The AIM Hall of Fame
 The AIM Hall of Fame. The following are transcripts of actual AIM conversations that made me laugh. The names have been changed to protect the innocent and/or stupid. Me: I
wanted to let you know. I just got off
the phone with UPS, because they destroyed a package they were sending to
me. During my heated phone call, I said
“seriously…that’s clownshoes”.
DAVE.: that is the
greatest thing i have ever heard. Ever.
---------------- FriendX: somebody just ripped my show on a message board
ME.: what'd they say about it?
FriendX: they said it's like listening to a college radio show
ME.: no way. college radio is WAY better than your show
FriendX: F(#@ you Hurley
-----------------
ME.: when
i add you to my calendar, i don't even put DAVE or anything else. it
just says "ravikoff"...which sounds like i'm meeting with a deranged
former russian KGB member is some backwater town in central europe
DaviRavikoff well i am of russian decent
ME most reps get the name of the label or a full name when i do the calendar. not you
DaviRavikoff i feel so honored
ME your
name should be whispered softly in a dark club by a young model named
annika "...shush, you cannot speak his name...you can only
whisper...ravikoff!"
ME kevin spacey should also appear briefly in that scene, but it's an unspoken role. he just nods..knowingly
-------------------------------------------------
XXXX: are you going to the farm show?
me: eh,
probably not, i grew up in Bradford County. i LIVED in the farm show
for 18 years. cows, tractors and sheep aren't really "novel" to me
-------------------------------------------------
ME: I think i want to throw a theme party. maybe a toga party.
XXXX: i threw a pirate-themed party...it went well.
ME: yeah. except for that lawsuit.
XXXX: well, aside from THAT.

HOMETOWN: Gillett, PA. Never heard of it? Drive north on RT 15. Take Rt 14 north until you come to PA/NY border. It's a big white house on your right. If you ask nice, my mom will let you stay for dinner.
WHERE ELSE HAVE YOU WORKED? I came here from Star 104 in Erie, PA (Radio and Records 2004 Radio Station of the Year!). Also spent time at Island 106 in Panama City, FL, 98 PXY in Rochester, NY, WINK 106 in Elmira, NY and 97BHT in Wilkes-Barre. I even worked at Q 102 in Philly. If i can find a way to work some weekend in Pittsburgh, then everyone is PA will have heard my voice.
DATING STATUS: Married...one day i woke up with a wife and two cats. Not quite sure how it happened, but i watched the wedding video, and it looks like i had fun. I do remember getting our cats...
ONE THING PEOPLE ARE SURPRISED TO KNOW ABOUT ME: I'm straight. No, really! I am. Half the people i meet think i'm gay. Could be my impressive clothing collection, my Volkswagen Jetta, my cooking skills....wait...i do sound gay.
WHERE'D 'YA GO TO SCHOOL?: Mansfield University (Go Mounties!). They should be erecting a historical marker at my old college apartment, 20 East Elmira Street. That's the scene of one of the greatest parties ever thrown. I'm pretty sure you can still find people sleeping in the bushes out back. Oh, if you happen to live at that house now, I'd like my dining room table back.
IN HIGH SCHOOL, I WAS VOTED "MOST LIKELY TO...?" I was voted HAPPIEST, that was right before i was also voted BIGGEST BAND GEEK.
WHAT'S THE CRAZIEST/SILLIEST THING YOU'VE EVEN DONE TO MEET SOMEONE OF THE OPPOSITE SEX? My roommate and I got these little plush Teletubbies out of a Happy Meal. He clipped one to his belt one night and all the girls were swarming to him. Craziest thing! He even used Tinky-Winky! I tried it, and it worked! The moral of this story...Happy Meal toys = love.
EVERYBODY COLLECTS SOMETHING, WHAT UNUSUAL STUFF IS CLUTTERING UP YOUR HOUSE? Autographed stuff and bobbleheads. My wife kindly asked me to bring the bobbleheads into my office. Our house looks like the HARD ROCK CAFE' with all kinds of plaques and autographed posters.
COMPLETE THIS SENTENCE...'WHEN I WAS YOUNGER, I GOT IN TROUBLE FOR...." My hair. I should have been strapped to a chair and head my head shaved. ugh. We'll keep those photos in the BACK of the album.
TELL US YOUR DIRTY LITTLE SECRET: I ride motorcycles. Is that dirty? nah... but my mom hates it, so that makes it a little dirty. That's my bike. OK, not exactly...but i didnt have a picture of mine. Mine's identical, except for the saddlebags.
JOBS YOU HAD WHEN YOU WERE YOUNGER: This is sad...i've been rejected by McDonalds and Spencers Gifts. I did work as a microwave technician for NFL games on NBC. I was on the sidelines when the Steelers beat the Colts in the AFC Championship!
WHAT IS YOUR THEME SONG? YOU'RE NOBODY TIL SOMEBODY LOVES YOU by Dean Martin
ANYTHING YOU'D LIKE TO ADD? Yeah...email me. It's quiet in the studio. Entertain me.

