Have you heard of Electron Boy? According to the Seattle Times, Electron Boy is the alter ego of 13 year old Erik Martin, a young man living with cancer. Thanks to the regional chapter of the Make- a- Wish Foundation, Erik had the chance to live out his fantasy of being a super hero. Of course, you’re not really a super hero if you don’t actually rescue anyone from a super VILLAIN. Well, it turns out that the Seattle Sounders were being held hostage by none other than Dr. Dark and Blackout Boy. Electron Boy saved the day, rescued the Sounders and unmasked Dr. Dark and Blackout Boy… who turned out to be none other than Edgar Hansen and Jake Anderson from Discovery Channel’s “Deadliest Catch”… and yet no one heard about this on the news. Go figure. Anyway, Make- a- Wish gave Electron Boy the full treatment and it’s safe to say that Erik had a pretty good day yesterday. Not that YOU deserve it, but today is our Friday Fantasy Question… emphasis on ‘fantasy’. THE MAKE- A- WISH FOUNDATION GRANTS YOUR WISH; WHO WOULD YOU LIKE TO MEET, WHO WOULD LIKE THE CHANCE TO BEAT UP AND WHO WOULD YOU LIKE TO RESCUE?
Plenty of calls and e- mails today. No way I’m going through them all, but I’ll share this much with you; the person everyone wants to be up is Sully of Godsmack or Oprah (???) the people who we want to save all have large breasts and the people we want to meet are already dead. Yea, of course there was more variety than that, but that was the general gist of the day.
My favorite call of the day was from a 26 year old guy who suffers from Crones Disease. It’s serious enough that he has a colostomy bag attached to him. Well, we peppered the poor guy with all manner of questions about his poop- sack (not to make fun, but to really understand what it’s like to have to deal with something like that) and he explained what he does with it during sex, if the bags are disposable or reusable, etc, etc. We asked if the thing had ever fallen off in public, and yes it has. It fell of AT AN APPLEBEE’S. We weren’t TRYING to be insensitive, but we laughed for about 10 minutes straight.
Before I go, you may or may not have heard that I ‘powdered the satchel’ for the first time ever yesterday. ‘Powdering the satchel’ is just code for throwing Gold Bond on your testicles and letting the powder work it’s magic. I’m here to tell you that it was an epic experience. It was like a wintergreen Lifesaver for the ‘boys’. Anyway, since we have little to no shame, here’s a video of my maiden voyage into the world of minty fresh satchels. Enjoy.
There’s your awesome visual for the weekend. No, no, don’t thank me.
Bitches, ‘m asking you to have a great weekend, but don’t do it for me, do it for you.
Until Monday, do what you do best and STAY BEAUTIFUL!”
What up blogger? So how you been doing of late. You are like me sitting around going well this weather is getting better but when are we going to break out. Soon my freinds soon I hope. Now look I can’t sit here and tell you I am a big NBA or NHL fan because I am not and I do not watch that much regular season of eithier sport but the playoff’s are great. I think in any sport the playoff’s are going to be better which is true. I just think that these two sports are much differnt in playoff time but then again maybe it’s just because I care now so the games seem differnt. I can’t write a blog about this without mentioning how my CAPS choked and lost in the first round. They were the best team though-out the season but ran into a red hot goal-tender and could not score. Sad I know. I am also looking forward to seeing lebron James win a title which he will this year. Bank it folks i am saying he will win this years. Cavs over Lakers
We should be back live on Monday…based on BJ’s Facebook posting:
Hey folks, I will not be in tomorrow, but will be back on Monday. Had a good meeting today, and you know Hairclub & me… we always “hug it out.”
Since we are off again today, I am sitting at the office & thinking about some things & thought I would share them. Being that I am a fan of predominantly 3 things – wrestling, hockey, and music – I am sure it will focus on that.
