My biography as haiku:
calling sports not played
poking fun without a point
dang i like donuts
Kipper Gray of Kipp's Cheesesteaks in the Cortez Building (203 E. Mills) wants the new downtown baseball stadium and outlined exactly why at the "Play Ball, El Paso" rally to support MountainStar Sports.
The "Play Ball, El Paso" rally drew a few hundred El Pasoans to Cleveland Square downtown in front of City Hall in a show of support for the downtown baseball stadium project. MountainStar Sports spokesman Steffen Poessiger talked about the rally and the issues behind it.
The UTEP Miners dominated with big plays on both offense and defense to win their first game of the season, 41-28, over New Mexico State in the Battle of I-10.
These days, you never know what a singer has had done to their voice in a recording studio to make them sound better. But not for Halestorm's Lzzy Hale. To prove she's the real deal check out this live acoustic performance in Pittsburgh.
You could tell this loss stung Mike Price just by looking.
More withdrawn. Fewer smiles. The kind of attitude you might expect less than 48 hours after getting so over-and-over close to a 10-by-55-yard stretch of lush, green Mississippi grass, but only getting to roll in it once.
So, what if Steve Jobs was resurrected as a hologram and started rapping like Tupac at Coachella? And what if he did that during Apple's presentation of the iPhone 5? Would it have you standing in line like Buzz, Monster, Stephanie and all the other iZombies? Maybe you should check out this hilarious cartoon from MondoMedia before you line up, we hear beginning tomorrow.
Buzz Adams has been talking for years about how he'd like to own a monkey. He finally got to find out first hand what that would mean as our buddy, Dennis, from "The Ark" dropped by with some visitors. William and Mandy brought pet capuchin monkeys, Min and Mickey, by for a visit. They were cute, funny, rambunctious...and they changed Buzz's mind completely! Check out the video to see why.
There's a woman in Rhode Island who lives next door to her ex-husband and his new girlfriend. Not surprisingly, they don't get along. So she trained her pet cockatoo to SHOUT SWEAR WORDS at them. Even better, ex-hubby's new girl made a video of the bird that is definitely NSFW (at least with the volume up)!
It's hard to believe it's been four years since El Paso lost the man who put UTEP -- if not El Paso -- on the map. Don Haskins died on this day in 2008. In tribute, here's the feature on his viewing at the Haskins Center, along with testimonies former former players and assistants (including UTEP coach Tim Floyd, then at USC) on Haskins' impact on their lives.
"Family Feud" premiered on TV way back in 1976. There have been six different hosts and LOTS of really dumb answers. But the dumbest of all? They're right here...
Buzz went off again today on just how much your vote doesn't count, especially in the national elections. Not only does he believe it's useless, he's kind of like an anti-Uncle Sam -- he DOESN'T want you, especially if it took a Hip-Hop star to get you to the polls.
Is Buzz full of it? VOTE, then tell us your opinion on Facebook!
