JUNE 26, 2007

HAPPY BELATED LEON DAY...
Six months 'til Christmas! Can you believe it? (Get it... NOEL spelled backwards... LEON)... Yep, some people actually consider it a holiday... We played "Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree" to get you in the mood and remind you there are 182 shopping days left!

GOT THE NEXT JORDIN SPARKS IN YOUR HOUSE?
Mark your calendars and make hotel reservations in San Diego... Auditions for the upcoming seventh season of "American Idol" will get underway there on July 30th. In all, seven cities will be hosting the try-outs. "Idol" returns to TV in January. Wristbands will be given out from July 28 until 8 a.m. on the 30th. Auditions will continue at Dallas' Texas Stadium (August 6); Omaha's Qwest Center (August 10); a to-be-determined venue in Atlanta (August 14); Charleston, South Carolina's North Charleston Coliseum (August 18); Miami's AmericanAirlines Arena (August 22); and Philadelphia's Wachovia Complex (August 27).

HOW DO YOU RATE TO OTHER “BAKERSFIELDIANS”?
Want to see how well you measure up to your neighbors? Check out this site... you can plug in your ZIP code and learn WAY TOO MUCH info about your area. Money, traffic patterns, education level, ethnicities... it's ALL there... http://www.city-data.com/

HOW MANY DO YOU HAVE?
The average woman has 63 contacts in her cell phone. . . and 74% look at their phone, not a watch, to check the time.

AGE OF LOVE
Have you watched this show? Julie and I caught it last night... The gist is that Melbourne tennis champion Mark Philippoussis (age 31) is wooed by a group of thirteen special ladies. What Philippoussis doesn't know is that these women range in age from 21 to 48. Will he go for one of the younger gals, or will he become smitten by someone more mature?

To add a touch of tastelessness to the whole shebang, the young women will be referred to as "Kittens" and the older women will be referred to as "Cougars." Do you hear that loud rushing sound? That's the sound of decades of feminine progress being flushed down the toilet.

But seriously, what's funny about it, is they picked the six most brainless twenty-somethings they could find... The 40 year-olds are much better catches, and I bet he picks one... We'll see...
