My biography as haiku:
calling sports not played
poking fun without a point
dang i like donuts
With the TV guys out chasing high school football, where's the only place you'll see Chris Washburn's big dunk and ANY of coach Tim Floyd's post-game comments? Right here.
El Paso has spoken and it was loud and clear -- YES to Propositions 1, 2 AND 3! That means not only are we saying yes to the downtown ballpark, but we're saying no to those who tried to throw us off track, whether it was for passion or personal gain. Nobody embodies that effort more than local attorney Stephanie Townsend-Allala, who put herself out there as the voice of NO. So if we're saying hello to progress, must mean we're saying...Goodbye, Stephanie! Here's out salute...
As we prepare for Taste of El Paso next week, the "El Paso Beer Snob" Adrian Perez came in to talk about the beer pairings he'll be doing and brought us samples. He brought in a box with an exotic beer that Adrian said actually uses a live snake...which IMMEDIATELY got Teresa's attention! Of course, Buzz picked up on this right away...
With the Miners down and out against Houston, Mike Price decided to throw the Cougars a curve. He sent in Blaire Sullivan to play the rest of the game at quarterback.
Four touchdowns and 300 yards later, the question is: What took so long?
Against a Houston team that had clearly eased off the gas and had no game tape on the sophomore, Sullivan threw for 246 yards, ran for 54 in the 45-35 loss; but the four touchdown drives he engineered were the most by any Miners' QB since Lamaison put up four against NMSU
A jam-packed edition of That Will Do, as we combine a touch of Tosh.0, not one but two Adam Sandler classics, gratuitous kitten videos and more to take on Jerry's Kids, Gronkowski spikes, Taiwanese animators screwing up Miguel Cabrera's name and Honey Badger's up-in-smoke career, plus a challenge to LSU and Alabama fans. And, out of all these characters, it's a golfer who makes this NSFW! Enjoy...

We saw some great homemade Halloween costumes at the KLAQ Halloween Parade, but this one might qualify for one of the best costume ideas I've ever seen. It definitely takes the cake in the jock world. Meet Paralympic skier Josh Sundquist. Josh has only one leg, but he makes the most of it -- as the leg lamp from "A Christmas Story"!
Michael Moore may be a leftist tool, but he puts out some entertaining stuff from time-to-time. This time, it's a pro-Obama ad featuring liberal New Deal-era grandmas and grandpas using language they would have washed your dad's mouth out with soap for using!
From the giant Kung Fu Panda with a broom to highlighting the struggles of "Mig'ur Cablela", the Taiwanese animators at NMA World Edition show us how San Francisco swept Detroit out of the World Series, complete with a scene of the Panda taking a chainsaw to a tiger's head! You can't make this stuff up. Or, well, actually...
Believe it or not, the KLAQ Morning Show has staff meetings, like everyone else. And, like everyone else, our meetings last waaaayyy tooooo looooong because SOMEBODY (ahem -- Buzz!) loves to talk. But, unlike everyone else, the topics of discussion that keep us in the conference room are pretty...different. Unless they have NSFW talks about zombies in their meetings, too!
Big men, perimeter shooters, solid guards and athleticism. You'll pardon UTEP head men's basketball coach Tim Floyd if he seems cautiously optimistic for his 2012-13 Miners. El Paso gets its first look Saturday night for free at the Haskins Center for the Orange & White scrimmage.
Crave will be serving up some phenomenal food for Taste of El Paso this year. We spent a little time with Chef Rudy who told us exactly what they were serving this year.
