Welcome again to Stealing which we bring you weekly on The WTIT Blog. We have gotten really good at just stealing a meme from someone else’s post. (You can play this meme with Judd and click on the official Sunday Stealing meme.) Today we ripped this meme off a blogger Today we ripped off a blogger named and blog named Mignight Murdina of the blog Not All That Wander Are Lost. This meme was meant to be done with one question a day for 7 days. We are bad at following rules. So we will do it in a day! It is stated that it was “ganked” from Karaokegal. But, it was probably stolen there as well. So, of course, that will be as far as we go. Tracing back our theft’s thieves might take some time. So let’s go!.Cheers to all of us thieves!
1. My neighbors, who are French twins, have told me that I am the finest lover ever.
2. While on vacation, I once rescued a woman who had fallen overboard in her boat by blowing up balloons and putting them under her arms.
3. I turned down a chance, back in the day, to be in Playgirl’s Great DJs edition.
4. I won a huge pot in poker at Mohegan Sun about four years ago. I gave the money to charity. It was called “Our Sisters of The Tiny Breasts”. They give implants free for poor women in need.
5. I could have been a contender.
6. I write the most read blog on the Internet. But it isn’t this one.
7. I never lie. So I have to say some of these answers were exaggerated. A bit.

2. I still want to own a radio station.
3. I want a custom built computer so that WTIT can record digitally again.
4. I want to live in a house with Kathy.
5. I’d like to reconcile a very special relationship.
6. I’d take perfecting a few more skills for my job.
7. Jill Hennessy.
1. Bad drivers. You know what I mean. Anybody but yourself.
2. Moet Hennessy. They make the ONLY 100% proof premium vodka. But it doesn’t say that in its logo. It’s marketed as Belvedere Intense. Really, Belvedere Dence is more like it.
3. Ex-wifes. Or ex-anything if you will. I still am pissed that I put up with my ex-housekeeper. You know, the one I called “hot”. Oh, right. That was it.
4. Outsourced call centers. Do I have to say more?
5. Drunk girlfriends of your neighbor. At least keep the bloodshed spilling in your own place.
6. Cops. I know the are heroes. But have you ever had one that was a dick? Mostly, I know.
7. Any woman who says, “Not now.” It should be fucking outlawed.
1. Write that book about analyzing The Beatles’ lyrics.
2. Try to sell my abilities in comedy. I should be writing sitcoms.
3. Tell the people I love, that I love them enough.
4. Remember that my neighbor’s wife’s husband (I know. I just had to do it.) comes home.
5. Grocery shop. Well it’s not neglected unless someone makes you do it. Right? C’mon, show of hands!
6. Get my hair cut on time. It’s always when it’s way too nasty and then my hairdresser moves without telling me but I still go there and get stuck for an hour in her ex-parking lot.
7. But almost I found her a fucking week later.
1. Sex.
2. Drugs.
3. Rock
4. and

6.Loaded baked potato.
7. Women.
1. Let them talk, occasionally.
2. Don’t make a date with two women on the same night. Unless they know about it.
3. Always ask “When does ‘he’ get home?” If there is a “he”, you’ll know.
4. If you want them to leave, but you want them to decide it. Turn on a game. Of anything, sure.
5. At first with sisters, keep them in separate rooms. 6. Keep saying “excuse-me-me” and go to the other room.
7. Save yourself for marriage. Of course that is stupid. But poof! The last fucking question is answered. As always, Monday Mayhem with my friend Harriet is tomorrow.

