In my seat. Beer in hand. Ready to rock!
On the way to AC/DC in Milwaukee. I'll be updating my blog via text message from the show. Let there be rock!
AC/DC Tonight!!!!!!!
Highway to Hell YES!!! Heading to AC/DC at the Bradley Center tonight and couldn't be more excited. AC/DC is one of the bands on my "Concert Bucket List" - bands I need to see before I (or they) die.
Enjoying all the great AC/DC requests during the Whistle today... plus requests from your Concert Bucket Lists... I happened across this "Bucket List" of a different kind: the Sex Bucket List. Places to have sex before you die.
It's like a Dr. Seuss book... doing it in a box... with a fox... on a train... in the rain...

Happy Birthday Billy Dee Williams
You know him as swarthy space pimp Lando Calrissian from the Star Wars movies...
...or as Gayle Sayers from "Brian's Song."
He also played Harvey Dent in the movie Batman.
No, not that Harvey Dent (although if it had been, they definitely should have gotten the Best Makeup Effects Oscar). I'm talking Harvey from the 1989 Batman with Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson. The one before Tim Burton sucked.
But I may love Billy Dee Williams most of all as the pitchman for Colt 45 Malt Liquor.
I was nowhere near old enough to drink when Colt 45 used to run TV ads. But I still remember how cool Billy Dee Williams was. See for yourself:
"You should join me in Cloud City, because you look like an angel."
...or as Gayle Sayers from "Brian's Song."
James Caan gets cancer and dies. Billy Dee makes it OK for dudes to cry.

"I've just made a deal that'll keep the Empire out of here forever."

Who needs Sex Panther Cologne (60% of the time, it works all the time) when you've got Colt 45?

That's smooth Billy Dee. Very smooth.
I have no idea what's happening in this one. It makes no sense at all.
Fab 5 Freddy? Apparently this one ran on MTV a lot because it looks like a 90's rap video.

Anthony Bourdain on Yo Gabba Gabba
If you've never seen the children's show "Yo Gabba Gabba" you either:
A.) don't have small children.
- or -
B.) don't smoke weed.
Well, Anthony Bourdain - acclaimed author and star of the Travel Channel show "No Reservations" - will be making a guest appearance as Dr. Tony on "Yo Gabba Gabba" on March 10th. Bourdain is also coming to the Weidner Center on June 11th - listen to Rick and Len next week to win tickets. I'm assuming the Weidner show will be more "No Reservations" and very little "Yo Gabba Gabba."
Check out this video of Dr. Tony:

Not News.
The News is important. The News lets you and me know the important things going on in the world, our country, and our towns. The News explains complicated issues. The News provides facts, objectively, that you and I can draw our own conclusions from.
Unfortunately, far too often the media outlets that are supposed to be providing The News to us, instead spoon feed us "news" that isn't important to the world, country, town, or my life. It's "news" that is too lazy to explain complicated issues. Or worse, don't even cover it because it's too complicated for some lazy reporters to figure out themselves. It's "news" that substitutes ridiculous personal opinions for facts. It's "news" that allows someone without credentials or any fact-based data an equal amount (and often greater amount) of airtime as a respected expert with mountains of well-researched scientific data.
Enough of my rant. Check out this far more amusing look at five things the media loves to pretend are news.

Are You Raising a Douchebag? Yes.
It's not your job to be your kid's friend. It's your job to be a parent. Great article from Details magazine here.
You Will Never Pay Off Your Credit Cards
Courtesy of Cracked.com:
Having real credit card issues? Try getting into a Debt Management Plan (DMP) through organizations like Money Management International. They'll negotiate with credit card companies to get your interest rates down to nothing (or almost nothing), lower your minimum payments, and help you make your payments on time. I've been working with them personally for about 5 years and will have what started out at around $30,000 in credit card debt paid off this summer.
