Dina is SICK!!!

Hey, Lopez here.

Dina is sick. I think tomorrow I'll use an oxygen tank so I don't have to use the same air that Dina is expelling. Her kids were sick and now she has a sore throat. That made her less fun off the air. Sometimes I'm silly off the air and today Dina would just put her head down on the table instead of telling me to be quiet. I guess that's actually better. I don't have to hear all of her yapping! HA! (please don't tell her I said that, she'll come near me and cough on me or something)

Hopefully she will feel better tomorrow. Her sore throat made it hard for her to talk on the air, and we don't want her shushin' up.

Make sure you join us tomorrow because I'm going to sound sexy. Well, machines will make me sound sexy. It'll all make sense tomorrow.

And if you ever write a comment, sometimes, when I'm smart, I'll respond with a response (really? respond with a response? that's the best I could come up with??? what else would I respond with? a carrot?). I just want to make sure you know that I'm not ignoring them!

I'm off to get my anti-bodies all pumped up for a fight. They have a strict weight-lifting regimen.

Enjoy!

muh moooffff iffff foofff

Hi again, Lopez here. That's what I sound like when I talk with my mouth full! You didn't hear that this morning, but Dina and I seem to forget common courtesy sometimes. I remembered to ask her a question right after I put a pile of Go Lean in my mouth. And Dina didn't mind responding with a mouthful of pear. It was pretty funny. The conversation actually continued, too. I don't know that we actually understood each other, but it sure was engaging!

We then talked (without food in our mouth) about marriages only lasting 7 years. That's what they want to do in Germany. Then, you can go for another 7 years if you want, but they give you an out. Brilliant! That would save so many divorces! I always thought marriage should be a four-year lease, but 7 seems fair too. If you heard, the average marriage only lasts 8 years now, so 7 seems like a good time to get out.

What do you think? Genius or stupid? "Till death do you part" sounds so morbid. "Till the last season of Heroes ends" makes so much more sense!

I'm off to hide from the angry women.

Enjoy!

More Wedding Bliss

Hi again. Lopez here.

Never let it be said that June is wedding month. I've never gone to a wedding in June. They have all been in August and September. Mostly September. I went to another one this weekend that was very nice. Not as eventful as my last wedding, which is probably a good thing. I did dance like a crazy meerkat, though. And meerkats are ridiculously good dancers.

The BIG news is that Heroes starts again tonight! Oh yeah. And you have a chance to win that HD DVD player if you answer our questions tomorrow morning.

That's about all I have to say today. I have to get a lot of work done, so I hope you all have a wonderful day today.

Enjoy!

Oh, Jason Bateman *swoon*

Hi, Lopez here. Did you hear about Dina's dream with Jason Bateman? It was funny! She was telling me about it off the air, so I made sure to let you, the beautiful audience, hear about it. She was not happy about that.

I won't got into detail about what happened in the dream because, well, this is a family blog.

Dina couldn't even remember what he looked like, but knew it was him. He's not super famous anymore. I don't remember many dreams, but I'm pretty sure I've never dreamt about somebody famous. I usually just dream about being Spider-Man or something. You know, saving the world and stuff.

Anybody out there have dreams with somebody famous in them? You could just be dreaming that you went to lunch with Brad Pitt. It can be any sort of dream. Let us know!

That's all today. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!

I'm off to dreamland.

Enjoy!

Clothes are supposed to match????

Well, Lopez here again with fashion fun!

Dina didn't match today. I didn't say that on the air because she said she would hit me. She didn't say anything about the blog, though!

Yeah, she woke up late or something and came in all mixed up. Whatever. She was happy that her skirt felt too big, though. Her diet seems to be working. Next time you see Dina, tell her she looks thinner. She's doing a good job.

Survivor starts tonight. I'll let you know if I like anybody on the show this season. I felt a little bored last season except for the fact that Earl and Yao Man were really cool. Yeah, that's how I judge reality shows. I need awesome people to be there if they want my awesome time of day!

So, I hope you heard the news, the secret sound is back! It's going to be fun hearing all of your guesses about what the sound is.

