My week....crap, I lost count, dodgeball experience
(Photo) Steve Yurkee is offering custom dodgeball cards. Some of you may have seen the Pugs card that he made. He is offering to make cards of individual players for a fee. You can contact him at dfwgophoto@yahoo.com
It rained. I have pictures that I'll post but I can't access my magic place to put up the pictures right now. A few people got to play. James, Cody, and Kelly all played on different teams. Instead of my usual report, I'll post a few of the pictures I took.
These guys asked if I could get a picture of them in action for the dodgeball blog. Seeing as they're all nice, why the hell not?
It's serious stuff
Kicking ass, taking names, and smiling big while she does it... ouch.
This week whatever number it is WAP is JAMES FROM THE PUGS AND KELLY SUPERSTAR ALLSTAR TEAM! Why? He asked me that's why. James is a solid player that is good in clutch situations. If he would have waited a few weeks I'm sure he would have found his way to making it here on a full bracket of games. James will be performing at the Palm Beach Club on June 9th. If you're breathing you should go because they rule. If you don't go then you're a loser and shouldn't be allowed to be in the same room as Sir James. James will still be doing dodgeball that night and then running over to the Palm Beach Club in Deep Ellum. Why can't you? What are ya... a retarded? Do it. Congratulations James, you are a WAP.

*"El Distorto De Melodica"@ 11:48*
Kelly remembers that she left something in her car for Eric. It's dodgeball day and Kelly assures us that it's suppose to thunderstorm from 4-7 and then again start again at midnight. Pugs wonders if everyone survived the horrible storms last night. Kelly is joyful that her satellite never went out. Pugs learned that even thunderstorms refuse to travel all the way to Frisco. Pugs' dog was freaking out because of the storm. He claims that from his house he can see all of downtown Dallas, he admits that it's just North Dallas but he pretends that it's downtown. He saw the city just getting punished by the storm. Sybil went to Blockbuster and the power went out. The 18 year old punk manager forced everyone into the utility closet. Pugs reminds us that every manager had to learn the standard operating procedures for situations like this at Blockbuster University. Nobody was allowed to leave. Sybil asked if she could just leave and risk it but, was told that she wasn't allowed to leave because of store policy. Kelly finds it ridiculous that they can hold you in a blockbuster closer. She's quite sure that they aren't deputized. Pugs refuses to place his safety in the hands of a 18 year old film geek. Pugs was taught to respect people in uniform but he's sure that his mother didn't mean for people in a blockbuster uniform. Eric reminds us that it's good to get in the good graces with the people at Blockbuster because they can wipe your charges clean. Kelly wonders when the Blockbuster people knew it that the danger had passed. Sybil says that after 20 minutes, they asked for everyone's name. Sybil asked why they needed her name and was told that it was just store policy. Kelly explains that it's her policy not to throw her real name out to strangers. They used a stylus on a palm pilot to record everyone's name and it was taking forever. Sybil asked if she could just write her name down and the jerkass told her "I don't have a pen and a paper, babe". Sybil replied to the jerkass, "well, I do, babe". Pugs claims that the thunderstorms here are much more intense than the ones back home. J.B. calls in to say that the tornado turned his parents' house into a convertible. Pugs loves how the news puts up the path of the tornado so that you know what time to expect death. Joshua calls in to complain that he still doesn't have power and Eric points out that Sybil is without power still too. Pugs and Kelly discuss safety procedures. Pugs compares the storm to "Close encounters of the Third Kind" and admits that he was hypnotized into watching it outside. Kelly grilled dinner last night and Pugs wonders if Tyson had her try on her new tin foil/wire hanger hat. Scott calls in to ask if we really need 30 minutes of news coverage to be told that it's raining. Kelly wonders why they can't just use the news scroll at the bottom and Pugs would to inform the local channels that he has a window that informs him what happens outside. Eric teaches us that the storm went against the prevailing winds and engulfed all of the metroplex at one time. Pugs noticed that the tornados' paths were going backward. He devised a new storm safety procedure last night. He's going to get a motorcycle helmet and sit in his car with a comforter over himself. He figures that if his car gets tossed around, he has a decent chance for survival. Kelly is under the impression that she's suppose to get in her bathtub with a mattress over her. Pugs wonders if she'd use a metal box if she had one. Kelly thinks that retarded during an electrical storm. She points out that they tell you to get out of your car during a tornado. Eric explains that you're suppose to get in the inner most part of your house. Pugs wants a confession that we're just screwed because we don't have basements here. Mike calls in to remind Pugs that cars are filled with gas and that they can easily blow up if it gets thrown. Pugs tells us that he's going to have to drain his tank and get a flame retardant suit.
didn't get the time

