Last one!

Froyo makes you dance?! Who knew!

Eat your Ice Cream!!

I picked on Hannah for not finishing her ice cream from the night before, now I'm waiting to see if she'll finish this time.

Megan loves Orange Leaf

Forget Disney World, THIS is Megan's new "Happy Place"

Orange Leaf time!

After yest another show, the cast and I enjoy some FROYO!

Cast night out!

Just another short clip of everyone sitting down to eat at Tony's after a show.

NOTE: Look how happy Megan is to be around them. : )

Amy eat a fry

Someone please explain to me what Amy's doing in this clip??!! Is all the ketchup really for only one fry?!

Back to the 80's cast clips (1)

Welcome to my "Back to the 80's" cast clips day!

Since my computer's dying it's either upload this stuff somewhere or lose it for good, so I've decided to go ahead and put out what I got.

That, plus I've have cast members reach out to me about some of the footage. So here goes!

I'll be posting this stuff all day long, so check in with us through out the day. I promise I'll have it all posted by today.

While Oz was sleeping

Took this last Sunday as he fell asleep during church. The kids covered him in church flyers like a homeless person. Pretty funny stuff until I showed Megan and she took them all off him...party pooper!

Ok folks, I'm done for today. Come back tomorrow to see a few random videos of the "Back to the 80's" cast if you're interested.

Jaiken clip

Just a short clip of my little nephew being goofy, more to follow...

Megan vs the Easter Bunny

Last week we went to the mall for Megan to look for a dress. We ran into the Easter Bunny (or as Megan will tell you "Not the REAL Easter Bunny") in JC Penny.

Thought you'd like to see this encounter.

I'll be posting more random videos later on today.

Calm in the storm

Ok... would you be THIS calm with a tornado coming at you?!?!

UNBELIEVABLE!

Gotta love it

Who says you can't mix humor into a spelling bee. I love how the judges don't get the joke!

Wait a minute...

Does this commercial look familiar?

FYI

Just to let ya'll know, I've just finished posting some clips of Megan's Dinner Theatre "Death by Disco" on YouTube.

I think one or two of these you've seen before, but I wanted to make them all available on YouTube for now.

C-ya!

Mini-Darth Vader deleted scenes

From my favorite commercial I've seen this year, here come some never-before-seen clips!!

Computer is down!!

Ok, I'm not saying this will happen but there is a chance.

My poor computer seems to be on it's last leg and it's getting harder and harder to make post on the blog.

I ordered a labby to replace this trash heap so hopefully it'll come in soon. I'm still going to continue making posts but just in case I all of the sudden stop... you'll know why.

Have a great day folks!

More from Memory Lane

Ok, let's continue what we started yesterday shall we? I found a few more good ones to share...



My Pet Monster. I never had one myself, but I remember this girl in our neighborhood did. The plastic chain could snap on and off. Pretty cool I remember.


What about this lame invention? The Pogo Ball. My parents bought us one and I remember it sucked as a toy. Did anyone else have one of these? Did YOU like it???



Now this one was cool! Roller Racer! You folks have GOT to have owned one of these back in the day right? Loved'em!



I'm cheating on this one. Not exactly a toy but the Snoopy Snow Cone machine always did bring a smile to my face whenever mom brought it out.

Well how'd I do? Any better than yesterday? Let me know!

Go Wings!

Get out your brooms! We just swept Arizona!

Now it's on to the next round!

Throwbacks

Ok, so recently I've been searching online for more 80's memories to bring back to you. I found a few things I want to post and see if it jogs any of your childhood memories as well.



How bout fisher price toys? Ever have any of these? We had a kazillion around the house growing up. In fact, I believe we had the exact toy shown above!



Or what about Glo Worms? You HAVE to remember these things right?



Ok... I KNOW you couldn't have forgotten about the ole Mickey Mouse Talking Phone! Remember? You could dial your favorite character up and hear them say the same thing to you over and over again!



Last one and I'll leave you alone for the day. This is a shot in the dark here, but does anyone outside of my family recall having these? Nerfuls!!! Actually, looking back it was a pretty weak toy but hey... did we really care back then?

Ok folks, I'll hit you up with a few more things tomorrow. Have anything to share about what you saw today? Leave a comment and let me know!

Cool

Yeah... I can do that.

It's only funny until someone gets hurt

This dude captures a truck wreck on camera that almost hit him. The funniest moment about this is when they let you hear the live audio (with bleeps) But listen to how he gives a response to his wife who asks him "Are you ok?"

"YES."

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

Hope everyone had a great weekend and is now ready to start a new week!!

Cleaning the cobra pit

How would you like to have this guy's job?!

PS- Happy Tax Day everybody! Better get to working on it before the Post Office closes!

If only everyone were this entertained...

Megan's child?!

I'm not sure who the father was but I'm pretty sure this is Megan's daughter...

How to calm a baby

I'm taking future parenting notes as we speak...

Baby vids

Has my blog been reduced to showing baby vids?

For the moment... yes.

Sing-a-long 4?!

So Megan has always loved my "Sing-a-long" videos and has wanted to be in one ever since she first saw them.

Well... I found this video and decided to give her, her very own "Sing-a-Long" special all by herself. : )

Megan!!!

So I'm storing all of our data into my gmail account for when we get our new computer I can just dump it all in.

But when looking thru it I found this... LOL

PS- I'm going to die for this...