If you've watched TV or read gossip magazines lately, you've noticed a lot of celebs are hopping onto the political bandwagon this election year.
Alicia Keys was sporting her Obama shirt this week
Does it matter to you when celebs support a candidate? Or would you rather they stay our of the fray?
*****start poll*****
Poll: Should celebrities openly support politicians?
*****end poll*****
If i'm John McCain, i would be trying to come up with a t-shirt that looks as good as the Obama one. Half the people in Hollywood just wear things that look "cool" and don't even know who's face is on them. Maybe John could pose with a dragon, or a cute puppy...or one of the Jonas Brothers.

I had to postpone this week's chat with THE JONAS BROTHERS because they ran into some travel problems on Monday. Spoke with them yesterday, and we're going to get together in the next few weeks. So thanks for being patient. I'll let you know when I'll have them on with me.
They were pretty excited about this...check 'em out on the cover of Rolling Stone!

A little does of reality before we begin..
I was supposed to chat with the JONAS BROTHERS tonight. Just got off
the phone with them, and they're stuck in an airport waiting for a
flight. So we've gotta postpone the interview. If you emailed me a
question, i'm holding onto it!
Let me offer some alternatives for you...
You can still win tickets for their show! Just CLICK HERE!
Immerse yourself in our JONAS BROTHERS fansite. CLICK HERE!
THE DARK KNIGHT (henceforth known as "the 3rd greatest movie ever
made... or "T3GMEM") made about 160 million dollars at the box office
this weekend. no shocker.
I was surpised that SPACE MONKEYS made 7 million. Do you think some guy stood in the lobby and said "yeah...Dark Knight looks good, but i've got a great feeling about Space Monkeys! I'm going to that!"
In case you wondered...The greatest movie ever made is GODFATHER,
followed by SWINGERS. DARK KNIGHT is sitting squarely at #3 on my
list. SPACE MONKEYS is #9928 and falling fast.

WHO SAID IT? Take a guess, then scroll down for the answer
"Let's face it, I only practice yoga because the classes are always packed with beautiful women."

Poll: Who said it?
*****end poll*****
--------------------------------------------------------------------------- EMMY Nominations are out!
The greatest show on television had been duly nominated! Mad Men! Of course, it'll lose to some crap like Boston Legal.... even though that show sucks. I realize that a well-written and impeccably acted drama like Mad Men SHOULD win this award, but i'll be surprised if it does.
My favorite category HAS to be for "best reality series". Scroll down and see who got nods in that category. haha.
I dug deeper into the nomination and saw that SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE is actually nominated for best Variety/Musical program. What? NO ONE watches that show and it's horrible now. If Colbert Report/Jon Stewart lose to SNL, i will boycott and return my Emmy for "sexiest man who's not on television".
