Our webmistress Tracy JUST posted links for the FREE Planet app for Droid!  I downloaded it myself just a few minutes ago during a commercial break and then started playing the streaming audio just after I finished doing the weather.  As soon as it started, I heard myself doing the weather as the streaming audio is less than a minute behind real time!  This thing is FANTASTIC!  Did I mention it’s FREE?!?!?!?!

I know a lot of girls that work in the bars and its really hard to get a shot with them.. Why because they are always getting hit on!!  If your really interested and you want to take the risk of getting shot down!  here are some tips that might help you out!  Found them off askmen.com!   Good luck and as always remember when trying to pick up a girl.  DON’T TRY TOO HARD!!!

Be A Good Tipper

Don’t be stingy with your tip, but also make sure you don’t get sucked into showering her with massive, inappropriate gratuities.

 

Pick The Right Time

She’ll be a little put off if you march right up to her when you first enter the bar and start chatting her up. You need to establish some kind of relationship first, even if it’s just a casual banter. I found a great topic to use as an icebreaker is your mutual disdain for the cheesy guys populating the bar. This way, you distance yourself from the riff raff and get to show off your funny side.

 

Show Your Committed Side

A lot of guys sabotage their chances with bar staff by falling into old habits and hitting on any girl they desire. It might seem obvious, but you can’t let her see you making a play on other patrons. If you want to succeed, you have to commit to this. It’s called a sacrifice.

 

Don’t Be Too Eager

Don’t lurk at the bar and creep her out — act like it’s a normal night out and you’re not there just to work her. Spend too much time working her and she’ll tune you right out. She’s very in tune with guy’s motives. You need to find the perfect balance between showing interest and giving her space to do her job. Find this blend (it really can’t be taught, you have to feel it) and you’ll have a fighting chance.


 

Moderate Your Intake

It’s simple: Don’t get too drunk. Think about what you’re doing as a job. You certainly wouldn’t pound back five double rum and Cokes before a sales meeting, would you? With that being said, a nice light buzz can help you work it a bit more efficiently. Keeping it light shows her you can have a good time without being an idiot. She sees a lot of idiots on her job. Get too drunk and you are just one of those faceless jerks who gets between her and the end of her shift. This isn’t a good thing.

 

Spread The Wealth

Show her how generous and thoughtful you are by buying a couple rounds for the boys. Not only does this show what a great guy you are, it also gives you more opportunity to gain a little face-to-face time with her, even if it is across the bar (and at the expense of your credit rating).

 

Do

Work up the nerve to seal the deal, preferably before last call (only the real hardcores close the bar down, and she probably hates those guys). Tell her you’re leaving, but ask her what she does during the day. Suggest you meet for coffee or a walk, but make sure you get

her phone number.

 

Get Served

There is no doubt that bartenders can be extremely intimidating girls to court. Not only are they usually hot, they’re also well-versed in the advances of guys. Most men would rather keep the relationship professional, with one side serving drinks and the other gawking from a distance. But for those who dare try, the reward can be a generous, thoughtful and fun-loving partner. If you want to join their rare ranks, heed what you read here and do me proud.

Maybe its the Easter Eggs, but lately I seem to be at the wrong place at the wrong time.  It all began on Sunday.  Someone in the pew (no pun intended) past gas. This wasn’t just a loud fart in Church, it was silent but deadly one.  A little girl turned and said someone farted. Her parents were embarrassed by her bluntness.  I was thinking amen,  I was so relieved when the incense was swung.  The biological warfare became worse later at home with my husband. After many deviled eggs he found  himself with an uncomfortable situation.   Begining with The Rise Guys, it was a typical gaseous Monday. Today was the piesta resistance, Twisted Todd broke wind while I was still in the room. Then he did it again twice as loud.  It sounded like Todd got a hold of  a whoopie coushin.

Easter weekend was quite interesting this year simply because a big group of my friends and I met up for a while on Saturday.  Blake and his wife Stacy met Tessa and me as well as their friends Mark and Stephanie at Chili’s on Haywood Rd.  While we were there and debating on what to do afterwards, my friend and personal trainer Mike sent me a text wondering what we were doing so we all got together at Frankie’s Fun Park for some miniature golf.

So, with Tessa and myself, Blake and Stacy, Mark and Stephanie and Mike and his girlfriend Holly all playing that made a group of eight (the recommended maximum group is a foursome)!  We ended up having to play ahead of other members of the group so as to not further congest the flow of traffic of groups playing in behind us each of which were all foursomes so it would take forever if we let them all play through.  However, it was a really fun competition with Blake smoking our asses in the second half to beat me by several strokes as I had the satisfaction of at least coming in second.  It was tough keeping score of eight players though!

After we finally finished our 18 holes, I had the urge to go relieve some pressure from dinner.  So, I hit up the men’s restroom at Frankie’s and the floor was all wet with what I hope was WATER!  As I was doing my business, the left leg of my shorts got SOAKED so it looked like I had peed my pants!  Needless to say, it was a bit embarrassing having to walk around with a soaking wet pant leg!

On Easter Sunday, Tessa and I actually made it to church for a change as we attended the early service (9 am) at Brookwood so we could meet my family at Ryan’s at 11.

After dinner, we all went back to my cousin Ray’s house to hide Easter eggs for his son Jay’s first Easter egg hunt.