Every Saturday WTIT: The Blog brings you a meme called Saturday 9. It’s not to say that this is a bright idea, but it is what we do. A woman named Crazy Sam started this meme because a prior popular Saturday meme specialist Lola had retired. So, Sam contacted all Lola’s participants and invited us to participate in her meme. Let’s begin!
1. How does your day usually go on Monday? It’s a real drag. I have throw out the hookers and put away the blow. Wait. That’s Charlie Sheen’s Monday. My bad.
2. Who was the last band you saw live? Dennis DeYoung, The founder and lead singer of Styx.
3. When was the last time you purchased something over $50? I bought a new car last week. It’s a 2011 Chevy Malibu. This weekend Kathy and I will drive to the Berkshires.
4. Does talking about sex make you uncomfortable? Right. It’s not as though I talk about blowjobs and shit like that here. I am fucking so hung up. Oh lady, bend over and grab your ankles! (If you don’t mind.)
5. Do you wish you were someplace else right now? Yes. With the French twins. We had a spat. We gotta make up. I miss our adventures.
6. Tell us about the last wedding that you attended. My sister Amy is 25. (Dad’s second marriage.) She got married in August. It was a blast. My dad sang his signature song, Wonderful World. Joe Greico, a great musician (Think The Cartells) played piano. He is such a great guy and a true friend of Bernie’s.
7. What’s annoying you right now? I’d say it is no fair that my diet cannot include Smirnoff. There ought to be a law. But the doc’s the boss. I ain’t heading back to St. Fran’s.
8. What is your best skill/ability? Why? I generally have the quickest humorous retorts.
For a punchline my mind runs at hyper speed. I think my knowledge of rock music is a close second. Why wasn’t my last morning show renewed? It was called Mike and The Hunter. Gary Hunter was my DJ handle for over twenty years.
9. If someone asked a friend of yours, “Hey, what is one thing your friend is exceptional at?”, what would they say about you? Why? I have the ability to stop responding when a meme asks the same fucking question twice. Sam’s gotta get back on her fucking meds! Truly. We’re back with Stealing.

This is the story of my neighbor Jeff Wagner.The company that I work for insisted that I move to Enfield to be close to my sales territory. I didn’t know anyone or anything about the town. But as the years have passed I love the town with the merchants, neighbors and the people that I deal with. Nobody made me feel more welcomed than my neighbor Jeff.
Jeff and I had much in common. He was single a long time as was I. I have grown children and he had a child, Sean in his twenties. We both loved sports. He’d talk Red Sox and I’d counter with my Yankees. We spoke of the NFL, whenever we saw each other in the winter which wasn’t much. We both worked in sales. Jeff was with the same company for 24 years and it amazed me. I’ve been with Martignetti Companies nearly seven years and it’s a record. He traveled a lot for his job. He’d return and share the stories of his trips.
Jeff was really active. He would speak of skiing, hiking, biking, golf and kayaking. After seven back surgeries, I felt walking to the mail box was enough activity. Last year my best friend John spent over a month here. Since he smokes we spent a lot of time outside on my patio. Jeff would always join us and we’d talk about women (he loved his girlfriend Kelly) and current events. I guess Jeff wasn’t a friend in the sense that we did things together, but he was my friend. A good friend at that. When the love of my life, Kathy moved in last June, Jeff could not make her feel more welcomed. She’d often walk in from the end of her work day and speak of running into Jeff.
I don’t see much of Jeff in the winter. But one day Kathy pointed out that Jeff’s car had changed. That’s not odd, but it was older and rather beat up and that wasn’t Jeff. Jeff was a classy guy. I planned last week to ask our apartment manager as to when Jeff moved. I was sorry we didn’t say goodbye.
Kathy started a new job this month. Yesterday she was asked to clean out the office of an account executive because a new one was taking his place. That’s when we found out. It had been Jeff’s office. My friend Jeff had a massive heart attack while in a ski line at Jiminy Peak in December. He fell by his girlfriend Kelly’s side and died instantly. He was only 62.
I will miss him a lot. I’ve cried a lot over the last 24 hours. I haven’t cried in years. Jeff is no longer with us, but he was with me once more today because he was with me in this post. Goodbye Jeff. I truly miss you.

