By: Peter Gilroy | @NessKids Everyone has that one neighbor in their town. Whether it's the nice grass they have in their lawn or being able to keep up with the garbage better on a weekly basis, it's always something for them to fire back at me. "Well, why me?", I wonder sometimes. I'm an up-standing citizen, I follow the rules and trim the hedges every now and again. Sure we can get annoyed by one neighbor once in a while, but how is it that all my neighbors are asses?

By: Peter Gilroy | @NessKids As if we just didn't have enough holidays in the USA we would have to worry about just another one. And as annoying as a new holiday may be, another one may be just as acceptable as the next one. I'm talking about the Irish Heritage in the NEPA. It seems like not enough people in the area are here to appreciate such a tradition not only once a year, but they don't celebrate any another time. By: Peter Gilroy | @NessKids Hello and good morning on May Day!! I got my coffee, heated up my donut and said good morning to all outside! But no response? Okay, so I don't say hello to everyone every day, but what was wrong with just giving a big welcome to the foreshadow of good weather? Joe next door just gave a good stare, nothing in return to my May Day battlecry, so I now deem today as the official "Hey" Day. What better time of the year than today to just give a friendly hello to all who pass? I have a long list of errands today so I know I'll be running into a lot of people to test out this new holiday. First stop, the eye doctor. The receptionist at the door loves me so I'm sure she'll love the idea and carry on this tradition. I have a couple of other stops including the grocery store and the mall, so at least 60% of the people will catch on to the new trend.
My only tip of advice to all those receiving the "Hey", give a "Hey" back. I mean, why not? Here's to a new holiday!! Now I just have to find a good pair of slacks for the day. By: Peter Gilroy By: Peter Gilroy | @NessKids Grenadine, Moonshine, Potato Vodka. Hey, we heard it all. There are enough smart people in this world to make the next breakthrough in any invention, but only a select few of those people are Irish, or Russian or something, to make the next alcohol breakthrough. Don't get me wrong, I'm right there with the public. I'll take a heavy drink or 10 any day (and I have in my day), but what's the next step of having that 10 drinks in 10 minutes to 10 seconds? That's right, powdered alcohol. I can't wait to get my hands on this stuff. This is going to be so much fun for the next couple days. Palcohol. I wonder where I can order it? I could take it to the bar with me and no one would even know about it. I'll buy a beer, and I'll be the life of the party in minutes. People won't know what hit them. I won't even know what hit me. It makes you wonder, though, is our youth completely out of touch of the real world of drinking? I don't think they'll appreciate the "buying the next round" ritual as much as the kids 5 years ago did. The conversations will go from "let's get a drink" to "let's kill ourselves" in only seconds rather than hours. There's a lot of fun that can happen within those hours before the suicidal thoughts and whatnot come about. Whatever, I'm letting loose when I find this stuff. Don't tell dear Paula!! By: Peter Gilroy By: Peter Gilroy | @NessKids As we all know since a week ago, Letterman is scheduled to leave his position as a late night host in around a year from now. An abundance of questions have been overflowing the tabloids and social media feeds for the past 7 days asking, "who's gonna do it?". Questions no more, for we have our answer just today. Stephen Colbert? By: Peter Gilroy | @NessKids One of my favorite, almost unknown, holidays of the year is upon us today. No Housework Day is here and I'm celebrating like never before, and it's in this weeks edition of Entertainment 570. There isn't really any origin to the holiday or where it really came from, also makes you wonder why the date is when it is considering we have spring cleaning coming right around the corner. Maybe it's a day to get mentally prepared for the hell we will be experiencing for that big cleaning day. To put it short, it's almost another way of calling it "opposite" day. In other words, if you do chores around the house, take the day off and let someone else do them. If you don't do any chores, however, you must take those responsibilities so you can show appreciation to the person that usually does them. So how will I be celebrating this weary, dull day? Well it won't be so dull because Paula and I both have different responsibilities around the house, so we're doing the ole' switcharoo. I'll take care of her several 7-9 cats (not really sure how many) while she takes care of the dog. She'll cook the supper as long as I clean the dishes. I'll do the laundry as long as she clips the hedges. And I'll even polish our jewelry as long as she cleans the weaponry. She'll have her work cut out for her, though, with the 34 different firearms and 63 knives, hatchets and cleavers I have. It'll be enough to keep her busy while I'm taking care the damn cats. At least she could take care of the dog while she's doing her chores, sheesh. And that's entertainment for today in the ole' 570. By: Peter Gilroy By: Peter Gilroy | @NessKids So tonight was the last night to Fox's hit Sitcom, How I Met Your Mother. The show lasted 9 seasons which is quite impressive considering sitcoms aren't the way they used to be in my time. I Love Lucy and MASH were what I remember the most. Mork and Mindy. I then thought to myself that I might be getting too old fashioned and that I would give the show a shot and give my two cents on the ending of it. I had asked for Paula to join me but she was too busy counting her cards again. So it was just me, the TV Guide and my old buddy Rockford. Of course, I brought extra treats for him. Unfortunately, I had fallen asleep after Jeopardy and hadn't woken up until just recently. I figured I'd look online to look at a spoiler to see how the Mother was Met. Turns out there was a Stepmother story of some sort with some other woman that was a part of some other relationship. Just seems like another one of those sitcoms that are on the television today. I guess I'll go on back to bed, Paula will be there and so will the dog. By: Peter Gilroy By: Peter Gilroy | @NessKids I would have my own photograph of my personal collection of fireworks but I don't know how to put my photos into the internet yet, Chuck still has to sit down with me and show me how to do it. The point is clear though. I was looking for something to do after I was to pour myself a bowl of milk with sugar in it and remembered something to do today for entertainment in the ole' 570. Almost one year old fireworks have not only been sitting around in the basement for about a year, but they've been sitting in the back of the corner of my mind for the same amount of years. By: Peter Gilroy | @NessKids Top of the evenin' to ya, eh lads? I ate my Irish soda bread this morn with my Irish green tea. Then for lunch I had a bowl of Irish split pea soup with ham and potatoes for lunch. Guess what I'm having for dinner? That's right, real authentic Irish corned beef and cabbage. What can I do after though? What's in store for me for the rest of the day for entertainment? By: Chase McDougalburg | @NessKids Another year of The Oscars has passed by and a whole year awaits for me to get another chance at trying to win the big award... who am I kidding. That ship set sail a long time ago. I don't know why I'm still talking about The Oscars, maybe I really am just that bitter about what happened so long ago. *Sigh* I guess I might as well tell the story. |
