Jessica and I have a relatively new cat. The cat is a rescue and surprisingly very well potty trained. Too well as a matter of fact. The cat won't go number two outside, or at least it prefers to go inside. It has had a couple of incidents on the carpet which has now made Loco Coco, her name, transition to an outside cat with indoor privileges. We have tried numerous, non lethal deterrents and they work ok, but not well enough obviously.
She prefers one area of our carpet, until today. This morning Jess was getting ready for work and I was checking on the morning headlines. I heard the cat meowing, but didn't get up to let her into the living room because I was afraid today would be another carpet poop day. I should have put her out or opened the bathroom door to the litter box, but she had just gone to the bathroom earlier.
So Coco left a nice steaming stinky present on our bed. Animals are such a joy aren't they?

Heaters Needed in Miami?
To give you an idea just how cold it has been region wide here is a story from
A charcoal barbecue grill.
Rescue crews showed up after the mother called 911 when one of the children fainted. She decided to use the barbecue when her husband couldn’t find a heater because they were sold out. No one was seriously injured.
Of course the heaters were sold out, its
NOT A HEATER
I GOT A FEVER...AND THE ONLY CURE IS MORE SNUGGIE
Continuing with the cold weather news, Snuggie Fever
Snuggies totally baffle me. The things have taken off so much that they are temporarily halting advertising of the snuggie. The cold weather has helped push sales so high that they can’t keep up with demand. It’s a good problem to have for Snuggie. Could the Snuggie be next Christmas’s Rage? Outselling Zhu Zhu’s, Wii’s, and everything else?
Of course there is a knock off the snuggie including a $60 electric version called a “toasty” on sale in spring, Bad Timing… There’s also the “Slanket” and the expensive but strangely appealing “Lippi Selk Bag” that looks like a hazmat suit. Sadly, I kind of want one of the Lippi things.

An Example For Those Who Should Be Setting The Example
Newark Residents complaining about getting snow cleared from streets got something they probably didn’t expect… A public servant, that served the public. The servant was the Mayor of Newark
New Year's Eve, barbieblack88 tweeted CoryBooker, the mayor of Newark, to ask when crews were going to clear the streets of snow. Booker responded that they were already out. A few minutes later, BigSixxRaven had a personal plea for Booker: "Can u send someone over 2 my dad's He's going 2 try to shovel. he's 65."
At 7 the next morning, Booker tweeted back: "I will do it myself where does he live?" 20 minutes later, he knocked on the dad's door, shovel and salt in hand and many volunteers in tow. BigSixxRaven tweeted later "My daddy is a happy man," she wrote. "He took pictures of his Mayor shoveling his driveway! lol."
Way to Go Mayor Booker! Thanks for setting the example for politicians world wide. We’ll just forget that whole feud you had with Conan O’Brien.

A man has been jailed on charges he stole $50 from his ex-girlfriend at a western Pennsylvania Wal-Mart store then tried to flee on a store-owned motorized shopping scooter.
Craig David Jr., of
State police Cpl. Chuck Frey says David had just been released from a hospital where he was treated for being hit with a frying pan and a table leg during a domestic dispute Jan. 1. He was still in a hospital gown when he met an ex-girlfriend who agreed to pay for his prescription medication. Instead, police say David grabbed $50 from the woman and scooted away.
David remained in the Fayette County Jail Thursday and doesn't have an attorney.

Today's Question: When referring to the Space Shuttle What is Max Q?
Answer: The Key milestone during a launch when the shuttle goes under the most mechanical or structural stress.
Atlantis Launched today by the way. I was listening to the audio from NASA TV and they mentioned the shuttle was traveling at that moment around 2,000 miles an hour. Whoa...caught me off guard. I knew it went really fast and I know a lot about the shuttle, but think about being in a vehicle as a human being traveling that fast...unreal.

