6:00 AM:  We are all excited for the 3 day weekend and know you probably are too. It’s going to be a record high today with the temps near 95 degrees, but it was already in the 100’s this time last year.  Sandy’s daughter is almost 1 year old, and her birthday party is coming up. Sandy had a cool idea to write Landry a letter every year on her birthday and to keep them in his safe until she graduates and then to give her all of the letters. His wife Tricia loved the idea and wondered where he got the idea. He is now convinced Tricia thinks he has no original thoughts because she couldn’t believe that he came up with that idea on his own.  The oil spill in the Gulf has now surpassed the Exxon oil spill.  The biggest fear now is that hurricane season is coming, and they have no idea who the oil slicks will react with the hurricanes. Rapper/actor 50 Cent is playing a cancer stricken football player for an upcoming role in a film, and he is unrecognizable. He got all of his tattoos removed with a laser and has lost 50 lbs by doing a liquid only diet and 3 hours of cardio a day.  If you want to see how sick he looks, you can see the picture on Sara’s blog.

6:15 AM: Sara went on a date yesterday for her “10 dates in 10 days”, but it was a little different than the rest have been. She didn’t know anything about her date except for his name. She brought her cousin with her on the date because she is in town visiting Sara. The guys think what she did is ridiculous, but Alex does think it’s kind of a plus for the guy because he went on a date with not one, but two girls! He is an engineer who went to UT, and grew up in LaGrange.  He was a really nice guy, and even paid for both of the girl’s food and drink.

6:30 AM: Four things you need to know with Sara. The Coen Brothers movie “True Grit” will be filmed downtown today, and east 9th street between Congress and Brazos will be closed. They have transformed the street back into the way it might look during the Civil War era. Alicia Keys is pregnant with her boyfriend, rapper Swizz Beats’ child. Gary Coleman has been hospitalized after a fall and is said to be in critical condition.

6:40 AM: Happy Birthday today to Michael Oher (24), Elisabeth Hasselbeck (33), Kylie Minogue (42), John Fogerty (65), Colbie Calliat (25), and Krista Miller from Scrubs. Headlines of the day. The most tattooed person in the world is Julia Nuss who is 55. She started getting tattoos 25 years ago because of a skin condition. She has 95% of her body covered in tattoos.  On her hip she has tattoos of Lucille Ball, Desi Arnaz, and Jed Clampett. The average person shows up to work 3x a week with a hangover. Alex said he used to be “that guy” when he was in his partying phase.  Sandy had a great time last night emceeing the Wounded Warrior Dinner, which was a benefit for the men and women of our armed forces who have been injured in battle. Sandy met many amazing people last night and was so humbled to be in their presence.

7:00 AM:  80’s megamix to kick of the “revenge of the 80’s weekend”—shout out to all of the kids who are about to be out of school for the summer, the men and women of the U.S. armed forces, the teachers who have been working hard all year and are about to get a break, and the local law enforcement officers would will be working hard this weekend to keep Austin safe!

7:10 AM: The week in review is all of the best moments of the week edited together by Alex.  This week there were some hilarious moments, including; baby T Pain, Jesse James mixed the “the cry of the century” , Sara’s date recaps, Alex’s admission to owning multiple pound puppies as a child, and JB telling us about walking through one of the new body scanners at the Kansas City Airport.

7:20 AM: Cecily reviews Sex and the City 2 for us and Prince of Persia.  Her review of SATC2; just don’t…grade of a D. Prince of Persia; bad accent by Jake Gyllenhaal, but loves him being shirtless the entire movie. Good action, but not many other redeeming qualities….grade of a C-. Get him to the Greek; P Diddy stole the show, very funny, but not as funny as McGruber…grade of D.  

7:30 AM: Four things you need to know with Sara. Sara plays audio for us. A kid recorded his mom watching the American Idol finale, and she was very, very upset that Lee won and Crystal didn’t. The best quote is when she says “oh my God, my whole life is ruined”.  Sandy plays a recording of a Texas woman who is upset that a tornado watch interrupted her ability to view “Criminal Minds”. She was very upset because of the interruption and called the TV station to complain.  Crystal Bowersox and her boyfriend broke up right before the finale show of American Idol.  Rapper/actor 50 Cent is playing a cancer stricken football player for an upcoming role in a film, and he is unrecognizable. He got all of his tattoos removed with a laser and has lost 50 lbs by doing a liquid only diet and 3 hours of cardio a day.  He went from 216 pounds to 160 pounds, and if you want to see how sick he looks you can see the picture on Sara’s blog.

7:45 AM: Why should your life be made into a movie? Today is Michael Oher’s birthday, and he is the person whose life story inspired the hit movie “The Blind Side”. We wonder if any of our listeners have stories from their lives that would make a great movie. We heard from a woman who was kidnapped as a teenager and taken on a week long cross-country trip by her kidnapper, a woman who grew up in the witness protection program, and a girl who went from an abusive childhood and a teen pregnancy to marrying a Marine and having a happy life.

8:05 AM: Sandy’s headlines. The idiot criminal of the day is a 39 year old man who lives near Seattle. He committed a string of home burglaries and did the same thing every time (including pooping in the home). He finally left his dirty underpants at the most recent robbery, and the police ran his dirty underwear, and through the DNA figured out who he was.  An 8 year old was chained to a street post by his father, and his dad tried to auction him off. This happened in China, and claims that he wasn’t trying to make money, but was trying to find a new home for his son.

