Bring On The Snow. Bring It The Bleep On.

The Dave Man is not afraid of snow.  He grew up in Monmouth County, New Jersey...which is the snowiest part of America.  Also, sometimes the Dave Man makes up facts about weather and states.  Anyway, bring the pain, Snow.  The Dave Man will melt you the bleep down with his super-powers.  Lastly, the Dave Man is delusional and thinks he's a super-hero.  Good day.

The Dress Is Trending.........But The T-Shirt SHOULD Be, DavePound.

I don't see the big deal of that Internet dress where people are debating what color it is.  Maybe that's because the Dave Man is pretty damned colorblind and thinks every dress is grey.  In any event, let's knock "The Dress" out of the trending Twitter topics and get the "TShirt" in there.  Gracias.  Enjoy the Morning Rat Race today on Jersey's legendary, WRAT, 95.9 The RAT!!

The Dave Man & David Blaine.

The Destination America Channel is currently airing a David Blaine marathon and my magic-loving arse is ALL in, daddy.  I'm a David Blaine man through and through.  Screw Criss Angel.  He looks like he should be the bass player in Poison or some shmizbo hair metal band of the like.  David Blaine is Coca-Cola to Criss Angel's Jolt.  Now, get me some Sour Patch Kids already and lock me away to watch Mr. Blaine get frozen in ice for five days.  God Bless America.

As The Beatles Said, "Good Morning! Good Morning!"

Did you know that Sir East Side Dave was the original drummer of The Beatles?  It's true.  But after playing a prank on Paul McCartney (David hysterically tied Paul to his bed in a Liverpool motel and lit the room on fire), Dave was dismissed from the band and replaced by Ringo "He Stole Davey Mac's Job" Starr.  Don't think I've forgotten, Ringo!  As an aside, this kind of nonsensical article is what you get when you're on three hours sleep because you watched "The Bachelor" and then Pulp Fiction.  I'll see you on the Morning Rat Race unless you see me first!!!  Hahahahaha!!!  Peace!!

Obi-Wan Kenobi: Bad Gift-Giver

Remember that part in Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope when Obi-Wan Kenobi gives Luke Skywalker a present and says:

I have something here for you. Your father wanted you to have this when you were old enough...It’s your father’s lightsaber.

Um, yeah.......did Obi-Wan forget that this was the same lightsaber that Anakin used to slice up little Jedi children, aka Younglings, in the Jedi kindergarten?  Or that this was the same lightsaber that Obi-Wan got his hands on because he CHOPPED OFF the owner's arm in Episode III?! 

Damn, Obi-Wan.  I don' know who's worse, you as a Space Santa or the Rancor Easter Bunny.

When The Poo Is True Detective Coming Back?

Last year, True Detective came out before Game Of Thrones; but with Game Of Thrones beginning in April, does this mean that the shows have been inverted?  And when the Sam Hill was HBO planning on telling the Dave Man about this development?  I love both shows, but I also lead a very creature-of-habit-type of existence.  Flip-flopping True Detective and Game Of Thrones will probably cause me to start peeing out of my butt and pooping out of Little David.  And we can't have that happen, people.  Good day.

It's Gonna Be A Good Day. No. Screw That. It's Gonna Be A Great WEEK.

Either the Positivity Bug has bitten me on the brain again or I'm having a sleep-deprived moment of lunacy...but I feel GREAT, dogsie.  And I hope YOU do, too.  In fact, I'm gonna pray to my personal gods (Jesus and Yoda), to ensure that you have a spectacular week.  That's because I'm always wishing the best for you.........and I may need to borrow some money from you.  Anyway, have an awesome seven days, Dave Pound!!  See you on the Morning Rat Race!!

The Belmar St. Patrick's Day Parade presented by the The Rat!

We had a phenomenal time during the Belmar St. Patrick's Day Parade with WRAT, 95.9 The RAT!!  Despite the snowy conditions, people came out in droves and supported the Jersey Shore and WRAT!!  Carl & Dave did a live broadcast before heading onto the float with the rest of the RAT crew!!  At one point, I felt like throwing out Tauntaun beads to the brave people who came to watch the parade in the storm!!  In any event, this is the first RAT St. Patrick's Day event during march!!  So click on this WRAT.com link for more RAT St. Patty's Shindigs!!  Erin go bragh, Dave Pound!!

Coming Soon: The Watchers - Jimmy Mac Special!

Greetings, Rebels and Imperials alike!  East Side Dave here!!  If you've regularly listened to the number-one, independent, online sports show, The Davey Mac Sports Program, or our critically-acclaimed, monthly movie show, The Watchers, you've heard the Dave Man espouse the wonderful RebelForce Radio, a podcasting network that revolves around all things Star Wars.  In particular, I especially love their excellent, flagship program, RebelForce Radio, and also their brilliant Star Wars film score show, Star Wars Oxygen: The Music Of John Williams.  Well, we are more than excited to announce that Jimmy Mac, who co-hosts BOTH shows, will be joining The Watchers next week for a HUGE Star Wars special (mixed with a little post-Oscars talk)!!  Look for this very special Watchers episode to be posted Wednesday night or Thursday morning at the latest!!  May the Force be with you, dogsies!!  - Davey Mac

RIP, Leonard Nimoy.

While the Dave Man is a self-admitted Star Wars junkie, I still respect the poop out of the contributions Star Trek did for science fiction and do like the movies (well, episodes 2, 4, 5, and 6, respectively).  Thus, it is with great sadness that we announce that Leonard Nimoy, aka Mr. Spock, has passed away at the age of 83.  Hopefully we can put Mr. Nimoy's body into a space coffin and shoot him onto the newly-forming planet of Genesis where he'll have a chance at coming back to life.  Live long and prosper, Leonard.

The Dave Man Doesn't Like Maverick.

The Dave Man thinks Maverick is a problem.  Why?  Because he's dangerous.  He flies by the seat of his pants.....which I believe means that he flies with his ass.  And that's just downright dangerous, dogsie.  Most people use their hands to steer a plane.  Screw off, Maverick.  Oh, and you killed Goose, by the way.  Sleep well on THAT, Maverick.

PS - Your dad would NOT be proud of you, Goose-Killer.
