I’m in a great mood!  Won’t lie quite giddy to get a few days away and some sun!  My skin has negative color…for reals!

New Champ tonight in the Cockfight Atreyu over Black Robots cover of JJ Cale’s “Cocaine”.

Jeetz will be filling for me Thurs and Fri.  Speaking of Friday BJ Shea’s featured Loud And Local Band of The Week is No Ground!  Check out BJ’s page for more.

Gotta kick outta this story.

MEN OWE WOMEN FOR CREATING BEER

According to historian Jane Peyton, men owe women for “creating beer,” claiming that beer never would have existed without the entrepreneurial skills of women.

Despite the fact that beer is now almost exclusively marketed to men, for thousands of years, only women were allowed to operate breweries and drink beer.

It was only 200 years ago that men began drinking it and it became what is considered a very male drink.

Peyton studied 7,000 years of history to come to her conclusion. “I know men will be absolutely stunned to find this out, but they’ve got women to thank for beer,” she said.

Alright my lovlies….I’ve got a small mountian of work to finish up.  Till Sunday night for Loud And Local have a great 2nd half of your week!

Cheers,
Jolene

“Hola amigos,

I was prepared to stimulate your brain and entertain your mind with my usual award winning wit (which is clearly a lie) but after suffering through multiple F!@*ING computer issues on this fine day, it’s just not going to happen.  The really sad part is that today I was going to do something entirely different with my blog… and that was to do a good job.

Tomorrow will be a better day… or not, but let’s hope so.

Until tomorrow, smile, laugh and STAY BEAUTIFUL!”

All right bloggers, its time for the final installment of “JEETZ goes Hollywood”.

There’s a video spreading virally called “Scarface School Play” – it’s a group of elementary school children acting out the movie Scarface as a school play. They did change a few things as they replaced all of the swearing with non-explicit words like “mother-fudger” or “son of a bee,” and instead of a pile of cocaine on the table they replaced it with popcorn.

This video was made to look like a real play at a school, but it was actually made by music video director Marc Klasfeld, and he even posted it on a phony YouTube account to make it look like a mom posted it. Here is the video:

Now even though it’s a fake school play, many people are upset that it was still acted out by elementary age kids. I don’t see the problem with this video because the kids didn’t use any bad language and they don’t even know what they are talking about.

How are these kids any different than real child actors? There are child actors that play characters that are molested, abused, killed, etc, so I don’t understand how this play is harming the children.

My guess is that it’s primarily mothers out there that are complaining about this video. It’s time for men to really step up and take some power back. Every father has done this, they let their kids say or do something that they find funny, and the little kids don’t understand what’s going on. Men understand that this is not harmful, but yet we let women make it out to seem that way. I don’t believe there is a guy out there that saw this video and was appalled…unless there was a woman present!

As long as kids aren’t doing anything illegal there should be no problem. It was a cute, funny skit that isn’t harmful at all!

This morning we had Annabelle on the show…she was off for the last 2 days, as she went off to NYC to have lunch with actor Paul Rudd (I Love You Man, Anchor Man, Knocked Up, etc).  No, she isn’t friends with Paul, her parents bid on a charity auction to have lunch with him…it cost over $7000.  Annabelle said it was a lot of fun, although she spent the whole time asking Paul about his buddy, actor Jason Segal (I guess she has a crush on him).  Paul even texted a pic of Annabelle to Jason…how funny is that!  While we chatted with Annabelle, we learned some things about her:

• She once owned a Pink Hummer
• Eventually sold it to a girl that was featured on “My Sweet 16” show on MTV
• Annabelle’s family was approached to be on “My Sweet 16” – they said no.
• Won’t eat in public.
• Had a “Pimp’s N’ Ho’s” Party for her 18th Birthday, and it was catered by Taco Bell.

The Rev brought up something that led to a fun topic his morning…the Rev had his girlfriend watch Point Break because she hasn’t seen it…I guess this has turned into a mission of the Rev’s…he wants to have her watch films that he would consider to be “essential” guy movies.  I see where he is coming…over the weekend, my woman said that she hasn’t watched ROCKY, and has no interest in ever seeing it…this broke my heart…every American…man or woman…needs to watch ROCKY!!!!  Hell, ROCKY II, III, IV, and Rocky Balboa (Rocky 6) are must watches as well.  We all agreed…movies are so important in a dudes life…we love b.s.’ing about them, and when you can get your girl into movies that you did, it’s a great moment.  I love that my gal loves Beer Fest, and I was so stoked that when we saw Inglourious Basterds, she loved it so much that she wants to see other Tarantino flicks.  Double R said that for him it’s Caddyshack, and for Toppy it’s Sex Drive, and for BJ it’s Star Wars & Star Trek.

