I think Artie showed up really late and it was like 7 or 8:00 Howard needed to get to bed, and so he left before the dinner was served and he was just generally uncomfortable and cranky, you know, being in a social situation and all.

Ah - I was indeed thinking of the right incident. Thanks much!

6:05. That's what time this morning he started bitching about it.

Long as we are talking about commercials breaks, he takes one at 7, then 7:30 (though today he missed it) and another at 8. I know this because I listen straight through without interruption from 6-8. The 7:30 is new since the start of 2011.

Three commercial breaks in two hours, 10 minutes each or so. Three of them are actually from 7-8 (though the 7 AM one counts for the first hour). So that's around 30 minutes of commercials in an hour, technically.

Robin telling Howard not to have a smoothie for lunch, great advice.

I was actually yelling at the radio as that went down. I wish they called her out more, though at this point the risk versus the reward skews too far in the former's favor for them to do so. She loses her mind in a split second when she gets angry - there's no build up, it's just full on 34 outta nowhere.

Spice was talking about it on Bubba the other day and said he looked into doing it for the shows twitter and you have to jump through a few hoops. However, I am sure it would be easier for Howard than Bubba.

I thought I remembered Gary saying he never even did anything, and it just showed up, so it must be an arbitrary thing. And I do agree it will be a no-brainer for Howard.

You know how we are ALWAYS talking about Howard's lovely taste in music? I was at a pep rally at an elementary/middle school the other day, when a song started blaring out over the loudspeaker and the kids went loving apeshit. They were dancing and losing their loving minds because they were so excited to hear this song.

So as I am listening to it, I realize it sounds vaguely familiar, but I can't place it. At the exact same moment I realized: "Oh hey! Howard went through a stage where he was playing this song" and then, "WTF...this is "Party in the USA" by Miley Cyrus."

Definitive proof that Howard has the taste of a middle school/elementary school girl.

I was looking on Dog Star Radio for the Backspin playlist and I can't find it anywhere. Now, I have XM in my both my cars - I don't have Sirius any longer. Is Backspin not available on Sirius?

Edit: Found my answer - but weird:

quote:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BackSpin

On the Sirius receivers in the US and Canada, the channel is incorrectly labeled as Pop2K, which can be heard on XM channel 30 and on Sirius internet radio SIR-6.

How the hell does a channel get labeled wrong?

I like to think that her hair is a good sign of her madness. I can see her hassling her hairdresser, saying that she wants the dreads tighter and tighter and just speaking over her stylist until, one day, the stylist does exactly as she wants. And snickering when she sees Robin, bravely trying to pull off the Pickles look.

This is absolutely what I think probably happened with her hair. The stylish knows it's no good, but you know how that goes....gotta give the client what she wants!

Pop2k was a channel that debuted with the new Sirus/XM line up after the merger. It was basically a channel to play all pop and dance tunes from 2000 - current.

Backspin was brought back after many compaints a few months after the merger and replaced that channel. I'm guessing a push to update the radio firmware was too expensive/time consuming to deal with.

I still have Pop2K as well, though - it exists. Weird they can't "fix" it.

With the bits and music in and out of the commercials, the commercials vary from 10 - 15 minutes, easy. He's also been crazy about taking the breaks early on. The 7 and 7:30 are so regimented that today he cut himself off sentence at 7 to go to break.

I'm not listening as much later on, so I don't know if it is like that all day.

That poo poo with Lisa G is even more unsettling when you realize she is Howard's age.

And Sal - I hate to give Gary credit because I hate him, but he had it right: Sal only knows he did something wrong because he gets told he did something wrong and even then doesn't really understand.

In the 4+ years I've been listening to the show, I've always liked him, and wondered why you guys all ragged on him.

I never really had a problem with Gary until Sirius. But now, ugh. Even his cadence pisses me off - he talks then starts talking so fast the words are all merged together. He also does something odd where he cuts himself off in the middle of a sentence to start another, all the while talking a hundred miles an hour.

It is exhausting to listen to him speak.

Let me preface this by saying I find Kevin Smith to be insufferable. He has diarrhea of the mouth, and I had to stop following him on Twitter because he was flooding my feed.

(Though his early movies will always have a special place in my heart)

That said - Howard completely made something up this morning in his discussion about why they don't have Kevin on the show - he said they don't have directors on often. That is utter bullshit. Just in the Sirius years they've had a ton: Quentin Tarantino, Eli Roth, Franics Ford Coppola, Ron Howard, M. Night, and James Cameron. (Though that might have been pre-Sirius.)

TMZ obtained the text message Kacey sent Charlie yesterday afternoon (see above). After dropping the bomb -- which must've floored Charlie -- Kacey continued, "I don't believe it's yours, but I'm going to Oregon to take care of the situation."

As for why Kacey thinks Charlie is in the clear ... he used protection, but Kacey says both of them were so out of it she's not sure if it did the trick.

According to our sources, Kacey plans to terminate the pregnancy in the next few days.

We're told Kacey never heard back from Charlie. He probably hasn't picked up his jaw off the ground yet

She's already had a few abortions...3 or 4 maybe? Maybe it's from the dude in the middle east!
