This letter cracked me up

Name : Paige
Email : Paige$%%^^
Comments : I enjoy watching you guys on tv -- I'm not into listening on the radio that much (perhaps I'm more of a visual person, who knows. whatever.) But I've enjoyed watching and listening to you guys talk this morning . You're actually intelligent and good at playing your parts (good cop, bad cop, honest cop, average Joe dumb cop) -- and here all along I always heard "JB and Sandy" and thought you were the typical radio douchebags. I mean that in the nicest way possible Totally a compliment. Enjoy the show. "Way to go."

Thanks.

An unreleased Pearl Jam song has surfaced

A previously unreleased PEARL JAM song, called "Better Days", has popped up online. No one is sure when the track was recorded. Apparently, it was accidentally posted on the band's official website. It has since been taken down.


(--Listen to "Better Days" at Antiquiet.com, here . . .)

Sometimes powerlifting makes me puke

Love this story... my wife swears we met in college yrs before we dated

--Alex and Donna Voutsinas are newlyweds in Boynton Beach, Florida. A few days before their wedding, they were going through their old family photos, and found one of Donna's family trip to Walt Disney World when she was just a little girl.


--Alex looked at the background of the photo and spotted something incredible: A guy who looked like his FATHER.


--They looked closer and realized it WAS Alex's father . . . and he was pushing a stroller with a baby ALEX in it. In other words, Alex was randomly in the background of his future wife's Disney World vacation photo.


--It's even more of an incredible coincidence since Alex's family lived in Montreal, Canada, at the time, and happened to be taking a rare trip to Disney World. Once Alex was an adult he moved to Florida and met Donna at work.


--Donna says, quote, "I was glad he proposed before [we found] the picture, because I know that it was because he loves me and not because he thought it was meant to be, it was fate."

You are very welcome

JB,
I am a long time listener vicariously through the website. The good Army has taken me away from the great state of Texas but I check in everyday to see what’s going on. Anyways, I know you are busy and won’t ramble. I saw your video of the soldiers returning and surprising your families. No, didn’t make it through without crying. My husband gets home Saturday from his 4th deployment to Iraq. I know it won’t be the last but it never gets any easier. Thanks for showing your support for the men and women who fight for this country.

Buffie

Nice email

Question: Comment:
Answer: I just wanted to say I have been listing to your show for about 3 years now since I moved to Austin. It is by far the best radio show I have ever listened to. When I first moved here I had a job where i had to be on the road by 6am to get to work on time. Your show is what woke me up in the mornings. Since April I have a new job where I dont have to be at work until 10 so don't think I am crazy when I tell you what I'm about to say. I get up every morning and get dressed and hit the road no later than about 8 every morning just so I can listen to your show as long as I can. I sit in the parking lot at work almost 2 hours early just to listen. It doesn't ALWAYS work out like that but the majority of the time it does. I can't get enough of how yall work together. It's almost like a crazy family which I love. Sandy always talks about not having very many listeners and I'm telling you they don't know what they're missing. I listen everyday just so i can have a good laugh and wake up before work. Don't ever stop doing what you do. Stephen

You really should slow down leaving DFW Airport

We're all so dirty

Recently, a business education blog called Online MBA conducted a study looking at online pornography. Here are some of their findings:


--According to the study, 12% of all websites on the Internet are pornographic. That's nearly 25 MILLION websites overall.


--ONE in FOUR search engine queries . . . roughly 68 MILLION a day . . . are related to pornography. Also, it pains to me say that there are 116,000 searches for "child pornography" every day.


--The most popular pornographic search term is "sex," followed by "adult dating" and "porn."


--40 MILLION Americans regularly visit at least one pornographic website. About a THIRD of them are women.


--35% of all Internet downloads are pornographic.


--The average age a child first sees online pornography is 11.



--ONE in FIVE guys admit they look at porno at work, and so do 13% of women.


--The average visit to a pornographic website lasts six minutes and 29 seconds.


