Money...

Sparks Of Insanity By Vinny "Bond" Marini Tuesday, August 21, 2007 23 Of Your Sparks

Our "friends" at Comcast decided to renew our Internet around 8:45PM tonight...

Gosh, we love you Comcast

snicker


Our friend Tiggerprr tagged us with a brand new meme and we have taken the challenge. It is funny, though that I wonder if a few zeros were dropped of on the amount you are given because some of the questions would require wayyyyyyyyy more than the $50,000.00 offered.

OK, here it is.... and awayyyyyy we go....



A philanthropist awards you $50,000 with the stipulation that you may use half of it for yourself and the other half you must use for the benefit of others. By “benefit of others” it can mean anything really, buying a gift for a family member or donating to a charity.

A. How do you spend the money on yourself?
This one is real simple. Half would go to Matt for college and the other half would go to pay off the debt that was accumulated during my time out of work.

B. How do you use the money for others? Please be detailed, so if you say “give X dollars to charity, let us know what charity and why you select that one.
The other half would go to Gay Men'sHealth Crisis. GMHC offers an array of programs and services to thousands of men, women, and children every year. Though some of our services are for registered clients only, there are many workshops and programs available to the general public regardless of HIV status, sexual orientation, or gender. We have had a number of friends and one family member who have been affected by this horrid disease.

C. If you were to spend part of your money to have a performer do a show for you, who would it be and why?
This is where it gets funny for me..part of my half the money...not enough to have many artists perform, but if it were possible, we would love to have a private concert for our special friends with this gray haired guy as the performer...yup....ME! No, kidding...Taylor Hicks...

D. If you were to use it on a new vehicle for yourself, what kind?
Hummmm...would like a Mustang convertible we guess...once again..not sure there would be enough for a Hyundai...LOL

E. If you spent part of it to go to a “fantasy” camp, what type would you choose?
We loved Tiggerprr's answer about a sun and pina colada fantasy camp...now that would be HAWT...but not sure that exists, so the NY Yankee Fantasy Camp would be way cool too...

F. If you were to use it to buy season tickets for a sports team, what team would it be?
Gee, let's think about this for like a milli-second or less...yup...the Ballpark In The Bronx baBY!

G. If you were to use it to go on a cruise (assuming you like cruises) where would you cruise to?
Would love to do the Mediterranean, and get to see Italy and Sicily and Greece.

H. If you were to use it to go to NYC to see a show (or shows) what would you see?
Oh man...We would go in march and see as many of the 15 nights the Allman brothers spend at the Beacon Theatre.

I. Totally off subject (but since Fall is coming) what is your favorite carnival food (I was watching “Big” while writing this and saw them at the carnival)?
Cotton Candy! Pure sugar and air....gimme gimme gimme...yummers....



We now have to tag some people (is there a number?)...hang on a second...we need to run back to Tiggerprrs and find out...hand loose a minute....dang girl, she picked 7 people...we had 6 in mind...

OK, here we go.... DANA, JULIE, MO, THE 108, THE QUEEN OF MEME'S - MIMI, ANNDI and COCO

Hope all y'all enjoy it and have some fun...



What else would be more fitting then PINK FLOYD....



"Money" is the sixth track from Pink Floyd's 1973 album, "The Dark Side of the Moon". It is the only song on the album to hit the top 20 in the United States charts. On the original LP, it opened the second side of the album. It was written by Roger Waters.

Personally, we saw them twice. First at Stony Brook University in 1970 during the "Ummagumma / Atom Heart Mother" Tour (their real melodic psychedelic phase), and then in 1973 at Madison Square Garden for the "Dark Side Of The Moon" Tour. Both incredible concerts...



BLOGTALK RADIO UPDATE:

Dr. Blogstein and Jane will have a real interview with a virtual celebrity.

Jon "NEVERDIE" Jacobs is a real personality in the Entropia Universe, which is a virtual world. Stuff Magazine listed him in their "Top 30 Under 30" list.

He has become a real millionaire by purchasing an asteroid in the Entropia Universe in 2005 for $100,000 and building a nightclub, Club NEVERDIE on said ateroid. The club is now the #1 virtual destination hot spot and brings in an average income of $20,000 per month for him!

If you're confused, join the club but we'll get to the bottom of it!

Also, we'll get an update from embattled "Bestest" blogger Bobby Griffin who faced allegations of fraud on our April 4th edition of the Radio Happy Hour. He was booked last week but was bumped due to the Walid Shoebat segment running late.

All that, plus we'll discuss the Radio Happy Hour's appearance in the New York Post with Justin the Weatherman, we'll hear from Vinny Bond on his couch and we'll take your phone calls at 646-652-4804.

Join us live every Tuesday night at 9PM ET . And if you miss us then, we're ALWAYS ON at www.DrBlogstein.com.

"WEIRD"

Well, Tigerprr tagged me for this meme, and I am supposed to tag 6 people after doing it.

I haven't decided if I am going to tag anyone due to the holidays coming up, but I could change my mind.

But before we get to that...

Saturday we were honored to sit with Morgen and answer his Seven Silly questions.

During our chat, it was announced that there would be a casting call today here on THE COUCH.

We are casting for the part of Sticky Sweetness for the next Bond movie, "STUCK ON YOU", in which Bond battles arch-criminal Otto Man.

SO, if you would like to audition, in the comment section please leave what would be your "signature line." Having a picture will not hurt your chances...

Now.. onto the weird me...

Weird
By Hanson
BestAudioCodes.com

Here are the rules:

The Rules:

Each player of this game starts with the “6 weird things about you”. People who get tagged need to write a blog of their own 6 weird things as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don’t forget to leave a comment that says “you are tagged” in their comments and tell them to read your blog.

OK, this is NOT easy...

1) When I had a freezer in the basement, after I went to the store and packaged everything, I would make a list of all the items in the freezer and note what was in each package. When I would cook something I would cross the item off the list.
2) I have collected the covers of Rolling Stone Magazine since 1973 or so. Now I do not have every cover, as when I moved I missed issues here and there, I think I have 875. They are in a trunk on occasionally I will pull them out and look. At one point I kept the entire issue, but that took up too much room.
3) All of my music is categorized. The albums are in my own dewey-decimal system. Each band has a main number and each album is then numbered .1 ; .2 ; .3 etc. My singles are alphabetical by "A" song side. Cassettes are numbered and cataloged, CD's are by type of music.
4) I need sounds at all time. I hate silence. The TV or stereo is always on and I need to fall asleep with the TV on.
5) I have a total fear of needles. HATE THEM! I can not even watch when blood is being taken.

THIS IS HARD
6) I very rarely leave the house without coming back at least once.. sometimes twp or three times. This might just have to do with my forgetfullness..

THIS WAS HARD.

OK.. holidays.. I am not tagging...

Thanks for sitting on THE COUCH, hope you enjoyed your stay.