8:15 AM: The week in review is all of the best moments of the week edited together by Alex.  This week there were some hilarious moments, including; baby T Pain, Jesse James mixed the “the cry of the century” , Sara’s date recaps, Alex’s admission to owning multiple pound puppies as a child, and JB telling us about walking through one of the new body scanners at the Kansas City Airport.

8:20 AM: Sandy and Alex made a bet yesterday at Jason’s Deli that cost Alex lunch for them both. Alex thought a woman across the restaurant was their former co-worker Cat, and they bet lunch on it. So Sandy went over to talk to the woman. Turns out she was NOT their friend, but the funny things is that she says she gets mistaken for that particular woman all of the time!

8:30 AM: Four things you need to know with Sara. The oil spill in the Gulf has now surpassed the Exxon oil spill.  The biggest fear now is that hurricane season is coming, and they have no idea who the oil slicks will react with the hurricanes. The Coen Brothers movie “True Grit” will be filmed downtown today, and east 9th street between Congress and Brazos will be closed until 11 pm tonight. They have transformed the street back into the way it might look during the Civil War era. Alicia Keys is pregnant with her boyfriend, rapper Swizz Beats’ child. Gary Coleman has been hospitalized after a fall and is said to be in critical condition.

8:45 AM: Yesterday Max Cannon visited the show to talk to us about a fundraising event this weekend he’s throwing for “Bikes for Kids”. It’s Saturday in Cedar Park, and is going to be fun for the whole family. Go to www.maxcannon.com for all the details.  If you can’t go to the event or aren’t interested, you can still donate to bikes for kids on Max’s website.

9:00 AM:  Yesterday we talked about how Sandy has dubbed Alex and his wife “The Fightin’ Francos” because we’ve noticed they fight a lot. They are going to a wedding this weekend, and his wife wanted to stay at the resort because there is a swim up bar. The rooms cost $200 a night, so he didn’t want to pay for it. He told her he’d set up a swim up bar at their apartment complex pool. She got mad when he said he’d put a stool in the pool and make her cocktails at home at their apartment.  Today we get his wife on the phone to hear HER side of the story. His wife agrees that he is a “fun killer”, like we accused him of being yesterday.  She says anytime she is excited about something, he somehow finds a way to minimize it. We had a listener named Edward call in with a great idea for Andria. He says next time Alex is excited about a Nascar race and wants to go to one, that she should tell him they’re staying home and they can race remote control cars in the parking lot.

9:15 AM: The week in review is all of the best moments of the week edited together by Alex.  This week there were some hilarious moments, including; baby T Pain, Jesse James mixed the “the cry of the century” , Sara’s date recaps, Alex’s admission to owning multiple pound puppies as a child, and JB telling us about walking through one of the new body scanners at the Kansas City Airport.

9:30 AM: Four things you need to know with Sara. Gary Coleman has been hospitalized after a fall and is said to be in critical condition. Rapper/actor 50 Cent is playing a cancer stricken football player for an upcoming role in a film, and he is unrecognizable. He got all of his tattoos removed with a laser and has lost 50 lbs by doing a liquid only diet and 3 hours of cardio a day.  He went from 216 pounds to 160 pounds, and if you want to see how sick he looks you can see the picture on Sara’s blog.

9:35 AM: Happy Birthday today to Michael Oher (24), Elisabeth Hasselbeck (33), Kylie Minogue (42), John Fogerty (65), Colbie Calliat (25), and Krista Miller from Scrubs. :  80’s megamix to kick of the “revenge of the 80’s weekend”—shout out to all of the kids who are about to be out of school for the summer, the men and women of the U.S. armed forces, the teachers who have been working hard all year and are about to get a break, and the local law enforcement officers would will be working hard this weekend to keep Austin safe!

9:45 AM: This weekend Sara will have her last date for her “10 dates in 10 days”, and she has enjoyed doing all of the dates. She feels like it’s helped her be less nervous on dates in the future.  Alex is still holding onto his “redneck swim up bar” idea, and thinks he should do it on Tuesday and all of us should come after the show.

The reviews for Sex and the City 2 are in…and it’s possible they’re actually worse than the awful early reviews. The moans practically jump from the page:

  • “Call this sequel callow, garish, ghastly, grisly or grotesque—and it is all of those things, plus borderline-interminable at 146 minutes,” writes Joe Morgenstern for the Wall Street Journal.

 

  • “We start seeing the sexually free Samantha as utterly pathetic,” opines Mick LaSalle in the San Francisco Chronicle, recalling a scene where she mimes oral sex on a hookah pipe. “Get real, folks. If a man wants a woman who’ll behave in public like a 20-year-old prostitute, he’ll find an actual 20-year-old prostitute.”

 

  • “The zipper is broken, the heel has snapped, the Botox has hit the brain,” writes Julia Baird in Newsweek, proving it’s not just male reviewers who hated the “utterly lame” film. The characters’ self-involvement is “nauseating,” their obsession with expensive clothes and shoes “gross.”

 

  • “Some of these people make my skin crawl,” writes Roger Ebert in the Chicago Sun-Times. “The characters are flyweight bubbleheads living in a world which rarely requires three sentences in a row.” The features “more cleavage than at a pro wrestler’s wedding. And crotches, have we got crotches for you.”

For more of the cattiest lines—including another female reviewer who moans, “I’m not asking for much. I just don’t want to be sick in my mouth.”—click here.

I personally, enjoyed the film. It isn’t going to win an Oscar for anything, but true fans of the show and the first movie will like it.  I had so much fun at Mix 94.7’s premiere party at the new Gold Class Cinemas at The Domain. We got to walk a pink carpet, drink champagne, and enjoy the movie in comfy recliners. Who can beat that?