--The state with the highest rate of pornographic website subscriptions is Utah.


--The least popular day of the year to look at pornography is Thanksgiving. And the most popular day of the week to view online smut is Sunday.


--Every second, $3,075.64 is spent on Internet pornography. And at any given moment, 28,258 people are watching online smut.


--Overall, the online pornography industry pulls in $2.84 BILLION a year in the U.S. alone. That accounts for 58% of the $4.9 BILLION Internet pornography pulls in worldwide.

Raleigh and Mena introduce you to Squeeky and Jr. Awesome

Dam that Cancer

Got a friend or family member affected by Cancer. Make a small donation, even if it's $5 to www.damthatcancer.com
Me, my friends Steve, Tim and Alan will be Stand Up Paddling from Lake Travis to Abels on the Lake. 20 miles. Help out if you can. The event is on June 28th.

We're trying to make sense of the Bob Schneider song "40 Dogs". Can you help?

Well if I spell it out, if I get it out,
Will you hear me when I tell you about
What I have to say, before it gets too late?
It's not as easy as I said it'd be,
But there’s something right about you and me,
Something right about you and me.

Well you’re the color of a burning brook,
You’re the color of a sideways look from an undercover cop in a comic book
You’re the color of a storm in June,
You're the color of the moon.
You’re the color of the night, that’s right,
Color of a fight - you move me.
You’re the color of the colored part of The Wizard of Oz movie.

We're like Romeo and Juliet,
We're like 40 dogs, cigarettes,
We're like good times that haven’t happened yet but will.
And I can tell you where we're gonna be
When the whole world falls to the sea:
We’ll be livin’ ever after, happily.

All the boys taking you for granted,
Tell you what they want with their eyes all slanted.
I don’t like the way they look at you,
I don’t like the way they talk to,
I don’t like the way they talk to you.
I wouldn’t let 'em talk to you like that.

Put 'em up high, reach for the ceiling.
Tell them that I'ma walk, damn it, I'm real,
And it ain't no crime, it's just dreams we’re stealing -
Anything to get more of this feeling

You take the high and I'll take the low,
We'll get there before you know.
We ain't got no time to waste,
We got too much life to taste.

We're like Romeo and Juliet,
And 40 dogs, cigarettes,
We're like good times that haven’t happened yet but will.
And I can tell you where we're gonna be
When the whole world falls to the sea:
We’ll be livin’ ever after, happily.

Sometimes you remind me of a moonbeam,
On the ghost of a moonbeam out on the beach,
Down by the coast, slip into Manila,
Like the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.

Come out tonight, come out with me, baby.
We'll throw the careful into the crazy,
Turn the sky black into a sky blue,
Turn the close shave into a hoo-hoo.
What I say is true, make a fire, gotta burn a few,
Make a fire, gotta burn a few,
We can do what we want to do.

We're like Romeo and Juliet, 40 dogs, cigarettes,
We're like good times that haven’t happened yet but will.
I can tell you where we're gonna be
When the whole world falls to the sea:
We’ll be livin’ ever after, happily.

Gotta love this Ultimate Cover Band Drummer

Some Answers about Willie cutting his hair

Last week, the world found out that WILLIE NELSON cut his hair. And this week we know why. It was just too much trouble.


--He tells Canada's "National Post", quote, "I felt like I was pulling a trailer it had gotten so long.


--"My hair was way down below my waist, it was a problem . . . it was heavy, it got dirty and I couldn't wash it because I hurt my arm playing golf. I was using a five wood and hit a rock, and when I hurt my arm that was the last straw.


--"I couldn't take care of my hair by myself and I had to have Annie, my wife, help me wash it."


--Willie was so fed up he didn't even bother hiring a professional to do the cutting.


--He explains, quote, "I was looking for a pair of scissors and I found one in the bathroom drawer and just reached back there and grabbed the ponytail and just cut it as close as I could get it."

This still doesn't answer my burning question, Where are the braids? Did he not save them for a museum, charity auction or something?
