These Are The Things I Think About -- Feb27th - Mar11th

Yeah this latest post is a little late. Been getting my life in order after moving. Fact: moving sucks, especially in a snow storm…Oh, and a shamless plug, I recently celebrated my 100th show on Q92!!...Find me weekday afternoon's at Q92Timmins.com
Anywho, here's a look at what’s happened since last time:

Oscars came and went, borefest. Razzie nominations came out, they go April 1st. Adam Sandler has set a new Razzie nomination record with 11.

We had leap year day on February 29th. Keep this in mind, if your pay is set on a yearly salary, you probably worked for free Leap Year Day. Just sayun'. Check with your HR department!…Now you don’t have to feel bad about stealing pens…

It was Dr. Seuss Day on March 2nd. (Insert Dr. Seuss-like rhyme here: I just CANNOT think one up today…which is even more frustrating cause this is a great real Dr. Seuss line: “Oh the thinks you can think up if only you try!”) The Lorax also opened in theatres.

Elsewhere in entertainment, Lindsay Hohan hosted Saturday Night Live. How was it?!… See thoughts on the Oscars above.

In music news, Davy Jones, former lead singer of The Monkees passed away. Davy suffered a heart attack, he was 66. 1 Monkee down, 3 to go….

In sports…Well it’s gone and quickly forgotten for Peyton Manning. The Indianapolis Colts released him, or “parted ways” with him as they say in radio, on Wednesday. But by Thursday Indianapolis Walmarts had already market down his Jerseys to less then 20 dollars. It'll be Peyton Who? by this time next week there. By the way, the Clots press conference, it was like watching old yeller*

Some beer news. Coors is testing an iced-tea-flavored version of Coors Light in Canada. Look for it in April. I’ll guess you are thinking the same thing as me, iced-tea beer sounds disgusting…but, there is beer in it, so yeah I’ll try it!

Finally, it was a significant day yesterday (Saturday) as Chuck Norris turned 72. A few Chuck Norris facts:
--When the boogeyman goes to sleep, he checks his closet for Chuck Norris.--
--‘Superman’ wears Chuck Norris pajamas.--
--When Chuck Norris does a pushup, he isn’t lifting himself up, he’s pushing the Earth down.--
Visit The Gilmore Fan Page on facebook with your favourite Chuck Norris fact!… Oh and get this; Completely true, Saturday was also International Awesomeness Day. Coincidence it fell on Chuck Norris’ B-day?!….Awesomeness Day on his B-day should be a Chuck Norris fact on its own!

OK, I think we're caught up!

--Oh P.S. Here’s the latest sign the world is coming to an end. Lady Gaga has set a new world record by becoming the first person with 20 million followers on Twitter. Justin Bieber is second with 18.1 million, then Katy Perry, Shakira and Britney Spears….This entire story makes me want to throw up…. **
