In this week’s STP-CAST, we spoke with Dexter Holland, the front man of The Offspring. The Offspring have a new CD out now called "Days Go By", and they will be at Pain In The Grass on September 29th at the White River Amphitheater...tickets are on sale today at 10 AM through Ticketmaster. The CD is really good…there are some songs that bring you back to the old school Offspring sound…like stuff off their CD Smash. That CD brings me back to being a teen, on Christmas morning opening up my gifts and that was one of the gifts that Santa got me…the song that blew me and most of my friends away way this one of course!
Some of the songs on the new CD have a different vibe, and I am digging em…like the song we are playing on KISW, Days Go By, it has a Foo Fighters vibe to it:
This is my fave off the CD…yes it’s ridiculous and over the top pop…but it’s a fun listen and the Buh Buh Bumping In My Trunk part is forever stuck in my head:
You can listen to our interview with Dexter of The Offspring on the STP-CAST here:
During the interview Dexter talked about one of the craziest things he has seen in the 28 years of being in The Offspring...it happened in Portland when a guy set himself on fire while they were playing. He soon put himself out, and the band never stopped playing! Hilarious. I could be wrong, but I’m guessing that guy wasn’t sober! Based on Dexter’s story of watching a guy set himself on fire while playing a concert...what is the craziest thing you have seen at a concert? Here are the texts we got:
I was totally surprised by the amount of pot at an Arlo Guthrie concert. Kirk.
i was at the newest rammstein concert at the tacoma dome and teil the main singer wears huge metal angel wings that shoot fire blew my mind
A group of three Asian girls drop trou and started peeing on the field at a Blondie concert during Bumbershoot
My first Korn concert when I was about 11, guy whipped out a knife in the mosh pit. Causes a massive stampede in the crowd. I also like the guy who crowd surfs in his wheel chair. Rock on
Craziest thing I've seen at a concert was at the Mayhem Festival 2 years ago. I got hit in the head with a wheelchair while Hatebreed was playing, looked up and realized there was still a guy in that wheelchair crowd surfing!!
Metallica concert~~Woman dropped her pants, had a shaved coochie with a swastika tattooed on it!!
I watched an 8 year old kid get thrown across the venue while crowd surfing. He was freaking out! –dubba
I was at the show show when dime bag Darrell was shot.. Never Seen anything like that before. It's hard to make that image go away
My boyfriend proposed to me at an avenge sevenfold concert. On stage. I said no
.
I was at a Metallica concert when someone hit Jason Newsted with a beer bottle. The band left the stage for 10 minutes and the crowd beat the crap out of the guy before he was thrown out. They returned to the stage and finished the set. –Bjorn
Saw nickelback at the gorge a fight broke out and a man bite another mans finger off
The craziest thing I have seen at a concert was a guy in a wheel chair crowd surfing at an offspring concert when they played at bumbershoot
I saw a guy eat a twinkie out of a man's rear end at a goldfinger concert,Steve, u remember that (STP sidenote: yes I do…it was a dude named alan that did it…one of the funniest things I have ever seen)
Cory Taylor let him on stage and gave the wheelchair guy a cold beer and he watched the rest of the show from the stage.
Today's Video Blog features me getting busted for watching a funny video my wife sent me of our pup Lulu.
Last night my wife and I watched the movie 21 Jump Street with Jonah Hill & Channing Tatum…they are in the movie, we didn’t actually watch it with them…although that would have been cool if they were sitting on the couch with us as we watched it. I have to say I was very skeptical of this movie as typically movie version of old TV shows don’t turn out so well…but this one is an exception. I mean it when I say that this is the funniest movie I have seen in a while…there are non-stop laugh out loud (or LOL as you kids say) moments. Plus there is a cameo in this movie that will blow your mind!
A new study by Yahoo says that the average person spends ONE FULL YEAR of their life looking for lost or misplaced items in their home. They also found that 25% of people with two-car garages can't fit one or both cars in the garage because it's filled with stuff. If you clean your clutter, it cuts down housework by 40%.
So the average person spends a year of their life looking for lost items…what have you lost that you wish you could get back? Here are the texts we got:
I once had a REVENGE of the jedi poster before the became return of the jedi from 1983. Scotty from kent. Live long and prosper.
I bought a tiny 16 GB USB flash drive, and I was really excited by how small it was. Well a month later I lost it and have not found it since!
Wish I could find my camara with my sons pictures! And I always loose the remote! But found it yesterday in my boyfriends car! We have NO idea how it got there!
i lost a expensive ipod touch at my best friends house...nearly spent a year of my life allready looking for that, damn clutter at his house lost it not me!
I lost a $600 set of kitchen knives. No idea where they are now, but I moved twice in 2009 and they didn't reach Seattle. –Bjorn
Wish i could get back my DVD case I lost. Had probably $1200 of movies and games in it.
I’m sure some stuck up people will be “alarmed” by this video, but I think it’s hilarious…hands down the best hockey “fight” ever!
I love that the little guy is the one that dropped the gloves! I also love that they are on the same team…get em’ Mazza!!!!
If you're on a trip and sharing a room with family, friends, or a coworker . . . and you want to have VACATION SEX . . . where do you go? A new survey asked people the best places to improvise sex on a vacation. And the six most popular answers were . . .
--A sauna.
--The balcony.
--The fire exit stairwell.
--In or near the pool.
--The hallway.
--The elevator.
Based on this story of improvising sex while on vacation…when you were on vacation, where did you “get it on”? Here are the texts we got:
Banged my ex on stevens pass. It was awsome. In a tree patch off of the brooks run. Cold as hell
Pool in a major condo in maui at night
On the beach in Hawaii
Pulled off at a light house on the oregon coast on our way to newport.
Can't go to the room?? Have sex in the car!!! -â-â brittni from Mukilteo
My wife and i used the hotel stairwell once for action when on a business trip
Got 3 kids. Its always in the bathroom with the door locked.
In the middle of Moses Lake on a Seadoo ;)
Went to jamaica and broken to a waterpark at 3 am and had sex in a water slide
Today's video blog started off with me trying to show BJ something...but his water got in the way of that!
Sometimes we get the most random text messages at 7-7-9-9-9…today as I came back in the studio to play Beat The Producer…this was the first text that popped up, and completely distracted me:
Does STP moisturize his feet?
I don’t even know what to make of it? Why would someone even want to know anything about my feet? The answer is no, as they are naturally soft and well maintained, but I just don’t get it. Then I notriced some of the other texts from that same #:
Does BJ verbally abuse his junk?
Is the Rev banned from farting around open flame at the office?
Cheese is awesome!!!
Hmmmm…Unlimited Texting plans are pretty awesome huh? Although I agree…Cheese is awesome, and chances are that Bj yells at his ding-a-ling from time to time. But that’s just a guess on my part.
I am an awful typer….I am a 2 finger hunt and peck kind of typer, and as I type this my right pointer finger is hurting…it’s brusied from how I attack the keyboard.
During Beat The Produycer, the Rev had a question that was funny…I guess in Japan, they don’t call Jersey Shore that name in Japanese…when translated, it says: “Macaroni Rascals.” I’m sorry that is beyond hilarious! I’d watch the show if it was called that…ok, I wouldn’t, as the show is a pile…but I would cringe a lot less when the title is uttered out of someone’s mouth if it was "Macaroni Rascals".
A new survey asked men and women to name the things they CAN'T STAND about each other. Here are the top five lists for both.
What Men Hate About Women.
1. Saying "I'm fine" when they're clearly not.
2. Talking too much.
3. Constantly asking what men are thinking.
4. Winning fights by crying.
5. Never saying sorry, even when they're wrong.
What Women Hate About Men.
1. Not listening properly.
2. Not putting the toilet seat down.
3. Leaving nail clippings and beard shavings wherever they fall.
4. Having friends they don't like.
5. Hogging the TV remote.
Based on this...what do you hate about the opposite sex? Here are some of the texts:
I hate hearing from women that they can't get along with other women. You'd swear chicks don't have anything but guy friends
I hate it when there is something wrong but she refuses to talk about it and expects prying and begging from you before she'll say a damn word
Drives me nuts when we have to start talking when im going to sleep
Thing I hate about women is the constent "where are you going"
STP hates when Awesome yells at him when she catches lucy and steve with a jar of peanut butter
I hate it when men wear cheap suits and think they look good. Get an effing clue.
I hate being judged by my girlfriend for the actions of other men.
I hate it when your girl thinks you wanna bang any and every girl you see and talk to, like you're one big hormone
I hate that men think we are obligated to give them sex cause they have morning wood. Im sleeping jerk!
I hate how women drive.
Yesterday we talked about a survey that was done by a corporate marketing company called Citrix on office life . . .In the survey, they learned that Men say the worst thing about being in an office is getting roped into BABY SHOWERS. Team-building activities are second-worst. Women say the worst thing are costume contests . . . staff photos are second-worst.
Based on the study about the worst things about working in an office...what do you consider the worst and what do you consider the best thing about working at your job? Here are the texts we got:
The worst thing about working in an office for me, was a toss up between working with complete idiots and when one person would get sick everyone did. I am retired now thankfuly. ;{
I work at a daycare, so the worst is diapers, especially when their sick.
Pretty sure my boss is a for real crack head. It sucks.
The best is being able to just do my work and listen to KISW on my phone all day. The worst is all the stupid small talk people want to do. I don't care about your baby your dog or your boyfriend. I care about my paycheck and what I'm doing this weekend where coworkers aren't invited. –Bjorn
My fiancee works for microsoft. She says all the free games she could ever want but no time to play any of them.
I'm a boat detailer. Best thing about my job, days like today, worst? Days like yesterday.
Worst thing is there are no females. The best thing is that there are no females
Best part of my job is I can wear headphones. Worst part is I can still hear my coworkers bitching through my blasting music. –Kramer
I'm active duty Navy. The only female in my office (12 total in my office). There is NO DRAMA! That's the best thing. A drama free work center. The thing I don't like is that those same drama free guys tend to get nervous around me for the harassment fears. Too many of them have made comments before in their previous work centers and gotten in trouble cuz of BLD!
Worst part: micromanaging boss. Best part: employee pot lucks. We've got employees from all over the world and the food rocks!
Worst thing about my job: no cute girls. Best thing? Free beer on Fridays
Huge thanks to Elijah Wood for joining us! Elijah stars in a strange yet hilarious show on FX called Wilfred that we love. This is a tough show to explain if you haven’t watched it. In a nutshell…Elijah stars as a guy that tried to kill himself, he fails at it, his neighbor knocks on his door and asks him to watch her dog, Wilfred…but Elijah’s character doesn’t see a dog, he sees a grown Australian man in a dog outfit. Wilfred and him become buds, and throughout the season it seems like Wilfred is just being a douche and putting him in effed up situations…but somehow these situations turn out to be life lessons.
The first season is On Demand, might I suggest watching the episode with Ed Helms in it…I think it was the 4th episode. It involves Ed, Wilfred, and Peanut Butter. I will leave it at that…it’s hilarious and wrong!
The new season starts this Thursday at 10 PM on FX…here is a trailer for the show:
This morning we chatted about this study that a corporate marketing company called Citrix just put out on office life. Basically it illustrates how much better it is to work from home. Here are five random facts from their survey . . .
1. 32% of people who work at an office say they'd give up their lunch breaks to work from home. 20% would give up coffee. I call BS…you are working from home…no one will know. Plus you can stuff your face all day while working, you don’t need an actual “break.”
2. Men say the worst thing about being in an office is getting roped into BABY SHOWERS. Team-building activities are second-worst. Women say the worst thing are costume contests . . . staff photos are second-worst. Our team building activities are great…if you consider doing shots with Miles & Thrill “team building”.
3. 49% of people say they work with someone who's a "know-it-all," 44% work with someone who constantly complains, and 40% work with someone who constantly gossips.
4. 18% of people have snuck out of the office in the middle of the day to exercise. 12% have snuck out to nap. I nap right there at my desk…my boss will take pix and goof on me, he doesn’t care.
5. 49% of people who work from home say they're most likely to wear jeans and a t-shirt. 25% wear pajamas . . . 14% wear workout clothes . . . and 7% just wear either UNDERWEAR or go TOTALLY NUDE.
According to a new study out of Harvard, when someone on Facebook gives your post a "Like," it feels just as good to your brain as HAVING SEX…I call total BS on this, but it is hilarious. That is what we have become huh? Likes are as good as sex? I’m sorry…nothing is as good as sex. Only sex is as good as sex! I did put it to a test though…
That’s dirty…in less than 20 minutes of posting this…I have had 50 sex-like experiences. Most of them are dudes though, so I don’t know what to think of that.
So yesterday in my blog I talked about how I conquered my fear of Roller Coasters while in Orlando at Universal Studios and Island Of Adventure. Not only did I rid myself of “Coasterphobia”, I am now a huge fan of them and can’t wait to go on vacation in August to go to Disneyland, Universal, California Adventure etc. After sharing this, I got a great topic idea from Nic:
Steve, you mentioned your new found love of roller coasters and it got me thinking about a topic for the show: What have you just recently discovered later in life that you used to hate/fear, but you love it now? Or when have you conquered a fear?
Here are the texts we received:
I used to be scared crapless of heights now I skydive starting last summer down in Shelton. Jackie from Tacoma
I used to HATE clowns and i would always find something to beat them with for self defense. Finally, on my 15th birthday, my friend showed up as a clown and that actually made me feel better about other clowns.
I used to be extremely afraid of heights till last summer my brother talked me into going sky diving! Ive been 3 times since then
Hated sushi or raw fish but the wife got me to try it and now I always want to eat it RED
I was terrified of heights, then I did the extreme scream at the puyallup fair, Now I can finally go to the top of the space needle!
Beer.. I know it's shameful. I used to hate it. Now I love it!- Elise in Seattle
I was afraid of hookers and blow. But now I love them both
I use to fear public speaking... but now I love it thanks to the university of washington. Going back to college as an adult can be scary and with that fear it can be nerve racking...but thats to my program HIHIM I got over my fear & recently graduated. Stacey
Used to be terrified of all dogs. Then I got one, went to dog parks now I'm looking at going to dog training school. Love dogs... not like steve Sky
Comics. I hated them as a kid, never understood them. However, over the past two
So now it’s been over an hour…and I am still getting “liked”!!!
We are back from a week off for a work convention in Miami! Since we were heading that way, BJ and I decided to turn it into a longer stay…as we went to Orlando with our wives to check out Universal Studios, and Island Of Adventure…which features the new Harry Potter attraction. Wow…now that was a blast! Look at BJ and I…we are 2 happy campers at Island Of Adventure:
I have to say…I am not even a fan of harry Potter…never read the books or watched the movies, but I was blown away by how cool it looked at Island of Adventure…check out the view:
Here is the actual desk from the movie…
Here is some talking hat that I guess is important to the movie…when I showed this to a radio guy, he freaked out…he said that this isn’t just some talking hat…this is a huge part of the movies storyline…
I have to say…the Harry Potter ride is AWESOME!!! I was having a blast on that ride…if you have rode the Spiderman ride you will absolutely love this as it goes one step further with how this is made. While there I did conquer a fear….I went on a roller coaster. My wife loves roller coasters, and I knew that would suck if she didn’t have someone go on a roller coaster with her so I went on the Dueling Dragons roller coaster, and I rode it like a wimp! I closed my eyes through most of it…I have been terrified of roller coasters since I was a kid. After we got through it…I knew she wanted to go on more rides…especially when we walked by The Hulk ride. So I channeled my inner Bert the Conquerer and said I will go on another one…and man was I glad I did…this time I kept my eyes open & realized something that most kids and adults realized at a young age…Roller Coasters are Effing Awesome! Here is the Hulk…
Later on while at universal Studios…we rode the Rock-It – Roller Coaster…even though I became a new found coaster enthusiast…this one freaked me out….
But I got in lione and rode it…and this one was cool…you could pick what song you loisten to as they had speakers by your ear…so both of us went with Limp Bizkit’s Rollin…which honestly added a lot to the ride…this one was so good that I went on it again. I am now addicted to Roller Coasters…yes, I am 37…I don’t care!!! I had so much fun at Universal and Island Of Adventure…some of my other faves included the Despicable Me ride, Men In Black, The Simpsons, and Twister! They were all a blast…hell…my wife and I are planning on going to California soon so we can check out the new Transformers ride at Universal…as well as all of the other rides.
After a great time in Orlando, we went to Miami for our work convention…a morning radio convention. We got there a couple days early to enjoy the beach…and how about this was the view from our hotel:
The conference was tough, as you can clearly see…
While there…we enjoyed some of the fine dining in Miami…we went to one Sushi place that had the strangest bathroom…it was like a funhouse mirror maze…plus after a few drinks, I made a fool of myself…Check out this picture:
I tried using the one on the right...not realizing that is just a reflection of the left...ran into the mirror thinking it was another guy. I wound up cutting myself off.
Now how was the morning radio convention you ask? Well...here is a great example of how things roll at a radio convention...I know you want to stare at the random chick in a bikini by the podium, but there is something hilarious on the power point presentation behind her:
Oddest thing happened. While checking into curbside checking, something I never do (and will never do again), the guy put the sticker thing on my luggage and said “I will take care of your luggage for you, sir”. I told him thanks, and after paying…I was walking away when he said…”SIR!...I will take care of your luggage”. Oh…I get it…you want a tip. Well this put me in an awkward situation, as I didn’t think he deserved a tip for doing his job. Understand there was a conveyer belt thingy right there, so it’s not like he had to car my luggage…hell, even if he did…the thing has this shocking invention called “wheels”. But my dilemma was this…if I don’t tip him…who knows what he would do to my luggage…would it even make it to Miami? Would he go through it? Look, I hate to assume the worst, but I have read reports of employees taking things from passenger’s luggage. So I gave him a 10 spot, and then for that entire flight I was questioning if that was enough…should I have tipped more since he was “taking care” of my wife’s luggage as well. This really pissed me off. He didn’t deserve a tip…he did nothing out of the ordinary for me, he didn’t go above and beyond, hell…he was miserable while doing it. Plus…he did nothing different than what the people inside do…hell he did even less…at least they print your boarding pass if you need them to. Yet we don’t tip them do we? As you can tell…this got under my skin, and I am all about tipping generously. For instance I gave the waitress at the Universal Studios Irish pub a 20 dollar tip on a 40 dollar meal because re recognized my wife is a vegan and brought her extra vegetables for her salad since there was no fish or chicken for substance in the salad. I thought that was a cool thing that she did…she went above and beyond. We wound up getting a few texts about this…
Same thing happened to me! It didn't register with me, and he got pissed and SLAMMED my one suitcase down on the belt. There went any chance of a tip, not only that I already payed for the luggage.
This is kenny in graham and dude the same thing happened to my wife and i in orlando last year forgot to tip the guy and we saw the guy grab both our bags and chucked em super hard in the air and they slammed on the ground. I was sooo pissed i wanted to fight the bastard!!!! F orlando airport they can SUCK it!!!!!!!
I work for an airline company, curbside are not even supposed to take tips!!
This led to a fun topic where we asked the Rock-A-Holics to finish this sentence... "I can't believe I had to tip someone for ______". Or....have you ever had a job that you felt that you should be tipped, but wasn't? What did you do? Here are the texts we received:
Tipped my hair stylist after a bad hair cut because I just wanted to get out if there and fix it. I was afraid of letting her fix it.
The guys that dry your car at the car wash need tips. When you hand dry 400 cars in a day for minimum wage it sucks. - jellosea
Hey guys, I used to be a delivery driver for a sandwich shop in Redmond. We used to get orders from a company all the time. Well, a couple times a week one focus group there would order 25 sandwich lunch boxes. Every single time they would give me a 100$ bill and say keep the change.... The tab was always 99.50$... Cheap asses!! Then, other times I would drop off one or two sandwiches and get upwards of a 20$ tip!
My wife and mom gave me crap for not tipping at a Chinese buffet. She just showed us to our seat nothing more.
I cant believe I have to tip at any 'restaurant' that offers no more service than fast food
There have been many many times as a barista i would make 1-5 drinks n get tipped 25cents or nothing =/ I then close the window on them or maybe forget their espresso shots next time ;-) <3 rock girl Amanda
I am an exterminator. I go into other peoples houses crawlspaces and attics everyday and pull out the most gruesome things sometimes. I also treat there houses for a variety of other pests. I'm not saying I should get tiped every time I do a service, but every time I do something perticularly disgusting would be nice.
Last week the Miami Heat won the NBA championship, and after the big win…the team wound up partying at the hotel next to ours in Miami Beach. James and the rest of the world champion Miami Heat hit up the L-I-V nightclub at the Fountainebleau Hotel ... where LeBron was drinking out of a 15-liter bottle of Ace of Spades champagne ... which usually runs around $75,000. Sources at the club say that LeBron grabbed the mic ... and rapped along with the music all night long ... while a bunch of his teammates puffed away on cigars.
Based on the fact that LeBron James spent 75,000 dollars on a bottle of champagne…whether it be for a celebratory reason or not…what is the most ridiculous purchase you have made? Here are the texts we received:
I once had to spend $10 for 1 condom from my roommate. Store was to far away to walk and I was in need. But I got my revenge for that. Jason
1800 for 2 tickets to van halen got screwded theu a brokerage sat next to someone who paid 250
A good friend bought a 2010 BMW M5 for $82,000, while drunk, to celebrate his new job. He sold it less than a month latter, said he didnt like it.
I bought four shots of gran patron on my girlfriends bday when the bill came it was $112 which explains why the waiter was shakin nervously while bringin them to our table it was good tho
Had a 1200 bar tab at Hooters in peurto rico partying with some air force specter pilots

