Halloween Ball

Hi Folks, Lopez here.

I just wanted to remind you that starting on Monday we will have a whole new way of blogging. We're going to try to give folks more options here.

Also, I hope to see a lot of you folks at the Halloween Ball! It's going to be a fun time. Come on by and say hello.

Enjoy!

Lopez

you talk, we listen

Hi folks, Lopez here and don't let it be said that I'm a bad listener.

Some folks don't like my posts and some folks don't like my family writing to me. That's fine with me! So, in order to make everybody happy (hopefully), we are going make some blog changes starting next week. I will keep you posted on all that is happening soon.

Enjoy!

bloggin

Hi folks. Lopez here.

I'm sure you've heard by now that Chris has joined us in the mornings. He's getting settled in and somebody asked if he was going to start doing the blog because mine stink. Maybe not those exact words, but close enough :)

I am going to teach him to blog. It would be sweet if he decided to do them. Not only would you have more entertaining blog entries, BUT it would free up my time! It's a win-win!

We've been busy with all sorts of stuff around here potty-training the new guy, but thanks for sticking with us through all the changes that we're sure will bring us to bigger heights.

Enjoy!

Decepticons!!!!! NO!!!!!!!

Hi folks. Lopez here, but when I'm a transformer, they call me Optimus Lame.

Check out this site:
http://optimus.transformersmovie.com/

You can email people a message warning them of a Decepticon invasion! I sent one to Dina saying her husband was a Decepticon. I think I actually scared her a little bit.

Don't know if you're living with a Decepticon? Well, let me help you out. If they transform into a bulldozer, stealth jet or tank, they might be a Decepticon.

Also, if they stick to purple colors, that might be a hint.

Finally, if they talk about stealing the power of the Allspark and taking over the world, then they're either hungry for some microwave nuggets or they're a Decepticon.

Seriously, doctors have proven that folks craving microwavable chicken nuggets act like Decepticons. Don't look at me that way. I just report the truth.

I'm off to transform into Chuck Norris.

chiktchuktchukchickchick (that is the sound of transforming)

darn it...didn't work...again...

Don't Waste Food!

Hi folks. Lopez here!

I was talking with Dina about "Chuckles" off the air today. I don't know how we got into it, but she said she hated them. If you don't know them, they're a "jelly candy". I don't know if that makes sense. They're soft gummy candy with sugar crystals all over them.

Anyways, I said that I liked eating three of them. They are a candy where you're in the mood for them, and then you eat three and realize you don't want to eat anymore. BUT!!!! You can't waste candy! You have to eat the whole thing! Like mom always said, there are children in New Zealand that don't even get to eat ONE Chuckle! It's not good to waste a perfectly good candy like that.

It's tough, but I suffer through the whole package.

It would be a good gift for Bosses Day today. Get your boss a bag of Chuckles. They won't know if you hate them or love them. It's good to keep the boss on their toes.

Give your boss a big hug!

Enjoy!

weird vacations

Hey folks. Lopez here and I am NOT going on vacation anytime soon. BUT, if I had the option, I might go to Hawaii or Alaska or someplace different. How about you?

I was talking to a friend of mine from Albany and he told me that his wife used to go to Holyoke for vacation when she was younger. Now, I love Holyoke and think it's fantastic, but I would not think if it as a vacation spot, would you?

Yeah, her parents used to go to a hotel in Holyoke that had those magic fingers and if the kids were good, they got a shiny quarter to fire that puppy up. Wooooo!!!!!

Now, this wasn't just a one time thing. They did this about four times in her life. It sounds strange to me, but I guess if that's what you want to do, I'm not going to stop you.

I don't know. Maybe I shouldn't make fun. I've never actually used a magic fingers bed. Maybe Holyoke would be my vacation spot if I gave it a try.

Please don't hate me if you're from Holyoke. I still love you! I will visit regularly and enjoy all you have to offer. I just don't think I'll spend a week there for my vacation.

If it makes you feel any better, I live in West Springfield and I wouldn't spend a week there for vacation. I think it's a great town, but again, not a vacation hot spot.

OK...Well...I think I'm just digging myself deeper and deeper into a hole. Everybody is going to hate me soon. I'll just quit while I'm only six feet deep...crud...that's about all they need to finish me off...

...help....gulp....

recalls galore

Lopez here and I think I'm getting recalled. I contain too much lead! AND I cause salmonella. I've also been known to cause lethal amounts of awesomeness. Dangerous stuff.

So, infant medicine is getting recalled for "accidental overdose". That's an odd recall. I mean, shouldn't we recall cigarettes for "accidental cancer"? If you use the medicine correctly, then you shouldn't have a problem, right? You can't even say that about cigarettes. Weird recalls.

And something so innocent like Chicken Pot Pie! Say it ain't so! What is going on in the world?