That's all for today, I have to go get my car. She was shaking yesterday. Which is kind of like me. Yeah, if you didn't know, I have the shakes. Maybe I'll explain that someday, but next time you need somebody to thread a needle, DO NOT ask me, it'll take about three hours. Not fun.

I'm off to get some fries for that shake (HA!)

Enjoy!

Arrrrrrrh....

'Tis talk like a pirate day, matey! Lopez the Landlubber here! Actually, I have a pretty cruddy pirate name. It's "Cirrhosis" Carlos Cutty. Well, according to this website it is. Check it out! If you want to know your pirate name for this amazing day.

Did anybody watch Beauty and the Geek last night? I love that show. I'm such a geek. I'm sure I'd have a fun time with those geeks on the show. We know how to party with some comic books and a 20-sided die. We can roll it to see how much fun we can have...wow...that's a really geeky thing to say. I'd probably cooler if I talked about shoes, right?

Anyways, make sure you're here tomorrow morning for the big announcement at 7:05. It should be fun.

I have to go walk the plank.

Arrrrrh....

Dina broke it...

Hi again. Lopez here.

Dina broke her chair! HA! It was funny. About ten seconds before we went on the air, Dina was leaning back and we heard a pop sound and Dina almost fell over. It was funny! If you heard that moment on the air, you probably heard us laughing before we started talking. It was great.

Anyways, we have a new printer/fax machine for the FM studio! Yeah! It works now! We're so excited. If you want to fax us something, you can send it to 413-733-WMAS (9627). We'd love to start getting faxes in there again. Make sure you tell us that it's for the Morning Crew.

We love the emails and phone calls and blog posts too. They are all great! But you can fax us pictures. That would be fun!

Dina and I are going to have a little art competition coming up soon, too.

OH! AND a big announcement on Thursday at 7:05! It's good stuff.

I have to go prepare for my big night of beauty and the geek. It's going to have a geek girl on this season.

Oh, and be careful of lettuce. I hear it's on the prowl again. It has these claws that give you E. coli when it hits you. Dangerous stuff.

I'm off to battle the leafy greens. Wish me luck...

Enjoy!

Big E

Hi everybody! Ok, I hope you heard the song "When Dina Eats" because it is awesome. I'll try to post it. Hopefully I can.

If you are going to the Big E, here is Dina's special list of things to get. I believe you are supposed to get them in this order, too.

Maine baked potato
Vermont baked apple pie – a la mode
Rhode Island pumpkin fudge
Fried tempura
Crazy topping pizza slice
Big E Cream Puff
Éclair
Fried dough with chocolate
Broccoli soup and bread bowl
Cheese curds
Garlic bread with cheese
Mini donuts
White hut slider
Egg roll
Waffle sundae

What's your favorite thing at the Big E? Let us know! We'd love to hear about it and then Dina will go eat it. Seriously...

That is all for me. I have to go find Dina's stretch pants.

Enjoy!

Resistance in Futile

Hi, Lopez here. I don't know who the folks are who write things about me or the show in the posts and I have no control over them. I'm sorry!

We had a good time with Gary this morning. He's a great psychic. I asked him if I would be eating candy later today and he said yes. Guess what! I did! Already! How cool is that!

If you look online for fashion tips from Fashion Week in New York, don't follow them! All the pictures I've seen are of the ugliest clothes EVER! I don't get who would wear this stuff. It's all so hideous. I'm all for jeans and a t-shirt. If your dress is all fluffy like sea-foam, no thanks! I do LOVE that color though. :)

I saw the coolest thing yesterday at the gym. Somebody has a license plate with "The Borg" written on it. How cool is that! You don't know who the Borg are??????!!!!!! That means you haven't watched enough Star Trek. If the Borg are here on earth, we better watch out because "resistance in futile."

Don't forget to listen for our Big E food song tomorrow. It's called "When Dina Eats" and it's awesome.

I'm out for today. I've got a few fun things ready to post for the next few days, so keep an eye out!

I have to go set my phasers to stun.

Enjoy!

-Lopez

did you get your invitation...

TO THE GUN SHOW!!!!!


HA! How did they know I was in town? If you look really closely, you can see some muscle, too. Impressive right?

