Charlotte Radio DJ has fever from VD
No... not VD, the sex disease.
VD - Valentine's Day.
Brotha' Fred and his AM Mayhem are getting a little risque for the sweetheart holiday.
It is clickable, if you dare
96.1 The Beat, looking for (and at) your sexy photos. They are posting them online, so Charlotte can vote on the sexiest of the top 25 men and women.
Definitely worth a check.
Fred - *shakes head while laughing* - too funny (and a lil disturbing).

Cupid may be stupid, but don't F- up guys!
Guys and single men/women all hate Valentine's Day.
This is an article for the men - don't F- up on Valentine's. You hate it, you think its dumb and a commercial holiday... but your woman loves it. Probably because its one of the times in a year that you HAVE to show her how much you love/like her.
Here are a couple pointers guys (from the experts, since I'm clueless, too).
Don't make the day a "Bling Thing." Even the slightest hint that you're expecting an engagement ring can make him run for cover. Unless you think it's time to get rid of him, avoid any ring talk.
Along similar lines, if your partner is unsure of what to get you and wants your input, avoid mentioning ultra-pricey precious gemstones and metals, timepieces, or exotic trips, especially if you recently started dating. It's just not cool, especially during these challenging economic times. There are other ways that he can make you feel like a queen - without the pressure of price tags.
Have a good time...

Here are a couple pointers guys (from the experts, since I'm clueless, too).
- DON'T...
- Follow the Herd - Most lovers appreciate a little one-on-one time on this particular day. So, don't even think about suggesting that the two of you join a small army of friends for "a couple of beers" and some loud club music.
- Be a Cliché - Red roses are pretty, sure. Chocolates taste good, yup. But don't do both, unless you add in something unique. Differentiate your relationship from every other one out there. A big bowl of garden-fresh gardenias or a sweet bunch of colorful Gerber daisies speak volumes over a dozen been-there-done-that red roses. She will appreciate when you think outside the chocolate box.
- DO...
- Get Crafty - Make a homemade card or collage, design a T-shirt at the copy shop with an inside joke, or log onto Snapfish or iPhoto and design a do-it-yourself photo album -- it's fun to create and affordable, too.
- Mix It Up - Make a mixed CD of favorite songs. This is a gift that carries a lot of weight. It's thoughtful and requires some decent time to make it -- brownie points for you!
- Woo Chez Vous - Invite your loved one to your place for a perfect evening in. Make pasta together, grill steaks and potatoes, or just order in a pizza, open a bottle of tasty wine, and light lots of candles. Afterwards cuddle up on the sofa and watch a movie over a pint of decadent ice cream with a shared spoon. What could be better? Remember, V-Day doesn't have to be fancy.
- Go Sweet 'n' Sexy - Sure, buy her lingerie. Most women will love it. But stick with sweet little somethings and avoid the satin cheesy stuff. You can't miss with soft cotton chemises, a few pairs of Hanky Panky panties, or a sexy silk robe.
- Book 'Em - Books are always a great give -- personal, thoughtful, and classy. Inscribe a sweet note in it, and you'll win someone's heart for sure.
Don't make the day a "Bling Thing." Even the slightest hint that you're expecting an engagement ring can make him run for cover. Unless you think it's time to get rid of him, avoid any ring talk.

Baby-face boy; World's Newest Dad
Freaky nails this isn't, but I have to admit - this blew me away just as much.
A 13 year old boy is now a dad.
That part was shocking enough (kinda) but when you see the kid, its even more shocking... he looks SO young.
They say he's 13, but I swear he looks like he's only 9. And she's only 15.
Their lives have changed so much, its crazy.
Good luck lil' dad. Good luck.

Woman loses freakishly long nails in crash
A woman in Utah is famous for her long fingernails... at least she USED to be.
Lee Redmond is listed in the Guinness Book of World Records for her long fingernails, but lost them in a car crash a couple days ago.
Admit it, that's just creepy and unnatural.
The woman hadn't cut her nails since the late 70s and they were more than 28 feet long (total). The longest nail was her right thumb at 2 feet, 11 inches.
That's a small child!
She's in the hospital and I hope she gets well, but maybe, just maybe this was a sign to cut your fingernails.