Pugs claims that Australia is the new France. He informs us that we have to start hating Australians now too. Kelly wants to know if we can make exceptions for the Australians they already know like Wayne. Pugs questions if Wayne is truly Australian or if he's just a New Zealander pretending to be Australian. Pugs points out that Bush always seems like he's trying to scare us and Kelly reminds him that his approval ratings probably go up when everyone is scared. Pugs thinks that all the fear that everyone is floating around is desensitizing us now. Pugs refuses to change the way he's living just because we're suppose to be on high-alert. Kelly doesn't change anything that she's doing but she does worry about it. Pugs believes that it's just entertaining now. Kelly is scared of the missing propane trucks in San Antonio right now. Kelly reminds us that the media scares us out of our minds. Pugs reads the headline, "Missing Propane Trucks in San Antonio, Texas Causes Concern". Kelly is concerned that her son isn't receiving a good education in public school but, not to the point to where she would pull him out. Pugs reads the story... two propane trucks were stolen over the holiday weekend. Officials say that they don't suspect that terrorism was involved but, they can't rule that option out.... Pugs says that we should know how many trucks were stolen since September 11 and how often they get stolen. Pugs understands if it was gasoline it would probably be sold off so that people could buy cheaper gas. Where they're from that's a mob thing but he wonders what propane is used for. Kelly points out that Cody has propane in his home for heat. Pugs reads two different comments on the missing trucks. The police chief says "that his department doesn't believe that terrorist were involved but since Sept. 11, it can't be overlooked" Pugs thinks that is a very downplayed statement. The head of the F.B.I. says "we are very very concerned about the whereabouts of these missing trucks". Pugs comments on how these two comments are sending mixed messages. Pugs wonders if people are immune to all these fears. Paul calls in to say that he's been in local and federal law enforcement and lets us know that this happens all the time. They rob these trucks and send them down to Mexico. Pugs reads a comment that supports what Paul is saying... "the demand for propane is very high right now in Mexico and these thieves may have been filling an order."... Pugs wonders how they got a big propane truck across the border and Kelly reminds us of the big hassle it is to smuggle coke in from Mexico. Paul says that since NAFTA there is so much traffic and you just hope they don't notice you. Brandon calls in to let us know that there is nothing to keep us from driving from the US to Mexico. The problem is driving from Mexico back. Pugs points out that nobody has answered his question, "are we suppose to be scared".

Pugs and Kelly's Super Fun Memorial Weekend Time!
*"El Distorto de Melodica" @ 11:50*
Pugs admits that he had a wild weekend and Kelly warns him that Gavin told them to rest up. Pugs thinks that a shotgun blast to the face would have been much more relaxing. Kelly chokes on ice while telling us that she is splitting up the good teams from the bad teams at dodgeball. She fears that some of the worse teams, Fallopian swim team, will stop showing up if they continue to suck. Kelly really wants Drinklocal to come back because they;re fun. Pugs remembers that they got beat by them which prompts Kelly to explain why that's so pathetic. Drinklocal's team consist of a male hair dresser, bubble machine owners, guys with multi-colored hair, girls in cheerleaders, and everywhere they go looks like it could be a parade of fun. They still managed to beat the show team though. Saturday was Kryta's party at Sybil's house and Pugs calls it dreadful. Kelly disagrees and lets Pugs know that her kids called it the best party ever. Pugs thinks that the fact that her kids thought it was great should be enough to know that he hated it. Pugs brings up the little redneck neighbor kid that kept jumping off the roof over the powerline into the pool. He also calls Sybil a party Nazi because she yelled at her sister and her mom. Sybil explains that Krysta invited somebody that Sybil intentionally didn't invite. Kelly was complaining about the powerline over the pool and Sybil assured her that Drago thinks that it's probably just a telephone line. Pugs dared Declan to jump off the roof like the other kid was but Declan just walked away from him. Kelly believes that the other kid was trying to murder her son because he would play this game to see how far he could drag Declan down with his floaties on. Pugs wonders why Tyson called him looking for Kelly that night. Kelly explains that she left her phone in the other room and popped an ambien. She was awoken to a D-12 song and read a text message that said "You are the most inconsiderate girlfriend ever"... that's must be hard to type into a phone.... Tyson called Pugs at 2 am and Pugs was freaking out. He considered telling him that she went home with some guy from the party and Kelly says that there are a couple of guys that would have bothered him greatly. Pugs heard Gavin tell a girl that he was interested in, "Nice to meet ya mam!" Pugs heard that line worked so and applauds Gavin.

