. The restaurant also said it threw away all of all kitchen tools and utensils used in the video.
