I’m not ashamed to admit it.  I LOVE Seth McFarlane. I think Family Guy is totally the funniest thing on TV right now. But I have to say, I was a little underwhelmed at American Dad. That is until I saw last week’s episode where Stan ( the dad) goes to retrieve his daughter from a My Morning Jacket concert only to be captivated by Jim James’ voice.

He then becomes a fanatic in the true sense of the word, even so far as to follow the band on tour so he can meet James. It kinda reminded me of my obsession with Phish in the early days. Make sure to watch the listings for this to be re-run!

Here’s a little taste.

dick clarkAmerica’s Oldest Teenager Dick Clark turns 80 today!  Although in recent years he’s most remembered for “Dick Clark’s Rockin’ New Year’s Eve,” it feels like I’ve been watching him on TV my whole life.

After he suffered a debilitating stroke a few years back, he only makes a cameo on that New Year’s Eve show, which is now hosted by Jonathan Suttin’s Number 1 enemy Ryan Seacrest.

Didn’t you love Dick Clark on $25,000 Pyramid?  Vicki Lawrence didn’t love him too much on this particular day…

Dick Clark also did some acting back in the day, appearing on the final episode of Perry Mason..and as himself on an episode of Batman. Check this out!

I’m really starting to love the Berbee Derby!  Now two years in a row I got a Personal Record at Berbee Derby.  This year I ran the 10k in 43:38- that’s averaging 7:02 minutes per mile!  Good for 12th place in my age-group!

Again this year, my friend Tara and I talked before the race and set some goals.  Last year we decided to try to run 8 minute miles and I ended up with about a 7:30 pace and she was at about a 7:20 pace.  So this year I suggested we aim for 7:30 and hopefully actually hit 7:00.  The strategy seems to work.  I was just over 7 minute miles and she was just under 7 minute miles.

Endurance House put together a team for the race- I actually didn’t register soon enough to be on the team, but I know everyone there, so I hung out with them before the race- we went for short warmup run together and while we were on that run, Tara jokingly said “5:15 for the first mile” and then I added “descending from there” (meaning- go faster on each mile after that), she finished the instructions by telling everyone they needed to run hard enough to puke at the finish line.  We were, of course, joking.

So the race started and Tara and I did the first mile in 6:19.  I told her that I would puke at the finish line if I kept up that pace- but she assured me that now was the time that we just ease into a comfortable pace.  I stayed with Tara through 4 miles and I stayed under 7 minute miles for 5 miles.  That last mile killed me.  It’s almost all uphill and I had gone out a bit too fast, so I was starting to lose steam.  But I made it- and made it in my best time ever!

stellaThanksgiving weekend edition!

1) Turkey Leftovers: this isn’t a band name or anything…I just LOVE turkey leftovers, in sandwiches. With Miracle Whip.

2) Natty Nation, F. Stokes, T.U.G.G. and Tropical Riddims Sound System Friday at 9pm at the High Noon Saloon. Reggae every day keeps winter away, right?

3) Wisconsin Chamber Orchestra Holiday Pops Concert: Saturday at 8pm, Sunday at 1pm at the Madison Marriott West.

Freaky Band Name of the Week: Unprotected Sex, at the Frequency Saturday night at 8. They’re a meta band. That’s all I know. I’m afraid to type their name into a search engine.

Move over, Rachael Ray and Paula Deen. Paul McCartney for some reason has made a video concocting mashed potatoes! I have no idea why he made this, but it is quite entertaining.

I’d say it’s Sir Paul at just about his cutest, post mop-top anyway. Enjoy, and happy thanksgiving!

Posted in: You Should Know

turkey dayAlmost everybody’s family is a little bit dysfunctional…and that’s never more evident than during the holidays, Thanksgiving included.

Not sure your family fits the bill when it comes to dysfunctionality? I’ve compiled a list that should help you out.

Top Ten Signs You’re Having A  Dysfunctional Family Thanksgiving

1. Dad decides to make beer can turkey this year..and slams back a case searching for the perfect can.
2. To get a headstart on Black Friday shopping, you have Thanksgiving dinner in the Walmart parking lot.
3. Hey this is a timesaver–Grandma thaws the turkey in the shower, while she’s in it!
4. You’re most thankful for the fact the judge threw out all that incriminating evidence.
5. While setting the table, you look for the family heirloom silver, and find a pawn ticket and an I.O.U.
6. You always set a place at the table for the local police officer. You know he’ll be stopping by before the night is over.
7. You can’t start eating until Uncle Joe says grace..when he calls collect from jail.
8. It’s a little embarassing when your pit bull gives birth during the main course, under the dining room table.
9. Mom accuses you of burning the yams. You’re not serving yams.
10. Your turkey is stuffed with repressed emotions.
