It's Official! Dr. "East Side" Dave McDonald Is A Member Of MUFON!

Yes, MUFON!!  That's the Mutual UFO Network!!  Our mission is the scientific study of UFO's for the benefit of Humanity.  And now this card proves that I am an official member and registered Ufologist!!  From now on, feel free to call me Doctor "East Side" Dave........or simply Dr. David.  Either or those two should get my head to turn.  Now if you'll excuse me, I have to research some noises (probably UFO's) in my backyard.  I heard some clanging (most likely UFO's) there a few minutes ago.

UPDATE - The "noises" were "my children" (definitely UFO's) playing wiffle ball.  Peace, Earthlings!!

Oh, Friday, You Sweet, Sweet Animal! It's Good To See You Again!

It's been a long week for the Dave Man, Friend-O's, I ain't gonna lie.  But, alas, Friday is here.  And life is good.  When I officially see Friday today after our morning show has ended on Jersey's legendary WRAT, 95.9 FM, I'm gonna pet the holy heck out of it.  I'm gonna whisper things like, "I've missed you, Friday" into its ear.....before realizing that Friday is not a creature, person, or physical object...but rather a day of the week.  It cannot be touched, nor spoken to.  Ah!  But it CAN be felt, dogsie!!  TGIF!!

Welcome To The Jungle! Baseball & Cinema In The Afternoon!

Man, I'm simultaneously watching the Yankees play a day game and Apocalypse Now, Francis Ford Coppola's epic and trippy film about the Vietnam War.  And while very fun, viewing both the Yanks and Apocalypse at the same time can get confusing.  For instance, I could have sworn that I saw a bugged-out Dennis Hopper (wearing too many cameras around his neck) try to steal second base.  Furthermore, is my mind playing tricks on me or did left-fielder Brett Gardner just rise up out of a mud-river and slay Marlon Brando with a sword?  And when did the Yankees change their seventh-inning song to "The End" by the Doors?  The horror!!

Kitty Needs The Milk AND The Rock!!

Kitty needs milk.  You have any milk?  Kitty needs rock.  WRAT.com has the rock.  So all we need is the milk.  I'm coming over to your house ASAP to get Kitty the milk.  She's got the rock covered.  See you soon.

No Sleep And No Sleep Make Dave A Crazy Person Boy........

I'm feeling a bit like Jack Nicholson in The Shining this morning, sleep-deprived and all insane-like, throwing a rubber ball against the wall of a spacious hotel.  I don't know if it was the watching of the news coverage for nine straight hours, or the A.D.D. acting up, or the Dave-Is-Just-Having-One-Of-Those-Going-Nuts nights, but whatever it was, I am a little unstable today.  Anyway, let's have a good day!  WRAT.com!!

I Am Still Watching The New Star Wars Trailer (Over And Over Again).

It's official......I've gone berserk.  It's been about eleven days or so since the premier of the second, full-length, Star Wars trailer (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) and I can't stop watching it.  Kind of like when Rain Man would obsess over that Abbott & Costello routine or The People's Court, I can't take my eyes away from YouTube with this damned trailer.....it's so bloody awesome.  I'm basically in a self-induced, Clockwork Orange-type-of-scenario where I just sit in a straight jacket and view lightsabers and droids all day.  Contact someone if you don't hear from me in a couple of days.....as I've probably begun eating myself.

C.C. Stands For Cap'n Crunch.

C.C. Sabathia has been decent for the Yankees this year.  In a loss to the heavy-hitting Tigers recently, for example, he pitched eight, complete innings and gave up just two runs (though he received the loss because the Yanks can't hit for beans).  But yesterday against the Mets, he got shlacked.  Come on, mang.  After winning Game 1 of the regular-season Subway Series, the Yankees' mojo was flying, and C.C. took a large Cap'n Crunch poop in our mouths, losing badly to the Metropolitans.  Not good.  Tonight will be the rubber match betwixt the two teams.  AND, Game Of Thrones will be on.  This puts the Dave Man in an impossible spot, as I need to watch both........I have an idea......I'll simply clone myself.  Does anyone one out there have a cloning machine?  If so, DM me on Twitter (@EastSideDave).  Gracias.  Later!!

The Yankees Need Southpaw Specialist, Dave McDonald.

Yeah, I said it.  Why can't I be one of those left-handed, junk-ball pitchers who comes out for merely ONE lefty hitter (I'm looking at YOU, David Ortiz), and get the guy out with my off-speed stuff.  I'm ready, Yankees, if you're listening.  I only ask for a guaranteed contract of seven years worth 330 million dollars.  You're welcome.

It's Official: The Dave Man Has Joined M.U.F.O.N.

What is MUFON, you say?  It is the Mutual UFO Network - an organization that has existed since 1969 which contains over 70,000 files of the investigation of aliens, clandestine wings of the U.S. government, and perhaps the secret pact made by our human leaders and extraterrestrials.  There.  It's out there.  And now the the Dave Man, "East Side" Dave McDonald, is an official member.  So if you see me whisked away by men in black in the middle of the night, disappearing suddenly, you know what happened.  Have a nice weekend......and look up for the truth.  Soeth sayseth:  Davey Mac, Registered Ufologist.

A Weekend Of The First-Place Yankees Vs. The First-Place Mets = Baseball Heaven.

I've asked my pal, Derek Jeter Puppet, for some solid, in-game analysis regarding the Yankees - Mets regular season Subway Series this weekend.  He cited two reasons for his reluctance to comment: 1.) He has his website (The Puppets' Tribune) to run and 2.) He's just a puppet, and is not qualified for true-blue baseball commentary.  Anyway, Davey Mac saying: what a fantastic few days of ball games, sports fans!!  Peace!!

Have A Sporty Grand Weekend, Champs!

That's right!  That's the greatest of all time, Muhammad Ali, being interviewed by Howard Cosell, with none other than "East Side" Dave McDonald photo-bombing the two legends.  In fact, according to the world's leading fact source, Swackbag.com, this is the first photo-bomb in the history of the world.  Shortly afterwards, the three would form Davey, Cosell & Muhammad, a folk-music trio that would last for seven minutes.  Have a great weekend!!

Throwback Thursday - Little East Side Dave: Odd & Evil From Day One.

What else can you say about little East Side Davey Mac in this picture?  He looks insane.  What's with the hands?  Is this pose some sort of weird tribute to Steve Martin?  If so, it fails miserably.  It comes across more like a child who has Satan's top three demons possessing his body.  Look away from this photo ASAP or risk the chance of YOUR soul being inhabited by Lucifer.  A good day to you.