Shortly afterwards, Tessa and I left so she could take a nap before heading to work that night.  Speaking of which, I gotta get back to that myself….

Wow, what a time to have a DVR right? I almost don’t see how you can get buy without one now. I would miss all the shows. AxMen, Swamp People, Deadliest Catch, etc.. Seems these days the only things worth watching are the real reality shows, lol. I do like my sports to but you can’t record games. Not much point to this post but thought I would blurt it out anyway, lol.

It is that time for the bands to plan their summer tours. I look forward to see what every year is going to bring. Stone Temple Pilots reunited last summer, and although it was out to a bumpy start, the ban played in Cherokee over the weekend. Another reunion is taking shape with Big Audio Dynamite. The deluxe re-issue of the Big Audio Dynamite album had a good response last year. Mick Jones plains on getting BAD back together, reissuing their 1986 album, No. 10, Upping Street, and recording new music after he finishes touring with Gorilliaz. Rage Against The Machine will be playing some dates this summer.   Stay tuned for details. Soundgarden will head out on their first tour since reuniting last year.  Sublime with Rome is going out on tour.  Sublime with Rome Ramirez. The band will be a part of the Unity Tour with 311.

Everywhere I go the past week, it’s Nine this, Nine that.  Tell him congratulations!  Well I didn’t tell him.  Instead I drove to West Greenville and thanked a random guy.  If we’re congratulating people for having kids I’m taking up money to send gold medals to every resident of Toccoa. 

I really and proud for him and XXXXXXXXXXXXX.  That’s what I’ll call her for this blog as I can’t remember if we’ve called her by name on the show.  A lot of people have asked me if I knew the announcement that Nine was gonna make.  Truth is I didn’t.  Sure there is planning to the show, around 30% is actually booked as we call it.  The rest of it is usually determined by you and your wonderful calls.  The day before Nine just said to me that he would promise a “home run bit” for 7-2 (the second segment of the 7 am hour.)  Now that is a prime slot on the show, research says more people are llistening then than any other part of the show.  Well that’s data for all shows, personally our ratings show consistency for all 4 hours, but that said-I knew it was something big.

From noon that day up until Nine announced the big news, I wondered.  Here were my main targets of what this home run would be.

-JLN had just pulled a big interview, getting Mayor Knox White to darken the doors of The Rise Guys Den of Sin for a first time interview and end to our 8 year rivalry.  Ric Flair was signing autographs the night before in town, so I thought maybe The Nature Boy was coming in studio to style and profile.  Nope.

-A P1 that worked at Ruby Tuesday’s on Pelham Rd. told us they waited on Chevy Chase the night before and sent in a pic to prove it.  I thought, holy crap if Jimmy worked it and got one of my favorite comedians in for me to find out what makes him tick, wonderful!  Nope.

-Then I thought, ok Nine had just ended his living arrangements with his roommate.  Maybe just maybe Nine was gonna allow Jeff to move in as he had been campaigning to do.  Nope.  (And that one really sucks from a personal standpoint because Nine and JLN living together would have been radio gold)

Instead, Nine announced he was going to be a father.  I was speechless and you know that’s rare.  I heard a guy announce he was about to have a child.  Jesus, I was disappointed.  Not really.  Maybe.  I was.  But I’m just being honest.  That’s what you want right?  Ok I’ll stop, I am happy for Nine and XXXXXXXXX.  And if he doesn’t make me the godfather he can go XXXX himself.

Isn’t ever Friday Good Friday? I think so, especially with some NBA Playoffs going on. I still think Bulls and Lakers in the Finals but one is definitely struggling more than the other, still I think the Lakers will get hot and pull through. My Red Sox seem to be warming up, usually takes us a month to get going but I’m not worried at all. You Braves fans though, having a tough West Coast swing, dropping the series to the Dodgers then you have the Giants tonight, good luck, you have a good team, but pitching seems to be the weakness as of late, still think you can make it to the World Series though, we will see I guess. Happy Easter everyone.

In case you missed it, I announced on yesterday morning’s show that I will be a father at some point in 2011! I’m pretty thrilled and ecstatic and excited and scared and nervous and happy and all over the emotional rollercoaster just like everybody else who finds out they have a baby on the way.
The P1’s have been incredible. I got so much positive feedback and love from people yesterday. I was humbled by the awesome response from the family of P1’s. It was an incredible feeling all day long while positive feedback rolled in from everybody I know and a ton of people I don’t know at all.
The only thing that let me down a little bit was how many people at work simply did not believe it when I said it. One of our sales people said it was a “nice bit” via email yesterday morning and I found myself pleading my case to the Web Nazi in the halls before she finally believed it to be true. Then I realized I wasn’t gonna do that. They can believe it or not, but not believing it seems a little bit jaded in a way. But…on the other hand, we’ve been known to pull some pranks around the office and I can understand people not wanting to get invested in something we say if they are gonna find out two days later it isn’t true. But this is true! It’s the whole truth and it is incredible for me whether anyone questions it or not. I’m enjoying the ride and this awesome new part of my life.
If you’ve listened to the show for a long time, you’ve heard me in any number of bad moods over any number of things. At the moment, nothing on Earth can wipe the smile off my face. I struggle to find words for it despite my usually impressive vocabulary. Again, I’m humbled and thankful like I’ve never been before. Life is pretty sweet sometimes. Especially if you let it be good to you.
