The Oprah Brouhaha
By Josh Board - November 20, 2009, 11:03 a.m.
So, there's this Eggo waffle shortage. And it comes the same time Oprah Winfrey has decided to end her talk show. Coincidence?! Okay, that was a cheap joke. And not even a funny one. I wanted to start the blog with lyrics from Stew, one of my favorite ...

The Biggest Loser. Is it Shawne Merriman, Levi, or Palin?
By Josh Board - November 19, 2009, 3:57 p.m.
Celebrity news can sometimes be interesting. Sometimes it's boring. But there are a few things that involve people saying one thing about a person, that you can clearly call BS on without knowing all the details. It's funny, because I've watched some of those police shows when cops are ...

300 Times
By Josh Board - November 18, 2009, 2:04 a.m.
There were a few interesting stories I couldn’t decide between blogging on. There was that idiotic, 86-year-old owner of the Tennesse Titans. As his team beat the Bills, he decided to flip off the crowd. And it cost him $250,000. I love the fine. Players have been fined ...

Football Stuff
By Josh Board - November 17, 2009, 2:00 a.m.
It's always fun talking football with the sports fans on Monday and Tuesday. We talked about the idiot coach that went for it on 4th and 2, and basically cost his team the game against the undefeated Colts. There's the coach that told his team not to score ...

Hangin' on the Telephone
By Josh Board - November 16, 2009, 2:42 p.m.
Okay, it’s time for some phone rules to be established, because nobody seems to know how to use them anymore. It’s really odd, if you think about it. With everyone having a cell phone, people should’ve gotten better at it. Yet, the opposite seems to have happened. I was ...

Pain in the Glass
By Josh Board - November 15, 2009, 9:14 p.m.
I saw some great art over the weekend, which made me think of something I did last weekend at Balboa Park. In the Spanish Village they had a collection of glass artists. And the stuff is still on display and for sale, for at least another few weeks. ...

Athletes Gone Wild -- College Soccer, Football, and Tyson Edition
By Josh Board - November 14, 2009, 12:33 p.m.
Mike Tyson was arrested for punching a paparazzi. Apparently the guy followed him into a bathroom. Not a smart move, following a guy into a bathroom that did jail time for rape. And would routinely knock out huge men within seconds. And, we all saw the punch he threw ...

Facebook and Food Fights in School
By Josh Board - November 13, 2009, 10:37 a.m.
I remember being in 8th grade, and sneaking into a movie theatre with my stepbrother to see Fast Times at Ridgemont High. And it's still one of the best teen movies ever made. After seeing that, everyone tried ordering pizza to our classrooms the way Sean Penn did in ...

The Diaper Darling -- Astronauts Gone Wild
By Josh Board - November 12, 2009, 1:36 a.m.
I initially thought I'd write a blog about the possible Aerosmith break-up. It just lends itself to so many possibilities. Would Aerosmith find a singer as ugly as Tyler? Would they go for someone as old? Or would they find a young dude from some Aerosmith tribute band. I ...

Blinded by the White -- Sammy Sosa and Amy Winehouse Get Goofy
By Josh Board - November 11, 2009, 1:33 a.m.
A few celebrities are in the news for changes to their personal appearance. Amy Winehouse finally made it out of rehab, and decided the next best move would be breast implants. I’m guessing she’ll probably get another few tattoos to go with the collection she already has that ...

Weird Police, Weird DUI
By Josh Board - November 10, 2009, 10:06 a.m.
Anyone hear that 911 call last week? The one where an older woman was reporting a drunk driver and the 911 operator asks if she’s following them. She replies, “I am them.” The operator has the great response of “You am them?” I felt like someone should’ve said “I eight ...

Caging Elephants and Catching Trains
By Josh Board - November 9, 2009, 2:19 p.m.
I was super swamped over the weekend. And this caused me to miss an opera some college kids were putting on at Point Loma Nazarene. I’m not much of an opera fan, but one of the kids wanted a write-up and I told them I’d see what I could do. ...

A Few Observations Over the Weekend
By Josh Board - November 8, 2009, 9:56 p.m.
I was driving thru Mission Valley and noticed two Hooter's girls standing on the corner working. By working, I mean, for the restaurant. One had a hoola hoop, but on her arm. Another had a sign. I couldn't read what it said. NOT because I wasn't looking at the ...

The People Celebrities Marry
By Josh Board - November 7, 2009, 11:28 a.m.
I remember a time, well over 10 years ago, when I dated a woman who told me her last boyfriend was a guy that was currently playing power forward/center for the Phoenix Suns. It was a player I liked. The subject had come up over dinner when we started ...

Marketing Geniuses
By Josh Board - November 6, 2009, 1:36 a.m.
I had lunch at Chipolte, and saw a sign at the Baskin @ Robbins right next door. They had a new cone called a “double header”. I thought that was probably to ride the buzz of the World Series. The picture showed the cone. It had a huge top ...

Reality Shows and Rocket Men (I think it's gonna be a long, long time)
By Josh Board - November 5, 2009, 1:29 a.m.
I was thinking about reality show “stars” lately. Not just because my girlfriend and I were Jon and Kate for Halloween, and he continues to do interviews – either saying idiotic things or storming off when he doesn’t like the questions (Nancy Grace grilled him the best. I love her ...

The "How to Get Out of a Traffic Ticket" Blog
By Josh Board - November 4, 2009, 1:40 a.m.
Last month when I wrote about my experience in traffic court – in which I went exactly one month earlier than my court date – I received a nice gift certificate to attend a comedy traffic school for free. As I parked and walked in for my 1:00 p.m. ...

Take Me Out to the Dentist
By Josh Board - November 3, 2009, 1:49 a.m.
My friend Heather told a story about taking the extra candy her kid got trick-or-treating, and how some Halloween fairy visited her child in the night and left her a toy. I think it was My Favorite Pony or something. That’s a great scam. The adult gets some candy ...

The President and Perverts on Halloween
By Josh Board - November 2, 2009, 1:04 a.m.
I completely forgot to contact that hotel in Mission Valley. You know the one that has “Joy” spelled out with the lights on, in various rooms? I was going to suggest they write “Boo” for October. And with the stories that keep coming out about hotels not doing well in ...

Annoying Airline Passengers and Dead Celebs in Commercials
By Josh Board - October 31, 2009, 2:05 p.m.
Southwest Airlines apologized the other day. No, not because their pilots were sleeping on the job and missing their destination. And not because they ran out of peanuts. They should apologize for the on-flight movie being The Proposal, and having enough headsets for everyone. What they apologized for is ...