At least 49 dead in plane crash
Reports out of Buffalo, NY say a plane crashed killing 48 people on the plane, one person on the ground. The plane crashed into a home and erupted in flames.
Holy crap. This is beyond sad. The plane was just going from Newark, NJ to Buffalo, NY... a short trip.
This was not one of the "I'm going overseas, lets say good-bye in case something happens" kind of flights. Its like flying from Charlotte to Raleigh, if even that.
To the people on Continental Flight 3407, their friends and families... prayers.
Too bad this wasn't another "Miracle on the Hudson" moment.

Three cheers for the Panthers!
Finally, some really good news.
We didn’t win the Division playoffs, Pep doesn’t want to play with us anymore, and Jordan Gross may or may not be with the team much longer… but hey – Jerry Richardson has a new heart and is FINALLY out of the hospital.
monitored by doctors… probably for the next three and six months.
Good Luck Big Jerry!

Are you ready for some football?!?
Like I mentioned in the last post - the ACC released its team schedules for the '09 Season.
Big happenings already in play.
First - the Miami/FSU rivalry is coming back to Labor Day Monday, this year in Tallahassee.
The ACC Championship Game will be played on Dec. 5 in Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Fla. Can't wait until that thing moves to Charlotte!
Another big side note -- there are already six Thursday Night ESPN appearances slated for the ACC.
I don't know how I feel about Thursday night games. As a spectator, I love them. When my team is playing, I hate them. Especially on a home game, when I could be there, but since its on Thursday, you can't because of work.
If you want to look at all the ACC teams' schedule, there is a link below.

Duke student develops meningitis while camping out for UNC game
I'm not even going to try to make fun of this in any way, shape, or form.
This is not funny, its damn scary.
Duke student develops meningitis while camping out for UNC game (from USA Today).
While I understand why students want to live in Krzyzewskiville, the thrill of being there, getting those tickets and going to that game. Thats all understandable - its just scary.
Honestly, I'm so glad they caught this early and the student is going to be okay. Meningitis is nothing to play around with.
Let's hope things get better for students in Krzyzewskiville.

A statement from the school says people who were in close contact with the student, including her roommate and tent mates, began receiving antibiotic treatment on Wednesday.Also good news.

Coach K: 'We’re not as good as they are right now. They’re better than us'
The man said it... after a 101-87 beating - Coach K told the world the North Carolina Tar Heels are better than the Duke Blue Devils.
Now... to be fair, that's only part of the quote. Here's the whole thing:
So what's this "last Wednesday" he's referring to? That's the Blue Devil's 47-74 loss to the ACC's Clemson Tigers.
In that loss, Coach K admitted "It was 40 minutes of them dominating, they just kicked our butts."
So is this a trend - or just a really bad week for the Duke b-ball team? Are the Blue Devils on the way down?
Now... to be fair, that's only part of the quote. Here's the whole thing:
"...we’re not as good as they are right now. They’re better than us, and sometimes a team that’s better doesn’t play as well as that, but they played that way too. It’s going to be difficult to beat them. We just have to keep getting better. We’ve come a long away from last Wednesday and we just have to keep improving.”

"A house divided against itself cannot stand.''
Do you know this phrase?
If not, you should. It's from President Abraham Lincoln's "A House Divided" speech. Today, is Lincoln's 200th birthday.
February 12, 1809, a man was born who would change our nation forever. Things are still not perfect 200 years later, but you have to admit - things are a LOT better.
I've always been fascinated with Lincoln's life... and death.
Wednesday, there was an event at the newly remodeled Ford Theatre. That place is very cool. Just being there, knowing what happened - that you are in a place of history. Very powerful.
Today - no matter what your race, age or sex - I hope you take time out and think about the impact this man had - and how his life has shaped yours - 200 years later.

