Um…Toyota, it’s time to change your slogan!

Ok, so I think enough time has passed for me to say this: Toyota needs to change their effen slogan. For. Sure.

On my way to work this morning, I as always was speeding, but not by much. Doing 75 in 65 is pretty typical, and this guy in a Toyota came FLYING by me! I couldn’t help but think “Dam, I hope that’s not one of those recalled Toyota’s with a mind of it’s own going crazy again.” (It wasn’t) And then I got to thinkin. What the hell is wrong with Toyota, ‘Keep moving forward’ REALLY!?! WTF! Um…no! Don’t keep moving forward, slow the eff down before I friggin die!!!

Dude you are still recovering from an awful tragedy where 8 MILLION of your vehicles were recalled after killing people because the gas pedals were sticking, causing the cars to unintentionally accelerate to dangerously high speeds…and your slogan is ‘moving forward’!?! Am I the only one tho thinks this is ironic? Funny, as long as you’re not driving a Corolla! Let me know what you think <3 Ri

Bubbles rocks 2009’s WildWoodStock Benefit!!!

Last year, we had an amazing time, and I was extremely honored to take part in this charity event. When asked to help out again, I gladly accepted…now I just need friends and caring individuals everywhere to help out by coming and hanging out. Wildwood is a school in Schenectady that specializes and does outstanding work with special needs children. This touches close to home because a very good friend of mine has an autistic son currently enrolled at Wildwood. If you come to this event, not only will you be helping out kids and families right here in our communtiy, you’ll have a kick ass time! Drink, listen to great music, be merry and support local families…what could be better? Deets below…THANKS on behalf of myself and the Wildwood family!

Changes…

Alright folks, some things have been changing for me! Change is good though, right? We’ll see. So, I am only working on Jamz 96.3 on Sundays from 9am to noon. I am now employed full time as the Fly Morning Rush ‘producer’ for Brian Cody and Chrissy Covotta on Fly 92.3. I’m having fun so far and I see this as a hugh new opportunity for my career. YEA! I’ll keep you updated on my progress, and more fun stuff. <3 Rhe

Donovan McNabb and other sports crap that I have no idea about or intrest it!

Alright, right from the get go, I know that I’m going to hear a whole lot of BS from any and every sports fan that might take a glance at my blog. And for the record, the only reason I’m even bringing this up is because Jamie Hockey-Barrett (a co-worker of mine) suggested I blog about Donovan McNabb, who I know nothing about. I don’t mean to piss people off, so ahead of time, I’m going to give everyone a big oops…my bad! The thing is this, I really have no interest in sports, at all! Unless it’s local, or someone I know is involved, I really don’t care. 

Like that whole NCAA thing, first of all, what the hell does that even mean? Does NCAA stand for something? Actually, that doesn’t matter at all, because the bottom line is: I’M SICK OF IT!!! Basketball has taken over my TV for the past month, and the topic of everyone’s conversation are those stoopid brackets. Don’t get me wrong, I really tried to get into it, I even filled out TWO of those bracket thingies and it wasn’t until I realized that my boyfriend doesn’t care if I’m dead or alive, just as long as Kansas State is winning, that I gave up! WTF? Do people really care enough about college basketball to dedicate an entire month of our lives to it? I guess so.

And now, this guy know as Donovan McNabb…who the hell is he anyway? First of all, he has a terrible last name, it kind of reminds me of like Donovan McScab…eew! So I did a little research. I found out he’s this guy who plays as a quarterback for the Philadelphia Eagles who may get traded on May 5th. I don’t know why this is such a big deal, except something in this story did peak my interest. The fact that he may be replaced by none other than the hell hole known as Michael Vick! Now, I know being vengeful is wrong, but because I am a hugely avid animal lover, I really dislike Michael Vick and the horse he rode in on (his mom). Lol. So, automatically that makes me Team McNabb! Upon furter investigation, I found out that Buffalo and Oakland are both showing some interest in McNabb, and I say that maybe he’d be better off on either one of those teams. Where he wouldn’t be subjected to Vick’s man ass jerky loving, dog hating ways. I just think that if a ball player and team is getting any kind of publicity, it should be about the game, and not about the amout of prison time their team mate did. Thats it. I guess no one (especially myself) knows whats going to happen to Donovan McNabb come May 5th. Some people care, I really don’t, but I’ll just say now that I am Team McNabb for all the wrong reasons. And eff the Eagles if they trade him.

There you have it, this is how I feel about these two random sports topics that I know nothing about. Hockey-Barrett, I hope I made you proud with my lulnatic rants about nothing, I have your back baby! Readers…if you made it this far, sorry I subjected you to all this. If your head hasn’t exploded already, tune in tomorrow, I promise I’ll have something better. Stay sexy bitches! <3 Ri

Random Old Dudes

     Oh Good God BLOG!!! I’ve been waiting to write you!!! For all my awesome readers, thanks for checking me out. I’m a 25 year old radio ‘personality’ born and raised right here in Albany. I graduated from the High in ‘02, and right now, I’m currently employed at Jamz 96.3.  My job all in all is pretty awesome, but it does have it’s downfalls. It keeps me very busy.

     That brings me to my point. Last night, Northern Lights had a sick ass show which included La Coka Nostra, my very favorite Shyste and House of Pain! The concert rocked! In the middle of all of this partying, drunken fun, I couldn’t help but notice that there were two random old dudes (not together) just walking around aimlessly. Now, realistically, I am aware that House of Pain is old school, a majority of the crowd was mid to late 20’s maybe early 30’s. But these two dudes were like 45 +, with the crazy high jeans and tucked in T-shirts, and they were alone. Not dancing, not socailizing, just walking around in a daze.  

     Maybe it’s just me, and I’m being very critical, but I had to wonder wtf these two random old dudes were doing at a House of Pain concert. My own imagination gives me lots of answers, none of which are probably true. Hell maybe they’re Irish, and are just supporting the cause, but still I don’t know. I think it’s a little strange. Let me know how you feel, am I thinking about this too much? Please help me out here.
