I woke this morning to a veritable tsunami of responses to my latest movie and restaurant reviews. It still amazes me there are so many girly-men readers who prefer to make their comments via email. Come on! Sign up! Let the world in on the way your mind works!

Today I plan to watch a LOT of television. I finally broke down and bought a surround-sound system to go with my HDTV and by patiently following the install directions, having an emotional break-down, consulting (and verbally abusing) my friend, Mike, got it totally installed by midnight. It sounds spectacular. If you already have one, what else is new? To test out the total package I watched the last hour of October Sky...a feel-good Jake Gylenhall (sic) movie from a few years ago. I cried like a baby. I know BLSett would rather go surfing on an ocean of King Kong Bundy's leotard chowder than watch that movie, but along with Field Of Dreams and Hearts & Souls, I am guaranteed copious tears before they end.

So, back to the email. Someone wrote me complaining because I have written in My Story so seldomly, lately, and seem to be directing all my efforts to this blog. Referencing the exchanges about Teabags and Tossed Salad she wrote that my blog is 'pretty sophomoric'. That sorta sums up my life. I can handle any sort of Donkey Punch that comes my way. Remember, I was told by a 'consultant' in San Francisco that my show was inane. Later, my morning show was called ...puerile. Some asshole in Buffalo turned me down for a job because he said I had a speech impediment. Thath ridulouth! Actually, he said I stuttered.

So, this is my blog and knowing that I am inane, sophomoric, and p-p-p-puerile doesn't faze me because I am tough. Hey....I punched a nun!

    ....at least you didn't say the word 'poopypants' in your blogging...hey, I said 'poopypants in your blogging'....what do you expect from someone, at an early age, called 'boogey check' 15 minutes before it began (ring, ring, ring, ring) just to say a stupid joke? Did you hear the one about two deejays who walked into a bar? You think the second one would've ducked. Reg

    Never heard of Montanitas...come to think of it during the 113 years I worked in the Twin Cities the only 'Mexican' restaurant I ate at was Chiquito's...or some phony Mexican place on LaSalle in downtown. I think. A real Mexican would spit on it. And of course, the previously mentioned..Zapata's. I worked on the 4th too. I worked my way through a plate full of London broil and potato salad.

    I think Landecker started Boogey Check in Chicago and then Jeff Robbins ripped it off for U100 and I stole it to KSTP. Later, we adapted it at FM104 in California to a heavily censored joke thing. Whatever..it was nuts but fun. I'll have to write more about it on My Story. Nice to hear from both Axman and Reg---
