Brutally Honest on ShockNet - 08/29/09 - Show Notes

IT IS COMING! 

IT... IS... COMING!!!!!

IT... IS... AMERICAN HEATHEN®!

What? Did you think I was going to say "the end of the world"?

Well, OKAY, I do discuss the latest, greatest, bit of disaster pr0n out there as well, and why we're hooked on it more than the jingly kind. But first of course I need to get a few things cleared up about our upcoming brand NEW show on ShockNet Radio, and... yes... it is BRAND NEW! This ain't your older brother's Heathen show dusted off from out of the closet! What do I mean? You'll find out!

Plus... A special comment on the so-called "Lion of the Senate" (and thankfully they didn't say "driving force"), and the link between con/neo-con negativity and credibility.

All of that is THIS SATURDAY (08/29) here on ShockNet Radio at 7pm Eastern Time (6pm Norman time and 4pm Hefner Time) over at www.shocknetradio.com and also at Apple's iTunes Radio Player under the "Classic Rock" category. (Yeah, it used to be under 2 categories, but I'll explain what happened there.)

And don't forget that I will also (hopefully) be in the "Brutally Honest" chatroom at www.shocknetradio.com during the show, so I hope to see you there!

Brutally Honest: The New Heresy Begins Here!

They SAY she said...

I won't say who posted this, but it supposedly comes from a woman's perspective. Digest this and my rebuttal at your leisure (and at your risk)...

* Your last name stays put.

So can hers if she so chooses.

* The garage is all yours.

As long as we don't mind working around her Urban Assault Vehicle, and would we go ahead and check the oil while we're in there? She sorta-kinda forgets these things.

* Wedding plans take care of themselves.

She would not WANT us taking care of the wedding!!! This is HER day, this is HER dream come true, this is HER "happily ever after", and she will REMIND us of that a million times between proposal and honeymoon.

* Chocolate is just another snack.

We just allow for alternatives. Beer... pizza... chips...

* You can be President.

So can she nowadays. Didn't we have this conversation just last year?

* You can never be pregnant.

And she will NEVER LET US FORGET THAT!

* You can wear a white T-shirt to a water park.

So can she, if she's not self-conscious about it.

* You can wear NO shirt to a water park

And we REALLY wish she could too.

* Car mechanics tell you the truth

They just can't BS us as much, but they do try.

* The world is your urinal.

Better plumbing. Still not a good trade-off if you consider what goes into a prostrate check.

* You never have to drive to another gas station restroom because this one is just too icky.

We don't always have to sit down - see above.

* You don't have to stop and think of which way to turn a nut on a bolt.

She doesn't have to figure out how to thread a needle.

* Same work, more pay.

We're getting laid off more and being forced to accept less for the same work if we DO get hired. You want to trade?

* Wrinkles add character.

But not appeal or stamina. For that you need green.

* Wedding dress $5000. Tux rental-$100.

Nobody compliments us on the tux.

* People never stare at your chest when you're talking to them.

Better conversation pieces.

* New shoes don't cut, blister, or mangle your feet.

We don't consciously engage in masochism to look more appealing. Unless you count hair transplants... and those vacuum-things that pull on our... nevermind...

* One mood all the time.

She asks us to cry, she wants us to cry, then when we cry she wishes we didn't and thinks we have a mommy-complex. If we are of one mood it is because SHE insisted upon it.

* Phone conversations are over in 30 seconds flat.

That's because we like face-to-chest conversations better!

* You know stuff about tanks..

We have experience in having to protect ourselves from merciless assaults.

* A five-day vacation requires only one suitcase.

So can hers if she didn't plan for fifty activities for each day of that vacation.

* You can open all your own jars..

She can take off her own bra...

* You get extra credit for the slightest act of thoughtfulness.

We're having to work from an emotional deficit and an expectation of thoughtlessness.

* If someone forgets to invite you, he or she can still be your friend

We don't use social niceties as tools of psychological warfare. (See the reference about tanks.)

* Your underwear is $8.95 for a three-pack.

Not for the underwear SHE WANTS us to wear!!! Besides, $8.95? That's in the BOYS section! Men's section is at $12.95.

* Three pairs of shoes are more than enough.

We're not complimented on our choice of footwear. If ours stand out, we get laughed at.

* You almost never have strap problems in public.

We don't design clothes that are incompatible with bras and then require women to wear them underneath those clothes.

* You are unable to see wrinkles in your clothes.

We see them, we just don't care about them.

* Everything on your face stays its original color.

You apparently haven't seen my photo...

* The same hairstyle lasts for years, maybe decades.

Presuming we still have hair.

* You only have to shave your face and neck.

... and back and shoulders and butt and the... well... DOWN THERE!

* You can play with toys all your life.

She accuses us of not growing up.

* One wallet and one pair of shoes -- one color for all seasons.

We don't make it a big deal to be in sync with the seasons.

* You can wear shorts no matter how your legs look.

That's because she doesn't value our legs.

* You can 'do' your nails with a pocket knife.

And when the people who make the Swiss Army knives come up with one with a built-in polish brush with gloss, then so can she.

* You have freedom of choice concerning growing a mustache.

