WTIT would like to bid farewell to Davy Jones of The Monkees. Davy was born David Thomas Jones in Manchester, England, on December 30, 1945. Ironically, he appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show with the cast of the musical “Oliver” the night The Beatles debuted. The Monkees were formed to cash in from the idea of turning The Beatles “A Hard Day’s Night” film into a weekly TV comedy. WTIT attended the mid 80’s reunion of The Monkees, (without Michael Nesmith) in Connecticut. Davy suffered a fatal heart attack while tending his horses in Florida. Davy was 66.

So yes, Kathy and I are planning for more. Gees.
6. Which three words do you think sum you up? Simply the best.
7. If you were a fairy what magical powers would you possess? I’d put dust on somebody else to write Saturday 9 and Sunday Stealing. You probably don’t realize this, but

The dictionary. Before spell check I was pathetic.

mom.
19. What is your favorite drink? Smirnoff. I know, you
didn’t see THAT coming.

22. How clever are you? I think I hold my own.
23. Name a new favorite TV show? I’m trying to get into Luck on HBO. It’s a bit slow, but Jill Hennessy is a

25. If you could have chosen your own name, what would it be? Judd Corizan.
26. Who do you most admire in life, and why? John Lennon. He and three guys from Liverpool changed everything.

sent me one.”
29. What is your biggest fear in life? That I’ll wake up and find out it’s still 2003 and I’m still sick.
30. What is your favorite flavor of ice cream? What does it remind you of? I know. I should have edited this one out. But 30 was a better number than 29 and I didn’t feel like stealing a question from Harriet.
That’s it for today on
WTIT: The Blog.
Enjoy your Sunday…
We will return.
Just a fair warning.
Peace & love, friends.
Join us. Same time. Same blog.

Saturday 9: Da Ya Think I’m Sexy
1. When do you feel that you are at your sexiest? Between 10:33 PM and 11:03 AM. Give or take 13 hours.
2. What’s your favorite magazine? Why? Horse and Hound. Why? I’m trying to impress Anna Scott.
3. What’s something you do more quickly than most people? Drive. Hey lady, pull over!
4. When do you first remember using a computer? I owned a chain of video stores for 10 years (1981-1990). We computerized them around 1984. My personal computer was really just a word processor. I thought it was amazing.
5. Who is the craziest person in your family? My Uncle Fred fashioned himself as an inventor. He thought he really had a winner with his wearable gum ball machine. Try as he would, no one ever noticed him trying to sell his gum. Fortunately his wife, my Aunt Maxine, worked as a prostitute part time. So when she went off duty, Uncle Fred would wear her wig and g-string to walk around selling gum. Sales went WAY up, but I always had the feeling that people bought the gum to make him go away. Go figure.
6. What one thing are you craving today? A UConn win. It’s been a crazy season with Calhoun out with his back problems. When his legs got severe nerve pain, he immediately took a leave of absence. He has the same thing that I did. I waited a year and a half to take a leave. Being a millionaire has its perks. He’s being operated on Monday. I had to wait six weeks before I could be fit in. I’m whining here, aren’t I? So, never mind.
7. What is your favorite thing to spend money on? Gum. I want Uncle Fred to go away, too.
8. What’s the part of your morning you least look forward to every day? Waking up. If it’s before noon, I consider it the middle of the night.
9. What are some rules you have for yourself that don’t really make much sense? None. All MY rules make sense.
1. History does not repeat itself. Historians merely repeat each other.
2. If it’s any good at all, they will discontinue it.
3. People who love sausage and respect the law, should never watch either being made.
4. The one-day you’d sell your soul for something, souls are a glut.
5. Never get into a fight with an ugly person. They have nothing to lose.
6. Everybody lies. It’s okay though, because nobody listens.
7. When the going gets tough, everybody leaves.
8. Never attribute to malice what could more easily be explained by stupidity.
9. If the shoe fits, it’s ugly.
10. For every action, there is an equal and opposite criticism.
11. It is easier to beg forgiveness than get permission.
12. If you starve with a tiger, the tiger starves last.
13. How long a minute is depends on which side of the bathroom door you are.
14. By the time you get to the point where ends meet, somebody moves the ends.
15. Borrow from pessimists. They never expect it back.
16. He who hesitates is probably right.
17. Generalizations are always false, including this one.
18. Few women admit their age. Fewer men act it.
19. If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again. Then quit. No sense being a fool about it.
20. Never delay the end of a meeting or the beginning of a happy hour.
21. If it were not for the last minute, nothing would get done at all.
22. Nothing is impossible for the man who doesn’t have to do it himself.
23. No problem is too big, too complicated or too complex, that it can not be run away from.
24. You can’t win. You can’t break even. You can’t even quit the game.
25. In nature, nothing is ever right. Therefore, if everything is going right … something is wrong.
26. Anything that begins well ends badly. Anything that begins badly ends worse.
27. Once a job is fucked up, anything done to improve it will only make it worse.
28. Doing it the hard way is always easier.
29. Teamwork is essential. It allows you to blame someone else.
30. Everyone has a scheme that will not work. Everyone that does not work has a scheme that does.
31. If you keep your head while everyone is losing theirs, then you don’t understand the problem.
32. Authority tends to assign jobs to those least able to do them.
33. To err is human – to blame it on somebody else is even more human.
35. If you do something which you are sure will meet with everybody’s approval, somebody won’t like it.
36. The customer who pays the least complains the most.
37. The longer you wait in line, the greater likelihood that you are standing in the wrong line.
38. Anything labeled NEW and/or IMPROVED isn’t.
39. An expert is one who knows more and more about less and less until he knows absolutely everything about nothing.
40. The older you get, the tougher it is to lose weight, because by then your body and your fat have gotten to be really good friends.
41. It takes a big man to cry. It takes a bigger man to laugh at him.
42. If you think there is good in everybody, you haven’t met everybody.
43. He who laughs last thinks slowest.
44. Birds of a feather flock together and crap on your car.
45. The 50-50-90 Law: Anytime you have a 50-50 chance of getting something right, there’s a 90% probability you’ll get it wrong.
46. If you’re going through hell, keep going.
47. Nobody really cares or understands what anyone else is doing.
48. Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
49. The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits.

