Stooks takes Manhattan

Not quite Muppet style, but probably as close as I’ll come.

I’ve moved to Manhattan, KS, USA.

“How could you leave a place like Lawrence for Manhattan?!!!,” my silly friend Tony would ask.

You see there is this weird thing that if you went to KU, you can’t ever live in Manhattan. And if you went to K-State, you can’t ever live in Lawrence. Both are stupid.

If you want to know how Manhattan is different from Lawrence, it’s pretty simple. Take away all the stoners in Lawrence and replace them with soldiers. “Boom!” As Madden would say. Or “Bam!” as Emeril would later say, even though it’s obvious he’s ripping off Madden, which is a sad practice in and of itself.

My new home is in the morning on The Big Kat 97.5 in Junction City, just outside of Manhattan. We have a giant “stick” as radio geeks call it. “Blowtorch” is another acceptable term. We have a good signal that goes beyond Salina and stops just west of Topeka. Sorry T-Towners and Lawrencians and Olatherand Parkians, you’ll have to keep it here to stay up to date on Stooksville.

The show returns from its hiatus Monday morning. I hope you can check it out sometime. And the show will always continue on mattstooks.com.

    Glad you have found a home, and no, Manhappiness isn’t too bad. And you can hang out with the coolest girl eva, Alicia. ;o)

  4. It takes a true man to stand above the controversy and give Manhatten a chance. We are all very proud to have you as our “little Stukie”

    PS-Jess, take it easy there. You made your point the first time i read it.

  5. Glad you are working again. However I’m worried that we will not be able to turn to you for the latest and greatest on the cast of Dawsons Creek. Will Stooks leave them behind as well. “I don’t wanta wait for my life to be over…”~Chris

  6. Chris-You pose yet another great question and also make me laugh outloud with the incorporation of the theme song. Does the wit ever end?

    T.K. Carter-Does anyone know who this is?
