Halloween Whine & Cheese

Wednesday, Oct, 30 2013

Tomorrow (Thursday) at about 7:40, it's my Halloween edition of Dave's Whine & Cheese!

Join us on WHBY for the morning show, where I will bring you The top Halloween costume ideas I'd like to see---here's an example:

Look, Kanye West and his soon to be bride, Kim Kardashian….dressed up as a pre-nup! Isn’t that cute, their little baby can already say “I give it six months!”

Ok...they'll get better by tomorrow morning...I hope!

Last Halloween dash!

Tuesday, Oct, 29 2013

Remember the last year you were allowed to trick or treat? I do!

Went with two of my buds and we scoured every neighborhood within a mile or two! We double and triple layered our goodie bags so they wouldn't break or fail with all the running we were doing in between houses. We jumped fences, leaped over hedges...heck, we probably broke the four-minute trick or treat mile! When I got back home that night and dumped out the treats, it almost covered the kitchen table! Mom had to do the obligatory safety check of the candy, but it was all good. I kept all the Nestle Crunch and 1000 Grand's and she took all of those awful peanut butter chewy things...remember those?

I had enough candy to safely get to Christmas, when Mom's cookies and fudge started kickin' in! Safe to say that I was hopped up on sugar for a few weeks that year!

Addicted to.....Oreos!

Wednesday, Oct, 16 2013

No kidding...Connecticut College professors have done a study with lab rats, and when tested with various food products in their cages, they ran back to the "stuff" in the middle of the Oreo! They loved the taste and wanted more! That explains it! Why you can't eat just a couple---you grab a handful!

I can't even remember that last time we had Oreos in the house, but I bet they didn't last long. I still remember when they came out with Double Stuff...what a day!

Kinda makes you wonder how many OTHER products have the same qualities, hmmm?

The power of Chiefs

Tuesday, Oct, 8 2013

So I'm at this past weekend's NASCAR race in Kansas City. Weird...it was almost 90 on Friday afternoon for practice, by race time on Sunday it was mostly cloudy, windy and 54.

Then, half way through the race, a fire breaks out in turn one at the track. Not on the track itself but up about 40 yards above the track where a grill in the hospitality area started some bushes on fire! Caution comes out...KC BBQ is outstanding, but I'll pass on the BBQ'd hydrangea.

About 75 laps to go in the race and I notice a group of people get up and they're going nuts, doing the tomahawk chop and thrusting their hand up in the air!! Then I get it--they are Kansas City Chiefs fans, the boys just completed a comeback in their game, and the Chefs are now 5-0. After winning just 2 games last year, I can understand their glee....but, sit the hell down!

Tom Clancy

Thursday, Oct, 3 2013

Prolific author Tom Clancy passed away yesterday at the age of 66. In a strange way, I might get a few more winks at night now!

There were many an evening where I would stretch it just one more chapter, even as my eyelids would get heavier and heavier. And a Clancy book was a delightful chore, often more than a thousand pages! You get your weight lifting in as you read!

Clancy had a new book due out in early December, with a movie based on another book due on Christmas Day. Looks a few more short nights of sleep coming!
