According to my mathematics (I know, I know – I’m not very good with the numbers thing) at the end of the 2007 MLB season JC has watched a grand total of 1,343 days of baseball (881 Cubs + 462 Cards) or 3 Years, 8 Months, & 4 Days. I can & will get to my methodology one day – but not today.
Dave had a good time at Jimmy Buffett last night. JC & I did not have a good time when we saw The Cars in 1987. (We didn’t go together, but we both hated the show.)

Apparently, an entire subculture of balloon fetishes exists. They call themselves “looners.” Some of them like to see balloons grow as they're inflated, while others get turned on when a balloon pops. Some of these people are so hardcore, just the color, feel or even smell of a balloon gets them excited.
The new issue of People magazine has a list of the richest teen celebrities. Not surprisingly, Miley Cyrus tops it. She is expected to be worth $1 billion by the end of the year. Miley is 15 by the way, & already richer than her dad, Billy Ray. But she can't have her money until she's 18. Her mom says most of it is invested. Also making the list are Miley's buddies, the Jonas Brothers. They earn about $12 million a year.
Little Miss Sunshine star Abigail Breslin (who technically isn't even a teenager since she just turned 12) makes $2 million a movie. Dakota Fanning rules at the box office, though. She can get up to $4 million for a big-studio movie.
Some teens are raking it in on the small screen. Mark Indelicato, 13, earns $460,000 per season on "Ugly Betty". His parents give him 50 bucks a week. Fourteen-year-old Angus T. Jones of "Two and a Half Men" & 15-year-old Tyler James Williams of "Everybody Hates Chris" both make $1.2 million a season.
According to the Daily Mail in the U.K., STD rates for people who are over the age of 45 are skyrocketing. Since 2002, the number of people between the ages of 45 & 64 with genital herpes is up by 13% & for people 65 and older, it's up by 10%. The number of gonorrhea cases in people 65 & older is up by 11% & genital warts cases for the same age group are up by 17%. Chlamydia is up by 51% for people between the ages of 45 & 64 & for those 65 and older, it's up by 31%. Syphilis cases for people between the ages of 45 & 64 are up by 139% & for people 65 and over, it's up by 208%.
According to researchers, more people are getting divorced, & that means there are more people of a certain age on the dating scene who are sexually active with multiple partners.
Since many older daters think that only young people get STDs, they don't use protection, & that leaves them vulnerable to contracting something.
We are gonna have Tiger Woods live with us on May 12th. We asked you, the listener, what question we should ask Tiger. Stay tuned to see if your question made it on the air.
The JoY was "Achy Breaky Song" by "Weird Al” Yankovic (featuring a mention of the artist opening Chaifitz Arena tonight.) The 3fA featured Van Halen (in concert Saturday at Scottrade Center – maybe). The Vault was “Harry’s Hands” by Dennis DeYoung.
