random thoughts for thursday february 19th, 2009

1.  if i could work at any radio station in the united states, where would it be?  easy…..wsm  650 am in nashville, tennessee….this is the “heritage” station in nashville, and is the home of the “grand ole opry.”  the announcers on the station also double as announcers at the grand ole opry, which is the dream job that i have.

2.  last night at confirmation at st. john’s in hecla, we watched the mel gibson movie “the passion of the christ.”  we did this with ash wednesday and the lenten season coming up…..EVERYONE needs to see this movie during lent.  it really gets you thinking, and totally visualizes what took place back then.

3.  speaking of hecla, i was thinking on the way up there last night, that i really love the drive up there and back.  it gives me time to think, listen to the radio, and blare my radio with the latest cd’s that i have.  i usually grab a case of cd’s from home, and max out the volume all the way up….geez…no wonder i have hearing problems…ha ha

4.  spent some time with steve biegler at biegler motors in aberdeen yesterday…he is simply and truly one of the nicest guys out there…….

5.  whatever happened to “chicken salad spreadables” that they used to have in the stores?  i used to LIVE on that stuff……

6.  a food i can’t eat?  chicken broth and jello……back in 1986 and 1987 when i had major stomach problems and had to have half my stomach and a foot of intestine removed,  all i could eat was broth and jello for the longest time….i can’t even look at the crap anymore….which is too bad, because jello mixed in with whipped cream was one of  my favorite desserts growing up…not any more.

7.  authorities speculate that billions of dollars worth of pot is growing in california forests….now when the bears invade your campsite, all they’re looking for are doritos…..

8.  ronnie wood might get booted from a proposed rolling stones tour because of his drinking…here’s my question…HOW THE HELL MUCH PARTYING DO YOU HAVE TO DO TO GET KICKED OFF A ROLLING STONES TOUR?  how did keith richards last this long?

9.  “sesame street” turns 40 this year…and my how the things have changed…”the count” now counts his bowel movements…..”oscar the grouch” yells at kids to get off of his yard.  and “ernie and bert” are finally married.

10.  there’s a new company that’s making ‘star trek perfume.’…it’s designed for women to put it in places where “no star trek fan has ever gone before.”

11.  a salt lake city woman used a “wedgie” to pin down a man who was breaking into her car…..then the cops showed up and subdued the guy with a “wet willie” and a “hertz donut.”

12.  JOKE OF THE DAY:

Three dead bodies turn up at the mortuary, all with very big smiles on their
faces. The coroner calls in the police to tell them what has happened.
    First body: “Frenchman, 60, died of heart failure while making love to his
mistress. Hence the enormous smile, inspector”, says the Coroner.
    Second body: “Scotsman, 25, won a thousand pounds on the lottery, spent it
all on whisky, died of alcohol poisoning, hence the smile.”
    The Inspector asked, “What of the third body?”
    “”This is the most unusual one: Big Seamus Quinn from Donegal, 30, struck by
lightning” says the coroner.
    “Why is he smiling then?” inquires the Inspector.
    “He thought he was having his photo taken.”

HAVE A SUPER DUPER THURSDAY…..