Today's Video blog features our interns...hard at work...maybe I should tip them!
This could be the story of the day. Pheonix Jones…Seattle’s real life super hero, was at a school on Wednesday and a kid asked if he could punch him in the stomach, and when he did he realized that phoenix has abs of steel and broke the kids finger! Phoenix was telling the kids about his uniform and it's rubberized and armored and bulletproof, and when a kid asks to punch him, Phoenix says, “OK, give me all you got...give me your best punch, but wait, but don't do it too hard, you might get hurt." This 11 year old, Noah, did it and ended up with a fractured finger…and the mom had this to say: "The thing I want to get across is I don't think any grown man superhero should ask a kid to punch him." Hahaha! Best quote ever! Rex Velvet, Phoenix’s villain (yes, villiam) go on Twitter yesterday, retweeting jokes – like this one: "Q. Why did @ThePhoenixJones break a kids finger? A. Because he left his pepper spray in the car." Velvet also asked to be the first person to sign your cast. I’m thinking if someone from out of town reads this story, they must think that Seattle is the most insane city in all of the U.S.
Sunday is Father’s Day, so if you are scrambling to get Dad a gift, we can help you on what NOT to get. We found a list Complex.com, of lame presents to avoid:
7. Any T-Shirt with the Word "Dad" on It. He’d almost definitely prefer a T-shirt with NOTHING on it.
6. A "Hot Sauce of the Month Club" Membership ANY monthly membership like that is lame, because it SEEMS thoughtful, but isn't.
5. Dad Jeans. If you're giving him jeans, they say to upgrade his style a bit. But the thing is, he probably likes his dad jeans because they're COMFORTABLE, not because they LOOK good.
4. Underwear. If you gave him a three-pack of boxer shorts on any other day, I guarantee he'd appreciate it. But on Father's Day, it just says you put in zero effort.
3. Hair Products. Let HIM worry about his hair. He knows how much he's got left.
2. A Novelty Tie. He might wear it once or twice, but if you really want to do the Father's Day tie thing, get him a NICE tie. And get him something else to go with it.
1. A Coffee Mug. If it says something like "World's Greatest Dad" on it, maybe. It just can't be the ONLY gift you give him.
Based on this…guys...be honest, if you could have anything...what would you REALLY want for Father's Day? Or…what was the lamest gift you got or gave for Father’s Day? Here are some of the texts we got:
Im 25 the only thing i got my dad for fathers day was a quart of oil cause his trucks always leaking oil. Happy fathers day dad!
Fathers day My wife scheduled a massage for me. She paid for it by using the gift certificate I bought for her 2 Christmas' ago. Lame.
I just want to be left alone.
I got asked for a divorce on father's day... Got to pay child support for the next 13 years
I would like a hot 18 year old stripper
a peaceful divorce
I was dropping hints to my gf that i want the BLD KISW shirt
The dumbest gift I ever got for father's day was a stupid candle from my wife. She asked me to buy the candle for her mother initially but it ended up in my lap for a gift for father's day how lame is that ??
I would get my back room sound proofed so I can play my drums whenever I want
Every yr I get my hubby a round of golfat Lake Padden...he goes w/ his 4 friends every yr. Don't expect to see him untill evening...warm apple pie will be waiting. I'd give him "desert" But he'll fall asleep snoring on the couch with his plate on his chest..lol ~Nancy

