EXCERPT: I saw this goofy story this morning and I thought someone else might enjoy it.
Look at me! Look at meeeee! Source: metro.co.uk
The best thing in a band is always the one guy who is convinced that he's the real star of the group. Casting aside conventional wisdom like 'the lead singer is the one everybody watches' or 'guitar solos should focus on the guitarist', they take every opportunity to pout, star-jump and pelvic-thrust their way into the audience's...

EXCERPT: So I'm sitting here watching Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring and I'm asking myself, "What game are you going to play when this movie is over?"  That question is a difficult one to answer you see because I just got a new game for my Xbox 360 called "Rock Band" and for those of you who are non familiar with it or Guitar Hero (it is like Guitar Hero but with more instruments).  It is a game where you have to hit buttons or areas on an...

EXCERPT: In the last couple of days at the azcentral.com website, they have posted stories about a theme park and water park to be built in Mesa and Eloy. I think this is great for the state because while it may be affordable to buy a house here, the state is sorely lacking in entertainment options and these two parks would solve that problem. It shows a progressive businness attitude and acumen and it is about time. the parks will succeed because the state's dynamics have changed. the...

EXCERPT: I don't know if this post violates guidelines or what not, but I am posting it anyway.
I'm forming a filmmaking cooperative that will have as its mission to make short films and feature length films in the Phoenix Metro Area. that will be the start of it. I eventually would like to shot on location in flagstaff,az during the summer months. At first there won't be any financial compensation, but as we distribute our films via on demand and thru e-commerce, the chance of...

EXCERPT:   This Sunday night, July 8th from 7-9PM, Average American will be Guest Hosting the John Dale Show on AM 1100 KFNX. On the show I will have as my special guest Anna Gaines, Stephanie Harris and Dr. Carol Hand. If these names do not sound familiar they should.
Anna Gaines is the Arizona contact for the organization "You Don't Speak For Me". A Hispanic immigrant who came to America legally she is a voice for thousands who believe that illegal immigration is not...

EXCERPT: This Sunday will be the last www.voiceofarizona.com show on 1100 KPHX unless by some strange chance the financing suddenly comes up from out of nowhere. I know some of you will have the comment of "so what" while others will say "what took so long". And that's fine.
I have had a great time hosting the show and intend in the near future to return to the airwaves to drive the Liberals crazy with my opinions both educated and not but always grounded in common...

EXCERPT: The article below was in wired, just wanted to get some comments from VOA members. Refusing to Fold, Online Poker Players Bet on Prohibition Repeal Luke O'Brien 05.21.07 | 2:00 AM WASHINGTON -- Anyone who thinks poker isn't a game of skill should see Boy Wonder playing Texas hold 'em online from his D.C. apartment. The 24-year-old sharp starts with six tables. Then eight, then 11. He folds. He checks. He raises. New windows pop up on his monitor like...

EXCERPT: AMERICAS BAND!!! They were and still are! If anyone has yet to see the DVD "Shut up and sing" you need to add this one to your collection. As the neo-Nazis lied . . . the chicks suffered (as did we all). Now they are on the rebound! I hadn't bought a CD in ten years but after seeing their DVD . . .I zipped over to best buy and picked it up! Hell, I don't even like country music!!! But I like this. This is my band now (Ted Nugent move over) And I just want to use...

EXCERPT: So AA had his radio debut tonight.  Because it would be rude and unseemly, I won't mention that his first show took place on April Fool's day. 
Here is my review.  Starting from the bottom up-so to speak.
His caller Lisa pleaded for the two factions to get together to fix the countries problems.  Here Here!!!  AA agreed that was important, and to be helpful in this regard threw in the comment "Conservatives think, Liberals feel."  Way...

EXCERPT: So there are more important events happening in this country but...tonight's American Idol with the horrible singer Sanjaya staying in the competition , smells like an Indian Call Center working for their own. This is a good example of the benefit of outsourcing. Do you think maybe the family called the aunts, uncles, cousins and friends to keep this kid on the show? If this kid wins, then my suspicions are right on, or it could be hackers hard at work. Now that I've...
