OOPS - HAD A BRAIN CRAMP!!!! FORGOT THIS PART

A note from Turnbaby:


Today is the second anniversary of this blog (Her's not mine! Go on over and wish her a Happy Bloggoversary HERE). And tonight joining me at 8 PM on TurnbabyTalks is the responsible party, Mr. VinnyBond (HEY THAT'S ME!) of Bond's Big Leather Couch and regular Ringmaster of the Chat at Doc Blogstein's Radio Happy Hour every Tuesday at 9 PM ET on BlogTalkRadio. I started blogging because he did and then it all snowballed from there ;-)

We are planning on an evening filled with talk of food--comfort food --- party food---tailgate food--- we'll even give out advice and recipes.

And I am certain he'll mention that his fantasy team whipped up on my fantasy team this past weekend (Now, would I do that? ;-0 ). But we still have a way to go on the season so no worries for my Sirens.

You can find us and listen and play in the chat by clicking that lovely button at the top of this post. You can CALL IN by dialing 646-716-8102. If you can't make it live you can always hear the archived shows by using the player in my sidebar.



Week #13 - Week 2 for Roger's Creative Photography Contest...click on the banner above if you want to learn more and enter or just feel like sliding around the Bloggosphere and checking out some really fantastic photos...


Click on the logo above to head over to The Teach's blog to see all the entries this week.

I have been scanning old slides and pictures and came across this photo, taken in St. Lucia in 1984. We were in the town of Soufriere, which is on the South-Western part of the island.

I spent 10 days there and it rained for almost 8 of them. I can tell you that my bar bill was even more than the hotel bill at the end of 10 days!

This traffic officer was out doing her job and her demeanor just caught my eye.

I posterized the picture to give it a more artistic feel.

I give you "Stop In The Name Of The Law".




Coming up this week on DR. BLOGSTEIN’S RADIO HAPPY HOUR:
(Live on Tuesday September 16 at 9PM ET and forever archived at
BlogTalkRadio.)

Andy Taylor, singer, songwriter and guitarist for Duran Duran during the band’s heyday in the 80’s sits down for an exclusive one on one with Dr. Blogstein.
Taylor, an original member of the biggest musical act to come out of the UK since The Beatles, tells all in his new autobiography Wild Boy: My Life in Duran Duran.
We’ll get all the backstage, behind the scenes dirt on Duran Duran’s rock and roll lifestyle during the decade of excess. We’ll get all the inside scoop on the sex, drugs, scandals and, of course, the music of Duran Duran.

Then, remaining in the 80’s time warp, novelist Matthew Wayne Selznick will join Dr. B and Dangerous Lee. Selznick is the author of Brave Men Run which has been described as “X-Men meets The Breakfast Club.” It was also the first work of original fiction with an initial simultaneous release in print, ebook and free podcast edition.

Also this week: George the Giant.
At 7-3, this gentle giant gained worldwide fame thanks to his appearance on America’s Got Talent (below).

We’ll find out how close he came to dying while rehearsing for the hit NBC show. Plus, you’ll never believe how tall his wife is!

All that, plus Vinny Bond drags his Big Leather Couch into the Radio Happy Hour Lounge to chat live with the listeners (man, a busy night for me!), Justin the Weatherman and we’ll take your calls at 646-652-4804.

Join us live every Tuesday night at 9PM ET. The Radio Happy Hour Lounge-a live, interactive chat room during show time! It’s the show within the show!

Funny Friday...

Yes, I know I promised a review of "Where The Light Is - John Mayer Live in Los Angeles" today, but to be honest, I have not given the CD a fair enough listen to make honest comments. I have listened to the first CD all the way through, but have not really had the opportunity to give CD 2 a real close listen.

Y'all know that I will not do something half way. So I ask your indulgence and let me spend the weekend, listening and making notes.



I will be Turnbaby's Guest on her BTR Show "Turnbaby Talks" on Sunday evening 8:00pm Eastern, 7:00pm Central, 6:00pm Mountain and 5:00pm Pacific...the rest of the world, well y'all are gonna have to figure that out!

The subject will be food---cooking, favorite food stories, and she has even threatened some Foodie QuidProQuo. I look forward to it. My last time on as a guest and not just a caller was the day before New Year's Eve when darlin' Nancy and I were sitting at her kitchen table.

Unfortunately, this time I will only be on the phone.

Check us out..bring your food stories and questions...I will tell all..well except the complete recipe for my GRAVY - I said gravy Mary!

bwahahahahahaahaha



For today..I received this clip from Cousin Joyce. This is a great clip from the hey-day of "The Tonight Show", when Johnny Carson was on target every single night and his guests were two drinks past DUI...

No hiding here...they did not put the booze in coffee cups (Well Bob Hope uses a beer stein it looks like)...and everyone had a cigarette going the whole time - as a matter of fact that fact is what makes this clip an instant classic..watch for it...




Y'all have a great weekend...hope to hear from you Sunday and I will be here Monday with the review...

We will give you a taste from the Mayer Album...this is "STOP THIS TRAIN"

ENJOY....