Kristen Stewart of "Twilight" fame is a different type of young celebrity. I gotta say I am happy to see it too. Only 19 she has grown up watching the less than graceful flame outs by Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan and appears to want to avoid all that. She Keeps her private life relatively private and keeps her clothes on too. There's a novel idea. Stewart says it really irks her when others criticize her for not giving everyone the circus (no pun intended Brit Brit) that they expect. So, I am giving some major props to Kristen Stewart for appearing to be level headed, down to earth and wise beyond her years in a zoo like Hollywood. I'm not going to say it is going to inspire me to see the next Twilight movie, but I still respect her
Editors Note: I must say that it at least looks like Britney has grown up quite a bit which makes me happy, I really want the best for these people, Lindsay is another story. The other night Lohan cussed a bartender after he gave her the bill for the two expensive bottles of champagne she downed, I'm assuming with friends, and then said she didn't pay for drinks. She in fact didn't and borrowed a friends credit card to pay up.

-- The three-volume book includes 40 pages devoted to the diseases of horses and 40 pages about algebra – but no information about children.
-- Homo sapiens were sub divided into five varieties: the American, the European, the Asiatic, the African and the monstrous.
-- California was spelled with two "L's" and described as ‘a large country of the West Indies. Unknown whether it is an island or a peninsula.’
-- Toothache cures included drinking laxatives or bleeding in the foot.

~Punked By Pickler!...Come Again?!~
So, Kellie Pickler put on a show for a crowd at the Country Music Hall of Fame this week. While she was warming up they gave her some guitars to sign for charity auctions. She then told her handlers she had finished signing the guitars including that other big black guitar on the other side of the case. That guitar belonged Johnny Cash! Pickler said she didn't recognize the signature and put her John Hancock on the guitar too.
Cue Mass Hysteria and Overall freak out by record reps and her handlers. One called Sharpie immediately to learn the best way to get the marker off the guitar. She then confessed that she had not signed it but her people didn't believe her! (Makes you wonder what they really think of her) She ran off the stage to prove to them she never really signed it.
Kellie Pickler punked someone? She's more cunning than expected. Maybe not as, air headed as once believed. We'll have to watch that one, she had us all tricked.

In Connecticut I reported the story about the chewing gum thieves. Apparently the state is wanting to change its slogan to "Home Deranged Burglars" after this latest story. A man armed with a knife walked into a Grocery Store and stole four blocks of Colby Jack Cheese. I enjoy Colby Jack cheese too, but not enough to steal it.
Anyway, the thief was approached by a manager who tried to stop him, but the thief slashed at the manager and threatened to injure him next time he came into the store. ("Honey? I'm going to the store to pick up those things you wanted and to cut that manager") Thankfully no one was injured and police caught the man shortly there after.
You see when you get rid of the cat burglars, the mouse burglars show up.

~Oh Good Grief!~
So apparently the Harry Potter game Quidditch has taken to college campuses. I have some criticisms, but they would probably be uncharitable. In case you were wondering what this game entails, I have a video below. Make up your own mind on this one.

~Return of the Re gift~
OK, Bad Economy = Good excuse to re gift. A new survey out this year says that 36% of adults will re gift. That is up 5% from last year and 12% from two years ago. That's assuming people are just starting rather than just finally fessing up to years of the practice. So go ahead and blow the dust off that fruit cake you got seven years ago and pass it on. They never go bad anyway, fruit cakes are going to outlast roaches.
~Grand Theft Spearmint~
Reports from Connecticut indicate a rise in chewing gum theft. Yes, chewing gum theft. Word is there is a black market for all kinds of things and one of those is gum. One man stole $800 worth of Orbit gum in March and a recent theft on November 1st had a man stealing $175. Thieves are using the gum to advance their other bad habits of drugs and alcohol, according to some officials.
Interestingly enough, a story was also out today about chewimg gum possibly being an appetite deterrant and causing those who chew gum in the morning to eat 68 less calories in the day. If that's true, why isn't anyone questioning Richard Simmons about the gum thefts?

A cat in Iowa has contracted and recovered from Swine Flu. Unfortunately two ferrets in Oregon and Nebraska did not fare so well. Doctors are saying there is no proof that the virus can jump from household pets to owners and vice versa.

