Checking in With My Mom

My mom left a voicemail for me last Sunday, and I didn’t return the call right away, so on Friday, I received a second voicemail from my mom wondering why I hadn’t called her:

Mom’s voicemail

I called her in the afternoon, and we had a long chat. I’ve broken it down into two parts, and keep in mind that Bonnie and Clyde are a pair of Shi Zhu dogs.

Just when you think it can’t get stranger with my “biggest fan” this call comes in. She’s babysitting again, and feeding the baby…and it goes weirdly downhill from there. Listen:

Greg is a Weird Dude - Phone Manners

Beefs, Dating, Greg, My Life 4 Comments »

Greg (evening/weekend guy on X92.9) is an odd guy. He is obsessed with finding a girl. It often interferes with him acting in a regular manner. He was put in the friend zone several months ago by a girl he likes, and she seems to enjoy the attention he gives her, and at the same time he thinks he might escape the friend zone. To that end, he makes himself constantly available (night or day) to chat with her on the phone, at the expense of common manners. They’ve never met. My thought on the cell phone is that we’ve become too obsessed and too available. My thought on girls is that the more available you are, the less attractive. If you are hanging out with a friend, and your phone rings, let it go to the machine. You can check the message, and if it’s an emergency, call back. If not, call later when you’re home. If you really need to answer it, quickly say “I’m busy now” or whatever, and ask if you can call later. Pretty simple! But not for Greg. Listen:

This week was abuzz with news that Greg (X92.9 evening/weekend guy) made the move on my sister who was visiting from Ontario. Was it wrong to put the moves on his good friends’ sister? Was she into it? I followed up with Greg on-air, with said sister live on the line from Greg’s hometown of London, Ontario. Listen to the call:

Greg Kissed My Sister

Audio, Beefs, Greg, My Life 22 Comments »

SisterOne of my sisters was in town from Ontario for a visit. I was tied up on a Friday night with a hockey tourney, so Greg (X92.9 evening/weekend guy) volunteered to take her out downtown. The next day, I found out that she was out ’til 4 in the morning and Greg had taken her back to his lair and gone in for the kiss. Is it breaking guy code to make the moves on one of your best friends’ sister? Take the poll over there –>

And listen to the on-air confrontation here:

Personal Jetpack

Cool, My Life No Comments »

A Friggin Jetpack!!!I’ve always dreamed of flight. And always thought it would be the coolest thing ever to have a jetpack. When I was a kid I recall seeing one on some Saturday morning sci-fi series and was amazed. Well, my dream is now within reach. There’s a company called Jetpack International that sells jetpacks. So, my question is, can someone loan me $200, 000? I’ll let you try my jetpack.

Greg is a Weird Dude - Restaurants

MMM...plain white riceGreg and I often hang out and go to grab food at restaurants. Trying to find a restaurant that meets with Greg’s strict, but crazy, needs is a giant pain. We recently went to a restaurant in an old house, with a really nice diverse menu. I found it delicious! Whitebread (Greg) didn’t enjoy it nearly as much. Listen:

Gold Digging

Beefs, Dating, Douche, My Life 5 Comments »

Gold digger=HookerSo I recently met this youngish girl. In that transitional phase between high school and university. Pretty girl. She likes to shop, and likes the nicer stuff. Here’s the problem. When you’re at that stage in life, your income doesn’t match your expensive tastes. What to do? Well, look forward to a time when you’ll have an income that matches your tastes. Perservere. Improvise. Find your own style that doesn’t cost a ton. Realize that labels are kinda useless. Or…become a prostitute. Sort of. Find a guy a little bit older, with some money, who will buy you all the nice things you want, and let you live the lifestyle you want in exchange for being his “girlfriend.” Money (gifts, nice things) for sex (girlfriend thing) = prostitution.

Calgary is a wealthy city, and this isn’t an isolated incident. It’s not just women who are to blame. You see these guys cruising 17th in their fancy cars (Lambos, Porsches, Escalades, H2s) with bad dance music blaring, oversize sunglasses on. All the money in a world can’t buy a personality. Lots of wealthy guys are bankrupt when it comes to intellect or personality. But there are plenty of women who eat this shit up. Instead of asking what you’re reading, they ask what you’re driving. Instead of asking what you think about, they ask what you make (about.)

This is not to say that there aren’t wealthy guys who aren’t douchebags. In my circle of friends, there are some people that make a really good living. But none of us flaunt it, or use it to get ahead socially. It’s secondary to personality and being human.

Is it just me?
