For this quick CD review of “Right Back at Ya” from Michael Stanley Band, The Dude on the Right puts this one almost as a “best of” of a band that, for whatever radio reasons, but most likely “money’s still the way they keep score,” never made the uber-national stage. They will still, always, be one of his top five bands ever.
What’s New?: Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up: The Bag-Lady, “Norbit,” Scuba Diving, and TV Talk.
For this podcast of “Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up” Stu Gotz revels in stories of pirates and diving. The Dude on the Right, on the other hand, met up with The Bag-Lady, skipped tennis for “Norbit,” and watched too much T.V.
Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up! The Bag-Lady, “Norbit,” Scuba Diving, and TV Talk.
By:
The Dude on the Right
Stu is back from his travels, so I’m not flying solo for this installment of
"Stu & The Dude’s Weekend Wrap-Up!"
Stu’s weekend was capped by a lot of scuba
diving stuff, complete with a night out with way-competitive scuba folks
(thankfully they weren’t diving, or with knives) and meeting the
"Deep Sea
Detectives." His travels last weekend also took him to
Disney’s Pirate and Princess Party where he dressed up Mama Gotz in a skimpy
pirate outfit, and makes fun of the dudes who didn’t grow a pair and dressed up
as Prince Charming. He wouldn’t elaborate on any Pirate booty he may have
gotten, but the kids were with him so there was probably nothing to brag to the
guys about.
Me, I saw a dear old friend of mine, The Bag-Lady, with her
daughter, and could still kick myself in the ass for not going to see her
daughter’s tennis match in lieu of seeing
"Norbit." I give Stu some of my take on The Grammy Awards telecast, as
well as my initial thoughts about the new season of
"Survivor."
So much to talk about, so little time.
Thanks for listening and your comments.

Sundays are Productive Again!
By:
The Dude on the Right
It’s amazing how much more productive I can be on a Sunday when there isn’t a
football game to distract me. For whatever reason football is not a
multitasking sport for me. Golf, baseball, basketball, or NASCAR I can
have playing on the TV above my computer work area and keep up and never feel I
am missing anything, but not for football. Maybe it’s the fact that any
given play can be exciting, or there’s the action, then the stop in the action
to huddle, then the action again, then the stop again, and eventually a
commercial break to go pee. Baseball, basketball, and NASCAR just seem to
plow along during their duration, and sure, golf has the action/break sequence
of football but unless it’s a hole-in-one, I’m not going to miss something
exciting.
But now that football season is done, today has been one of the most
productive Sundays in a while. I read my newspaper with my breakfast, I
did some grocery shopping where I bought only the foods I needed to get back on
my healthy track this week, and I filled up the dude-mobile with go-go juice.
I was going to get the dude-mobile washed, but with this being the first, sort
of warmer day we’ve had in a while, the line for each car wash I saw was over
ten cars deep, and I didn’t want to spend the next hour waiting in line to get
my car washed, especially when the forecast for tonight is snow, which means
more road salt, which means that if I drive anywhere tomorrow, well, my car will
look pretty much as it does right now, and I would have wasted an hour in line
at the car wash. I didn’t plan ahead, I guess, on the car wash thing,
because the Turtle Wax
does have free internet access and gives you a
"Two
Day Clean Car Guarantee," so I could have actually been productive, and got
a free car wash on Tuesday, but alas, I’ll have to try to remember to bring my
laptop the next time.
But on my productive scale today, I also got a whole
butt-load of movie previews posted, and started working on redesigning our
home page a bit. The
Grammy Awards are tonight, so I’ll probably try catch them and hope
something fun happens.

What’s New? A Movie Review of “Norbit.”
For this movie review of “Norbit,” The Dude on the Right doesn’t have much to say except he did like the neighbor dog, and Eddie Murphy’s portrayal of Mr. Wong.
What’s New? A Podcast of: R.I.P. Anna Nicole Smith, and on “Survivor,” Go Alex, Dre, and James!
For this podcast The Dude on the Right talks about the death of Anna Nicole Smith and words said by Rosie O’Donnell. And as much as he likes Jessica at the start of this season’s “Survivor,” he now has to cheer on three dudes, Alex, Dre, and James.
R.I.P. Anna Nicole Smith, and on “Survivor,” Go Alex, Dre, and James!
By:
The Dude on the Right
Sadly today marked the passing of
Anna Nicole Smith.
Okay, maybe not personally sad for me because I never really knew the lady, but
it’s all over the news. Sadly for
Rosie O’Donnell she has some remarks on record about Ms. Smith (thanks Roe
Conn for hipping them to me during your radio show).
Also, today marks the
return of Survivor, this time it’s
Fiji.
In
my last podcast I lamented about my love for Jessica, but sadly, with some
picks out of a hat, I have to really root for three dudes, namely
Alex,
Dre, and
James, because, well, there is money, umm, I mean a prize involved.
Thanks for listening and your comments.

What’s New? A Podcast of: Go Bears? Prince was Great, has a Big Guitar, and The Dude Roots for Jessica from Survivor.
For this podcast The Dude on the Right is sad the Chicago Bears lost in the Super Bowl, but looks forward to being confused for both baseball and basketball. He also wonders why there hasn’t been an uproar about Prince’s guitar during his halftime show, and looks forward to the new season of Survivor with his new girlfriend, Jessica.
Go Bears? Prince was Great, has a Big Guitar, and The Dude Roots for Jessica from Survivor.
By:
The Dude on the Right
Well,
the Chicago Bears couldn’t seem to put it all together against the Indianapolis
Colts for Super Bowl XLI, but bring on baseball and basketball. At least
it wasn’t the Cleveland Browns vs. the Chicago Bears, because I am so torn where
my allegiances lie anymore.
Prince was at the game, though, to put on the best halftime performance
ever, complete with his giant schlong, I mean guitar.
And in other TV news,
Survivor
is back, this time from Fiji, and I’m already a fan of
Jessica. Sure, I was almost 12 when she was born, and at that time had
a crush on a different girl, but I’ve grown since then.
Thanks for listening and your comments.

What’s New? Movie Reviews of “Epic Movie” and “Smokin’ Aces.”
The Dude on the Right saw a couple of movies over the weekend. He felt “Epic Movie” had pretty much no potential, but felt “Smokin’ Aces” had a lot of potential, until it changed direction from a movie about a bunch of over-the-top assassins to an FBI mob want-a-be movie.