I really shouldn’t talk about hockey, as these playoffs have proven that I know absolutely nothing. I was thinking one of these 4 teams would make it to the Stanley cup…from the east I had either The Caps or the Devils. Yeah sure the Devils are an emotional pick, but they finished in 2nd in the east, so it’s a legit pick as well…and the Caps, well…to quote Thee Ted Smith “they dominate.” The Caps were my pick to win the whole thing, and even though they are in the same division as the Devils, they have former T-Bird Brooks Laich on the team, and he’s a great guy (back in the day, I would have him on my old show from time to time). Also—I think it would be great for the sport if Ovechkin would win a Stanley Cup. Similar to how I was happy that the Pens/Sidney Crosby won it last year. The star players need to be champions, it can only help the sport. So those were my East picks, for the West…I had The Kings or the Coyotes going to the finals. The Kings are young and good, and the Coyotes figured out a way to win…not having Wayne Gretzky as their coach. Look, I love “The Great One”, but he was a great player…the greatest, but that almost never translates to being a great coach…and he proved that point. I don’t think in any sport can a star player become a star coach. Usually the utility type player, the guy that busts his ass for every second out on the ice/field are the ones that become great coaches. I think it has a lot to do with the fact that they see the whole game more because they don’t play as much, so they are forced to observe. The best thing that ever happened in Phoenix was that Gretzky stepped down, hell…it’s not like they could have fired the greatest ambassador that the sport has had.
So guess how those 4 teams are doing in the playoffs…they aren’t. All 4 teams were eliminated in the first round. Being that I am obviously a horrible prognosticator…based on who is left, here is what I am thing…out of the East, I am thinking it will either be the Bruins or the Penguins…out of the Western Conference, I am pulling for the Canucks or the Blackhawks. I’m feeling like we will have an “Original 6” final…The Bruins vs. the Blackhawks, with the Blackhawks winning the Stanley Cup for the first time since 1961!
I got this email the other day, and it got me thinking:
STP!!
I seriously need your help. What the hell is the point of Sheamus? I’m really failing to understand, since he’s not even a decent heel.
Dave
I agree 100% with Dave. Sheamus sucks. I just don’t get why the WWE is putting so much effort into making him a star. I get the political reason, he is buds with Triple H in real life…Triple H is married to Vince’s daughter, Stephanie McMahon. Triple H basically runs the show, and because of that we are stuck with a pale skinned, boring ass wrestler as a main event guy? Whenever he picks up the microphone or steps into the squared circle to wrestle…I hit fast forward on my DVR. I get that the WWE needs to breathe new life into it, as a lot of the bigger names have been around forever, but Sheamus? The same could be applied to Drew McIntyre. Another boring wrassler. Here are some of the new breed of the WWE that I am digging, and here are some that I think need to go:
Keep:
The Hart Dynasty – These guys kick ass…a great tribute to the hart Foundation & the British Bulldogs!
Jack Swagger – Finally he is coming into his own…I was on the fence with this dude, but I am digging the evolution of his character.
Ted DiBiase Jr. – I am so glad that the Legacy story line is fading…they needed to get him out of Orton’s shadow. I love that he has brought back the Million Dollar Belt, hopefully they will incorporate his dad more often as his dad was one of the best on the mic, and he could learn a lot from him.
Dolph Ziggler – I keep hoping they will do more with him, but he is at risk of being put on my “Bail” list…it’s not his fault, they just don’t seem to utilize him to the best of his abilities. He could be the second coming of Mr. Perfect Curt Henning.
Daniel Bryan – I’m nervous that the angle of him losing all the time on NXT will do more harm than good. They are making him look like a poor man’s Bob Backlund, when he could one day grow into our generations Bret Hart. This guy is the real deal, and he’s from Aberdeen…pretty cool!
Luke Gallows – Talk about a transformation…Festus was almost as dumb as the Doink character from back in the day. He isn’t there yet, but he has the making of becoming a big time character…similar to a Kane. The more time he spends with CM Punk, the better, as he can lean about expanding his character by being with Punk.
Bail (besides Sheamus & Drew McIntyre):
Evan Bourne –For such a high flyer…he bores me to tears.
Yoshi Tatsu – Really? Do I need to explain why.
Heath Slater – He sucks, his character sucks, is he friends with Triple H too?
Right now I would have to say the MVP’s of the WWE have to be CM Punk (this guy gets better and better on the mic, his character is the best in the biz right), Chris Jericho (want a great segment, just add Y2J, he always delivers), and The Miz (I have always been a fan of his, but I am shocked by how great he has become both on the mic & in the ring).
I came across this video on You Tube…it’s awesome, and it pisses me off. It’s awesome because it’s footage of Soundgardens show at the Showbox a few weeks back, and it pisses me off because I wasn’t able to get tickets to be there. Listen to Chris Cornell’s voice on this song…if you ever doubted that his ability to sing the older songs, the ones that are in a high register, this video proves that he still has the pipes:
Alllmost Friday! I can’t believe Rehab nearly beat out AIC in the Cockfight tonight. AIC pulled through thank god!
