Does This Offend You Or Motivate You? Posted February 22, 2012 by Stacy Cole

How's that New Year's Resolution working for you? 

This billboard is from the UK-not sure how it would work in this country.  I laughed but I can certainly see how you could be offended at such a billboard! Thoughts?

L.E.D. Snowboarder...Don't You Want One of These Suits? I DO! Posted February 21, 2012 by Stacy Cole

snow light

I've watched this AT LEAST four times.

It was made by filmmaker Jacob Sutton, showcasing snowboarder William Hughes, this captures light on a dark canvas-a man in a L.E.D. suit snowboarding at night. BRILLIANT!!! Enjoy this L.E.D Snow-Surfing film. 

Now, where can I get a snowsuit like this?? 

Don't Bite the Bird That Feeds You!! Posted February 21, 2012 by Stacy Cole

dog bird

My blogs have been a little serious lately so I felt the need to go to the absolutely adorable and stressless video of a bird feeding noodles to a dog.  Have a great day and enjoy this minute of nonsense! 

 

Parents!!! Dangerous trend on Youtube with teen girls! Posted February 20, 2012 by Stacy Cole

sad mom

If you are a parent or know someone that is, they need to see this and make sure their child is not doing it.  Kids are fragile.  This could break them.

For some reason, teen girls are posting videos of themselves and asking the question, "Am I ugly?"

People on the internet can be so cruel and vicious.  Why any person would subject themselves to this is beyond me but I can only imagine the results will be devastating. 


 

 

Stupid women make me SOOO MAD! Posted February 17, 2012 by Stacy Cole

As a woman, I take offense to women like this...

1. Know who your recipient is...it's JEREMY Lin...not Jerry

2. LIN--not LINN.   JEREMY "Lin"...Jeremy Linn is a famous swimmer

3. Jeremy Lin is Asian American, not African American

4. Uh, he's a basketball player not a football player

5. AND, for heck sake, put those hounds back in their cage. Jeez.

6. If this is fake, then, BRAVO.  Well done, you had me fooled. 

Is this a Golden Retriever? I'm not quite sure. Posted February 16, 2012 by Stacy Cole

Saw this picture this morning and I can't figure out what kind of dog it is.  Kallaway thinks it's a Golden.  Is he right? Trivial but I was just curious....

Like a BOSS! Who has more talent, the keel walker or the captain of the sailboat? Posted February 15, 2012 by Stacy Cole

sailboat

There are some risk takers in the world.  We may have found the craziest one of all.  Do you see the guy that looks out of place? Look on the orange keel (under the boat).  There is a man WALKING on the keel of the sailboat.  

Think this is a fake? Watch the video below.

I'll never forget when my favorite station went away... Posted February 14, 2012 by Stacy Cole

He never ceases to amaze me.  Josh Groban is a talent.  Now, follow me on this thought...you'll understand at the end, why I mention Josh.  I grew up in the Twin Cities and I was a faithful listener to WLOL-99.5FM. Even if I didn't like a song, (99 Red Balloons!! ACK), I stuck with them.  I felt like the DJ's were part of my extended family.  

wlol

The DJ's shared parts of their lives with the listener and made me smile. Hines and Berglund in the morning...For me, it was a part of my life. Everything I did, homework, chores, driving, dating...my station was with me.  When bad things happened, my radio station was always there.  When great things happened, they were there. If anyone trashed them, I ignored them.  WLOL was my friend and I didn't care what anyone else thought...

Word came that MPR-Minnesota Public Radio had purchased the signal and would soon be turning it into a classical station.  Classical.  I felt like I'd been punched in the gut.  It was at that moment that I realized how much of an impact a radio station can have on a person. Just having those familiar jingles in your ear can carry you through a bad day...how could they take it away from us? 

Well, it happens.  I moved on to the "other" station in the market and was always left wanting more.  The "other" station wasn't MY station. They weren't there when my dad died...they weren't there when the cute guy asked me out on a date.  They weren't playing when I had my first kiss.  WLOL 99.5FM will ALWAYS be my station.  

If they were still around today, I'm sure I would work there.  Some people aren't that loyal to radio stations and I get it.  It is what it is. BUT, for those of you who truly understand what I'm talking about, you'll understand why I posted this beautiful audio clip from the one and only Josh Groban.  HE feels the same way about the station he listened to when HE was growing up.  

Competition comes and goes but friendships last.  WIFC has been here for forty years.  In fact, WIFC is my new WLOL...I admire the fact that we haven't changed to the flavor of the week.  We have been that friend you can count on to always be there.  

We've been here through Elvis, Stevie Wonder, The Bee Gees, The Rolling Stones, The Eagles, Fleetwood Mac, Van Halen, Culture Club, Duran Duran, Britney Spears, Backstreet Boys, Madonna, Sheryl Crow, Sugar Ray, Barenaked Ladies, Matchbox 20, and to the current music you hear today (Katy Perry, Lady Gaga, LMFAO, etc...)  That's what WLOL was to me but they were snuffed out too soon.  

Here's the clip from Josh...The message at the beginning made me think of WLOL...maybe it will conjur up some memories for you, as well.  

KCRW had a rapper on during a fundraiser and he did a little song that named everyone on the station MINUS one of the jocks! Josh made up for it...

Need a break from all of the bad news? The Swedish Chef has some soup for you!!! Posted February 13, 2012 by Stacy Cole

Looking for a recipe for soup during this cold spell we're having? I'm not sure you want what's in his pot...

Breasts as airbags? I suppose...ugh Posted February 10, 2012 by Stacy Cole

As a woman, I cannot...REPEAT...cannot imagine having these balloons attached to my body but Sheyla Hershey has had over 30 surgeries/spent $100,000.00 to intentionally have these on her chest.  After the Superbowl, she had too much to drink, drove and hit a tree.  As luck would have it, she didn't have her seatbelt on but these 38KKK breasts acted as an airbag.  Ugh....enjoy.

This reporter was on LIVE TV when the dog bit her. Not graphic but a little cringe-worthy. Posted February 9, 2012 by Stacy Cole

THIS IS SAFE FOR WORK BUT MAY BE DISTURBING IF YOU ARE "SENSITIVE"

This sweet dog was rescued a day earlier by firefighter.  Sadly, you can't trust all dogs and she learned the hard way.  This video isn't really graphic but it's a bit startling.  She got chomped on live television.  While it wasn't horrible, she DID end up having surgery.  Unless you KNOW the animal, you never put your face close to theirs.  She learned the hard way. 

I shall eat this.... Posted February 8, 2012 by Stacy Cole

cat camera

Dave Kallaway loves to take pictures. I love cats.  This is the perfect combination...If I know cameras, this is a very expensive camera-kitty...might want to find something else to chomp!!!
