Tuesday Word Game 4/1

It's Tuesday Word game time here at YJKOBT !! That special time of the week when we take a current news story and add our own twist on it. Rumor has it that Mt. Cat tried to steal my peaches last week. Just to let you know he blamed it on my "fans." Well shame on Ya'll ;-) Well I am back this week and ready to roll with this sickening article. Give it a read below (I wish it was an April Fools Joke)

BELLEVUE, Ohio -- Police said an Ohio man has been arrested for allegedly having sex with a picnic table.
Police arrested Arthur Price Jr. after an anonymous tipster dropped off three DVDs that reportedly showed Price in the act.
According to NBC Toledo, Ohio, affiliate WNWO-TV, the videos show Price tilting the metal round picnic table on its side and then laying up against it to have sexual intercourse with the table. Afterward, he can then be seen cleaning the table and the deck.

During questioning, he reportedly admitted to having sex with the table. Police said he also admitted to ________________________ .

YIKES I have no idea where this guy got his fetish but I am wondering why it took the neighbors 3 times of filming him to turn him in. - Leave a comment with something else this pervert may have admitted to doing and the funniest wins a peach. Enter as often as you wish.

Dancing with the Stars--Week 3


I have to say, there was not really anything in last night's dancing to get me excited. This is extremely disappointing because the Jive is one of my favorite dances. I love the fast pace, kicks and flicks and sassy outfits. Plus, it is the only truly American dance that they do on the show. All of the other dances have European or Latin origins.

My favorite of the night, which was not the judges favorite, was Shannon Elizabeth's jive. She and Derek have a great chemistry and you could tell that the choreography was really hard. It was one of the funniest moments of the night when they had to sit on the floor to get the judges comments because they were so tired! Shannon is very sweet and lovable, I hope she goes a long way.

The judges and I really disagreed last night. They gave the highest marks to Priscilla and Kristi. Now, you know I am a big fan of Kristi and will probably choose her to win but I didn't feel her routine had anything special. It felt emotionless. In fact, many of the dancers had that problem. That's probably why I wasn't excited about any of them. I was really disappointed in Marissa's jive and Jason's as well. They all seemed a little too careful, which comes across as boring. I think the schedule of learning the dances, along with the Stars other committments is starting to take its toll. This is when the weak get separated from the herd.

My pick for elimination tonight is Adam Carolla. Even though he didn't get the absolute lowest score, I think his mouth is going to keep him from going on. It seems like he just doesn't know when to shut-up! He even offended his partner last night.

Start making your predictions for the finale. I will have a contest board up soon. In the meantime...


Happy dancing!

This is so wrong

This is from Entertainmentweekly.com

Pacino to star in new sitcom

Legendary movie icon Al Pacino will make the jump to prime-time television this fall on NBC. From the producers of Will & Grace, he will star in his first sitcom called ‘The Goddad’.

Pacino will play Paulie Morrello, a middle aged man who is forced to take care of his 9 year old neice when her parents die in a tragic car accident. Morrello has been a lifetime bachelor and womanizer who now must learn to care for others and stop his selfish ways.

Pacino is looking forward to the change. ‘It is a bittersweet show’, he says. ‘This will be a comedy but will also have a message for the whole family to enjoy. The stories will have morals to it.’ When asked how his movie fans will react to his new career path, he is very candid. ‘I’m getting old!’ Pacino laughs. ‘I now want to settle down and do something a little more consistent and lighthearted’. The sitcom will also star Kathy Najimy who will play the wise cracking aunt.

'The Goddad’ will air this fall on Thursday nights at 9:30PM following ‘My Name is Earl’.


*******

Pacino does not need money this bad, does he??? I do not think this show will last long. Unbelievable and sad. How can he disgrace the legend of the Godfather movies with this crap!?!? Marlon Brando must be rolling over in his grave!

Baseball is so beautiful I could just cry...

Last night the Braves and Nationals opening game was on ESPN. While I was watching the game, a sense of calm trickled through my body. I was suddenly at peace. Yes baseball is back. There are no wars. There is no recession. There are no more Hollywood lollipops in rehab. All is now good again. Right with the world.

Innocence. Purity. Utopian.

The pace of baseball relaxes me. I could smell the green grass through the television set. And I could taste the hot dogs and peanuts. It was as if I have a scratch and sniff TV these feelings are so vivid in my mind.

Yes, I know, the players are obscenely over paid. Also, they probably all take illegal or borderline illegal pituitary Flintstone-like vitamins. But my love affair with baseball is still aflame and has yet to flicker.

My New York Yankees open up this afternoon at Yankee Stadium. The best arena mankind has ever known since the Roman Coliseum. Only with better concessions. I am salivating.

The planets are aligned. The Dow is up. And my beer stein has been filled. Play ball.

I'm back and weekly poll

Wheew... Back from vacation and I missed you guys. It seems like you all had a fun time without me though. Thanks to my buddy the Mt. Cat and for holding down the fort while I was away. We had a great trip and I will tell all about it and share some pictures later but first things first. Last week in the poll it seems that your favorite Seattle grunge band was Pearl Jam as they pulled in a full 50% of the vote. This week we move back to sports and the upcoming NCAA basketball Final Four. First time in history that all four #1 seeds advanced to the final four so this weeks poll is who will win?

-Doc

p.s. - I hope to get caught up on reading you guys' blogs by the end of the week. I can't wait to see what I missed.

P-Did-It

Ok Christine, YOU DID IT. I decided that your comment, P-Did-It, was the funniest for most obscure hip-hopper. A nice little play on words on Puffy's old gun charge. Nicely done sis.

You win a Golden Lion Award!

Hope you all had a great weekend.

Have a good weekend.

Dancing With the Stars-Week 2


Greetings DTWS Fans! I know the dances have been done and the eliminations revealed but I still felt the need to post my thoughts on this week's dances. I promise next week will be back to the regular schedule of Tu morning. Thanks for putting up with my laziness while I was on vacation!

My first observation of the night was that Bruno has PMS. He was not happy with virtually anything. Even when he did give a nice review, his face was still grumpy. Given that there was a full moon this past weekend which resulted in my husband having PMS also, I am hoping Bruno will be more pleasant next week.


Of the guys, I was blown away by Jason Taylor's Mambo. He sure showed that he can shake it and move very fluidly. His score certainly reflected that. My favorite for this week is still Kristi Yamaguchi. She proved once again, that she is a perfectionist and can even work hard to come out of her shell for the mambo. It was saucy and hot!

Since we know that Penn and Monica were the ones who were eliminated I can say that it did not surprise me. Monica's mambo was painfully slow and she was really stiff. The judges kept saying that she looked out of her comfort zone, which I'm sure she was. She just doesn't have the personality to put everything out there for America to see. Dance is much more personal than tennis. I felt that Penn's Quickstep was not quick at all. It seemed like his feet did not even move! I don't care if they are the size of ocean liners. His footwork was atrocious. I also didn't like that he is very defensive when talked to the judges. I'm sure it's very hard to be criticized but he did not accept it gracefully.

I felt the most improved from last week were Marissa and Cristian. If they continue to work hard, I think they could both stay around for a while yet. Marissa has an enthusiam that is contagious and will add to her dance if she does the steps well.

I am looking forward to seeing what next week brings. Let me know what you're thoughts were on various dancers and I'll chime in with more. Happy Dancing!