We were talking about some controversy brewing regarding what to do with the Seattle Center…they are getting rid of the Fun Forrest, and there are talks about having a Dale Chihuly glass art exhibit…some love it, some hate it…if you ask me…keep the name, and open a Strip Club.  Get it?  FUN FORREST.  It could be a 70’s themed club.

Big thanks to Maynard James Keenan of TOOL for joining us this morning.  Maynard was on to promote a great documentary he is a part of called “Blood Into Wine” – a film about Maynard’s involvement with making wine in Arizona.  Honestly, I thought the film would be interesting…but it’s more than interesting…it was an amazing movie.  If you love TOOL or wine, I honestly think you will love this movie.  Plus I think you will get a newfound respect for Maynard…you can tell how passionate he is about wine.  Maynard is a tough interview, but I enjoy chatting with him.  Check out his wine at www.caduceus.org Here is a trailer for the movie:

Today’s Video Blog features some birthday gifts for Double R:

Here is the same VLOG for you iPHONE people.

Last week, if you read my blog you saw a video of me learning about Starbucks…well I continue to get schooled on the different types of blends, here is the latest installment of me hanging with Mikey from Starbucks!

“Hola no one is fooledolas,

Just yesterday, the gayest man in America, Ricky Martin, not your uncle Sid, came out of the closet and announced to the world that not only is he gay, he’s a “proud gay man”… which would be infinitely more believable if he hadn’t been denying it for the last 10 years, but whatever.  Other than Miles winning a cool $100 in our gay pool, we really don’t a rat’s pink ass if he’s gay or not, we just wonder who HE thinks he may have been fooling during his decade of denial.  The point we’re making here is that Ricky did a piss poor job of hiding his sexuality.  On the topic of a bad job of hiding things, America’s reigning ‘hot mess’, Lindsay Lohan, not your mother, was back in the headlines yesterday and, as usual, it had nothing to do with anything professional, positive or reaffirming.  Instead, pictures of Lindsay walking out of a club were all over the internet.  What’s the big about the pictures?  Fair question as we’ve all been ‘treated’ to photos of her sloppy freckled boobs, or that pasty set of buffalo gums she calls a vagina, but this time it was a picture of Lindsay walking out of a club (feign surprise) with clouds of cocaine billowing out of her shoes after her baggies ruptured.  A chalky, white mist hovered around her ankles like some narcotic ghost and she was completely oblivious.  Hey, I get it; all of us have tried to hide something at some point and all of us have failed miserably at it too.  Just ask tiger Woods or Jesse James or Larry Craig or Elliot Spitzer or Jon Edwards or O.J. Simpson or Bill Clinton.  WHEN IT COMES TO HIDING SOMETHING FROM SOMEBODY, WHEN DID YOU KNOW YOU’D FAILED?

I have very unsuccessfully attempted to hide everything.  I’m SO bad at it that it behooved me to just cop to what a terrible habit having wreck of a human being I am… and it’s very liberating.  As a result, the only thing I hide now is the fact that I’m actually a nice guy… but no one believes that anyway; probably because my version of ‘nice’ is I didn’t stab you.  I’m kidding… or am I?

Enough of my evasive blabbing, here’s some of what you had to say:

His wife, I mean ex- wife, caught him receiving some mouth to penis resuscitation by someone who wasn’t her

His mom busted his weed growing operation after noticing the faint glow of his grow lights under the closet door

Got caught stealing guns from his neighbors house

Wife caught him looking at porn… which isn’t so bad, but there’s nothing worse than being in the middle of your business and someone walks in on you

Our Canadian friend got busted at the border trying to sneak illegal fireworks over the border

His mother busted him being high… because he couldn’t stop laughing

Realized his mother had discovered his VHS porn collection when he found them in her room

Guy dated a single mom for a while who happened to have a 16 year old kid.  Against his better judgment, he smoked weed and dropped acid with the 16 year old.

Tried to fool the drug test with synthetic urine… and fooled no one

OK, time to go.  Getting my head together to host trivia.  Always a good time to be a trivia host because when you ASK the questions, people think you’re smart.  Perfect.

Until tomorrow, do what you do best and STAY BEAUTIFUL!”

STP talked about some woman named Michelle Mizner this morning during his news segment.  Michelle is an assistant manager of a Jack in the Box in West Seattle that plotted to have her own restaurant robbed. She got one of her co-workers to be her accomplice and went as far as to ask them to shoot her to make the robbery seem more authentic (which they didn’t do, they ended up punching her in the eye instead).

Back in February, when the robbery happened, she told the police that she was punched in the eye and was forced to open up a vault, and that they got away with $7,000. Last week the police received a tip that three other people were involved, and when they re-interviewed her she confessed to everything…saying that she was in debt and needed to support her family.

Mizner also confessed to stealing $2,000 from Jack in the Box in the previous year, and at one point took $700 in cash and blamed it on another employee who was subsequently fired. What a horrible woman to not only cost someone their job, but their possible chances to get another one.

