Says right here, most people don’t like April Fools gags. Well, duh!
No need to worry. There won’t be any April Fools gags pulled on this blog. Or on our show. Or anywhere within the reach of my influence. Not. Gonna. Do it.
Now you can carry on knowing that tomorrow will be a regular, no-nonsense kinda day. Yup.

Just wanted to say thanks to Christine who called in today with some kind words.
She said: if you ever get tired of working in radio, we should remember that there are always people (like her) out there who enjoy what we’re doing.
Those very kind words gave me some warm fuzzies and for some reason, gave me a flashback to my childhood.
I don’t think I could ever get tired of radio….Sesame Street trained me to love it. Happy, happy, boing, boing.

There, there. It will be all better in a few minutes.
You have to wait for the end. It’s worth it.
Gotta love that Justin Bieber, knowing just the right moment to call. See the video that you will have to show to somebody else here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTCm8tdHkfI

I’m not saying the playoff mustache was solely responsible for The Badger Men’s Hockey team making it to the NCAA Frozen Four, but it might be.
Here’s the publicity photo they’ve posted on the Badger’s website courtesy of UWBadgers.com.
Seems like there’s a common theme that’s tying them together…
There seems to be something different from the original. I’m not sure what it is though…

Here’s a mash-up of a different kind. Death metal meets 60s innocence, and it’s pretty fascinating.
Though I’m pretty sure that Louie Armstrong never really sang What a Wonderful World in this way, I suppose it could have been possible with an extra scratchy throat on a winter day.
The vocal is done by a Slovenian artist called The Markness.

Rated R – 1h40 -
This is without a doubt the funniest movie I’ve seen this year, and very well may be the funniest of 2010.
Hot Tub Time Machine has a ridiculous premise involving four buddies who go on a skiing weekend. Their room has a…you guessed it…which transports them back to the 1986, where they get the chance to relive a teenage party weekend.
If it sounds like a raunchy version of Back To The Future, that’s because it is. Hot Tub earns such a high rating, because it’s played out in a way that completely mocks the silliness of its own premise. It’s goofy bathroom humor, but it’s also genius.
Adam (John Cusack) is unhappy with the way his life has turned out. Nick (Craig Robinson) has let his dreams fall to the wayside after marriage and kids. Lou (Rob Corddry) is so desperate to relive his glory days, he’s rather take his own life than deal with his reality.
Desperate to break from their monotony, the group, along with Adam’s nephew (Clark Duke) go back to their old teenage ski resort stomping ground, where things are not exactly as they remember. A quick splash in the hot tub, and they get a do-over.
The idea of being able to go back in time and fix what went wrong is one of my favorite movie ideas, because who wouldn’t? Bringing your buddies for the party is just icing on the cake.
Running gags involving a puked-on squirrel , Crispin (who also was in Back To The Future) Glover’s character almost losing an arm and endless sex jokes keep the story moving from beginning to end.
They also play off Cusack’s obvious connection to movies of the 80’s. If you loved seeing Say Anything, Better Off Dead or Sixteen Candles, you can’t help the warm fuzzies from building up again. Rob Corddy though, is a frequent scene stealer with his manic outbursts and Craig Robinson ‘s comic style really round out a party that I would love to have attended.
It’s also noteworthy that DeForest native Sean Anders had his hands on this one, credited with the screenplay. If he reaches out to behind the camera, he’s going to be the next Judd Apatow.

That’s especially true for this pup in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Winston, an 80 pound pit bull-boxer or bulldog mix, began chewing on the tires of the police car, puncturing two tires. He is said to have then attacked two moving vehicles before turning his attention to a newly arrived police car after Officer Holmes called for backup.

That was the title of the only movie that Roy Orbison ever starred in. Found this trailer for it today, on the anniversary of the release of one of Roy’s seminal tunes- Only The Lonely.
Below the trailer, check out the video of Only The Lonely, a rare appearance for Roy without his glasses on.
