Britney Spears and The Pussycat Dolls Concert!
Well, it's been awhile since I've put anything here. Seems I update my Facebook status more than I actually update things here.

I turn another year older.
And to celebrate, I go on a day cruise to the Los Coronados Islands, part of Mexico. Don't worry, they're uninhabited for the most part, and I never went ashore, and there are no pigs there.

I QUIT!
The time has come! As of Friday at 5:30 p.m., GuyOnTheAir will no longer be on the air in any way, shape, or form at the company he has worked at for almost 5 years.

Once Upon A Christmas Song
For the record, let me just say it right now. I LOVE CHRISTMAS! It's my favorite holiday, every year.
Oh my, that's so un-LA of me to say. I mean, you're not supposed to like Christmas when you live in Los Angeles. Christmas has too many spiritual and religious roots. You're supposed to like a devil's holiday like Halloween. (How dare I say that out loud!)
Oh well. Let's say it again, over and over and over again. I LOVE CHRISTMAS! See, I'm a person who truly believes that it's the most wonderful time of the year.
Having said all of that, I stumbled across this video this morning. You HAVE to see it. It's funny, and campy, and cute, and actually, pretty cool, I think.
First, watch the introduction. It's actually quite touching...
Then, without further ado, here she/it is, Geraldine Mcqueen!

Spam Headline Fail
Ever since I discovered Failblog a few weeks ago, I've been a HUGE fan. And, I always wished I had something to submit.
Well, I finally got just that something in my inbox this morning! While I don't claim this to be the best one ever, it did make me laugh out loud, something that most of the good fails manage to always do.
So, I've submitted it, and who knows. We'll see if they post it or not. I hope they do! And remember, comrades, you saw it here, first!

I haven't laughed so hard in years...
Perhaps I'm the last person to know, but I never knew about FailBlog until just today. And it's hilarious. I spent hours laughing over all these pictures and videos.
This is my local Sprint store. If it's hard to figure out, I'm number 47 in line. There are people camped out all over the store. Go Sprint Customer Service. Yeah!

Join the Mile High Club - CVS is here to help!
I was in CVS quite some time ago, carelessly browsing the cough and colds section, or some such, when I came across this, which made me bust up laughing.
But, it's nice to know that CVS is so helpful in making sure "size counts", just in case you need some "warming liquid" during your membership attempt.

A Mountain of Laundry
I was telling people that I've been working on my laundry. They don't understand what's taking so long. I tell them I have a mountain of laundry. They don't believe me.
Here's proof.
Oh, and, um, there's still two loads in the machines...

PimpMySearch
Found a cool new Google wannabe. Actually, it's just a novelty site that plays with whatever text you give it, and spits out a Google-looking search site.

Get some money, yo!
So, here's a new competitor for PayPal, and we all know that they definitely need one. And, it's cool, because there are no fees (yet), and heck, they even give you some cash just to sign up. A cold, hard $25.
And your account is FDIC insured...and yes, I checked at the FDIC. It's listed as First Bank & Trust, National Association, FDIC Cert: 27078. Go here if you want to search for yourself.
Anyway, I figure, why not get the $25 from them? And in the interest of disclosure, yes, I get $10 for referring you. Ain't it a wonderful world? Sign up immediately!

A blast from the past...
Ever wondered where "GuyOnTheAir" came from? Well, it was one of my first, and favorite jobs. While I still work in radio to this day, I haven't exactly been "on the air" regularly, well, at least my voice hasn't, in many years.
But, what did I sound like when I was on the air?
I dug up some old stuff, and thought I'd share a clip with you!

Sometimes you get an error that is just so good...
I was surfing a Web site today, and got this:
That is, I think, one of the finest error messages I've ever seen. And it goes on and on and on, and well, I have no idea what it says when I'm done, anyway.
I think I'll call up tech support, and read it, letter by letter to them. They'll get to see what it's like to wait "on hold" for an hour, while I simply spell them this message.

I'm probably WAYYYY too entertained by this, I admit...
But for some reason, this struck me as terribly funny. (Yes, I am a child, apparently.)
This is from "ShopTalk: The TV News Industry's Insider Newsletter". Anyone else notice any problems?
You've got to be bored, but, it's still pretty cool!
I ran across this strange site with photos of broken figurines. I'm not sure how he creates these, but it's fascinating, and here's one of my favorites.

A new take on kick the bottle...
Here's something pretty cool. I've often liked that if you blow in a bottle with a certain amount of water, it produces a note. But, this stunt takes it to a whole new level. How about a classical piece simply by hitting different bottles?
"Will It Blend?"
That's the question asked by a popular, yet unheard of (by me) campaign for Blendtec blenders. At their web site www.WillItBlend.com, Blendtec's CEO Tom Dickson asks that question many times. From iPhones to garden hoses, Tom tries to blend just about anything. And he's open to your suggestions, too.
My hats off to a company who decided that they'd grab hold of the "viral video" phenomenon and produce a bunch of stuff that could show off their blenders.
When I first saw WillItBlend.com this morning, and saw the Blendtec name, I knew I'd seen the name before. Back in the day I used to work at Starbucks, and they used Blendtec blenders to make all those Frappuccinos. So these things really work!
And just so you know, yes, it will most likely blend, as these aren't your $29 WalMart special blenders. These things cost $400.
(The site seems to be slow today, as I think they're getting a lot of traffic from people wanting to see if the iPhone will blend.)

Can you count the passes?
I stumbled upon a fascinating post on a Web site. Obviously, this was on Dateline, and such, so it's not THAT amazing or new, but I found it quite interesting, anyway.
So, can you count all the passes?
Check it out. And let me know how many you saw. I say there was...Oh, check it out, first.

Here's something interesting...
If you've ever found yourself just taking pictures of people you don't know, for no particular reason, well, then there may be a spot on the web for you.

I'm making good on my threats...
I've been saying all year that I need to get out and go camping, and that I'm going to do it soon! Alas, threats are now promises, and to prove it, there's the all new:
Yes, it's the exciting new site that makes it look like I'm really organized, and will really get actual people to go camping with me this very coming weekend, only a few days away.
So far, just me, and perhaps a friend and "his friend." So, we'll see. And, if you know me and want to come, well, head on over, check it out, and let me know.

So, I got a voicemail box, for this?
I love getting voicemail messages, mostly because I like hearing from my friends and people who care. This is NOT one of those times, however. And note, this is X-rated, but still amusing to me...
Anyway, so the way I figure, you might as well call me here in Los Angeles and leave your own message. 323-472-4908. Perhaps there'll be a special prize for creative messages, or profound messages, or something like that. 323-472-4908. And, I think I'll post some of the best messages here on the blog.
And spread the number around. 323-472-4908. Are you a secret admirer? Call me. 323-472-4908. I don't care. 323-472-4908. Dial away!
