My biography as haiku:
calling sports not played
poking fun without a point
dang i like donuts
It was a first, that’s for sure. After having to wait over 40 minutes for Utah at last year’s Sheriff’s Posse Dinner, Georgia Tech head coach Paul Johnson wasn’t about to accept another Pac-12 diss to start his second straight Hyundai Sun Bowl experience. So, after waiting 40 minutes for USC to show up for the annual kickoff feed and talent show, he put officials on notice — 10 more minutes and the Yellowjackets would say, “Adios!”
The 10 minutes came and went. And so did Georgia Tech.
So, we got to wondering...now that it's the Holiday season, it's COLD! And if it's cold, how is the Naked El Paso Caveman doing? Frankly, we don't know. But we did write him a Christmas song!
My wife plays Fruit Ninja. My children plays Fruit Ninja. My three-year-old GRANDSON plays Fruit Ninja! They ALL...EVERY one of them...kick my butt in FRUIT NINJA! I identify with this guy...except for the part where he's really slicing the fruit!
Trans-Siberian Orchestra isn't making its traditional Holiday swing through El Paso or Las Cruces this season, but they've certainly made an impact here. However, the band's greatest impact in the Borderland may have come off-stage in 2008.
If you haven't heard by now, Teresa broke off her long-term relationship with Paul. Paul Bunion, that is.
If Houston's trying to own Hanukkah, Dallas can't be far behind in trying to own what's next. The Houston Rockets did "The Dreidel Song" to honor those eight crazy nights. Not to be outdone, the Dallas Mavericks got together for a really bad rendition of "Sleigh Ride". Too bad for the Mavs and Rockets that the San Antonio Spurs own them both.
The reception area of the Larry K. Durham Center was filled with the faithful -- UTEP boosters and a number of ex-players -- all ready to welcome back one of their own to lead the Miners' football program. Sean Kugler was re-introduced to El Paso and took virtually no time to express his love for the university and the community.
"I love El Paso. Two of my children were conceived here," he said, eliciting laughs all around.

One of our favorite times of year is any time comedian BT pays us a visit, in part because he's passionate about many things. BT loves rock! BT loves country! BT loves women! BT loves motorcycles! BT loves energy drinks! And apparently, BT loves popcorn! He loved it enough to make a really catchy song about it. Careful! It's a brain worm song, but the lyrics are also NSFW...
Uncle Sam has been warning New Mexico for months to get its act together and tighten standards for receiving a driver's license. The Land of Enchantment won't do it! It WANTS illegal immigrants to have the same state-issued IDs everyone else does. So the feds say beginning next month New Mexicans can't use their licenses as ID to fly from any American airport, they must have a United States passport! Stupid, right? Yeah, we thought so, too, and we made a song about it...
The KLAQ Morning Show meetings feature three VERY interested watchers of AMC's "The Walking Dead"...but the line of the day was delivered at the end by the least interested of us all, Teresa!
You hate the cliffhangers! You LOVE the cliffhangers! You have to say, AMC's "The Walking Dead" is sure doing them right. If you're like me, you can't until February for the series to renew, you have to see all you can of What Comes Next. Here's a very quick sneak peek at the next episode: "The Suicide King".
