The Eye Of A Woman, ShamWow & Jerry Lewis
We are asking you to go to our web site everyday this week to act as wedding planner and vote on various aspects of our wedding give-away. Today, we asked that you go on and vote for the wedding gown you like the best. Last night I thought I'd check it out. I saw three pictures of the lovely Emily (our bride), but to me, it looked like she was wearing the same gown in all three pictures. So, I mentioned it to Rae, who then walked over to the computer and with 3 seconds pointed out the subtle differences in the 3 DIFFERENT gowns. I guess it just illustrates how women see things differently than men. Women have a better eye (certainly for this sort of thing). Tomorrow, we need you to vote for the bridesmaid's dresses and the tux.
Hope you had a nice weekend. Mine was great. It was a rainy, lazy weekend for me. Here was the highlight of my weekend. You've heard Kristen Nash and I often kidding and joking around about ShamWow, the miracle cloth that daffy guy is always hawking on TV.
Well, despite all the talking we do about it, I never really actually owned a ShamWow. I've had listeners call in to tell me to not buy it because it doesn't work, so I never bought one. Saturday, Rae wanted to go to Bed, Bath & Beyond for something. We walked in the door and there to our left, A WALL OF SHAMWOW!!!!!!!. Thousands and thousands of boxes of ShamWow!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I felt it was fate that we walked into B,B & B right then, la forza del destino. Twenty bucks, how bad can it be? So, finally, I come home with a ShamWow. Guess what? It works. Then again, I think you could get the same results with an old sweatshirt.
By the way, next week, I will have, as a guest on the show, actress Sally Kellerman. Details to follow.

Then again, I think you could get the same results with an old sweatshirt.I hate to keep harping on this reality TV thing, but a couple of related things happened over the last few days worth mentioning. First of all, Clint Black has admitted that his stint on Celebrity Apprentice has been an awful experience. He has been the victim of "creative" editing, all done to make him look like a bad guy and a jerk. Apparently the producers of this waste of network time decided they wanted to make Black look bad. Sure enough, that's what they've succeeded in doing. I've never met Black. I don't know him, but of what I've heard, he sounds like a pretty nice, down-to-earth guy, not at all what these producers are making him out to be. Again, no reality, it's all about what the producers what to do and how THEY want it to come out. If you enjoy watching these shows, that's fine, but if you believe they're real, then you might as well believe in professional wrestling.
Along the same lines, I'm sure by now you heard about the "riot" of wannabe runway models in New York City who were lined up to audition for another stupid so-called reality show, America's Next Top Model". Three models were arrested for disorderly conduct, six suffered injuries after being trampled during the riot, and dozens complained that they lost clothes, purses or shoes in the panic. The police shut down the audition for lack of organization. The models are now demanding another date, saying that they waited all night, and this was their big dream. What a coincidence!! Being crushed by a stampede of super super models has always been MY big dream! A stampede of runway models..........that's like saying a avalanche of balsa wood. But here's point, the skeptical part of me believes that this"riot" was staged. With that many model wannabes gathered in one spot, it wouldn't be hard at all to trigger off a mini-riot, and what greater publicity for the show which apparently pits these girls against each other.
Celebrity birthdays today: Nancy Wilson of the group Heart is 55 today (Is she the blond or the pudgy one?), actor Erik Estrada is 60 today, and one of my all-time favorite comedians, Jerry Lewis is 83 today. Jerry stopped celebrating his birthday years ago when, one time, his hair got too close to his birthday cake and started a grease fire.
By the way, next week, I will have, as a guest on the show, actress Sally Kellerman. Details to follow.