I think there was a recall on my biceps because I don't have any. I swear I should have them. They must have contained to much lead as well. Get it. Like "going to the gun show", so they're guns and bullets and stuff? Riiiiiiight. This is just getting crazy.

We've got a new secret sound on Monday morning and I'm sure there will be more recalls. Hopefully our weekends won't be recalled.

I'm off to check my apt. for lead.

Enjoy!

The New Post

Ok, just a heads up. The spacing on the post I just did it HUGE! (well, it looks messed up on my computer, I don't know about yours) I couldn't fix it. I blame the stupid picture. Sorry!!!!!!!

Belts, Sweater Vests and Candy

Hi folks. Lopez here.




I got a new belt with Wolverine on it! How cool is that! Why would I want a Wolverine belt? Well, Wolvie's motto is "I'm the best there is at what I do" and what he does is hold up my pants!


If you look at the comments section for the last entry, you'll see a link for a Candy Blog. I'm not kidding. One of my faithful readers helped out and found me a candy blog. It has a ton of great candy stuff on it. Like Lava Balls! I never heard of them, but they sound great, right? They are big, hot cinnamon jelly beans. And, c'mon, how fun is it to say Lava Balls?





Finally, we have a picture of me in my sweater vest. Yep. It's real. here it is:


Who's that stud? Well, if I have to tell you, then you don't deserve to know. Ha! Kidding. It's me. Obviously. Who poses like that? If you look REALLY closely, you can see the dimple in the tie. That took me hours. That's my exciting life...woooo...






Yeah, I get to wear that snappy outfit for my latest play. In case you're curious, I'll plug it here. The first two weekends in November at City Stage on their smaller stage. Fri. and Sat at 8 and Sun. at 3 for both weekends. It's called "The Heidi Chronicles" and it rocks because everybody else in the play is awesome.






Ok, enough. End of narcissism.

Thank you faithful "people who read the blog" (bloggees? If I'm a blogger, then bloggee seems to make sense, right?)
You're the only reason I write ridonkulous posts all the time. I hope you're enjoying them.






I'm off to work on my tie dimple.

Enjoy

Spice-Force One Powers Activate

Hi! Lopez here!

The Spice Girls are on tour. I'm sure you're excited. We talked about their tour plane this morning. They call it "Spice-Force One". That sounds like a cartoon to me! Wanna hear my pitch? I knew you would.

Ok, so the Spice Girls are just your regular, everyday international pop star group at night, but during the day, they are international spies with super powers!

They each have a pink communicator on their arms and when the United Nations needs them to solve crime, their communicators start to sing "Tell me what you want, what you really, really want".

They shout their battle cry, "Spice-Force Powers Activate!" (I swear I didn't steal that from the Wonder Twins) And they each have powers related to their name.

Posh Spice: She can zap you with "Fashion Rays" that come out of her eyes. When you get hit, you are wearing hip, new clothes.

Baby Spice: She screams with her fearsome "Baby Cry" which can make even the toughest man cry for his mommy.

Scary Spice: Just look at her. One look and you run away frightened. She doesn't even have to change or anything.

Sporty Spice: She can challenge anyone to any sport and win. You don't know why this rocks? Here's an example:

International Jewel Thief: Ok, Sporty, I challenge you to a game of basketball. If you win, I surrender. If I win, I get to go free.

Sporty: You're on!

The End. Because she always wins!

Ginger Spice: She can use the amazing powers of ginger to soothe a sore throat. Well, I hear ginger is good for that sort of thing. It's in tea and stuff. She might throw a lemon at you to help too. She doesn't really do much. She just usually drives the Spice-Mobile or something.

How about that! Awesome idea, I know. I should sell it. Can you imagine the marketing possibilities? I bet they'll pay me millions of dollars for this brilliant idea. It will be on Saturday morning cartoons before you know it.

I trust you all not to steal it.

I have to go make my millions.

Spice-Force Powers Activate!

Enjoy!

WMAS gets its Groove Back!

Hey folks. Regular Lopez here.

I say regular because Groovy Lopez was in the studio this morning. I don't know if you heard it, but you must have seen his hair. It's such a large fro that it is one of three things visible from space. The other two are the great wall of China and my awesomeness.

If you've never met Groovy, he's a distant cousin of mine and looks like he just walked out of the 70's. He smells of Hai Karate and knows how to get the ladies. He's much too cool for me.

He's been gone so long because he was on a mercy mission to help save small countries with children starving for grooviness. Did you know that for the price of a cup of coffee a day, you can give a child the feeling of being groovy? You can adopt an ungroovy child and help him or her get the groove back in their life. We'll send you pictures to show you the progress of their fro and you can watch them get taller as they get more inches added to their platform shoes. It brings a tear to you eye, doesn't it?

Groovy knows the ladies like a man who gives back to the world. He's not selfish. He'll share his grooviness.

I think that's all for today. I'm off to learn some moves from the master.

Enjoy!

The Bar

Hey folks, Lopez here.

