Personal

So I did it. I Finally pulled the trigger on a new pair of headphones. After numerous posts and email exchanges with my friends on this blog, I narrowed it down to one lucky pair. It's funny how much the prices can swing across the web. I actually thought I could get a great deal though BSW, but I saved $10 going through Amazon.

What did I get???



That will remain a mystery until, as promised, the exciting unboxing live (recorded) on ViralDj.com. If you're a true radio nerd, you're kind of excited right now. Just admit it. With any luck, I should get the (mystery) headphones by the end of the week. Stay tuned!

Have a great show today. Here are a few things that may get you started...

Too beautiful?


Why do women hate beautiful women?

That's the question asked by a self-identified beautiful woman in yesterday's Daily Mail. She has lived her entire adult life being pampered by men -- from spontaneous flowers while walking down the street, to gifts of champagne while travelling by air.

Beauty can be a curse, she says. How? She has a list:
  • Friends won't bring their boyfriends around her
  • Female bosses have held her back from promotions at work
  • Not one girlfriend has asked her to be a bridesmaid
  • Men won't ask her out because they think she's "out of their league"
If you're like me, your heart starts to melt for her after recognizing the struggle she endures on a daily basis. But wait, there's more.

The paper spoke to a therapist who agreed that being too beautiful is an actual problem. Marisa Peer says that woman have always measured themselves against each other by their LOOKS rather than ACHIEVEMENTS.



If you are attractive other women think you lead a perfect life — which simply isn’t true.


Here's the kicker -- this woman isn't half as hot as she thinks she is, or maybe you should judge for yourself here.

Phones/Facebook: Let's get serious -- do you feel her pain? Do you feel like you've been pushed aside because of your looks?

Could you land a plane? Your grandma did!


Wow! An 80-year old woman, who had never flown an airplane, was forced to land it after the pilot passed out at the controls.

The woman was guided safely to the Door County Cherryland Airport in Wisconsin by an air traffic team and a second pilot who flew along side her plane. She suffered minor injuries after a bumpy landing, but was otherwise okay.

The pilot, her 81-year old husband, later died at a hospital.

Phones/Facebook: Have you had to do something you had absolutely no training for?

The Most Depressing Jewelry Line Ever


Divorce rings. There's a growing trend that involves mourning the end of your relationship with jewelry. Boticca.com sells a $1,348 divorce ring that is molded into the shape of a bridal bouquet...stuffed into the skull of a dead bird (picture). Fun, huh?

You can also lay your past to rest by placing your wedding ring into a $40 mini-casket (picture) with a customized plaque that reads: "Six feet isn't deep enough."

Joke of the Day


A man walks pass a beggar on the corner of the street where he works. The beggar holds out his one hand and the man drops a coin into his hand.

One day the man walks past the beggar again and notices the beggar is holding hold out both his hands.

He asks: “Why are you holding out both of your hands?”

The beggar replied, "You see sir, business is going so well I decided to open another branch".