The AIC, Deftones, Mastodon tour will be coming here October 8th at Key Arena. Keep it locked to kisw.com for details on ticket on-sale info.
Thought this was cool!
Jimi Hendrix’s half-sister Janie Hendrix was at the National Museum of the American Indian yesterday to loan a never-before-displayed coat of Jimi’s to the museum for its upcoming exhibition, Up Where We Belong: Native Musicians in Popular Culture. The new show runs from July 1st through next January. Hendrix, whose paternal grandmother was a full-blooded Cherokee, is also featured in the Museum’s current exhibition, IndiVisible: African-Native American Lives in the Americas. –
Gotta scram, bye!

You can complain about smokers, bitch about drug addicts, detest alcoholics or even roll your eyes at the chubbies who ALWAYS seem to be hungry, but according to a new study from the International Center for Medical & Public Agenda (at the University of Maryland), American college students are addicted to mass media and all of the accompanying gadgets. When asked to abstain from using computers, cell phones and all the rest for 24 hours, students literally had the same reactions as drug and alcohol addicts; they were in “withdrawal, frantically craving, very anxious, miserable, jittery and crazy” If you know anyone who plays ‘World of Warcraft’ you know a junkie. Hell, a 17 year old kid in Ohio killed his parents because they wouldn’t let him play Halo. A Russian kid killed his father WITH A SLEDGEHAMMER when he was forbidden from playing computer games and a guy in Italy is demanding that video game addiction be classified as a mental illness after his son stabbed him in the neck with a 15 inch knife after arguing about a video soccer game. I don’t personally get the madness of video games, but I get addiction. I just might stab you myself if you took away my cigarettes. I need my smokes. For some people, a daily dose of porn is all that’s needed to get through the day, while for others that sugary tang of soda is a must, or the bitter kick- in- the- pants that is a cup (or two) of coffee. You know what you need to feel ‘right’ day to day and today we ask you to imagine going ONE day without it: WHAT WOULD BE THE MOST PAINFUL THING FOR YOU TO GIVE UP FOR 24 HOURS?
Like I said, my smokes. Here’s the thing about smoking cigarettes; yea, yea, yea, they’re addicting and they really are the worst habit you can pick up (next to meth, crack, heroin, oxys…) but I find that if I have a pack of smokes, everything else is tolerable. Spoken like a true addict! If you’re having a bad day and need a pick- me- up, nothing like a cigarette. Having a great day? Celebrate with a cigarette. Just had sex? Time for a Smokey treat! Your girl (or guy) has a headache and so there’s no hummina- hummina- myow- myow coming your way? Smoke time. That’s how I operate and 24 hours without would really suck.
Smoking weed… originally I thought that the call would be a load of sh*t, but after talking to the guy, I can say that in all my years and in spite of my associates, THIS guy was the biggest stoner I’ve ever talked to.
KISW
Her anti- depressants… I’m gonna go ahead and take her word for it because if I disagree she just might get all depressed.
Flip- flops (???)
Dr. Pepper and tequila… not as a single drink, but each one individually
Our show… thank you very much, but what do you do on the weekends?
Green Grizzly chew… it’s made with real grizzly bears, you know
Music… music is like pizza- everyone likes something a little different but everyone still likes pizza… and if you don’t, WTF is wrong with your weird ass?!?
Food… fat ass! I have no idea what you look like, just making an off- color assumption because I’m a pr*ck
His kids… described them as ‘morons’, but their HIS morons dammit, and he loves hanging out with them
His car
TV… the dad thing is, most of the time I watch TV I spend the majority of the time channel surfing for something to watch
Electricity… amen. It’s amazing how little you think about electricity (and really, why would you?) but how bad things suck when you don’t have any
Texting… I could go the REST OF MY LIFE without texting and die a happy man
His dog… sad but true. Every time I leave town the thing I miss most is my dog
His cell phone… I once went 13 months WITHOUT a cell phone very intentionally and it was a very peaceful time. Then my boss told me that if I didn’t get a “f**king phone in the next f**king week” I’d be fired.