Huge thanks to Brian Robinson from www.arenasolution.org for joining us this morning. Brian has been a very vocal dude since the Sonics were taken from Seattle, and are now in OKC…3 wins away from their first NBA championship (ugh). He headed up Save Our Sonics, and with the news of Chris Hansen wanting to build a new arena, and now Steve Ballmer and the Nordstrom family making it official that they are backing this effort as well…it’s looking more and more likely we might have the Sonics playing in Seattle again one day…and we might welcome a NHL franchise to the Emerald City too! I am so beyond excited that hockey might happen! Today there is a rally that you can attend to let your voice be heard that we want an NBA & NHL franchise! Here is the details:

According to new survey from social software provider harmon.ie, they asked telecommuters about the craziest places they've worked from. Here's what they found:
--56% have done work at a restaurant.
--45% have done work in BED.
--14% have done work in a public bathroom.
--14% have done work ON THE BEACH.
--12% have done work at a sporting event.
--And 12% have done work at their CHILD'S RECITAL.
I have been guilty of doing work at many random places…from the locker room at the hockey rink, to a bar, to the beaches of Hawaii…I love that I can get work done anywhere so long as I have my phone handy. I get so much work done when my wife is shopping and I am walking around with her. Of course I do it in the bathroom, but the biggest offender of that is BJ. I’ll be sitting next to him in the office, then he disappears…and next thing you know…bam! I have a slew of emails from him. My only response to him when I get these: “Make sure you wipe BJ!” What about you? What is the craziest place you have worked from? Here are the texts:
A few years ago, my office job had me working with international companies. I would get emails and calls at all hours. So most of my work was at bars, pubs or the hurricane. Nothing better than dealing with people from Russia wasted at an Irish bar. Cajun
Yes BJ i work from my cabin in non alaska. 160 miles from nearest neighbor. Could not get any better. Just sayin
I got booked for a DUI and was able to hide my phone between my ass cheeks before I was asked to exit the car. Was able to answer emails and texts secretlyfrom my cell.
I fixed my office exchange server from the ski lift on my way to the top.
I'm working naked in my bathroom while getting ready right now!
I love open n clean spaces for work/homework so I will lay blankets out in front yard or use to climb up to roof top weather permitting =] <3 rock girl Amanda