Well, I'm not the only dufus around here. If you didn't hear the story, Dina used conditioner all last week instead of shampoo. She said her hair was nice and greasy. That sounds awesome. Or totally gross. I don't know if conditioner actually cleans your hair or not, but I'm guessing it doesn't.

We've something good in the works for all you wonderful listeners. It's a song about the Big E! Yeah! It's going to be a good time. Listen for it on Friday.

I think that's all I have time for.

I have to go lather, rinse and repeat.

Enjoy!

-Lopez

sorry

Lopez again. How is everybody? I hope you are all fantastic!

Well, I don't know if you heard about the "apology maker" that we talked about this morning, but in case you ever need to say you're sorry, it could help!

Go to www.karmafarm.com and check out the apology maker for both men and women. Actually, the women one isn't really an apology. Something about women never having to say their sorry. Yeah, I don't get it either. Dina tried to explain it, but I forgot to pay attention to her. A little warning, some naughty words are on the site, just in case you have kids around.

Tomorrow you'll want to hear about the "gun show" in town. Oh yeah. It's good stuff.

I'm off to lock and load.

Enjoy!

-Lopez

old friends and ice cream

Well, Lopez here again.

First, I want to say that I cannot post the conundrum on here because that would give people more opportunities to figure out the answer, and we want to make it more of a challenge! If you can only hear us read it at 8:50, that makes it sooooo much harder! Tomorrow is day number 5! That means somebody is going to get five days worth of prizes or it goes away forever. Make sure you listen to the clue at 6:05 because it will make the answer so easy. We want somebody to win.

I hope everybody had a good weekend. I went to a wedding in Vermont. It was fun. I saw some friends from High School who I haven't talked to in at least 7 years. That's a long time! We were all pretty much the same. One of them even has two kids! I can't believe it. I had a good time. We'll be talking about the wedding tomorrow. Some weird stuff happened. We'll want to hear your stories tomorrow.

I also got some Ben and Jerry's ice cream because the wedding was near the store in Vt. I got a scoop of the cinnamon bun ice cream and the coffee coffee buzz buzz buzz ice cream. They tasted great together! You should have both of them. So good.

That's about it for today. I'm sure I'll blab more soon. Things are settling down a little here.

I'm off to hunt for some more ice cream.

-Lopez

wow...I've been lazy

Well, Lopez here and things are crazy around here. I've been a little bogged down these last few days and for a few more days. I'm hoping things ease up a little bit around here.

Anyways, still being lazy, I talked about what your personality is based on where you put your hands on the steering wheel and I had some requests to post that info. Well, here it is!

How you grip your steering wheel reveals your personality.

ONE HAND ON THE CENTER SPOKE & THE OTHER ON THE WHEEL RIM
If you drive like this, you are elegant and artistic and polite with strangers. You're a bit of a "Sunday driver" who is also well mannered and always open to advice.

HANDS AT THREE AND NINE O'CLOCK ON THE WHEEL
If you drive like this, you like order, efficiency and simplicity. You use your imagination to unwind, especially in traffic, and you are known as a reliable employee around the office. You always believe, "slow and steady wins the race."

HANDS CLOSE TOGETHER AT THE TOP OF THE WHEEL
You are authoritative, anxious and like to worry. You sometimes take on impossible tasks and don't always trust others. You are loyal to the few friends you have and are slow when it comes to love and business.

HANDS ON THE BOTTOM OF THE STEERING WHEEL
If you drive like this, you fear disappointment and hate letting others down. You have a tendency to shift gears quickly and change your mind which often confuses your friends. You are sincere and vulnerable.

ONE ELBOW OUT THE WINDOW AND ONE HAND ON THE STEERING WHEEL
You are quick, agile and optimistic. You have lots of energy and make friends easily. In the past, you sometimes have been too casual with lovers.

There you go, and I also talked about what dumb moments we've had in our lives where you slap yourself on the forehead and say "wow...that was dumb".

I had a TON of phone calls. Anybody want to post their stories? Go ahead!

That's it for now. I'll try to get better about posting. Thanks for putting up with me as I do the show alone this week. It's been wacky.

Enjoy!