Batter up!

Even Megan is ready for baseball season. : )

Today in baseball

I don't know what's better:

1) The Yankees losing to the Twins in 10 innings.
2) The "unbeatable" Red Sox starting off the season at 0-4 after a loss to the INDIANS!
3) The Mets whooping the Phillies 7-1.

You decide.

Mets Fan Joke

Yep, that about sums it up. : )

Rangers baseball

Ok, so I know Megan's the big Rangers fan here, but I can't get her to post on her team so I'm going to do it for her.

4-0 start. Swept the "World Series Predicted" RED SOX?!?

Dang, I wish they went by the team name "Mets"

Done

So I can successfully say that I never saw a single game of the Final Four this year and I didn't once miss it.

Baseball season started and that's really all I care about now. (except maybe for the Stanley Cup playoffs) This looks like the first of many years I'll go without watching a game.

Farewell basketball...

"Le Happy Meal"

Nothing like a French movie about McDonald's to end my posts for the week!

Food Folks and Fun

Who can forget the theme "Food Folks and Fun"?

McDLT

Does the main guy in this McDonalds commercial look familiar?... WITH HAIR?!

Throwing a few more McD's commercials at you later on today...

Am I really doing this again?

I've been debating all week if I should address this issue. When I look at the news I don't see as many "haters" as there were back in the season. Mostly, it's gone unnoticed or laughed away as being a joke. I'm kinda leaning to the latter.

So earlier this week four former Auburn players came out of the woodwork to claim Auburn paid them "bags full of money" to play for them. Well... let's look down the list shall we?

Stanley McClover (2003-2005) Claims he was offered cash money at functions and meetings at Auburn. Unfortunantly for him his high school coach was with him the entire time and says he never saw any of that happen:

"Nothing like that ever happened, I was at every meeting and I'm not sure why he would throw Dillard (the high school) under the bus like that. I was always in the football office when a coach came to the school to recruit and talk to players. They were never there speaking with a player without me being present. How Stanley said it puts doubts in my mind what he is saying is true, No one from our school can confirm what he is saying.I thought the interview would talk about Stanley as a role model, I'm disappointed with how it turned out."

As the late Paul harvey once said, "And now, the rest of the story..."

McClover left Auburn a year early for the NFL and was a wash out. He also claimed he took money from boosters when he was at LSU as well. Let's see, who was the coach back then....AH Nick Saban!!!

Saban denies McClover's claims and I tend to believe ole Nick over an NFL washout.

Troy Reddick (2002-2005) Claims to have been given money as well. Which surprises a few of his teammates. Former teammate Jeremy Ingle is a little shocked. Having known him for 7 years now he's curious as to why Troy never said anything about it until now. Could it have been the $20,000 HBO allegedly gave him for the interview? Hmmm...oh and by the way, Reddick was turned down for the GA assistants program at Auburn last year. but I'm sure there isn't any sour grapes over that right??

Chaz Ramsey. This one you're going to love. Teammate Lee Ziemba was his ROOMMATE all through college and had this to say:

“We were both scratching around for enough money to buy a $5 footlong at Subway, If he were getting thousands of dollars, you’re not going to keep that quiet. I would have heard about it, and he would have been spending so out of control that I would have noticed something.”

Being more heavily recruited by Auburn he found it odd he'd never been offered cash too. That goes the same for BETTER atheletes at Auburn who claimed no money was given to them either, names like Carnel Williams, Ronnie Brown and Jason Campbell to name a few.

Oh and when they and several other former Auburn players heard about the HBO upcoming special, they asked to be interviewed too. But when HBO found their claims would be that they never recieved payment, HBO decided not to interview them for the segment. (sniff, sniff, what's that smell??)

And then there is Raven Gray. Lee Ziemba had another great insight on Raven. Did you know this guy tried to sue Auburn over a back injury and lost?! Not able to get any money from the lawsuit he decided to make some from HBO instead I guess.

Are these four player stars? Nope. Were they in college? Another no. Did ANY of the former players provide names? No. Even HBO admits they have no proof of the statements made on their show.

Do college football players get paid? Yes, it happens at every school including Auburn I'm sure. But these bozo's?! I've got to wonder. It's like someone telling me USC boosters gave money to the back-up punter. Um, who cares.

Thankfully, most reporters out there know a stinker when they see it and the reports I've read go "light" on whether the accusations are true.

And so haters, once again we have to look through the fog of make believe and see the big picture.

Have a good weekend folks!

BIG NEWS!!!

Guess what folks?! I just got offered a promotion from Chase to RUN their Training Department in Juneau, Alaska!!!

This is big!! I was so shocked and surprised when the offer came! Not only is it a beautiful place to live (notice the picture above) but it's also TAX FREE!!! So in essence I'll be making a lot more money up there they I could here.

Sure it gets cold, but I'm sure the adventure of being somewhere new will keep me warm for many years to come.

Speaking of, the longer I stay there the MORE they'll pay! I automatically get a 10% increase in salary every year I decide to stay!

This is the perfect job and something I've been looking forward to for a while now. Like I said, I don't know where I'll be staying to later on this month (gotta go house hunting!!) but I can give you my work address there.

I don't have it on me at the moment, but when I get up to work I'll be sure to include it in the comments.

WOO-HOO!! ALASKA, HERE I COME!!!