Welcome to Rock ‘n Roll Fridays on WTIT: The Blog. This meme appealed to us because of a twist in its concept. Each week DJ KathyA (its host) picks a rock band, artist or era. She digs up thirteen quotes from the song lyrics and asks her questions based on the quotes. Let’s do it.
Rock ‘n Roll Fridays: Aerosmith
1. Dream On “Every time that I look in the mirror, All these lines in my face getting clearer. The past is gone. It went by like dusk to dawn. Isn’t that the way. Everybody’s got their dues in life to pay” Do you pay dues or something such as a membership in a union, church, civic group, gang, etc? Do I pay membership dues to a gang? Really? A fucking gang? I think you lost it with all those trips to the hospital. Oh goodie, my gang dues have lowered! When you’re a Jet, you’re a Jet all the way!
2. Angel “Without your love, I’m nothing but a beggar. Without your love, a dog without a bone…” What is your favorite dog breed? Whatever breed my virtual dog Happy is. He’s such a good dog!
3. Sweet Emotion “You stand in the front just a shakin your ass. I’ll take you backstage you can drink from my glass…” Have you ever been backstage at a concert to meet the band? If not, what band would you like to meet backstage? I waited to meet Paul the night I worked his concert, but this was pre-cells. I had to go not to lose my ride. I did kiss Bonnie Raitt once after her concert.
4. Walk This Way “So I took a big chance at the high school dance with a missy who was ready to play…” What was the first song you ever danced to at a school dance? I don’t remember at a dance, but at my first party in 8th grade I first danced to Surfer Girl.
5. Crazy “You’re packin up your stuff and talkin like it’s tough. And tryin to tell me that it’s time to go, yeah. But I know you ain’t wearin nothing underneath that overcoat. And it’s all a show, yeah.” Ever worn your PJs in public? Yes. When I was very ill in ’03, I went back and forth to the doctor in pajamas.
6. Cryin “I was cryin when I met you. Now I’m tryin to forget you. Your love is sweet misery.” What is the worst film you went to see in the past 5 years? One of the newer Star Wars films, I walked out on. Whether that was within five years is anybody’s guess.
7. Draw The Line “Checkmate honey beat you at your own damn game. No dice honey I’m livin on the astral plane. Feet’s on the ground and your head’s goin down the drain. Oh heads I win tails you lose….” What is your favorite board game? Beatles’ Monopoly rules!
8. Big Ten Inch Record “My girl don’t go for smoking, and liquor just makes her flinch. Seems she’ll go for nuthin, ‘cept for my big ten inch… Record of a band that plays the blues…” What was your favorite record (or CD) when you were 18 years old? That summer the jukebox kept playing Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band.
9. Janie’s Got A Gun “It’s Janies last IOU She had to take him down easy and put a bullet in his brain…” What was the last IOU written for that you either gave or received? I really don’t remember the first.
10. Jaded “My my baby blue. Yeah I’ve been thinkin bout you. My my baby blue, yeah you’re so jaded. And I’m the one that jaded you” Are you jaded on a subject or issue? I’m jaded on politics. But I still pay attention and hope. I think the movie The Candidate with Robert Redford captured why the politician changes and forgets why he got started in the first place.

11. I Don’t Want to Miss A Thing “I don’t wanna close my eyes. I don’t wanna fall asleep cause I’d miss you baby And I don’t wanna miss a thing….” What was the last event that you missed that you regret? Kathy’s birthday. I did not plan on being in the hospital for it. She brought my wrapped gift down and looked happy. But, it had to suck. We’ll never get that “first one” back.
12. Rag Doll “Yes I’m movin, I’m really movin. Sloe Gin fizzy, do it til you’re dizzy. Give it all you got until your put out of your misery” What is the most miserable thing that happened to you recently? I think the aforementioned hospital visit qualifies. But the outpouring of well wishes on facebook and Stealing, sure helped.
13. Love In An Elevator “Love in an elevator, lovin it up when I’m goin down. Love in an elevator. Livin it up when I hit the ground…” What is the most unusual place that you have made love? I guess it was on a hotel balcony. Sorry, no video. We will return with Crazy Sam’s Saturday 9.

Either you have used sites such as Match.com or Yahoo Personals or you’ve read them. Weekly, WTIT: The Blog scours those on-line dating sites to respond either ladies’ profiles or often their headlines as most of us would really like to do. (You can play this meme with Judd and click on the official site Thursday Dating Profiles!) Let the stupidity begin!
Thursday Dating Profiles: Getting Back to Myself
1. Please don’t judge me by my posted pic…better ones to come soon!!! There would have to be.
2. Life isn’t puppies, kittens, and rainbows all the time. Really? Thanks for the fucking insight.
3. My goal is to get back to me over this next year. If this makes sense to anybody, keep it to yourself.
4. I can find the good in anyone and feel like I 
am open and trusting. Oh great. Call all perverts!
5. I give great massages. How about blowjobs?
6. Please drop me a line if you are interested in me or my cultural background. Please do send me all the shit about your fucking cultural background, it’s got to be more interesting.
7. When it comes right down to it, I enjoy putting a smile on someone’s face. So you’re good at blowjobs, too?
8. I love the outdoors and being active. Loving sports and the outdoors is a plus. Meet the Queen of Redundancy.
9. If you are looking to someone to grow older with, look no more. If it’s all the same to you, I’ll keep looking.

seasons, though autumn is my favorite. I wanna hurl. Kathy’s got Aerosmith on Rock ‘n Roll Fridays tomorrow. Peace.