~Seat Belt Mounted Air Bags~
Ford Motor Company is adding seat belt mounted air bags to the 2011 Explorer SUV next fall. The belts have a cylindrical air bag that stretches from the buckle to the shoulder and is inside a pocket sewn into the belt. It inflates more gently than other bags in the front and with cooler air that is safer for children.
The belt bag will distribute crash forces across the occupants chest with less chance of injury and supports the occupants neck and head.
On further thought, how much will it cost to replace one that deploys, it costs a ton to replace a front bag. Is it worth the cost?
With air bags on almost everything now, how long until we get air bags for our coffee cups? "My car was totaled, but I didn't lose one drop of my Double Espresso Mocha Choco Rama Lama Ding Dong Ollie Ollie Oxen Free Frappe!"

The Off Beat : What I'm listening to at the moment..
Here is a new section to Five Oclock Jock dealing with what music I am listening to at the moment and sometimes we'll bring in other DJ's here at the station to tell us what's currently on their favorites list. Some of it you can hear on K98, but not always. Let's get started!
OWL CITY: Ocean Eyes
Spinning right now in the CD Player and on my iPod is Owl City. Everything about this CD is fresh, crisp, and refreshing. I would classify it as pop techno, but not the booty shakin' grind music you might hear in a club. Almost all the tracks have a positive, uplifting feel to them. You would almost think you could take flight after making it all the way through the album.
Favorite Tracks:
1. Cave In: A strong catchy start to the album is all I can say, I just really like this song.
3. Hello Seattle: A tip of the hat to the northwest with some great imagery and music that makes me smile.
6. Dental Care: This is a fun song and he really turns some phrases lyrically in this song that are really impressive and creative, though that isn't rare for the CD overall.
7. Meteor Shower: Wow! The shortest song on the album, but emotionally one of the largest. It shouts hope in the few lyrics that are sung and just engulfs me in wonder. (not meaning to get to poetic about it) Some pretty Biblical concepts really stand out in this song.
9. Fireflies: How can you not like this song?
10. The Tip of the Iceberg: Epic and Fun
11. Vanilla Twilight: Laid back, sweet, and sad
12. Tidal Wave: Its a hopeful song and I am always a fan of that.
So, I am pretty much a fan of the whole CD. Check out Owl City: Ocean Eyes and I think if it winds up in your stereo or iPod its gonna get well worn.

Florida-Suspects in an attempted burglary at a Carroll apartment Friday night weren't too difficult to identify.
A resident called 911 to report two men with their faces painted black were trying to break into an apartment.
Moments later, Carroll police officers pulled over a car matching the suspects' vehicle a couple blocks away and found the two occupants with faces blackened by a permanent marker.
Matthew Allan McNelly, 23, and Joey Lee Miller, 20, were arrested without incident.
Police said the caller described two males with painted faces and wearing black hooded sweatshirts attempting to enter an apartment

FORT WALTON BEACH, FL -- Okaloosa County Sheriff's deputies arrested a man for shoplifting after he tried to steal clothing and darts from the Fort Walton Beach Walmart.
The defendant allegedly picked up a camouflage hat, jacket, and a set of darts. He pulled the tags off the camouflage hat and jacket, put them on, and then hid the darts on his person.
He then walked past the registers and out of the store. The camouflage failed to hide him from Walmart Loss Prevention officers, who detained and handcuffed him. No word if he thought the camo would hide him from cameras in the store. And Darts? Really? Maybe he’s tired of getting spanked by his buddies down at the bar when they play.
He was arrested later by deputies. It truly is The Redneck Riviera.

There's another "Mad Max" movie in the works. The original film starred MEL GIBSON as Max Rockatansky, an ex-cop set in a future where there was little gas to be had and gangs which preyed on drivers.
According to the Hollywood Reporter, the film has actually been in the works for more than a decade, and at one point Mel was supposed to reprise his role. But those days are gone, and now it looks like TOM HARDY --whose claim to fame was playing Handsome Bob in GUY RITCHIE's "RocknRolla"-- will be Mad Max and CHARLIZE THERON is in talks to co-star.
The new film will be called "Fury Road," and is set shortly after "Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome."
Will Tina Turner Show Back Up? We Can Only Hope!
There will also be a "Men in Black 3." The Hollywood Reporter says Sony has hired the guy who wrote "Tropic Thunder" for BEN STILLER (oh boy...) but there's still no word on whether WILL SMITH or TOMMY LEE JONES --both of whom were in the original-- will be back for the sequel.