Tonight a NC rivalry hits center stage
Terrible T and the UNC Tar Heels take on Duke and the Cameron Crazies in Durham.
Even for non-fans of basketball and non-fans of the Dookies and Tar Holes, this is an exciting night. Personally, I don't care for either team, but will I watch? Yes.
Why? It's one of the best rivalries in all of college basketball. If this was football, I wouldn't waste my time with them, but they actually do WELL with basketball.
T. Hansbrough is kind of a douche bag, but he brings intensity to the court. Greg Paulus is kinda short and reminds me of a young Muggsy Bogues. Yes, we all know that Kyle Singler is the big name at Duke, but Paulus just makes me laugh.
Either way, I'll be watching the game.
Who will I pull for? Depends on which crowd I'm nearest when I'm watching the game. Nah, I'm kidding. I have my hopes, I'll just keep them to myself.

Oops, he did it again
For the second year in a row, QB Brett Favre is saying "Adios" to the sport of football.
But is it really for good this time?
Last time, I was shocked and mad -- saying "Nooo... come back." This time, I just don't care. You didn't have a good year, boo-hoo. If I gave up every time I had a bad day... and I don't make even close to an iota of what he makes.
You Mister Favre, are no longer my favorite part of "Something About Mary." I wish you well in your Lee jeans commercials, but I'm done.
Maybe you, Pep and Michael Phelps should meet up, have a party and talk about how you all crushed dreams within the first weeks of 2009. That should be fun.

Atheists help you waste time
Remember those Atheists ads on London buses that had everyone up in arms a couple weeks ago?
Now you can waste time online, making your own controversial messages on the bus. It's kinda like those church signs that you can write your own messages in.
I did a couple... first my anti-Phelps bus.
Now one for fun about my blog...
Now for you... if you want to waste time, feel free to click the pic below and have at it.
Just don't get fired for wasting company time - the economy sucks.

Phelps is a pothead, 8 others charged.
Michael Phelps is once again making national headlines... kinda.
The USA Today is quoting WIS in Columbia - which says eight people were arrested because of the pot picture.
You know which picture...
Yup, that one.
Apparently, one of the douchebags was caught trying to sell the bong on eBay for $100K. What an idiot. Of course, the PIO in Columbia says they don't know where the reporter got that information. LOL.
Denial... not just a river.
One of the only people not charged in the case... Michael Phelps, himself.
Fair? Probably not, but neither is life.
PS - I'm not jumping on the "Michael Phelps is bad" bandwagon. I never liked him.

Fox News has video of a man literally less than a split second from being smashed like a bug.
He lost a shoe, but he's lucky he didn't lose more.

Media and honoring fallen troops
A move by Defense Secretary Robert Gates today could mean more pictures in the public of fallen soldiers returning home.
That means you could start seeing more pictures like this.
For a while, a policy at the Pentagon banned media from taking pictures of flag-draped coffins. President Obama announced yesterday he wanted to review the ban.
Personally, I think the pictures should be allowed. Those men and women are serving their country overseas. If they pay the ultimate price for our freedom, they should at least be able to be honored when they come home.
People need to know about our troops dying overseas.

"If the needs of the families can be met, and the privacy concerns can be addressed, the more honor we can accord these fallen heroes, the better," Gates told reporters at a Pentagon news conference Tuesday. "So I'm pretty open to whatever the results of this review may be."Gates says he asked for the ban to be reviewed a year ago, but that didn't happen.

Katherine Heigl, T.R. Knight Leaving Grey's Anatomy
According to reports, two "Grey's Anatomy" stars are hitting the road.
Katherine Heigl and T.R. Knight are reportedly leaving the show by the end of the season.
That's like what, the four or fifth star to leave the show? Is it just me, or is everyone else getting a "Three's Company" flashback? If the show keeps losing characters, the only one left is going to be whats-her-name (title character).
I'll admit, I've only seen maybe one or two full episodes and have no clue what is going on with the show. I've heard rumors of sex with ghosts and all that. Maybe the writers should quit, not the actors.
Then again... maybe it's time for the show itself to flatline.