Welcome to Wednesday Wickedness on WTIT: The Blog. This meme appealed to us because of a twist in its concept. Each week they pick a celebrity, then dig up ten quotes from the person and asks the meme questions based on the quotes. Who would think someone would do something original? We didn’t see that coming. Let’s do it.
Wednesday Wickedness: Ashley Judd
1. Abstinence, being faithful and correct and consistent condom use are the only ways to successfully reach everyone when discussing HIV prevention. I believe that the abstinence message alone does not solve the AIDS epidemic.
Do you think there is any realistic point of trying to teach abstinence? Bwahahaha! Only those who mentally block out their own teen sexuality could possibly think that. Or any really stupid ass fucktard.
2. And when I started to get wind of the fact that they actually liked me being around. That was humbling, because Kentucky basketball is a big deal, and I am not the biggest fan – I am just the most notorious one. 
What are you a fan of (sport or non-sport)? My favorite sport is baseball. I am a lifelong Yankee fan. My favorite season is college basketball. My dad was the captain of his team at UConn. I attend more UConn games then any other sport and nothing beats college basketball’s March madness. I love the NFL, no college.
3. Both my husband and I give a lot of ourselves in what we do because that is our public lives; but in my private life, I have an intrinsic right to be left alone.
How much alone time do you need in a relationship? 1 hour, 7 minutes and 15 seconds per week.
4. I did a lot of hiking and I loved it.
What outdoor activity is your favorite? Sex on the beach.
5. I get lonely when I’m a Playstation widow.
What video games are you into? None. But since I bought Kathy a Wii for birthday, I think I’ll be starting.
6. I think it’s easy for me to connect to some people, and I don’t know if that’s the same thing as falling in love whereas before, I might have said it was. 
Tell us about a time that you thought you were in love, only to find out that it was only physical attraction? Eighth grade with Sylvia Rentalot. We got naked a lot. Of course I thought it was love. But then, you won’t believe this, I found out other girls would get naked, too. In eighth grade, who knew?
7. I think that being perceptive and having interests is nothing but an asset. 
How perceptive are you with new people in you meet? Not bad. I’m not like Tim Roth in Lie to Me, but I’m pretty perceptive.
8. I think that, as with marriage, you just know when it’s time to have kids.
If you have kids was it because you were ready? If not when did you decide that? You can plan those things? Wow. That explains a lot.
9. It’s up to us to take pop culture back and to express quality and dignity for both boys and girls.
What’s the best of pop culture for you in 2011? I’d be lying if I said I thought at my age of 259 that my opinion would be relevant. I just know what I like in current rock music, TV and the like. I am exposed to a lot of the current pop culture yet hove no clue what Lady Gaga and the Kardashian sisters are all about.
10. No, I don’t tolerate pressure from anyone about anything.
When was the time that someone made you feel pressured? Only when Harriet asks me to bring back Thunks. See you for Dating Profiles.
After a radio, nightclub and television career of over 25 years, I still write and perform comedy with essentially the same group of guys that I started with over 45 years ago. We began as WTIT: Tape Radio and have kept the moniker ever since. What WTIT is, however, a journal of a group of friends done in a radio morning show format playing the music of the era. We have every recording. We interviewed our girlfriends before “The Prom” or whatever. We shared growing up, getting married and having kids on WTIT. Later it was stories of divorces, new wives or girlfriends and grandchildren.
Just like with any group of friends, people came and left over the years. More than 50 gentlemen have sat around our big round table in what is now a state of the art digital recording studio. We still call it “Tape Radio” because we’re old guys who hate change. This comedy blog has won numerous awards and tells part of the story, but exists mostly to comment on life, politics, music and entertainment as it passed by our virtual window. One of our original guys left in 1985. But in 2013 he returned. So our starting five have three of the creators of WTIT.
Shortly after that on our http://facebook.com/WTITRADIO page we announced when our next recording night would be. Another of the original five had come back to join in. Galloping Gary, our brother, returned (since 1982) to record. The "Galloping Gary Garage Show" returned to WTIT in 2014. So for one special night (the first since 1973), four of the founding five were sitting at our table. The sight where all the guys who came after them had sat.
If you’re here for a laugh, we hope you enjoy your visit. If you’re here because of a cosmic accident where all of the web except this blog has gone, then we simply apologize. To learn more about WTIT visit WTIT.net. (View my
