Qdoba Tries To Buy Our Endorsement
January 25th, 2010 · 5 Comments

The PR firm (in Colorado) representing Qdoba, rather than bother checking out our sites, just sent us a press release promoting some new combo offer or whatever to help Americans be less fat. That’s fine and dandy. But what gets my goat is that the PR professional who [...]

January 22nd, 2010 · 2 Comments
Just figured out why Dan Spangler was really canned from WBKI. This: FROM THE WBKI FAKEBOOK It’s because he wouldn’t dress like that and dance to Beyonce’s Single Ladies. UPDATE: Woopsiedaisy. Looks like the station nixed their fancy sexytime pics from Fakebook. What a shame.
