The Dark Knight has taken on a life of its own at theaters. People have been selling tickets on Ebay for Imax screenings of the film! Ebay…for a movie! Wow! Have you seen it? Check out the poll on the right of the blog and tell us what you thought.

congrats to the Blue Monkey Idol winner, Mel(in front). We were happy to be apart of the fun! Congrats to Daniel, the winner of the Summer concert Series tickets and Dream limo ride to and from the American Idol Live show at Conseco fieldhouse! Thanks for coming out, MM

My parents are HUGE fans of Food Network Star Paula Deen. They get a kick out of her down home attitude and recipes. However, since my parents aren’t exactly what you’d call “young” I keep telling them to watch and enjoy but DON’T EAT THE FOOD. Why? Here’s one of Paula’s recipes that comes with a free E.K.G.

1 1/2 pounds ground beef 3 tablespoons freshly chopped parsley leaves 2 tablespoons grated onion House Seasoning, recipe follows 2 tablespoons butter 3 eggs 6 slices bacon cooked, 6 glazed donuts

Mix the ground beef, chopped parsley and grated onion together in a large mixing bowl. Season liberally, with House Seasoning. Form 3 hamburger patties.Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Add the burgers and cook until desired temperature, 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare.

Fry bacon in a hot pan until crisp. Remove and drain on paper towels. Set aside.

While burgers are cooking, heat a non-stick pan, over medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons butter. Crack 3 eggs into the pan. Cook until the yolks are just set and still slightly runny and remove.

Place burger patties on glazed donuts as the buns. Top each burger with 2 pieces of bacon and a fried egg.

A hamburger with a fried egg, bacon and a freakin’ Krispy Kreme as the bun!! Seriously?!?! I’m getting chest pains just typing it! I’m not saying you should eat all healthy, all the time (wheatgerm, rice, wicker furniture, etc.) but you don’t have to eat like a goat! Stop the madness, Paula!!

Everyone’s favorite A.I. judge (alright the favorite former singer/dancer judge) is flamboyant, emotional and extra nuts. If you missed her appearance on QVC with her jewelry collection now you can enjoy the insanity that is Paula Abdul.

Congratulations to everyone that won tickets to see Avril Lavigne and the Jonas Brothers at Verizon Wireless Music Center in Indy on the 23rd.  Also check out our winner on the homepage!  If you haven’t gotten your tickets yet, get them here.  Btw…the opener is Demi Lovato.  She starred with Joe Jonas in Camp Rock.

On the fourth day of July the whole G101.3 crew was working at Glen Miller Park or back in the station to make sure Freedom Jam 2008 went off without a hitch. A lot of planning was put into the Freedom Jam festivities and a lot of hard work was necessary to make it happen. Despite the rainy weather we had a fantastic turnout for the Freedom Jam 5K run/walk, enjoyed fabulous live music provided by five local bands and the Richmond Symphony Orchestra and then the “hill” was full at dark for the fantastic fireworks display, thanks to The American Legion-Harry Ray Post 65. All in all it was a success and a GREAT time!!!! Thanks so much to all who helped, volunteered their time, and donated money to the fireworks fund!

If you didn’t make it out this year there will be more pictures posted of all the festivities and we hope to see you for Freedom Jam 2009!!

If you’ve been listening to the G101-3 Morning Show, you’ve heard about Dimitri. If you haven’t been listening…SHAME!! In the San Francisco area, a guy named Dimitri meets a girl named Olga. She gives him her card and tells him to call her. Apparently she’s not serious. Very apparently, he is! Listen and enjoy as he calls once to tell her how lucky she is and again to give her “one more chance”.  They’re back-to-back on the player so make sure you listen to the whole thing for the full effect.

Rita stopped by our booth to chat at the Wayne County 4-H Fair!  We’ll be there through Friday 2-9p!!!  Come by and say holla’!

For some reason people keep taking pictures of Tori Spelling and her husband…um…whatshisname.  Anyway, here they are on a leisurely stroll after (I assume) leaving the salon.  How can I assume?  He’s got his toenails painted.  Sorry…let me say that again.  ahem HE’S GOT HIS TOENAILS PAINTED!!  Huh?!?

Dave the Drawing Guy strikes again!  Dave has been doing drawings for the G airstaff and mine is finally here!  He’s done Mandi, Dave, Brent, Keith and Jessica with incredible accuracy.  He’s incredible!!  Thanks, Dave TDG!

You’re welcome ladies, in stores Friday, on Mandi’s wall Friday as well, lol. MM ;)

As you’ll recall on this very blog I mentioned the striking resemblance of The Golden Girls and Sex And The City. Check out what I’m talking about…now with video!

Thanks to the #&%^$ writer’s strike, my lone TV vice, 24 couldn’t get enough episodes done to make it on the TV schedule.  (Ok, ok…Kiefer Sutherland in jail didn’t help matters but whatever.)  Fear not…Jack’s on his way back!  November 23rd is a 2 hour prequel to the upcoming season.

Here’s a random Jack Bauer fact:  They once named a street after Jack but had to change the name because people kept dying on it.  Why?  Because no one crosses Jack Bauer and LIVES!

My grandma loved the Golden Girls.  After watching waaaaay more episodes with her than I’ll ever let on I’ve recently had an epiphany:  Sex And The City is a blatant Golden Girls rip-off!  Think about it…

Bea Arthur (Dorthy) = Sarah Jessica Parker (Carrie) Rue McLanahan (Blanche) = Kim Catrell (Samantha) Betty White (Rose) = Kristin Davis (Charlotte) Estelle Getty (Sophia) = Cynthia Nixon (Miranda)

Both shows have the strong female with the guy they can’t seem to shake (Stan vs. Mr. Big).  One character is a raging slut…check!  One is clueless to most everything…check check!  One of the characters is there for comic relief and little else.  Ummm…yep.  SEE??

Take them off Social Security, sex them up a little and move them from Miami to New York…bam…you’ve got a series!  What a rip-off!!
