Hi Johnny, I hope all is well with ya. John was off today; he was checking his oxidants.
From one of you, the listeners: “Who would have ever thunk that the quality of "reading of copy" would actually go DOWN without John in the mix?”
When JC started (at this frequency), he fought to have a four-hour show. He was offered the chance to get off at nine o’clock. But because the ratings go from 6am until 10am, he chose not to let someone else control his destiny.
Free food tastes better. And traveling on someone else’s tab is really good too.
JC is setting up his generator at his new house. On a related note, the ice storm was one year ago Friday. He asked some general electrician questions which prompted this e-mail from one of you, the listeners: “Listening to you guys talk about electrical service and wiring is like listening to Moe, Larry, and Curly talk about Neuro-Surgery. It ain't rocket science!”
Steven Jackson doesn’t blame me anymore for the Rams loss. It was now the warm-up music’s fault (which I do not provide). So all you “hatas out thurr,” leave me alone.
JC went to Wm. Allendale Brewery the other day. He started to go for the beer and now he goes for the food. He really liked the rye bread. See them in Kirkwood at 105 East Jefferson.
Wiener schnitzel (German for “Viennese cutlet”) is a traditional Viennese dish, consisting of a thin slice of veal coated in breadcrumbs and then fried.
Laurie read off a huge list of prizes that we are giving away one week from today with the 12 Days of Christmas. We start giving away our millions of prizes in less than seven days.
Alaska is the most suicidal state.
JC thinks that MADD should leave Tony LaRussa alone; he has been punished enough. He also thinks that the tape from the arrest shouldn’t have been released.
Here’s the dumbest dog in the world eating his bone.
JC “apologized” to Janis Murray. Actually, he had John Cleese apologize for him.
Laurie’s first boyfriend broke up with her around Christmas & her birthday three years in a row – then she DtMFA (Dumped the Mo-Fo already).
I have “matchmade” three couples. Congratulations to Mike & Karen, Tom & Margaret and a third mystery couple who wishes not to be named.
