Kanye West's 'Yeezus' Gets Much-Needed Puppy Makeover

hollyiverson — Mon, 17 Jun 2013 17:27:55 +0000

Whether you love or hate Kanye’s new album ‘Yeezus’ (or haven’t heard it yet because it hasn’t *technically* been released), you’re going to love this track. It’s the “I Am a Dog” remix of ‘I Am a God.’ Kanye maybe takes himself a little bit too seriously (for a rapper who complains about his croissants [...]

Let's Put On A Show

Jerry Puffer — Tue, 04 Jun 2013 16:53:01 +0000

A children’s show! It will be fun! I recall those old movies I used to watch as a kid when a bunch of young folks would get together in the barn & put on a spectacular production. Shades of the old Judy Garland/Andy Rooney/Little Rascals movies. There were some good ones! Our local Pondera Players [...]

Getting To The Point

Jerry Puffer — Wed, 22 May 2013 17:03:03 +0000

“Financial Independence; Getting to Point”, is the hardcover book that I’ll be giving away this afternoon (Wednesday) on Puffman Musical Trivia at 4:30.

I have ONE(!) copy left of the hardcover book on the Yankee Clipper, Joltin" Joe, that I'll be giving away tomorrow morning, Saturday, on "Puffman Sports Trivia" at 7:30. This is a cool presentation by Tom Clavin that just hit the major bookstores this week! "The DiMaggios: Three Brothers, Their Passion for Baseball, Their Pursuit of the American Dream" is a "home run" for sure! Simon & Garfunkel famously asked, "Where Have You Gone, Joe DiMaggio?" I've got the answer to that...i

Where Have U Gone Joe DiMaggio

Jerry Puffer — Fri, 10 May 2013 15:54:00 +0000

A Cop/Rock Star Relationship

Jerry Puffer — Tue, 30 Apr 2013 17:37:48 +0000

It’s all here in this fictional story with FACTUAL events about a cop & his relationships with “famous inhabitants”. It’s D.C. Murphy’s new potboiler, “Rooster-A Badge, Gun & Heartache”.

Psy Destroys Another Justin Bieber YouTube Record

Emerald Catron — Tue, 16 Apr 2013 20:31:30 +0000

You might have thought everybody was so sick of 'Gangnam Style' that they never wanted to see or hear Psy again. It seems that is not the case. 'Gentleman,' Psy's first release since 'Gangnam Style' took over the world last summer, immediately smashed a record held by Justin Bieber for most video views within 24 hours of its debut. Like, he seriously crushed that record.

Hey Everybody, Beyonce Can Actually Sing the National Anthem

Beyonce decided that the time to address whether or not she was lip-syncing the national anthem at the presidential inauguration is now. You know, when everybody’s already forgotten about it. Thanks for the reminder. To prove she’s innocent, she called a press conference and then sang the song a cappella for everyone there. Satisfied? Good [...]
