A Couple of Things…

Shooting Hoops1.  Shooting hoops is still my favorite form of exercise.  Maggie McKinney joined me recently and she may just consider joining me more often!  I sincerely hope so!!


2.  People having difficulties with the time change need to heed my advice.  Go to bed when you’re tired and not by what the clock says.  I never feel like I’ve lost or gained an hour.  Could just be me though.


3.  Just my opinion, but people should not say, “I miss you” if they don’t mean it.


4.  True story: When I use to work overnights at 96-ZTR, I would hang out on-the-air with the morning show guys as we transitioned between our shifts. Jimmy Baron like to ask about Chris because we were still newlyweds at the time and he loved to refer to him as the C-Man, which you know, if you say it just right….


5.  From my “You Never Know Who You Will Run Into” file, I ran into Kevin Costner at Ventura College during a Ventura High Cougar’s CIF playoff game February 2011.  He was sitting in front of us with some friends and his young son.   I understand he grew up here in Ventura, but I think he was a Bulldog.

6.  I saw an article called, “17 Signs That You’d Qualify as a Witch in 1692.”
#1.  You are female.

Bummer


7.  Recent headline:  “Sewer was blocked by large Pooh.”
Poor Pooh!


8.  They say as soon as you give birth, you forget the pain.  Well I say, That’s such a crock of shit!  I remember it clearly!  By the way, “When was the last time you called your mother Sydney Rose????”

Yeah, I know, I’d do it again in a heartbeat.Sydney


9. I did a post on Facebook about how I loathe the expression, “It’s not personal, it’s business.” I have a hard time wrapping my head around that saying, because people fall back on that when they’ve done something that wasn’t quite cool, or fair.

There’s a great scene in the movie, You’ve Got Mail, covering this very subject when he ran her out of business.

Joe Fox: It wasn’t… personal.
Kathleen Kelly: What is that supposed to mean? I am so sick of that. All that means is that it wasn’t personal to you. But it was personal to me. It’s *personal* to a lot of people. And what’s so wrong with being personal, anyway?
Joe Fox: Uh, nothing.
Kathleen Kelly: Whatever else anything is, it ought to begin by being personal.

I love that movie!


From my “Little Did They Know” file, I bawled my eyes out during The Nutty Professor remake years ago, the one with Eddie Murphy?  It was that scene where he is the fat version of himself, and he is out on a date at a comedy club where the comedian just insults the bejebbers out of him.  He just sat there and took it and I was a just a blubbering mess.


11.  Sticking with movies, I am so behind on seeing the latest movies out.  The last one was American Hustle on Christmas, and the only movie I had seen that was nominated for anything at the Academy Awards this year. I kinda wanna see Mr. Peabody & Sherman (probably not a contender for next year’s award season).


12.  From my favorite quotes file:  “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.” – Wayne Gretzky

Thanks for listening!