Pugs wonders if they just got bitch slapped by Gavin. Kelly doesn't think so but she was looking at the picture that was the center of his fury on the computer when he stormed in there. Sybil made a copy of a picture of Gavin and put it on Jeff's door. She wanted to leave a caption that said "you shouldn't have left so early". Kelly doesn't see why he'd be mad. Pugs got accused of being drunk because he said the "T" word on stage. He only said it because all of the fans were demanding to see Kelly's "T" and points out that Vince Neil had flashing stripper lesbians making out on stage. Kelly thinks that Pugs did that thing he does when he's nervous, talk. The only word she got to say onstage is "kaleidoscope". Kelly apologizes for the "T" incident but they never started the chant. Aaron had another limo driver drive Pugs' group home because he got wasted. He claimed that the sun really effed him up. Pugs thinks that's almost as funny as Tyson in a little swim vest jet skiing. Kelly was worried that the little portable chairs might have broke under Tyson's 300 + pound weight. Kelly informs us that Mexican landscapers don't celebrate memorial day. Monday was the first day that she got to sleep in for a while and she was awoken at 7 AM by the lovely sounds of chainsaws. She went outside to yell and they landscapers apologized and finished up quickly. Pugs and Kelly wonder why landscapers work so early and Eric explains them about the extreme heat in Texas. Kelly went boating with Pugs on Wayne's boat. Now... KELLY WANTS TO BE A BOAT PERSON! Kelly wants to figure out how she can afford a jet ski. Pugs remembers how she mocked him for wanting one. Pugs clarifies that he had a great weekend. He was only in a bit of a strange mind frame because he came across his wedding tape and watched it. He wanted to pull audio from it so he brought it to the office and Sybil confirms that he only made it two seconds before he demanded to shut it off. Pugs reminds us that he's not depressed over the ex-wife. He's just upset that his marriage was a failure.

Kelly wonders how I'm doing on getting caught up on the blogs. Pugs lets us know that Kelly's brother and his mother are quite upset with me for not being up to date on the blogs. Kelly thinks that I'm just playing hard to get with Pugs' mom. Pugs says that their both adults and that he wishes us the best. Kelly reminds us that I'm barely an adult... I read at a 30 year old level, you elitist.... Tommy Habib joins us. He was behind the show "Cheaters" and is promoting for his new show "Stag". Stag is a show where they tape bachelor/bachelorette parties to see the seedy side of it all. Pugs explains that women parties are more debauched because they are trying to live up to the myth a the mens' horrible roman orgy. Kelly lets us know that her party wasn't over the top and Tommy seems to have a hard time believing that. She thinks that women strip clubs only exist because of men clubs. Kelly believes that women are touchy with the dancers because they think that the men are doing that with the women. Pugs claims that the women are complete wrong with their belief about what men do. Kelly thinks that the men are having a slightly more debauched time then they let out. Tommy says that these aren't your ma & pops' bachelor parties. Pugs thinks male strippers are more into receiving sex acts because, they're men. Kelly lets us know that she won't let her boyfriend receive a lap dance. Tommy explains that the premise of the show is show the tape of the party to the person that they intend to marry and give them a chance to forgive and forget, or get even. If they choose to forgive then they will pay for their honey moon. IF they choose to get even, they pay for their debauched party.

SYBILIZATION AS WE KNOW IT!
1. In Brockton, Mass, Authorties uncovered a JR. High prostitution ring, a mildly retarded 13 year old girl was pimped out by her friend for 5-30 dollars per trick.
Pugs comments that a retarded girl is worth much more than that on the street and Kelly believes that kids obviously have no real concept of money. Sybil does a mentally handicapped impression... for shame... Sybil likes how the story takes place right outside of Boston because, she can insert a "wicked retarded" joke.
2. In Port Ritchie, Florida, an 81 year old man decided to reverse so that he could pull up closer to the super market to pick up his wife. He confused the gas with the brake and ended up in a restaurant, killing an elderly woman.
Pugs snorts and wonders if he was in a members only jacket. Kelly waxes about her favorite Golden Girls moments.
3. A boat party in Long Island was interrupted when an arm fell out of the sky onto the boat
Kelly points out that in the harbor, they're used to the body parts floating up to them. Pug: "all hands on deck". Kelly thinks that would be something Wayne would do as a prank.
4. Baby Jessica graduated from High School.
Pugs thinks that she's not awful looking and Kelly wonders if he's saying that because he's afraid that her father might be listening again. Pugs saw a picture of her a few months ago and told her "get back in the well, freak!". Her father called in shortly after that.