San Francisco . . . Oakland . . . Boston . . . and Los Angeles.
Based on this…what do you do that makes you “manly”? Or for the ladies…What does your man do that you think is very “manly”? here are the texts we got:

Today's video blog is part 2 of our chat with Ben Bailey, the host of Cash Cab. Ben shares some great Cash Cab stories in this clip.
We came across this interesting story about James Franklin…James is the head football coach at Vanderbilt University in Nashville, Tennessee. In an interview, he said he won't hire an assistant coach unless he gets a look at the guy's wife first…to see if she's HOT. Why? Because having a hot wife shows your recruiting skills. Franklin says, "There's a very strong correlation between having the confidence, going up and talking to a woman…(and) walking into a high school and recruiting a kid and selling him."
So Vanderbilt’s coach won’t hire an assistant unless they have a hot wife because that shows their recruiting skills…based on this…when has your or someone else’s looks worked to your advantage? Here are some of the texts we got:
I look like a harmless and nerdy, but I used to be a drug dealer. I always fly below the radar and have never been arrested.
I got a medical reception job because they said I have the look they want to to represent their clinic!
I used to date a seagal and her looks and moves got me season tickets for five years and got to meet many players. Good times

I had a full goatee in high school, and I got served alcohol at dinner before prom without being carded
A new survey asked dads what one person, past or present, they'd most like to play golf with on Father's Day. And the answer is . . . anyone but their wives. Ok, not exactly, but here's how the results turned out . . .
--27% said they'd most want to golf with their own dad.
--22% would most want to golf with their son or daughter.
--18% would most want to golf with either PHIL MICKELSON or ARNOLD PALMER.
--And only 8% would most want to golf with their wife.
This got us thinking…none of us like to golf, but we do have hobbies and it would be fun to hand pick who we could do that hobby with…so whether it be a celebrity or someone you know, finish this sentence: "I wish I could do _____ with _____." Here are some of the texts we got:
I wish I could ride shotgun w/ Dale earnhardt Jr for 10 laps around Dayton Raceway @ 200 mph+

Ugh. Well the awesome playoff run for the Devils ended last night, as the LA Kings won their first Stanley Cup ever (they have been a franchise for nearly 45 years!)…beating the Devils 6-1 last night. That score looks ugly, and it is, but the reason it was so bad was because of a ridiculously dumb penalty by Devils Steve Bernier…he got a 5 minute major for boarding, and the beauty of a major penalty is that even if the other team scores, your guys still sits in the penalty box for the entire 5 minutes. Well the Kings took advantage of that and scored 3 times during that 5 minute one-man advantage. I read a lot of bitching about the officiating, the rules, etc…but at the end of the day…they still had 2 periods to turn it into a game, and they didn’t…the Kings looked great, and although it sucks watching them celebrate a cup win by beating my favorite team…it was cool to see a team win their first championship…and do it in front of their fans. Then came the best moment ion all of sports…The post playoff series hand shake. I know some don’t like this, but I think it’s one of the coolest things in all of sports…and it is one of the many reasons why I think hockey is the greatest sport. It was real cool to see the moment whenMartin Brodeur and playoff MVP Jonathan Quick stopped to talk and shake hands…
The true MVP though for the Kings though wasn’t Quick…hell it wasn’t even Steve Bernier from the Devils (although they should put his name on the cup)...the MVP goes to her:
Yup…that’s porn actress Taylor Stevens…and she was spotted behind the Devils bench…making every fan hope the TV crew would cut to coach Deboer…here is a pic of her at the game:
We came across a couple interesting stories…There are a few new things to worry about in life. One of them is…GOUT. The number of gout cases in the U.S. has doubled over the past 20 years, and now 4% of the population suffers from it. That's 8.3 million people. Gout is a form of arthritis that comes from high uric acid buildup in the body. You'll have swelling and pain on your feet and possibly ankles and knees. The best ways to control it are, of course, diet and exercise.
The other thing people are worrying about is Self Control. A new study from the University of Iowa found that we only have a limited amount of self-control . . . once it's used up we're much more likely to do something DUMB the next time we're faced with a challenging situation.
Based on a story about how Gout and Self control are 2 new things that people worry about...what is something that you are currently worrying about? Here are some of the texts we received:
Hey it's Erica… I am currently worried about my little sister we haven't spoken in over year and she just had a baby yesterday and I just hope she comes around one of these days and wants to talk to me again I love her very much and I wish her the best of luck with this new chapter in her life

Big thanks to actor Simon Pegg for joining us. Simon shared with us that he just wrapped up filming the second Star trek film, and his book “Nerd Do Well” is now available on paperback…if you are a fan of all things Sci-Fi/Geeky you will love his stories…like this this one about Carrie Fisher of Star Trek fame, and the time he met her at a Comic-Con:
A funny thing happened to David Arquette when he went to Israel to film a segment for the Travel Channel series "Mile High". At 41 years of age, he finally had his bar mitzvah. He Tweeted, "I had my Bar Mitzvah today… Finally I'm a man." Arquette's mother is Jewish, but he and his siblings weren't raised in a religious environment.
So David Arquette finally had his Bar Mitzvah...at the age of 41! So we asked the Rock-A-Holics to finish this sentence…”It took me long enough, but I finally did ______.” Or…what is something at your age that you should have accomplished by now? Here are some of the texts we got:
At age 57 i went back to school and got a degree in Horticulture. in 3 yrs i will be a certified arborist
I finally maxed out my V card at 29. And yes, I get the saying you don't know what you're missing, because it was great! Marci