Enjoy your weekend.

Curious as a Cat.: Number 311

2) Would you rather take an ice cold shower and be clean, or not shower at all? Shrinkage!!!
3) It’s 2112! What does your personal robot attendant do for you each day? It goes to work for me so I can sleep late. Yes, I know you expected more. I was gonna have it look like Jill Hennessy, but I’m just not sure. She’s got that new TV show with Dustin Hoffman on HBO. She gets four lines per show. I’ve waited four years for her to return to TV for that??
4) Show and Tell. What comes to mind first when you see this picture? Or, tell a story if it reminds you of one.
My take: Be sure when you order a new church, it’s not made in China.
We are never gonna
give you spiritual awareness.
But please join us next time anyway.
Same time. Same blog.

BlueFlames. It’s long so we will do it in parts. It was stolen from Nerdish. 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. Let’s go!
76) In your opinion, what makes a great relationship?For a guy, you gotta know the infamous “Six words you must say often” as heard first on WTIT. They are: “I’m sorry, my fault, you’re right!”77) How did/could someone win your heart? Each case is different, but generally there is alcohol and craziness involved.
78) In your world, what brings on more creativity? Chanting to the Gods of Humor.
79) What is the single best decision you have made in your life so far? Giving a mulligan.
80) Why did you break up with your last ex? This was on last week’s fucker. Sorry, I missed it.
81) What would you want to be written on your tombstone? “Drink to me, drink to your health, you know I can’t drink anymore.” Or “Keep off the grass”. It’s really a toss up.
82) What is your favorite word? Fucktardian.
83) Give me the first thing that comes to mind when you hear the word: delusional. The Republican agenda.
84) What is a saying you use a lot? “Don’t make it healthy.” I say that when they ask if I want a lemon with my Smirnoff rocks.
85) Are you watching Idol this season? If yes, how do you like it? Yes. So far, a great deal. I think JLo and Tyler do a great job.
86) Were you surprised that House got canceled? No, but disappointed. But, the show jumped the shark when he drove his car into Cutty’s house.
87) If you could press a button and make anyone in the world instantaneously explode, who would it be? If only it were that simple. There are far too many bad people.
88) What is your current desktop picture? It’s the 2011 WTIT DJ pic.
89) What would be a question where you’d not tell the truth? Over the years I’ve noticed that there’s no good way to answer, “Do I look fat in this dress?”
90) One night you wake up because you heard a noise. You turn on the light to find that you are surrounded by WEEPING ANGELS. The Weeping Angles aren’t really doing anything, they’re just standing around your bed. What would you do? Go back to sleep. Clearly I’m not awake.
91) You accidentally eat some radioactive vegetables. They were good, and what’s even cooler is that they endow you with the super-power of your choice! What is that power? Flight. It would make my sales route a fuck of a lot quicker.
92) You can erase any horrible experience from your past. What will it be? My first marriage. Although, I’d still would have to have my kids.
93) You can re-live any point of time in your life. The time-span can only be a half-hour, though. What half-hour of your past would you like to experience again? My first night with the French twins. They knew how to welcome a neighbor! They are still pissed that I moved away.
94) You have the opportunity to sleep with the music-celebrity of your choice. (let’s say that you are both single and available) Who might it be? Jill Hennessy. I’m nothing if not consistent. And yes, she started as a singer. She had a CD out in 2010 called Ghosts in the Attic. It’s quite good. She performed with the revival of The Lilith Fair that year.
95) You just got a free plane ticket to anywhere. You have to depart right now. Where are you gonna go? Liverpool.

You betcha! |
96) Who’s winning the U.S. Republican presidential nomination? Why? Sarah Palin. Because they all suck moose and she’s a lot hotter than, say, Newt.
97) Do you have any relatives or friends in jail? I know. What a fucking question. But I had to rewrite SO many I left this in. Can you imagine the reaction if I had left in “Spit out or swallow”? (True.)
98) Who’s winning the next U.S. Presidential election? Obama will win big.
99) If the whole world were listening to you right now, what would you say? Give peace a chance. See you soon, unless we get a better offer.