Stimulate my economy!
So the back and forth battle over the stimulus plan is still in play.
Three moderate Republicans in the Senate just jumped the aisle and helped pass a $838 billion dollar plan. First it was $900 billion, then $780 billion... I can't keep it all straight.
Now the bill is on its way to "difficult House-Senate negotiations."
Looks like the bill will probably get cut more, I just hope something gets passed soon. While they are fighting over if that dog park is really needed in Podunk or if kids really need school nutrition, people are losing their jobs and falling into huge debt.
Can someone just make this economy work? Please?

Peace out Mayor Pat!
Charlotte Mayor John Lassiter?
We may have to get used to saying it. Not that there is anything wrong with the man, it just doesn't have the same ring as Mayor Pat.
Pat McCrory has been in office for as long as I can remember (well, not really, but it has been a LONG time). He's done some great things, faced some big controversy and apparently has some big future plans.
Governor Bev and her lies won't keep him down for long. Charlotte's had him for a good many years, now he's going to spread his wings and try to help more people.
Good luck to you Mayor Pat - we're gonna miss you.
PS - change your hair. It kinda looks like John "I'm so pretty" Edwards.

Jerry gets new heart, Pep breaks them
Oh Carolina Panthers - how I love to loathe you and loathe my love for you.
In the past couple weeks, I've been a rollercoaster of emotions. First, we find out Jerry Richardson (owner) needs a new heart. Six weeks later, he's got one and recovering well.
That's the good... now for the bad.
Julius Peppers -- we may be parting ways on February 19th. But unlike most break ups, its not me - it IS you.
Why Pep, Why? Why do you want to leave us in our time of need. We made it to the Division Playoffs this year. But its not good enough for you. You want to be in a 3-4 defense, and the Panthers run a 4-3 defense.
You make me sad Pep... very sad.
If you have to go with your franchise tag, can you at least make sure we get something grateful in the trade? I'm sorry, was that too soon?
Hope you enjoyed Hawaii...
Speaking of which, the Pro Bowl. I missed it -- but check out the play in the 4th quarter... you can skip to 2:18 on the video.
We kinda have Kerry Collins to thank for that. Who knew Collins would be worth something someday?
Oh well...

Double your pleasure, double the pain?
Noo... say it ain't so!
Looks like a bad night and a right hook (at least, I'm assuming) has changed Chris Brown's squeaky clean image into a Doublemint nightmare.
According to a police report (which I haven't seen, but trust published reports) Brown assaulted girlfriend Rihanna Sunday night pre-Grammys. He missed the award show and turned himself in to police.
Until last night - no reports of anything even remotely bad about Brown. No rivalries, no fights, no nothing.
I'm not a big supporter of women-beaters, but if this was really just a one time thing and he's not the kind -- I hope he gets his life back on track.
If he really did beat Rihanna, I hope she leaves him -- one time thing or not.
PS - Wrigley said Monday that it will be suspending its Chris Brown ad campaign for Doublemint gum. Guess we won't see that commercial anymore... okay -- once more for old times sake.

A-Rod on the Juice
You can always count on Sports Illustrated to call out the big shots when they've been lying.
Granted, its been like six years -- but A-Rod (Alex Rodriguez) got caught using the juice. While he was playing an Angel (for the Texas Rangers), apparently A-Rod decided to pump himself full of steroids.
He said - and I quote - “Back then it was a different culture,” Rodriguez said. “It was very loose. I was young. I was stupid. I was naive, and I wanted to prove to everyone that, you know, I was worth, you know—and being one of the greatest players of all time.”
Hmmm... sound like anyone else we know?

"I engaged in behavior which was regrettable and demonstrated bad judgement. I'm 23 years old and despite the successes I've had in the pool, I acted in a youthful and inappropriate way, not in a manner people have come to expect from me.Anyways. I never really liked A-Rod before.. and now he and Madonna can have little creepy babies together... pumped up on steroids.
- M. Phelps
