Big Leather Couch

Satellite radio. Nope don’t have it…have wanted it, but, dang…no money.

Then the thought comes, well which would we select?

Sirius Radio with Howard Stern, the NFL, NASCAR, the NHL and the NBA?




Or would THE COUCH select XM Radio with Major League Baseball, the Grateful Dead, Oprah, and the PGA?

Decisions…decisions…decisions…

Well, now all of your decisions are made. On Monday Gary Parsons, Chairman of XM Radio and Mel Karmazin, CEO of Sirius Satellite Radio announced the two services would be merging.

Will the FCC, which has a rule against a satellite radio network buying another, allow this to happen? We wait with baited breath to see.

They haven’t decided what to call the new company but stated, during the announcement, that it would be a merger of equals.

If it does happen, do you get all the services for a new price point or will you still have to decide between Howard and Oprah…the NFL or MLB?

Oh the decisions we must make in our lives…


Britney shaved her head and ended up in the hospital where a spokesperson was quoted as saying she seemed “disturbed and distant, acting like she wasn’t there and was almost zombie-like.”

Ah good ole Brit… OK, all of you who think Walt Disney is rolling over in his grave over the insanity of Ms. Spears please move to the right side of the boat.

OMG, we’re gonna Tump!


LOL…Tump. Yesterday at lunch one of our co-workers introduced me to this word. It seems it is part of the lexicon of this general area. It was confirmed by three Memphians and someone who grew up in Alabama.

Tump is the combination of Tip and Dump…as in, if we all rush to the right side of the ship, we may tump it!

Y'all just gotta love the South!


The murder trial of producer Phil Spector will be televised ordered California Superior Court Judge Larry Paul Fidler. Think this member of the court is excited to have all those cameras focused on him?

Now to find a way to get sick and stay home. This should be almost as entertaining/sickening as the O.J. spectacle.

The hair alone is worth the video cameras! Is he hiding the revolver in there?


The five former members of the pop act Boyzone were spotted leaving the London based record offices of Universal,starting rumors of a reunion.

Ummmmmm… THE COUCH has no idea who these guys are ….we just thought the name was hysterical, and wondered when they broke up??? DOH!

Sound effect of young girls screaming…barf.


So tomorrow the public voting begins for American Idol.

THE COUCH will begin a weekly review, coming full circle from where we began last year at this time.

It might even be easier as we have no feelings for any of the contestants.

So, come back tomorrow, take a seat on THE COUCH and play MID-WEEK MUSICAL MEME and get a complete review of the 12 men of American Idol.