My 4th anniversary party fun time...
Joe Pool Lake has never seen a hotter night than May 30, 2004. The Live 105.3 4th Anniversary party was rocking. The crowd was filled with enthusiastic fans that were all there to support their favorite radio station. I was also very pleased to find that all the rowdy fans were quite polite. Everyone was rocking out to their favorite tunes, while still being courteous.
I ventured around a bit and found myself staring in amazement at the bungie jumping. For a split second, the lion inside roared and I began to contemplate the incredible adrenaline rush that I would receive. I then came to my senses and realized that I'm gutless. I could receive a similar rush just by watching other people spit in the face of death.... "HAHA DEATH! I'm falling to my doom.... oh wait, I got a rubber band... kiss my ass jerkass!".... The rock climbing looked fun but by the time I got there I was a bit shaky from watching everybody cheat death. So instead of climbing, I just imagined climbing it.... I did it fast and when I got to the top, the trumpets blared and everyone knew I was a winner.
I checked out Crossing Ellum's set on the side stage. It was completely kick ass. They're a great live act and were obviously having a great time.
Clo kicked things off with a bitching rendition of the Star Spangled Banner that would make Hendrix proud.
Little Morphine Annie opened. They have killer riffs that really seemed to entrance the crowd. Their charismatic lead singer kept us all guessing with where she was taking us next.
Valerie came out to introduce Back in Black and had the crowd begging for more. It's always fun for me to hear my favorite radio personalities say words they don't normally get to say. Valerie is fun to watch.
Sam and the promotions team came out to throw T-shirts into the crowd. I caught one with little effort because I'm a superior-bad ass athlete. I turned around to give it to the nice family behind me because I'm a superior-bad ass nice guy. Sybil scrapped with some fans over one on the ground and rose victorious. She then gave it to the closest guy to her. You have to love a woman that will fight to the death for a shirt just for the love of the sport.
Back in Black, AC/DC tribute band, came out and rocked everyone to the soul. I might be so inclined to say that Back in Black plays AC/DC tunes better than AC/DC does. The crowd went insane when Russ Martin came out to play "Highway to Hell". He was wielding the coolest damn guitar I've seen in a long time.
Sybil and Eric came out with giant microphones. Sybil called Eric out for using his real mic and then proceeded to use hers. The crowd loved them. They beat each other to death while fighting over who gets to introduce Pugs and Kelly. Sybil won after utilizing the feared nut shot. They then threw their giant microphones into the crowd. I could have caught the one that Sybil threw but because I was already riding on the high of my great T-shirt catching victory, I let the kids have it.
Pugs and Kelly came out to a chant of "show your t**'s". Pugs never showed them... that tease.... The shirt guys came back out to chunk them into the crowd. Cody joined them with a giant sling shot and I think he had a minor malfunction. One of the shirts just sort of trickled down into the crowd right in front of him. The important thing is that he tried. Pugs and Kelly then introduced Gavin who came out to inform us that we were awesome. Russ Martin ninja-ed his way onto the stage and tried to pants Gavin but his attempt was unsuccessful. Pugs and Kelly got to introduce Living Colour.
Living Colour brought "it". I'm not quite sure what "it" is but "it" was brought. "It" was awesome. Corey Glover was spotted in the VIP hiding a turkey leg behind his back. He kept taking bites when he thought nobody was looking. It is my belief that "it" was a chemical reaction that came from Corey going against his vegetarian ways and feasting on flesh.
Dan and Tasos came out to introduce JD Ryan. JD, who I believe is suppose to be sober, didn't seem sober. He might have been sober but, he definitely had some slurrage in his speech. I get accused of being drunk when I'm not so I'm choosing to believe that he was sober.
Vince Neil rocked your ass, he rocked my ass, he rocked your mother's ass and he rocked your future grandkid's ass. He was in full effect. The crazy dancing girls came out on stage with him and flashed everyone. I tried to use my photographic memory to remember it all... I did, hmmmmm yeah.
In retrospect, the concert had everything that you could ask for. The beer kept us fueled, the sun warmed our skin, the boobies raced our hearts, the tunes made us dance around like a bunch of jack asses, and the mosquitoes ate me. Good times were had by all and this talk radio fan was proud to be a part of it.