Ok, so the conundrum wanted to find out what soap, granola and candy had in common. The answer is that they are all bars. Some people got it right away, but others, like me, did not.

I can get all those things in other forms that are not bar-like. I agree that they do all come in bar form, but I didn't think of that right away because when I think of candy, I think of gummy worms. They only become a bar when you leave them in the car to melt, and then let them cool again. That is an awesome snack, but not what I think of right away.

That is all. That is my reasoning for not getting it right away. I'm just telling you it's ok if you didn't get this conundrum right away. We still love you. Even if the "bar folk" are making fun of us.

I talk about candy a lot on this blog, don't I? It's more like the Candy Blog. I wonder if there is a candy blog? That would be awesome. What would be even more awesomer would be a website that showed pictures of candy and you could just reach into the computer and pull it out and eat it. That sounds very Willy Wonka. It also sounds very good. Let's get to work on that.

Ok, that is all for today. I hope you enjoy the Columbus day if you have it off.

I'm going to melt some gummy worms.

Enjoy!

Not The Box!

Hi folks. Lopez here.

Did you know Dina keeps old boyfriends in a box? It's true. She said it! We were talking about her first boyfriend and she said she wanted to see what he looked like when they dated and she went to her memory box, which apparently is huge, to see. My first thought was, "Wow...there must be a LOT of pictures of old boyfriends to warrant such a large box." To which Dina replied, "Actually, it's just the old boyfriends." HA! That's scary.

Is it ok to keep a box of memories from old boyfriends? I guess guys might not care as much, but if a girl ever sees pictures of a guy's ex, I'm sure she would give him a stern look.

Anyways, it's Friday! I hope you have wonderful plans for your weekend.

And be careful guys, you don't want Dina putting you in the box.

Oh, and be here for the conundrum at 8:50 on Monday morning. If somebody gets the right answer, there is going to a throw-down. Me versus Dina. It's going to be crazy.

I'm off to get ready for battle.

Enjoy!

see-me-P-O!

With R2D2!

That was at the Big E. Pretty rad, right? He was made out of Lego blocks.

Speaking of being a geek, you should watch "The Big Bang Theory" on CBS. They are so much like me, except I'm not a genius like they are. Though, I have had arguments about Superman and other superheroes just like the guys on the show.

It was funny because I had on my superman pj's and Sheldon was wearing the exact same Superman shirt! Isn't that cool? Yes. Yes it is.

That's all today. I have to save up $300 so I can buy the entire series of Star Trek: The Next Generation on DVD. You can donate to the fund if you'd like. I take cash, personal checks and gold-pressed latinum (it's from Star Trek).

Sorry this post was full of geekness...sometimes I just have to let it out.

I'm off to the holodeck (another Star Trek reference).

Engage! (another one...I'm so sorry!)

Crushin'

Hi there! Lopez here! hehe...

I don't know if you've heard, but we're giving away tickets to see Hairspray at the Springfield Symphony Hall. The fun thing is that we are making people tell us about their first crush to win tickets. It's been fun so far. If you want to share your story, please do! I can't give you tickets here, but we'd still love to hear about it!

We also talked about people finishing their holiday shopping already! What!!!!! How can you possibly be done?! Dina is done. It just doesn't make any sense. How does anybody even start before National Bosses Day (Oct. 16)? That's just crazy. Have you finished your holiday shopping already?

I think stores should NOT be allowed to promote more than one holiday at a time. That should be national law. In fact, I am making it a law right now. I studied law-making in college and know that as long as something is written down, it becomes law. That's just the way it works. It seems silly and the reason a lot of laws aren't followed is because of scissors.

That's all I got today. I don't know what I'm rambling about, so I should go.

I'm off to make some new laws. "From this day forth, all candy will be given to Lopez. Thank you."

Enjoy!

The Big E

Hey folks, Lopez here.

I went to the Big E on Friday and had a wonderful time. I've never really gone to get food there before. I went once a few years ago to see Journey play, but that was it. This time I ate and followed Dina's list.

I found out that fried tempura, fried cheese curds, sweet potato fries and New Hampshire kettle corn are all awesome! Those were a few of my favorite things.

I also kicked butt on skee-ball. I had to get 200 to win a prize. My first game was just a warm-up. I got 190. The second game, well, let's just say that I BLEW IT UP! Actually, I picked the machine with the broken winner buzzer. Yeah, so I made up for it with big "Take that Skee-Ball!!!". Then I got a big frog that my date got to carry around.

If you didn't know, there is a finesse to skee-ball. It's a smooth bump off the left side to ricochet into the middle hole. I've got the flava when it comes to skee-ball.

That's my big news. Dina and I fought about Big E food on and off the air. I was not impressed with the Maine baked potato and the cream puff. Dina is convinced that my taste buds are just wrong. They were both good, but nothing special that I can't get anywhere else.

Well, I'm off to skool some skee. I have no idea what that means, but it's fun to say.

Enjoy!