Maybe you’ve heard, maybe you haven’t, but former President George W. Bush is currently working on is memoirs, where he’s promising candid insight into his decision making process and his life, including his love of nose- candy and booze. In the meantime, his wife Laura is preparing to release her OWN memoirs next month in a book called “Spoken from the Heart”. Sure, she’ll give insight into the political world (from a spouses’ perspective, of course) but what has people talking is that she opens up about the car accident she caused as a teenager that claimed the life of her best friend… a mere 47 years ago. Happy stuff. Meanwhile, no one is terribly surprised that Sandra Bullock has filed from divorce from her Nazi- nailing husband Jesse James, but DID surprise everyone is that she’s in the process of adopting a 3 and a ½ month old baby from New Orleans. As is oh- so- fashionable among rich white people, she’s adopting a black kid. Think the ‘Blind Side’ rubbed off on her? And, in an effort not to feel left out, Jessica Simpson (*sigh*) admitted to Ellen DeGeneres that she doesn’t brush her teeth everyday… in fact she brushes her teeth “about three times a week”. Thank you, Jessica. We all have secrets, skeletons in our closets and truths about us that we’re not quite ready to share, but today we asked you to anyway. IF YOU WERE TO WRITE AN AUTOBIOGRAPHY, WHAT’S THE ONE THING YOU’D COME CLEAN ABOUT OR SHED LIGHT ON?
I’d share my stories with you, but you just have to read the book. Actually, I’d like to REMEMBER some of the things I’ve done that might surprise you… or might not. I always allude to this, but between the ages of 20 and 30, I did, saw and was a part of many, many disturbing things. One day I WILL share, but the sad truth is, you wouldn’t believe about 90% of it. Maybe I’ll write an autobiography called, “How to Routinely F**k Up and Not Care Very Much”.
He was molested as a kid. Pretty heavy stuff and it was our 1st call of the day.
He likes BIG girls
Was having regular sex with his best friend’s mother back when he was a teen
She never graduated college but everyone thinks she has, including her parents, her co- workers and her boss. She completed two of four years in pursuit of a degree in marketing… and has a job (making just under $100,000) IN marketing, proving that she really knows how to market
Helped convict her (now ex) husband and put him away for 25 years. She wasn’t being a bitch, her (ex) husband had shaken their four month old child until it was permanently blinded. WTF?!?
Lost His virginity at 10 years old… well, he didn’t LOSE it, he gave it to his 16 year old neighbor
When she returned from Iraq she rubbed genitalia with some dude and got pregnant. She ALMOST aborted the kid 3 separate times, then decided to have the kid but give him up for adoption. Then she decided to KEEP the kid.
Used to an ‘enforcer’ for a gang… in other words, he used to hurt people.
Was molested by her step parents. It should be pointed out that she had four step mothers and five step fathers and ALL of them (except one) molested her and her sisters.
Double teamed his buddy’s wife. Not cool.
OK, gotta run, bitches.
Until tomorrow, smoke ‘em if you got ‘em and STAY BEAUTIFUL!”
What up blogger? ESPN has been running these one hour movies and they are doing 30 of them to celebrate 30 years on the air. So thats the 30 for 30. They have had some great ones so far. My favorite up to this point was the U, about the Miami college football team in the 80’s and early 90’s. They have had one on A I and other things. They are really good and all the movies are made by film directors. Last night was on Ricky Williams the running back. Now I was always one of those guy’s that belived he left his carrer in the NFL to go get high on pot. Side note I have no issue at all with pot but if your job say’s you can’t then you can’t. This is yet another reason I am behide legaltion of weed and not just de-crimnaillation. Anyhow I will say this after watching the movie on him. I have no idea what goes on in his mind. I don’t think he is a total a**hole but I also don’t think he does some things right. He seems to be a nice guy deep down but his mind just works so differnt then mine does so it is very hard to understand. I will say this he is a differnt guy and I think everyone should watch this movie and see what they think. Run Ricky Run was the name of it and it had my mind running all night.
Double R shared a story of a buddy that called him last night hoping that Double R could help him with a family issue. STP has the opinion that you should never ask someone to get involved with a family issue if they aren’t in the family, as it almost never ends well, and I agree 100% with Steve.
Here’s a simple rule for men (women…if you can apply this to your life, great):
If you need help with anything, go to somebody who’s an expert. We tend not to do this in our lives. You know what, when people are giving you advice because you are looking for help, it’s not going to be as useful as the advice from an expert in that topic!