Yes, we can choose to never have a girlfriend ever again... not much of a choice if you think about it.

And speaking of which... WE weren't the ones that insisted that HER grooming habits make her look underage! (And YOU KNOW which area I'm talking about!)

And finally...

* You can do Christmas shopping for 25 relatives on December 24 in 25 minutes.

As long as they don't mind they come from the $.99 Store. And besides, who came up with the saying "It's the THOUGHT that counts?" Maybe if she encouraged us to have more than one mood, we'd put better appreciation into these things!


Well, there you have it...

Brutally Honest on ShockNet - 08/22/09 Show Notes

Writer's block sucks...

Yeah, I know this is RADIO we're talking about, but there's still a lot of preparation work that I have to put into doing these shows, and that takes time to come up with stuff that I will be discussing and how it can be phrased. And even in radio, writer's block SUCKS! I had all sort of idea that I wanted to discuss, and instead, because of writer's block, a lot of it got pushed back or whittled down.

So what WILL be in the queue for this week?

Well I have an important letter about a huge organization that has ASKED me to relay it to the listeners. I have a couple of news stores to talk about. I have a blast from the Brutally Honest past that I think a lot of you can understand. And I have a discussion about splitting hairs when it comes to group activities. What sort of splitting hairs? Well it'll make sense when you hear it.

All of that is THIS SATURDAY (08/22) here on ShockNet Radio at 7pm Eastern Time (6pm Norman time and 4pm Hefner Time) over at www.shocknetradio.com and also at Apple's iTunes Radio Player under either "Classic Rock" or "Talk/Spoken Word" categories.

And don't forget that I will also be in the "Brutally Honest" chatroom at www.shocknetradio.com during the show, so I hope to see you there!

Pen FAIL

Pay close attention to the pen on the right of the screen.

JUST a little extreme...


The really disgusting part is that these are the SAME SYCOPHANTS that spent the last eight years telling the rest of us that we all had to bow down to the will of the Bush Imperium, that their holy savior George W. and his apostles, Saint Karl, Saint Condi, Saint Gonzo, and especially the exalted most high Uncle Dick, were the only people that could keep the unworthy and unclean safe from the evils of the world.

These hypocrites that are screaming "NO" today were as recently as last year SCREAMING for government control, DEMANDING government action, and said that NO PRICE WAS TOO HIGH for the Holy Bush Empire!

As someone who TRULY understands and appreciates freedom... these hypocrites are DISGUSTING, DISHONORABLE, and DISRESPECTFUL!

Brutally Honest on ShockNet - 08/15/09 Show Notes

Just because I discussed a subject once doesn't mean I'm through dissecting it.

And thus this week I once again delve into the whole matter of healthcare reform.

First up is one of the new talking heads on cable news trying to get a certain group of people to speak out, and speak up, for President Obama's cause. Problem being, they're not a group this new talking head should be getting involved with. I'll explain why.

Then I get past the minutia and get to one of the key reasons why the healthcare issue has not gone away, and what it really takes to MAKE it go away. (Here's a hint: it doesn't involve the government.)

All of that is tonight, THIS SATURDAY (08/15) here on ShockNet Radio at 7pm Eastern Time (6pm Norman time and 4pm Hefner Time) over at www.shocknetradio.com and also at Apple's iTunes Radio Player under either "Classic Rock" or "Talk/Spoken Word" categories.

And don't forget that I will also be in the "Brutally Honest" chatroom at www.shocknetradio.com during the show, so I hope to see you there! Just go to the CHATROOM portion of the website and log into the "Brutally Honest" chatroom. No registration is required and no personal information will be gathered for being there.

Brutally Honest on ShockNet - 08/08/09 Show Notes

Every so often something will come up that will just hit me where it hurts... this week, I have two subjects that did that.

First, if you're a friend of the Bunny (and you know what I'm talking about), I have a special comment about its plight and what it needs to do to get back its glory.  Then we have a blast from the Brutally Honest past... and then something that happened this past week that REALLY hits me where it hurts.  What is it?  You'll just have to tune in to find out.

All of that is THIS SATURDAY (08/08) here on ShockNet Radio at 7pm Eastern Time (6pm Norman time and 4pm Hefner Time) over at www.shocknetradio.com and also at Apple's iTunes Radio Player under either "Classic Rock" or "Talk/Spoken Word" categories.

And don't forget that I will also be in the "Brutally Honest" chatroom at www.shocknetradio.com during the show, so I hope to see you there!  We even retooled it so now it's easier to access the chatroom AND hear the show.

Brutally Honest on ShockNet - 08/01/09 Show Notes

I have an interesting challenge for you the listeners this week. It's a test of individuality. Can you measure up?

Also, I have another blast from the Brutally Honest past. Art? Religion? Creativity? Why don't they get along? Find out why!

All of that, plus my take on how to deal with CNN's overinflated ego, is THIS SATURDAY (08/01) here on ShockNet Radio at 7pm Eastern Time (6pm Norman time and 4pm Hefner Time) over at www.shocknetradio.com and also at Apple's iTunes Radio Player under either "Classic Rock" or "Talk/Spoken Word" categories.