She said she needed the $7,000 because of her family, and because of debt…this makes me think that drugs are involved, or she’s providing for children that she shouldn’t have in her care to begin with.  An assistant manager make on average $28,000 a year, and at 33 years old, shouldn’t she have moved up the ranks by now? A manager at a fast food place can make around $40,000, which is a decent living!

Mizner could have been making and extra $13,000 if she just used her brain a little more.  If you want to rise up in any company, fast food or not, you have to work your tail off, and one day you can make a decent living.

This morning we talked about this hilarious video we found online.  It’s a video of kids re-enacting some scenes from Scarface.  The rumor was that this was at a school play…but in actuality it was a music video director that made this.  Marc Klasfeld, who directed videos for Lada Gaga & Adam Lambert, is a genius if you ask me…the stuffed tiger & the pile of popcorn were brilliant touches to make the re-enactment more “kid-like.”  I love that Marc posted this video on You Tube pretending to be one of the mom’s that filmed this “school play” – Here is the video:

Based on that Scarface video, there are people that believed that this was a real school play…and a lot of people were pissed…here are some of the comments:

It´s absolutely inacceptable for this age!! Can´t believe it!

I can’t believe this! Kids shouldn’t be exposed to this!!

This is NOT what theater is about. These teachers should be ashamed of themselves. Have them actually do something age appropriate. If this was even done at my HIGHschool, you would have so many parents mad at this. Those kids probably don’t even know what they’re saying. How dare anyone support this. You’re glorifying a gang for God’s sake.I hope whoever is responsible for this being in a school play — if that’s what it is — is removed from the educational system. This is disgraceful.

This is just horrendous. Fake or not these kids are still saying what they’re saying and it’s completely wrong!

One guy that called into our show summed it up best…this is Cute & Hilarious.  I couldn’t agree more. I love it when kids act out adult things.  Like those silly videos of kids at a bar doing shots of milk…or one f my favorite viral videos is of that 4 year old re-enacting the famous Herb Brooks speech in the film Miracle (about the 1980 US Olympic Hockey Team…Herb was the coach).

So Ricky Martin just came out of the closet…that’s a shocker.  In other shocking unexpected news…I’m losing my hair.

Today’s Video Blog features video from when we had Kevin Nealon in studio!

Here is the same VLOG for you iPHONE people.

    What up blogger? So how about this weather the last two days it’s carzy son. Yeah you know what I be talking about yeah. It be raining then it be sunny as a muthaf**ker out this bitch. So that reminded me of channel that I love a lot and watch very often and that channel is the weather channel. I like to get my weather from my boy Walter Kelly on Q13 news at 10 but sometimes Walter is not on since it is in the morning and I like to go to the weather channel because I can always check the radar and see what is going on. i like to think of my-self as a amature weather guy. Sometimes I think if I just look at the radar the night before I can call the weather my-self. Holla

Ozzy Ozzy Ozzy!

Ozzy Osbourne’s new song, “Let Me Hear You Scream”, from his upcoming Epic Records album, “Scream”, will have its world premiere during an episode of “CSI: NY”, to be broadcast Wednesday, April 14 (10:00-11:00 p.m., ET/PT) on the CBS television network.

In the episode, “Redemptio,” a death row inmate’s (guest star Harold Perrineau, “Lost”) final request brings Dr. Hawkes (series regular Hill Harper) to a Pennsylvania prison and face-to-face with a tragic incident that he has kept secret for many years, just as a prison riot erupts and traps Hawkes inside. The story was written by executive producer Peter M. Lenkov, with the teleplay by Lenkov and Bill Haynes.

“We were looking for something high energy and irreverent to sell the madness of a prison riot,” said executive producer and episode writer Peter M. Lenkov. “We immediately responded to the new Osbourne tune. The song exceeded our expectations and brought exactly the right tone to the episode.”

“When I heard they were going to use ‘Let Me Hear You Scream’ for a prison riot scene, I thought, ‘Well, now that’s something I know about,’” says Ozzy, who spent time in prison in the U.K. for burglary before his 18th birthday.

Ozzy Osbourne’s career has spanned four decades and his music is as relevant today as ever. The multi-platinum, Grammy Award-winning, Rock and Roll Hall of Famer has sold over 100 million albums worldwide — 50 million with BLACK SABBATH and as many as a solo artist. In 2003, he was honored with a star on Hollywood Boulevard’s Walk of Fame. Osbourne is not only a legend and an icon, but is a pioneer in his genre of music.

“CSI: NY”, a crime drama inspired by the drama series “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation”, is about forensic investigators who use high-tech science to follow the evidence and solve crimes in the Big Apple.

Ok I’ve got more to do!  Enjoy your night.
