2. happy birthday wishes are going out to a great actor by the name of EARL HOLLIMAN…do you remember him?
EARL HOLLIMAN starred with ANGIE DICKINSON in a great tv show called “POLICE WOMAN.”
do you remember the opening credits? oh, i think you will!!
EARL HOLLIMAN is turning 83 years old on sunday…here’s what he looks like today…
and just in case you’re wondering what ANGIE DICKINSON looks like today, let’s find out…by the way, did you know that ANGIE DICKINSON is from KULM, NORTH DAKOTA? yep, she is, and she will celebrate her 80th birthday on september 30th…
3. we have a milestone birthday…”DUKES OF HAZZARD” star TOM WOPAT turns 60 today…can you beleive that? TOM WOPAT starred with JOHN SCHNEIDER and SOUTH DAKOTA native CATHERINE BACH on the hit tv show…
here’s TOM WOPAT today on his 60th birthday…
and here’s a fairly recent picture of TOM WOPAT and JOHN SCHNEIDER….by the way, JOHN is now 51…i had no idea they were nine years apart..
and what about CATHERINE BACH? well, she’s a native of FAITH, SOUTH DAKOTA, and graduated from RAPID CITY STEVEN’S HIGH SCHOOL…she is now 57 years old…
4. WHAT A FANTASTIC FOOTBALL GAME LAST NIGHT….the NFL season is now underway, after the GREEN BAY PACKERS defeated the NEW ORLEANS SAINTS last night 42-34…high scoring affair…the game went down to the last play, as the SAINTS stalled at the ONE yard line…..the game featured not ONE, but TWO kickoff returns for touchdowns…the PACKERS one was a 108 yard return from deep in the end zone….i hope sunday’s games are this thrilling…
5. i cannot WAIT until sunday at 3:00…thats when my WASHINGTON REDSKINS kick off their season against the NEW YORK GIANTS….i hope they start out tough and make us skin’s fans proud…i’d rather feel like this…
and i’d rather not feel like this on monday…
6. speaking of sports, if you want to come to an exciting and super fun church service, come on up to ST. JOHN’S LUTHERAN in HECLA, or TRINITY LUTHERAN in HOUGHTON this sunday..it’s our annual sunday school rally day and SPIRIT SUNDAY….everybody wears their favorite sports jerseys and t-shirts, and we decorate the church with sports memorabilia….the sermon will be on “sports spirit” vs. “the holy spirit.” it’s always a fun day…HECLA church service is at 9am, and HOUGHTON’S is at 11am…would love to see you there….
7. there are two new movies coming out this weekend, one i am DEFINETLY NOT going to see, and the other one i’m undecided….the one i DEFINETLY AM NOT going to see is a movie that, preview wise, looks incredibly stupid…it’s comedian NICK SWARDSON in a movie called “BUCKY LARSON: BORN TO BE A STAR.”
i thought the movie preview was almost painful to watch….in fact, i looked at my wife JEANNIE, and had a dumbfounded look…unless i have a SERIOUS change of heart, i will not be seeing this one.
the one that i can’t decide if i want to see or not is MATT DAMON, KATE WINSLET, and GWYNETH PALTROW in a movie called “CONTAGION.”….it’s yet another story of a “virus” getting loose and killing people…preview wise it looks like it’s a movie that’s been done dozens of times…we’ll have to see if it’s any different than others…
8. in a new zogby poll, AMERICANS ranked PRESIDENT OBAMA as five times worse at fixing the economy than JIMMY CARTER…..JIMMY CARTER at least, would build you a new home after your other one got forclosed on…..
9. MITT ROMNEY and RICK PERRY got into a heated argument at the republican debate the other night over which one created more jobs….that was until JON HUNTSMAN interrupted to note that under him, UTAH has the best job creation record….so, PERRY and ROMNEY did the obvious thing…they depantsed HUNTSMAN and taped him to a goal post…
10. a new study found that marijuana smokers are less likely to be obese…that’s mainly because when they are stoned they can’t remember the entire phone number to dominos….
11. as we already talked about, a MISSISSIPPI man tried to steal live lobsters from a grocery store by stuffing them into his underwear….police charged him with a misdemeanor, but the lobsters want the death penalty…
12. a 42 year old DUTCH woman allegedly called her ex-boyfriend 65,000 times in the past year…in her defense, she WAS a telemarketer….
13. REESE WITHERSPOON was hit by a car while jogging in LOS ANGELES…the good news is that she’s okay…the REALLY good news is that this was her first hit in many years…
14. PARIS HILTON is studying with some of the biggest house disc jockeys in the business, in preparation for her upcoming house music cd…..PARIS is scratching beats on turntables while her old boyfriends also do a lot of scratching, followed by antibiotics….
15. in SWEDEN, a drunk elk was found stuck in a tree…a true true PARTY ANIMAL…
16. former LIBYAN dictator MOAMMAR GADDAFI is looking for a new place to hide where nobody will see him…may i suggest the theater that will be playing the new “BUCKY LARSON” movie?
17. as i mentioned a little while ago, the movie ‘CONTAGION’ opens up in theaters today, and it’s about a virus that causes a runaway pandemic…and like most infections, this one started on the set of “JERSEY SHORE.”
18. JOKE OF THE DAY: (thanks to my friend LLOYD in HECLA…)
Three golfers are walking down the fairway.
“Actually,” said the 80-year-old, “Eighty is the worst age of all.” “Do you have trouble peeing too?” asked the 60-year-old. “No, I pee every morning at 6.00 am. I pee like a racehorse; no problem at all.” “No, I have one every morning at 6.30 am.” Puzzled with this the 60-year-old said, “Let’s get this straight. You pee every morning at 6.00 am and poop every morning at 6.30 am. So what’s so tough about being 80?” “I don’t wake up until seven.” |
HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND EVERYBODY!!