Men can be pretty stupid sometimes when it comes to getting help because they don’t go and ask the experts in fear of looking stupid! So instead they go find other stupid people to help them solve their issues!
This morning we talked about an old video blog where Double B was having fun on the couch in our office…if you haven’t seen in…check it out:
So it’s an end of an era…Rick’s Nightclub is being shut down! A few of the guys involved with the club are pleading guilty today to charges of racketeering, money laundering, and promoting prostitution. They are making this plea to save them jail time & the feds are going to seize control of the clubs & will close them immediately. Farewell Rick’s. We rated the clubs this morning, and used baseball terms to distinguish the 4 clubs that are being shut down:
Rick’s — The Major Leagues
Honey’s – Triple A (minor league)
Fox’s – Double A
Sugar’s – A recreation softball beer league
While we were talking about this, a lady called in that was once a stripper at Honey’s. “Ecstasy” (I Forgot her real name, but she told us her stage name was Ecstasy) told us that some of the allegations about the owners she never witnessed…mainly the promoting of prostitution at the club. She did tell us that when she would have to work a 6 hour shift, she would owe the club 120 bucks to work there, and there are times that you wouldn’t make that much, and then you would owe back pay. This sounds like the premise to a great reality show!! I suggested the feds hand the club over to us, we keep it as a strip club, also serve chicken wings & ribs, and call it “Boners”!!! Based on this chat about strip clubs, I got this email:
God why are you Soo creepy and gross? I hate when you talk about strippers like that. They are people too… You guys are all disgusting and I hate you. Quit being a bunch of bitches. And also BTW I didn t appreciate when BJ called Ryan Castle a sith yesterday when the show ended.. [JAMeS])
I find this hilarious…if he has issues about our stripper banter…that’s cool…but I love that he was stewing about BJ calling Ryan Castle a “sith” at the end of yesterday’s show!!!!
So we had Dominic Monaghan on this morning. Dominic plays Charlie the heroin addicted rocker on LOST, he is also on FlashForward, and you might remember him as one of the hobbits in the Lord Of the Rings Trilogy. While talking to Dominic, he talked about how while on the set of LOST in Hawaii, he developed a strong relationship with the chameleons on the island. Apparently chameleons are really smart. I asked him based on that…was his favorite GI Joe character was Zartan the chameleon guy. He said he didn’t have GI Joe dolls growing up, but had Star Wars figures & would go to bed with a Hans Solo doll…Harrison Ford was his inspiration behind wanting to be an actor. Things got a little awkward when Double R asked about his relationship with Evangeline Lilly (Kate from LOST)…when asked, Dominic said that is something he doesn’t talk about…which I get, but it sounded like for the rest of the interview he was on edge after that.
This morning we were talking about scary movies becauase Annabelle & Vicky refuse to go to the screening of A Nightmare On Elmstreet. One film that kept coming up was a film called Human Centipede…I never heard of this movie, and based on this trailer…I NEVER want to see this!!!!!! My God!!!
Today’s Video Blog features a strange accessory for the iPOD, and Annabelle was wearing some crazy shoes.
Tool July 15th in Vancover BC…you betcha! The info on the show is up at kisw.com under the concert calendar.
Sit N Spin continues to be a riot with The Mens Room.
Muse lost out to Atreyu tonight in the Cockfight.
As promised….Dave and Chester speaking out!
LINKIN PARK, JANE’S ADDICTION: Speak Out Against Arizona Law(Posted 3:00 AM, 4/27/2010)
Linkin Park frontman Chester Bennington and Jane’s Addiction guitarist Dave Navarro are speaking out against Arizona’s controversial immigration law requiring proof of citizenship at all times.
Bennington, an Arizona native, writes on Twitter, “I am ashamed of my home state, and the Republican Party. The new law is unconstitutional and sends the wrong message to the world… People should not live in fear of the government in this country. The white, right wing, conservatives in AZ are nothing but terrorists!”
On his blog, Navarro writes, “It is alarming as this could potentially set a precedent that would allow further rights to be violated at the will of the police and government. This whole thing has a Diet Nazi Germany undertone built into it. Scary stuff.”
Ok I gotta get some stuff done and find some food, not being able to find a can opener at work deemed it a hungry shift,