Today's Video Blog features part of our chat with Ben Bailey from Cash Cab!
OK what an awesome weekend…huge thanks to my homie Tony over at Tony’s Tried & True Tattoo in Port Orchard (check em out tonystriedandtrue.com) as we spent yesterday laying more ink on my arm...the sleeve is almost done!
The weekend was awesome as well because my team, The New Jersey Devils won on Saturday 2-1 vs. the LA Kings…forcing a game 6…all of a sudden we have a series, and the fair weather band wagon Kings fans are no longer talking smack. Tonight is game 6…lets go Devils! I love that rookie Adam Henrique, who has been a beast in the playoffs, is not rocking a playoff beard…but a playoff ‘stache…check it out!
Also on Saturday was the Manny Pacquiao / Timothy Bradly fight…if you watched this fight, you are probably like me and most people that thought Pac-Man easily won this bout by decision…many saying 11 rounds to 1…so when the announce declared Bradley the winner by split decision…all of our jaws dropped…hell I think even Bradley was shocked. What a joke. Seriously…what were the judges watching…highlights from the Heat/Celtics game? It’s sad when the WWE is more legitimate with their endings than boxing. Dana White from the UFC must be loving this…only adds to the argument that MMA is better than boxing.
David McCullough Junior is an English teacher at a High School in Boston. A few days ago at his school's graduation David spoke at the graduation and told them that they aren’t special! Here are a few of his best quotes:
--“You've conquered high school . . . here we all have gathered for you. But do not get the idea you're anything special. Because you're not.
--"Across the country no fewer than 3.2 million seniors are graduating about now from 37,000 high schools. That's 37,000 valedictorians, 37,000 class presidents, 340,000 swaggering jocks.
--"You see, if everyone is special, then no one is. If everyone gets a trophy, trophies become meaningless . . . we Americans have of late come to love accolades more than genuine achievement. We have come to see them as the point.
--"No longer is it how you play the game, or even whether you win or lose, or learn or grow, or enjoy yourself doing it . . . now it's 'So what does this get me?'
--"The fulfilling life, the distinctive life, the relevant life, is an achievement, not something that will fall into your lap because you're a nice person or mommy ordered it from the caterer.
--"Then you too will discover the great and curious truth of the human experience is that selflessness is the best thing you can do for yourself. The sweetest joys of life, then, come only with the recognition that you're not special. Because everyone is."
Based on this story of a teacher telling his students that they aren’t special…Looking back on your life…what is something that the adult version of you wishes you could have told the high school version of you?? Here are the texts we received:
Wrap it up
Have more fun, those few girls are bad news ignore them, don't let the other one slip away. Actually study
I would tell my high school self to kiss my girlfriend Cate first because i will never hear the last of it that she kissed me first.

Last week, a 69-year-old man in Manchester, England put a metal ring around his manhood as a sex aid. We're not sure if he was with someone or solo, but he put on the ring and did something sexual. Here is the problem…once he was done; he couldn't get the ring off! He tried waiting, he tried getting it off when he wasn't excited, and nothing worked. Finally, he went to the hospital. His doctors called the fire department, and they ended up using a tool that they normally use to cut open cars (OW!!!) during rescues. The procedure took an hour, but it was successful. The man spent the night in the hospital and is now recovering.
Based on the story of a man that needed a fire crew to cut him out of the ring he put around his genitalia…Looking back on your life…when have you thought to yourself…”I can’t believe I got myself in THAT situation”? Here are the texts we got:
Once put a firemen sticker, you know the gold shield they give out at parades, on my boys when I was 9. Took both my parents, some vasoline, and a bit of yanking to get it off. Not my finest moment. -"That guy"

I previuosly worked with troubled kids,and was asked to check on one at a home in N.Snohomish county. It resulted in a 30 min Dukes of Hazard car chase/demolition derby. When the chase was over I was up against 5 men 2 with knives....I pulled out the Taurus .380 handgun I carried and changed a few minds....ended up facedown at gunpoint,until the police sorted it out.....turns out it was a meth-house, and I took em down all by myself....it took me almost a week to wrap my head around that fiasco.
when the senior citizen living in the apartment above me, took me hostage at gunpoint and the s.w.a.t. team had to come break me out of his apartment.
When i was five i was at the neighbors house riding around on one of those toy motorized quads. They had a rope hanging from a tree with a loop at the end. I accidently rode by it and my head went through the loop and the quad kept going. So as i was hanging from a noose the grandma ran out grabbed me down and said, don't tell your mom!
When i was 9 my friend got his member stuck in a beer bottle. He had to break it to get it out, surprisingly no cuts

Big game tomorrow….as the Devils try and stay alive in the Stanley Cup finals, they are down 3 games to 1…one more loss and they are done! Since they played so well in the last game…I’m thinking they need to fly porn star Taylor Stevens to New Jersey for the game on Saturday. If you were watching the game…you might have noticed a busty woman behind the Devils coach Pete DeBoer:
A lot of people were probably wondering…who is that? With those cannons! Well…Taylor Tweeted that it was her…
The best part was Devils coach Pete DeBoer checking her out after seeing that she was behind him on the big screen!

The night was awesome also because my wife and I had a great date night…dinner at Dragonfish, which always rules…and then we saw Green Day’s American Idiot – The Musical! I’m telling you this…if you are a Green Day fan, you are going to LOVE this show…if you aren’t a Green Day fan, you are going to LOVE this show. It was a great, fast paced performance. I’m not a “musical” kind of guy, and I enjoyed every second of this musical…plus it gave me a new found appreciation for a record I already love – American Idiot by Green Day. The show runs until Sunday at The Paramount Theater…get tickets at http://www.stgpresents.org/. We had Van Hughes, the star of American Idiot, in studio on Tuesday…here he is performing “Boulevard Of Broken Dreams” (I posted the interview in yesterday’s blog, which you can get to here: http://www.kisw.com/STP-s-BLOG-06-06-12--Metal-Day-/11281377?pid=244836 ):

