Holiday Cheer

Tuesday, November 22, 2005

I'm full of it.

Holiday cheer, that is.

Okay, I'm full of something else, too.

Our sister station, Q103.5, is going 24-hour Christmas music the day after Thanksgiving.
I

I got the privelege of putting the thing together, which involves staring at several computer screens for eight hours a day and sifting through 800 Christmas songs, trying to find the right mix of Amy Grant and Barry Manilow.

Then, I get to go home and try to find the most flammable Santa suit I can find online while contemplating climbing our 600-foot tower, lighting myself on fire and singing "I'm dreaming of a non-existent Christmas" as I plummet to the ground.

Seasons greetings,

Stooks

P.S. Was the long-awaited new post everything you hoped it could be?
P.P.S. I can't believe I just did the "P.S." thing. What a loser.
P.P.P.S. Whoops. I did it again.

Justin Carson's World Famous Cheese Dip

Wednesday, November 09, 2005

Disclaimer: The above photo does not include Justin Carson or Matt Stooks. No way in the world either one of us want to be confused with the douche in red.

1 can cream of chicken soup, ½ Cup sour cream, ¾ Cup On The Border salsa, 2 Cups Colby or Jack cheese, shredded. Mix together all ingredients in microwave-safe 1 ½ Qt. bowl. Microwave on high for 4 minutes. Remove and serve with On The Border tortilla chips.

We enjoyed a batch last night. Quite tasty, and it is in the running for the John Stossel Pick of the Week.

And no, he didn't rip it off the back of an On The Border chip bag.

The High Lady and her friends



The other day on Oprah, Kirstie Alley said "If you're 45 and you've never been married, you're a perv."

So we debated it on the show.

This morning, the High Lady called in with some of her friends. She was quite clever and high. Check it out.

***UPDATE***

The High Lady and her friends called back and sang me a song. Enjoy.

Federline Shakur

This guy's pathetic.

Is the hat in that picture supposed to imply that he is a fan of all of Major League Baseball instead of just one team?

I've been meaning to add this for the last week, but here's that clip of Kevin Federline rapping for his next CD.

Supposedly, his producer leaked the clip to the Internet.

You might guess that he was trying to build hype for the CD, but I'm thinking it's more of a "maybe if everyone hears this crap, they'll cancel production, and I'll be spared from having to bleed out the ears every night" type of thing.

Return of the High Lady

Friday, November 04, 2005

A while back, we did a bit on people who you want to ask "are you high?" Then, like clockwork, we got a high caller. You can relive that moment at this post.

Then, we started talking about my friend Chris (you can check out his hilarious site here) and how the dog he started watching died within two weeks.

The High Lady called in with a very odd story. We didn't put it on the air...simply too awkward.

But you can enjoy it, anyway, right here.

Enjoy.

Housecleaning

Wednesday, November 02, 2005

Okay, so you have one friend over.

You don't bother to pick anything up around the house. If you're good enough friends for them to come over solo, then you're comfortable leaving your house the way you usually do: messy.

Now, you have twenty friends over. You clean the place up a little.

That's this website.

Mattstooks.com's highest total hits came in September, with 8,769 hits for the month. Not too bad.

In October, that number quintupled (pretty sure that's a word) to a new record of 42,479 for the month.

Okay, I just found out hits mean nothing. But we had visits from 3,185 different computers, up from 704 in September. Good job team!

Apparently, America had an unfulfilled need for lame attempts at humor involving herpes commercials, Chris Matthews playing the voice of Kermit The Frog's brother Steve, and my standards for women being just above the villainous Mama Fratelli from The Goonies.

I'm no Randy Jackson

Tuesday, November 01, 2005

Justin, Intern Val, and myself had to, I mean, got to judge a kids Halloween costume contest last night.
After denying 100 five-and-under-year-olds any recognition for their adorable attire, I realized that even I would have trouble dogging on Scott Savol during his horrifying stint on American Idol. Click here to see my thoughts on Scott Savol. Click here to hear his ridiculous attempt at singing.

After looking into Scott's mousy little eyes, I'd have to pull a Paula and proclaim "you're all winners!"