Mark Paul Gosselaar gained notoriety for playing Zack Morris on "Saved By the Bell" . . . but apparently, he doesn't hold the show in as high esteem as many people do. He says, quote, "It's not a great show . . . the writing is kind of hokey . . . it's very much a piece of that time."
Mark-Paul also says that he doesn't understand why it became such a huge hit in syndication. He adds, "We just thought we were doing a small little Saturday morning show and no one was watching. We were almost canceled every season. So we never got big heads . . . the two years after 'Saved By the Bell' I couldn't buy myself a job, because nobody had seen the show."
Mark Paul Gosselaar says that Saved By The Bell is not a great show, but it was hugely popular…based on this…whether it be a TV show, a movie, a musical record, or anything else…what is something that you know isn’t good, but you still love it? Here are the texts:

While waiting to leave for Iraq a bunch of us guys talked a guy onto drinking a whole bottle of dip spit that everyone on the building helped fill up.
Funneled a record 21 beers on spring break. Puked the last one into the tube...was told that one didn't count...so I funneled the puke and last beer.
My buddy was drunk, hopped up on the bar, pulled down his pants, and helicopter helicopter helicopter...
I worked in a local circus. Once we got ahold of a propane cannon and decided it'd be fun to BBQ with, so we took turns cooking with a 15 foot cone of fire.
My buddy snorted sawdust back in high school. Then proceeded to ask the shop teacher, if getting sawdust in your nose could kill you. Nate.
My buddy had a rock star moment when he was drunk and he swallowed a live baby gardner snake
I once snorted wasabi powder. Felt that for a good 2 weeks
Snorted parmesan cheese out of a little ceasers cheese shaker... needless to say I had string cheese for days... Dolphin-chef
I got messed up an got my friends dads penis pump stuck on my junk
Being that today is Metal Day on the Rock… we are celebrating the History Of Heavy! What is your “Metal Memory”? We want to hear about your history with Metal! Whether it your favorite metal album, to a memorable concert, or anything involving Metal…here are some of the texts:
Lost my virginity to 'pour some sugar on me' :) ...mindi in Olympia...
I saw Children of Bodom in Dallas and hung out with them at a strip club owned by vinnie paul then went to breakfast at dennys with them – brian
From the time I was a baby until I was like 4, my favorite song was enter sandman. My mom has a home video of me in 1990 jumpin up an down head banging to enter sandman
Guns and roses when I was 11 at Los Angeles coliseum, asked my parents what that smell was, and they said its marijuana, healthier than cigarettes.
When I was 15 I got my dad 2 drive me & a friend 2 meet Quiet Riot @ Tower Records in Seattle. Still have the autograph picture disc!
When I was about 11 I had to get a cavity filled and my dentist gave me a Walkman to drown out the sound. I found KISW and metallica was on. I have been hooked ever since. I even have a Metallica tattoo. And in 2003 I went to the summer sanitarium concert and showed my boobies to the winner of the Metallica ford f-150 for a beer.
I've got lots, but 1 that comes to mind is when tomcat (hellyeah) gave me his booze by putting it on his guitar head & lowering it over for me to take =D
A couple years ago I got to met the lead singer from "type o negitive". He had a cold but I shook his hand all the same. The next day I got sick from him.

I’m not in the best of spirits…I feel like I got punched in the gut last night as the Devils got spanked 4-0, and are one loss away from being swept in the Stanley Cup Finals. I know it’s great to just make the finals, especially when no one thought they would, but it doesn’t lessen the pain of watching your team be so close to another cup…only to have it quickly fade away. What made it worse was that the Devils were dominating during the first half of the game…they just couldn’t score, and it’s a simple theory…but if you can’t score you can’t win. Then the Kings get a B.S. goal to start things off, and then they score a sweet goal…and the momentum is changed. The Devils looked defeated in the final period, and the final score was proof of that. Game 4 is tomorrow…fingers crossed the devils can win and win three more after that and be the first team to win a Stanley Cup after being down 3-0 since the 1942 Maple Leafs! Doubt it though! I saw this on Twitter, this is a pretty funny thing some of the fans did to screw with the Devils...since they are from New Jersey:
I would’ve thought nothing would cheer me up…until I saw this story, yest it’s disturbing…but I challenge you not to laugh when you watch the video. A man from Holland named Bart Jansen decided to pay tribute to his dead cat by having it stuffed . . . then turning it into a remote controlled HELICOPTER. Jansen is a fan of aviation; in fact he named the cat Orville, after Orville Wright of the Wright Brothers. And he's calling it the, "Orvillecopter". There's video of him flying it on YouTube, which you can see on the BJ page of KISW DOT COM in Viral Videos. He had it stuffed with all four legs stretched out so it's spread eagle. Then he attached rotors to the end of each leg, plus landing gear on its stomach. This was all done in the name of "art." Jansen is an artist, and it's part of an art exhibit in Amsterdam. OK…here is the video…all I can say is WOW!
The AARP just released the results of a survey asking people of all ages what makes them the HAPPIEST.
These were the five things they found that make people of all ages the happiest . . .
1. Kissing or hugging someone you love.
2. Watching your children, grandchildren, or a close relative succeed.
3. Being told you're someone who can be trusted or relied on.
4. Spending time with your family or friends at a meal or social gathering.
5. Experiencing a special moment with a child.
--And of the 38 activities in the survey, here are the five that do the WORST job at making us happy.
1. Playing board games, cards, or video games. They do the WORST job of making us happy.
2. Connecting with friends or family on Facebook.
3. Watching or participating in a sport.
4. Completing a puzzle.
5. Winning an award or a competition.
Overall, 68% of people reported being happy. The breakdown was 49% of people saying they're somewhat happy, and 19% saying they're very happy. Based on this study of what makes people the HAPPIEST…it’s a simple question…what makes you happy, and what drives you nuts? Here are the texts we received:
Whats makes me happy and dives me nuts.. One word.. Women.. Bld
My wife. hahaha. She makes me happy all the time. Sometimes she bugs the s outta me. Love her to death. Erik from Elma.
Weed makes me happy!when I am out makes me unhappy! Montana Girl
My dogs make me happy... Jon from evetrtt
People that chew with their mouth out drive me insane, Katie from Monroe
Few things are more happy making than a sandwich from Salumi in Pioneer Square. Epic food. On the flipside, nothing drives me more insane than people who don't replace a roll of toilet paper. –Bjorn
Fricken slow drivers piss me off. From Cameron in Ravensdale
Happy? Easy. Getting out on my Harley Softtail, especially on some good back roads. Irritating? Condescending people who look down on your job. Blake (Kirkland)
What makes me happy is comic books and video games what drives me nuts is people texting while driving and no im not doing the latter im at work cheers scott from kent
I'm a pyrotechnician and nothing makes me happyer then the roar of the crowed after one of are shows... Mike from Orion pyrotechnics
Honestly just hangin with my wife makes me the happiest Red CHM
Yesterday we were talking about the superstitious things that a fan will do because they think it will help their team win, and BJ shared a story about how he didn’t change his underwear or any of his clothes for the Red Sox during their World Series run...this led to a fun topic: What superstitious things do you do...or have done for your team because you think it'll help them win? Here are the texts:
We drape our Terrible Towel on the Tv.
i wore the same shirt and tie to everygame.
Every time I watch the 49ers play on TV they lose
I wear the same sounders jersey to every home match and a different one for watching
I rooted for the opposing team worked all the way to the Seahawks super bowl. Then they lost.
It's not sports related, but I have a superstition for auditions. I wear the same shirt, jeans, cologne, and up until their recent death my lucky shoes.
I wear a kilt to every Seahawks game I go to.
I always kept my donkey hockey necklace with me. Little did i know it probably would have helped more if i had just hid the beer til after the game. Lol
I stay drunk and promised to stop drinking if the Mariners became a winning team. I'm still drunk
During the mariners 116 winning season everygame i made sure i would eat sunflower seeds during game play, no matter how raw my tongue got
My ex thought that her watching the game on TV was bad luck, so I got to watch football in peace! Thank you stupid superstitious people. –Ryan
Hey guys I'm a rugby player for Minnesota state university, when I was younger I knocked my tooth out on the monkey bars and have had a retainer with a tooth on it ever since, needless to say one time before a big game I stored my tooth in a pair of shoes I brought and we won the game, I have been keeping it there now for every game since.
Another rough loss for the Devils…unreal. It honestly was like I was watching a re-run of game one. So many similarities...lets review:
1. Marty gives up a weak goal, but then turns it around and plays amazing.
2. Devils finally score, but it’s a fluke goal.
3. Devils dominate 3rd period.
4. Devils nearly score at the end of regulation
5. Devils dominate Overtime
6. The Kings win it in OT after a Devils mistake
7. Final score 2-1
Let’s hope game 3 is different…the Devils better have worked on shooting the puck in practice. This is ridiculous, your goalie is only allowing 1 goal in regulation time…you should be winning these games!
What a great night Friday, as the BJ Shea Comedy Riot went down at The Paramount Theater, and thanks to Lisa Lampanelli, Chris Hardwick, John Keister, and Mono-Nick for a great night of comedy!
Huge thanks to Iron Mike for snapping this pic that I photo bombed!
For those that missed it, and are wondering how Mono-Nick did, here is a “film” about Mono-Nick's comedy aspirations.
Here is the same video for you iPHONE users:
Did you hear about this Seattle garbage truck driver that was the hero of the day last Thursday? A quick-thinking Seattle garbage truck driver helped rescue a baby in a runaway stroller. Jeff Blackburn was on his Queen Anne route Thursday when he saw a woman jogging with a baby in a stroller. The woman turned the stroller sideways at the top of Bigelow Avenue, and the stroller just turned and took off. Jeff said, “I started honking the horn and speeding up so I could catch up to it before it got to the intersection, because at the bottom of the hill was a busy intersection with stop signs." Blackburn used his truck to block any traffic, and ran to save the baby.
After reading this story, we got a text from Jeff!
Thanks for the kind words today guys, it was awesome to hear my favorite radio personalities talking about ME! Jeff Blackburn
Here is the video of what he did:
Blackburn was asked if he had seen anything like this before in the three years he's been on the route. He said, "No, this is the first. People usually hold on to their children.”
We got this text based on this story:
I work with Jeff he is very humble and a helluva nice guy. Many of us listen daily, thanks for the love!
Based on this story of the Seattle garbage truck driver…when have you or someone you know been a “hero”? Here are some of the texts we received:

My father is a paramedic. Before that he was a SAR corpsman in the navy. He was awarded and air medal for pulling a man off of mount baker in an SH-3. He was dropped out of the helicopter an had to climb several hundred feet to effect the rescue.
Was on a cruise ship, one of the big ones, and a girl leaned too far over the rail and fell into the water. I yelled "woman overboard". Then realized she couldn't swim so as soon as I saw some crew across the ship coming with a life preserver I jumped in to keep her from going under. Had a heros dinner with the captain that night.

According to a new survey, about 20% of people have an accident, get sick, or suffer some kind of an injury on vacation. It's because people push themselves to try new things on vacation . . . and whether that means eating stuff your stomach can't handle or trying something that's too physically challenging, it can lead to you getting sick or hurt. Food poisoning is the most common way people get hurt on vacation. Car or bike accidents are second, and skiing accidents are third.
So we had to ask…is this you? What happened? When have you or someone you know injured themselves while on vacation? Here are some of the texts we got:
My Scottsdale pool side vacation was ruined when I slipped and fell down the escalator at the airport ripping my pants, bloody knee, face, elbows etc, a hurt back and a broken ankle that they put a cast on immediately. My poolside vacation turned into a vicodin room service filled week. It was horrible. Scars to prove it all to this day. :)

26-year-old Julie Warning was a global studies teacher at the Manhattan Theater Lab High School in New York City. 18-year-old Eric Arty was one of her students. And earlier this week, they were photographed MAKING OUT in broad daylight in a park. Check it out:
This is the best part…Turns out Eric and four of his friends actually had a $500 BET on which one of them could kiss her first. They each put in $100, and Eric kissed her first, either to win the bet or because he liked her. Either way it destroyed her career. The school district is investigating the case. Not only does Eric win money, but he wins in life…she’s hot…check her out:
]Tonight is the night!!! We hope to see you there….

There is a hilarious video online of a guy trying to look cool on a scooter, but his attempt to show off is an epic fail. A guy on a scooter tried to impress the crowd in Ocean City, Maryland by attempting a wheelie on his scooter. Then it all comes to a halt when he falls of the scooter while doing the wheelie, and the crowd’s reaction is priceless. Here is the video:
This video is the funniest thing ever! I wish he would’ve landed on his head to knock the stupid outta him! I see morons like this all the time on 512…granted they aren’t on a scooter…but nimrods on street bikes, with those stupid helmets that have a red mowhawk glued on em trying to look cool doing wheelies and standing on their bike. Wow. You are soooooo cool. I should pull off 512 because I am not worthy to share the road with someone as cool as you. Knucklehead. Even Rock girl Amanda agrees…she texted in this:
When ever a douche like that drives by me I yell "I wanna be friends with him. He seems awesome" i usually get bystanders to laugh cuz they agree!. hahaha stupid people. <3 rg Amanda
Based on the video of a guy that fell down when trying to do a wheelie on a scooter…When have you tried to look cool, but you wound up looking like an idiot? Here are the texts:
