Now, let's say you are a female. Gonna guess at least 30, perhaps 32, but not much older than that. Brown hair, glasses, a little bit of paunch on you. You're slightly over candy-coated, but not fat. You drive an early 2000's model blue Ford Taurus. It matches the blue scrubs you're wearing. Yeah, you must work at a local hospital. ACH?
So there you are, Sunday night, presumably on your way to work, considering you have your scrubs on. And, it was about 9:45pm, so you probably started at 10. You realize that you don't have any smokes left. Well THAT is certainly unacceptable! So, you decide to hit the local convenience store. The Sheetz, which is the closest to your work, and right on the way. No time to waste, you've gotta get those Marlboro's so you can light up another one before your shift! Only a few minutes to go!
Or maybe it wasn't smokes, maybe it was lottery tickets?
You fly into the parking lot, darting in-between the islands of gas pumps, headed for that coveted parking space right in front of the door! The speed would generally be considered too fast for a small parking lot, like that of a gas station. Especially given that sight lines aren't very good around the gas pumps.
As you fly past the pumps, you nearly hit a car that was coming in from the side, headed for a farther parking spot. The guy driving obviously could use all the excersize he can get, and parks a bit from the door. The man driving the other car has to swerve and slam on his brakes, as do you, or you would have collided. He proceeds past you, and you fly into that prized parking spot! Yes!
Upon entering the store, you head directly for the line by the register. Not too busy, you're second! The guy that you nearly hit enters the store. You see him approaching, and know that you screwed up, but as he walks thru the sliding doors, you turn and pretend not to notice.
The man is generally not one looking for controversy. Some would argue that point, I suppose, but overall, he likes to lay low. However, you were an idiot, and he feels like calling you out on it, subtly.
As he passes you, en route to order his food around the corner, he says to you, as he walks "good job paying attention there lady, reeeeall good." He doesn't say it with an angry tone, he doesn't mumble it under his breath, and he doesn't shout it for everyone to hear. He says it so you, and probably anyone directly around you, can hear. Without any type of tone, except for maybe a strong dose of sarcasm. But its not anything more than a 'hey...way to be dumb!' kind of thing.
The man never stops to talk with you, not looking for trouble. He continues on about his business. You decide that he REALLY just chapped your ass. Yeah, you know you were wrong in the first place, but he had the NERVE to call you out on it? How DARE he do that?!
Quite cranky now, you say to him, so that he can hear it as he continues to walk away, "Why don't you kiss my ass!"Still moving further, he quips back with a chuckle "heh, don't really feel like it tonight, sorry!", said much louder this time, as he was farther away and you wouldn't have been able to hear him.
You realize that "wow...did I really just say that? I'm 30+ years old, work in the nursing profession, so I obviously have some smarts upstairs, and THAT is what I just said? Kiss my ass?! I feel so dumb! I can do better than that!"
You, no doubt, are ashamed for the weakness of the insult. You could have apologized, explained that you were in a rush. But, the fact that he had the gall to call you out on it, thats what really got you fired up. And in the heat of the moment, you get a big FAIL for your response.
Lesson?
Try some creativity in your comebacks. And learn how to drive :)
Enjoy that cigarette.

WEEKEND UPDATE: SEPT 26 & 27
E.I. E.I. uh-ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....
its a Back In The Day Weekend on Q92, droppin' hot 90's and early 2000's tunes for your listening enjoyment all weekend! AND its by your request too! So call and I'll play ya something good
Also of course, its a new You're Included contest. Win any prize and be included to win tickets and meet & greets to Colbie Caillat's show in Columbus!
GAGA RE-ISSUES "THE FAME"...
LADY GAGA will re-release her debut album, "The Fame", on November 24th. The reissue, which will be called "The Fame Monster", will feature remixes and several new songs, including one called "New York".
KELLY COVERS MILEY...THANK GOD...
KELLY CLARKSON sang MILEY CYRUS' song, "The Climb"...with two other singers named Jill & Kate...for an informal YouTube video.
It was so informal that the girls admit that they could probably use a shower. Not together...necessarily...although, there'd be nothing wrong with that.
It's an acoustic version...with three-part harmony...that definitely seems to be channeling Wilson Phillips. It's naturally, far FAR better than the version by skank-ball, cats-in-heat, can't-sing-worth-a-sh*t Miley. Check it...

KATY PERRY...
I don't know how you get this job, but I'm submitting my application tomorrow. Check out these pics of KATY PERRY'S makeup guy "adjusting" her breasts during a video shoot...
ROCK HALL NOMINATIONS
KISS, THE RED HOT CHILI PEPPERS, GENESIS and rapper LL COOL J are the big names on the latest list of nominees for the ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME.
This is the first year of eligibility for both Chili Peppers and LL Cool J.
For KISS though, this has been a long time coming. This is their first nomination...but they've been eligible since 1999. Until now, they were one of the more infamous snubs year in and year out.
Over that time, KISS has repeatedly mocked the rock hall for ignoring them.
Last year, GENE SIMMONS said, quote, "There are disco bands, rap bands, Yiddish folk song bands in the rock and roll hall of fame, but not Kiss. I believe we have more gold records in America than any other group, but it's OK."
This year's ballot also includes: ABBA, THE STOOGES, THE HOLLIES, reggae legend JIMMY CLIFF, the Queen of Disco, DONNA SUMMER...the '50s girl group THE CHANTELS, '60s singer DARLENE LOVE, and singer / songwriter LAURA NYRO.
The Hollies and Jimmy Cliff are in the same boat as KISS. They've been eligible for years, but never nominated. The rest have made it this far before.
Right now, ballots are being sent out to over 500 musicians, music "experts" and industry professionals. In January, they'll announce which five of those 12 artists (and groups) will be inducted at the 2010 ceremony, on March 15th in New York City.
In order to be eligible, an artist must have released their first recording at least 25 years ago. So, this year's newly-eligible artists dropped their first record back in 1984.
Other artists that just became eligible this year, but were passed over, include: The Jesus and Mary Chain, The Cult, Soul Asylum, Whitney Houston, The Flaming Lips, the Pet Shop Boys and A-Ha!!!
...but there are some HUGE acts that are eligible from previous years that are still being left out.
That list includes: Bon Jovi, Pantera, The Smiths, Motley Crue, Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, Ozzy Osbourne (solo), Journey, The Cars, The Cure, Boston, Electric Light Orchestra, Hall & Oates!!!, Blind Faith, and, of course, Alice Cooper.
Here's a FULL list of eligible artists, with the year they became eligible...
http://www.futurerockhall.com/eligibles.php
SPEAKING OF KATY PERRY...
She is working on her next album...and she wants it to be FUN.
She says, quote, "I'm kind of thinking I want to do my record like a mesh between 'Lovefool' by the Cardigans and ['The Sign'] by Ace of Base. I want to make songs that people want to hold hands and roller-skate to."
BRIT BRIT GREATEST HITS?
BRITNEY SPEARS will release a greatest hits compilation...called "The Singles Collection"...on November 24th. It'll feature 17 of her old hits, plus a new single called "3". That song hasn't been released yet. It should hit radio Tuesday, so make sure you lock it into Q92. I'm sure Nikolina will have it for you!
There will also be a limited edition box set version...if you're willing to shell out the green for that. It'll include all 29 of her singles, B-sides, remixes, and a DVD of all Britney's videos in chronological order.
VACATION SOON?
According to AOL, here are the ten most visited attractions in the U.S. So depending on your perspective, you might want to consider visiting them too...or avoiding them.
#10.) Navy Pier in Chicago
#9.) The Great Smoky Mountains National Park
#8.) Niagara Falls
#7.) Disneyland
#6.) Fisherman's Wharf and the Golden Gate National Recreation Area
#5.) Disney World
#4.) Faneuil Hall Marketplace in Boston
#3.) The National Mall in Washington, D.C.
#2.) The Las Vegas Strip
#1.) Times Square in New York City, which 37.6 MILLION people visit every year
BIG KIDS...
On Monday, a woman from northern Indonesia named Ani gave birth to a baby boy. But this wasn't just any baby boy. He was the LARGEST baby ever born in the country of Indonesia. So just how big was he?
At the time of his birth, which required a C-section delivery, the boy was more than TWO FEET long, and weighed 19.2 POUNDS.
ODD RESTAURANT NAMES...

OLD SCHOOL BEEF: IT'S OFF!
DMX and JA RULE have NEVER gotten along. It's not exactly clear WHY they had beef...although, since it involves DMX, I'm sure it's a fascinating story.
But that all came to an end on Wednesday night at the taping of this year's "VH1 Hip-Hop Honors". (It'll air on October 13th at 9:00 P.M.)
They posed for several pictures together...and afterwards, X's manager told AllHipHop.com, quote, "[DMX] has a new attitude, a new team. He looks good and [now] he is squashing beefs. [And] his performances are breathtaking."
So is his rap sheet. It's incredible...and I love linking to it. Sadly, "The Phoenix New Times" hasn't updated this thing in over a year now. You cannot slack off when you're covering DMX's legal shenanigans!!!
http://blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com/uponsun/2008/07/dmxs_rap_sheet_arrested_in_pho.php
Naturally, you can find the rest at Wikipedia. I love DMX.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DMX_%28rapper%29#Criminal_record
Other rappers took notice of this new peace treaty. LUDACRIS posted a message on Twitter...saying, quote, "Great to see DMX and Ja Rule squash their beef after all this time. 'VH1 Hip-Hop Honors'...a historic night indeed."

BRAD ARNOLD FROM 3 DOORS DOWN TIES THE NOOSE...
On Saturday, 3 DOORS DOWN singer Brad Arnold married a horseback rider named Jennifer Sanderford.
They were childhood friends back in the day...and were reunited on a blind date after Brad split from his first wife back in 2006. Brad says, quote, "From that day on we haven't spent two months apart in the past three years."
Awwwwww!!!
15 THINGS ABOUT SEX. READY? HERE WE GO.
#1.) When it comes to MAN-JUNK, width is more important than length. And studies have shown that women are actually more interested in the overall APPEARANCE of a guy's privates...than they are in the size.
#2.) Regardless of what they SAY, most women pleasure themselves.
#3.) According to a study from the University of Liverpool, if a man's ring finger is longer than his index finger, it's a sign that he was exposed to more testosterone in the womb. That means he's probably packing something serious in his pants.
#4.) A Dutch study found that when couples leave their SOCKS on during sex, they're 30% more likely to reach a climax.
#5.) Women like it dirty. And by "it", I mean you. At least that's according to a study from the University of California at Berkeley, which found that women are turned on by the scent of man-sweat.
#6.) Everyone lies about the size of their genitals, and how often they're having sex. EVERYONE.
#7.) When a woman takes matters into her own hands, so to speak, it typically takes her less than FOUR MINUTES to climax. That's compared to roughly 20 minutes when she's with a partner.
#8.) 45% of men say they wish their package was bigger. But 85% of women say they're happy with the size of their guy's manhood.
#9.) A new study from the Newcastle University in England found that women with rich husbands or boyfriends have more orgasms than women with poor or average partners.
#10.) About ONE in THREE women never or rarely climax through P-in-V relations.
#11.) After the age of 30, a man's testosterone level drops by about 1% per year. And with it goes his SEX DRIVE.
#12.) A study by Durham University in England found that 85% of men feel positively about having one-night stands. Only 54% of women do.
#13.) Contrary to popular belief, a study by the University of Chicago found that married couples have more sex than single people.
#14.) Women are more likely to have sex with a guy if he's a good kisser.
#15.) Guys don't care if you're a little overweight, or if you haven't shaved in a few days. They just want to rub genitals with you. DUH!
ARE YOU A "RETROSEXUAL"?
I just heard a new term that I want to tell you about. The word is "retrosexual" and it refers to someone who uses social networking sites like Facebook to reconnect with former boyfriends and girlfriends.
Have you done this? Let's be honest, you just wanna hook-up with them again. Yes. You do.
THE BIG STUFF...
You know Patrick Swayze died, and Kanye interupted Taylor, right? We don't have to discuss them? Good! Moving on...
THE BIG WINNING FROM Q92...
ALWAYS big things poppin' on Q92! And as I sit here listening to Taylor's "You Belong With Me" video on the VH1 Top 20 countdown, I think I should remind you about our Q92 YOU'RE INCLUDED CONTEST!
This week, win any prize and get included to win our grand prize on Friday morning...2 tickets to see TAYLOR SWIFT at her SOLD OUT Cleveland show in October, PLUS a backstage meet & greet pass!
It's part of our Q92 Face-To-Face Fall, getting you up close and personal with your favorite Q92 stars!
AND Congrats to KARRIE from NEW PHILLY...going to BOSTON to see PINK-NESS!!!!
SOME KANYE AFTERMATH...
Here's some things you may NOT have heard or caught in the Kanye fallout.
KELLY CLARKSON had this to say on her blog:
"Dear Kanye...what happened to you as a child?? Did you not get hugged enough??
"Something must have happened to make you this way, and I think we're all just curious as to what would make a grown man go on national television and make a talented artist, let alone teenager, feel like (crap).
"I was actually nominated in the same category that Taylor won and I was excited for her, so why can't you be?"
Kelly's blog is here: http://iamkelly.wordpress.com/
GREEN DAY singer BILLIE JOE ARMSTRONG: "She's young and I think she'll get over it...and I think that he needs to get over it. It was very uncomfortable sitting there behind him."
KELLIE PICKLER: "Tator Tot, you handled yourself with Grace. Kanye, go grow some (effing) balls (B-word)! Don't mess [with] my lil sis!" (!!!)
PINK: "Kanye West is the biggest piece of sh*t on earth. Quote me. My heart goes out to Taylor Swift. She is a sweet and talented girl and deserved her moment.
"She should know we all love her. Beyoncé is a classy lady. I feel for her, too. It's not her fault at all, and her and Taylor did their thing."
JOHN MAYER: "Big love to my girl [Taylor]. A class act."
DONALD TRUMP: "[It was] disgusting. He couldn't care less about Beyoncé. It was grandstanding to get attention." Trump also called for a BOYCOTT on everything related to Kanye...quote, "So this kind of thing doesn't happen again."
KATY PERRY: "(EFF) U KANYE. IT'S LIKE U STEPPED ON A KITTEN."
JOEL MADDEN: "WOW. Taylor Swift's first VMA and she didn't even get to ENJOY it. Kanye, you were just a bully on that one man."
MEN LIE TWICE AS MUCH AS WOMEN?!
I don't know if I buy that...guys? Ladies? Whatcha think?
A recent study in the UK found that the average man tells SIX lies a day, while the average woman tells only THREE lies a day. But that begs the question: What exactly are we lying about so much?
Well, according to the study, here are the ten most common lies told by MEN:
#10.) I'm stuck in traffic
#9.) It wasn't that expensive
#8.) I'm on my way
#7.) I didn't have that much to drink
#6.) Sorry, I missed your call
#5.) My battery died
#4.) I had no signal
#3.) No, your butt doesn't look big in that
#2.) This is my last drink
#1.) Nothing's wrong, I'm fine
And the ten most common lies told by WOMEN are:
#10.) Sorry, I missed your call
#9.) No, I didn't throw it away
#8.) I've got a headache
#7.) I didn't have that much to drink
#6.) I don't know where it is, I haven't touched it
#5.) I'm on my way
#4.) It was on sale
#3.) It wasn't that expensive
#2.) Oh, this isn't new, I've had it forever
#1.) Nothing's wrong, I'm fine
HOW BORED ARE YOU?....
...cause if you're quite bored, this might be semi-entertaining.

KATY KISSED A BUNCHA GUYS...
I guess if it dresses like a HO and dances like a HO...It's a HO. KATY PERRY was seen making out with Video Music Awards host RUSSELL BRAND at an after-party Sunday night.
48 hours earlier, on Friday night, she was at a club sucking face with He-Whore Extraordinaire JOHN MAYER.
48 hours from now, she'll be in my apartment, sucking face with Robbie Mack.
...or not.
PRESIDENT DOES LETTERMAN...
Catch Barack up late with Dave Letterman this Monday night. Barack will be the only guest on the show.
RIHANNA WANTS THE WORLD TO KNOW...
...she has a nipple ring!
AVRIL LAVIGNE UN-TIES THE NOOSE...
AVRIL LAVIGNE and her husband DERYCK WHIBLEY...of the rock band SUM 41...are getting a divorce. Avril posted a message on her website saying, quote, "I am grateful for our time together, and I am grateful and blessed for our remaining friendship.
"I admire Deryck and have a great amount of respect for him. He is the most amazing person I know and I love him with all my heart. Deryck and I are separating and moving forward on a positive note."
Avril drops a new CD in November.
Kanye was a jackass (tm, Barack Obama), Taylor didn't get 'her moment', but later did thanks to Beyonce.

#6.) Everyone lies about the size of their genitals, and how often they're having sex. EVERYONE.
#7.) When a woman takes matters into her own hands, so to speak, it typically takes her less than FOUR MINUTES to climax. That's compared to roughly 20 minutes when she's with a partner.
#8.) 45% of men say they wish their package was bigger. But 85% of women say they're happy with the size of their guy's manhood.
#9.) A new study from the Newcastle University in England found that women with rich husbands or boyfriends have more orgasms than women with poor or average partners.
#10.) About ONE in THREE women never or rarely climax through P-in-V relations.
#11.) After the age of 30, a man's testosterone level drops by about 1% per year. And with it goes his SEX DRIVE.
#12.) A study by Durham University in England found that 85% of men feel positively about having one-night stands. Only 54% of women do.
#13.) Contrary to popular belief, a study by the University of Chicago found that married couples have more sex than single people.
#14.) Women are more likely to have sex with a guy if he's a good kisser.
#15.) Guys don't care if you're a little overweight, or if you haven't shaved in a few days. They just want to rub genitals with you. DUH!
ARE YOU A "RETROSEXUAL"?
I just heard a new term that I want to tell you about. The word is "retrosexual" and it refers to someone who uses social networking sites like Facebook to reconnect with former boyfriends and girlfriends.
Have you done this? Let's be honest, you just wanna hook-up with them again. Yes. You do.
THE BIG STUFF...
You know Patrick Swayze died, and Kanye interupted Taylor, right? We don't have to discuss them? Good! Moving on...
THE BIG WINNING FROM Q92...
ALWAYS big things poppin' on Q92! And as I sit here listening to Taylor's "You Belong With Me" video on the VH1 Top 20 countdown, I think I should remind you about our Q92 YOU'RE INCLUDED CONTEST!
This week, win any prize and get included to win our grand prize on Friday morning...2 tickets to see TAYLOR SWIFT at her SOLD OUT Cleveland show in October, PLUS a backstage meet & greet pass!
It's part of our Q92 Face-To-Face Fall, getting you up close and personal with your favorite Q92 stars!
AND Congrats to KARRIE from NEW PHILLY...going to BOSTON to see PINK-NESS!!!!
SOME KANYE AFTERMATH...
Here's some things you may NOT have heard or caught in the Kanye fallout.
KELLY CLARKSON had this to say on her blog:
"Dear Kanye...what happened to you as a child?? Did you not get hugged enough??
"Something must have happened to make you this way, and I think we're all just curious as to what would make a grown man go on national television and make a talented artist, let alone teenager, feel like (crap).
"I was actually nominated in the same category that Taylor won and I was excited for her, so why can't you be?"
Kelly's blog is here: http://iamkelly.wordpress.com/
GREEN DAY singer BILLIE JOE ARMSTRONG: "She's young and I think she'll get over it...and I think that he needs to get over it. It was very uncomfortable sitting there behind him."
KELLIE PICKLER: "Tator Tot, you handled yourself with Grace. Kanye, go grow some (effing) balls (B-word)! Don't mess [with] my lil sis!" (!!!)
PINK: "Kanye West is the biggest piece of sh*t on earth. Quote me. My heart goes out to Taylor Swift. She is a sweet and talented girl and deserved her moment.
"She should know we all love her. Beyoncé is a classy lady. I feel for her, too. It's not her fault at all, and her and Taylor did their thing."
JOHN MAYER: "Big love to my girl [Taylor]. A class act."
DONALD TRUMP: "[It was] disgusting. He couldn't care less about Beyoncé. It was grandstanding to get attention." Trump also called for a BOYCOTT on everything related to Kanye...quote, "So this kind of thing doesn't happen again."
KATY PERRY: "(EFF) U KANYE. IT'S LIKE U STEPPED ON A KITTEN."
JOEL MADDEN: "WOW. Taylor Swift's first VMA and she didn't even get to ENJOY it. Kanye, you were just a bully on that one man."
MEN LIE TWICE AS MUCH AS WOMEN?!
I don't know if I buy that...guys? Ladies? Whatcha think?
A recent study in the UK found that the average man tells SIX lies a day, while the average woman tells only THREE lies a day. But that begs the question: What exactly are we lying about so much?
Well, according to the study, here are the ten most common lies told by MEN:
#10.) I'm stuck in traffic
#9.) It wasn't that expensive
#8.) I'm on my way
#7.) I didn't have that much to drink
#6.) Sorry, I missed your call
#5.) My battery died
#4.) I had no signal
#3.) No, your butt doesn't look big in that
#2.) This is my last drink
#1.) Nothing's wrong, I'm fine
And the ten most common lies told by WOMEN are:
#10.) Sorry, I missed your call
#9.) No, I didn't throw it away
#8.) I've got a headache
#7.) I didn't have that much to drink
#6.) I don't know where it is, I haven't touched it
#5.) I'm on my way
#4.) It was on sale
#3.) It wasn't that expensive
#2.) Oh, this isn't new, I've had it forever
#1.) Nothing's wrong, I'm fine
HOW BORED ARE YOU?....
...cause if you're quite bored, this might be semi-entertaining.

KATY KISSED A BUNCHA GUYS...
I guess if it dresses like a HO and dances like a HO...It's a HO. KATY PERRY was seen making out with Video Music Awards host RUSSELL BRAND at an after-party Sunday night.
48 hours earlier, on Friday night, she was at a club sucking face with He-Whore Extraordinaire JOHN MAYER.
48 hours from now, she'll be in my apartment, sucking face with Robbie Mack.
...or not.
PRESIDENT DOES LETTERMAN...
Catch Barack up late with Dave Letterman this Monday night. Barack will be the only guest on the show.
RIHANNA WANTS THE WORLD TO KNOW...
...she has a nipple ring!
AVRIL LAVIGNE UN-TIES THE NOOSE...
AVRIL LAVIGNE and her husband DERYCK WHIBLEY...of the rock band SUM 41...are getting a divorce. Avril posted a message on her website saying, quote, "I am grateful for our time together, and I am grateful and blessed for our remaining friendship.
"I admire Deryck and have a great amount of respect for him. He is the most amazing person I know and I love him with all my heart. Deryck and I are separating and moving forward on a positive note."
Avril drops a new CD in November.

RIHANNA BACK IN THE DATING GAME
While CHRIS BROWN makes the interview rounds in a desperate attempt to repair his public image, RIHANNA continues to look for his replacement.
A guy named Travis London may be the lucky winner. He used to date MARY KATE OLSEN. Travis and Rihanna have been out on a bunch of dates over the past week in L.A. That's all for now. We'll let you know if and when they decide to exchange DNA.
SNL ANNOUNCER RETIRES...
And he'd been with the show since it started in 1974. That's not the most shocking part. He was 91!!! Never thought that guy was THAT old!
I hope to still be playing on the radio when I'm 91 and bald :-p
DON PARDO is his name.
WHEN DOES GREY'S COME BACK? HOW 'BOUT CSI?

Get a list of the all of the season premieres there!
MC DOES O!
MARIAH CAREY will perform on "Oprah" NEXT Friday. It'll be a special episode, which will air live from New York.
TAYLOR SWIFT IS A REAL PARTY ANIMAL...
We know that TAYLOR SWIFT has no interest in exploring the decadent side of rock 'n roll. So what does she do after the show while the other acts are out tearing it up? She watches the History Channel.
At least that's what she did after her concert on Saturday in Charlotte, North Carolina. She wrote about it on her MySpace page, quote, "Tonight I feel a little left out because two thirds of the artists on this tour are from North Carolina.
"KELLIE PICKLER (and) GLORIANA are both from North Carolina. Me: Not from North Carolina. They're out having fun and celebrating and I'm on the bus, having just watched a very compelling and educational History Channel special on The Dark Ages.
"I think I'm about to download a new one that's about the Plague. So, as you can imagine, it's wayyy more of a party in here than anything Kellie and Gloriana are doing. Wayyyy more. I mean seriously.
"The Plague was history's most devastating biological disaster ever, and I'm about to watch it play out RIGHT before my eyes. Well...the re-enactments, at least. And I'm stoked about it. This is going to be a fun-filled night."
I know that's written tongue-in-cheek, but it doesn't diminish that she actually watched that show instead of something mindless like "Jon & Kate Plus Eight".
To me, it's another reason why Taylor is so successful. She's curious and intelligent and that always pays off if you're in the business of being creative.
Taylor pics? YES!!!

WOMEN: BOOBIES FIRST
Ladies...I'm sure you've suspected all along that when guys meet you, the first thing they notice is your BOOBS. Well, you're right.
At least according to a new study from the University of Wellington in New Zealand, which found that:
ONE in FIVE men look at a woman's FACE first.
ONE in THREE look at a woman's WAIST and HIPS first.
And roughly HALF of all men look at a woman's BREASTS first.
According to the researchers, quote, "80% of [men's] 'first fixations' are on the breasts and midriff. Men spend consistently more time looking at the breasts and also make significantly more fixations upon them than other regions."
So why are guys so much more interested in breasts than any other body part?
Well, according to the researchers, the answer is simple: It's because, regardless of whether they're big or small, men just LOVE looking at boobs!
So, ladies, the bad news is that men are going to continue ogling your breasts, and there's nothing you can do about it. But the good news is that guys don't really care if you've got big cans or tiny cans: Either way, they love looking at them!
CHRISTINIA MILIAN...REMEMBER HER?...MARRIED
Singer CHRISTINA MILIAN eloped to Las Vegas with a music producer who goes by the name of THE DREAM.
They made The Big Mistake just after midnight on Friday morning at the Little White Wedding Chapel. That's the same place where BRITNEY SPEARS entered into her three-day marriage with first husband Jason Alexander five years ago.
I HEAR its because MILIAN is knocked up!!! Looks like she dipped it low...and he couldn't resist.
Huh, huh? HI-YO!!!!!
VH1 DIVAS...ADDS MORE OF THEM
Jennifer Hudson, Sheryl Crow, Cyndi Lauper, Melissa Etheridge and Martina McBride have been added to the list of performers for this year's "VH1 Divas".
They join a lineup that already includes Miley Cyrus, Kelly Clarkson, Jordin Sparks, and British singers Adele and Leona Lewis. This year's show...the first "Divas" concert in five years...will air live on September 17th. PAULA ABDUL will host.
ROB THINKS:
Miley is NOT AT ALL A DIVA!!! She should get her own damn show: VH1 BRATS LIVE
SIDENOTE:
The Paula commercial on VH1 where they make fun of Ryan Seamonkey is AWESOME!!!!
GAGA PUT DOWN THE BAG...
LADY GAGA would like you to know that she is NOT your typical pop star...and this is not because there's some silly speculation that she's a hermaphrodite. Although, that alone puts her in a class by herself.
Instead, she's now "revealing" that she went through a dark period about five years ago...when she was 19...that involved some serious cocaine use.
She says, quote, "My cocaine soundtrack was The Cure. I loved all their music, but I listened to this one song on repeat while I did bags and bags of cocaine.
"I didn't think there was anything wrong with me until my friends came over and said, 'Are you doing this alone?' [And I said] 'Um, yes. Me and my mirror.'
"But I was able to stop...because I was panicking more on the drugs than I was sober. So I'm fine now."
Gaga credits her dad, Joseph, for helping her kick the habit. She says, quote, "My father looked at me one day and said, 'You're (effin') up, kid.' (???) And I looked at him and thought, 'How does he know that I'm high right now?'"
She adds, quote, "And he never said a word about the drugs, not one word. But he said, 'I just wanna tell you that anyone you meet while you're like this, and any friend that you make in the future while you are with this thing, you will lose.'
"And we never talked about it again."
MR. GWEN STEFANI DOES SOME TV...
BUSH singer/GWEN STEFANI'S lover GAVIN ROSSDALE will guest star on the CBS show, "Criminal Minds", later this fall.
He'll play a rock star...who may also be a SERIAL KILLER. We don't have a specific airdate yet, but it's expected to be on sometime in November.
Gavin has been in a few movies, including "Constantine" and "How to Rob a Bank"...but this is his first TV gig.
JAY-Z CONCERT NEWS...
JAY-Z took OPRAH to the projects where he grew up, during an interview for her magazine. Some portions of that air on September 24.
You should also know that JAY is COMING TO CLEVELAND for a concert. Q92 has tickets MONDAY morning with DeLuca!
GET CHA F.W.B. ON!
If you've ever been in a friends-with-benefits relationship, then I don't have to tell you how awesome...and sometimes complicated...the arrangement can be. But, for those of you who've never had the pleasure, here are some friends-with-benefits stats for you to mull over.
According to a new survey from Wayne State University and Michigan State University, THREE in FIVE Americans have been in a friends-with-benefits relationship.
Of those people, nearly TWO in THREE...or 62%...think it's possible for a man and a woman to stay "just friends" while occasionally violating one another's nethers, while 38% think it's absolutely impossible.
So how exactly does a typical friends-with-benefits relationship look?
Well, the average friends-with-benefits "couple" knew one another for 14 months before hooking up, and 36% stayed friends even after their sexual relationship ended.
Meanwhile, about ONE in TEN became a "real" romantic couple.
And after about six months, roughly ONE in FOUR couples stopped having sex...and stopped being friends.
So that begs the question: What are some of the "pros" and "cons" of a friends-with-benefits relationship?
PROS: Roughly THREE in FOUR people say that they enjoy having sex without commitment, while 69% appreciate having someone around who they can violate regularly.
And more than ONE in FOUR people say they prefer a friends-with-benefits relationship to a one-night stand.
CONS: But 35% of people say they hate putting their friendship at risk, while more than FOUR in FIVE worry that they or the other person will develop romantic feelings.
And, strangely, about 12% say they feel BAD about having sex with a friend. (???)
Overall, at the time of the survey, about ONE in THREE lucky people were currently involved in a friends-with-benefits situation.

WEEKEND UPDATE: SEPTEMBER 5 & 6 (& 7 TOO!)
Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood morning! Happy Labor Day weekend! Enjoy your Monday off, if ya got it...I'll be here playin' the hits for ya! Here's some shtuff...
MICHAEL BOLTON HAS COLLABORATED WITH...LADY GAGA!?!?!?
A new MICHAEL BOLTON track, called "Murder My Heart", has hit the Internet, and get this: It's the product of a collaboration with LADY GAGA!!!
Bolton explains, quote, "I was taking a break from production when my manager and the label tag-teamed me on the phone about writing with a young artist named Lady Gaga who I had never heard of... but they were raving about.
"They said that she was a huge fan of mine and wanted to write with me.
"When I met her in the studio later that night, I realized she was not only about to have a big hit record but Gaga was a superstar about to launch...her energy was so high and her focus excited me.
"She reminded me of a young Madonna...with more exuberance and emphasis on the art rather than the marketing."
The song...which was written by Lady Gaga...was recorded earlier this year. For now, there's no word on how or when it'll be officially released. But search for it online, you'll find it. Now, here's the thing...its HONESTLY...pretty decent. I heard about the first minute and thought 'well, Michael Bolton doesn't sound like doctor's office music anymore!'
JAY-Z STILL WANTS TO TAKE ON HOLLYWEIRD:
When JAY-Z "retired" from rap six years ago...he said that, among other things, he wanted to jumpstart a career in Hollywood.
Well, his retirement only lasted three years, and the acting thing never happened. But he hasn't given up on the dream...he's just waiting for the right moment.
Jay-Z says, quote, "I'm taking my time. It may seem like it's taking forever, but when I do, it's gonna be something added to the genre.
"I just don't wanna do a couple movies and be gone. I want it to be something that's really important, so I'm taking my time with it. Hopefully when I arrive [in Hollywood], I can leave a footprint."
...or would that be a BLUEPRINT?!?!
............don't hate.
NEARLY 2 IN 5 FACEBOOK USERS ANNOUNCE THEIR VACATION PLANS ONLINE:
This survey took place in the UK, but we have no doubt the results would be pretty similar here in the States.
According to a recent survey, 13% of Facebook users accept friend requests from total strangers.
You're not strangers, I heart you. Bunches. www.facebook.com/robmackenzie
Now, that might not seem like a big deal. But, considering that nearly TWO in FIVE Facebook users...or 38%...post status updates announcing their vacation plans, it IS.
According to one of the researchers, quote, "Coupled with the finding that an alarmingly high proportion of users are prepared to be 'friends' online with people they don't really know, this presents a serious risk to the security of people's home and contents.
"This reaction could result in a complete stranger potentially being able to learn about a person's interests, location and movements in and out of their home."
In other words, if you announce your vacation plans on Facebook, you're not just letting your friends know your house is going to be empty, you're also letting potential BURGLARS know it'll be empty.
It's called security settings...use those!
BY THE WAY, TWEETERS....???
Q92 has a TWITTER! We tweet and all that! http://twitter.com/Q92
We have just over 400 followers, which I gotta say, its really impressive to me. I've promoted this on the air maybe 2x MAX, and I don't think anyone else has. Yet people searched US out on Twitter. It shows how well we're doing in the market these days!
PEE ON MY FLOOR? I MAKE FUN OF YOUR SMALL ONE!
Three weeks ago, 26-year-old Alex Hess of Toronto, Canada, came home to find that an anonymous man had PEED all over the open-air entryway to his apartment building.
So Alex got his hands on the apartment building's security camera, which clearly shows the guy doing his business on the floor, and posted it on a website he created called SmallPenisAlert.com in order to publicly humiliate the guy.
Then Alex printed up hundreds of posters showing a close-up of the guy's face, under the heading "SMALL PENIS ALERT", and plastered them all over his neighborhood. So why did Alex go to so much trouble just to get back at one anonymous guy?
Alex says, quote, "There aren't a lot of legal options, so I figure if there is something I can do to embarrass him or make me feel better, this is one of those things...The message is, if you pee on my building, I'm going to make fun of your manhood."
A SHOT AT HUMOR...
For a while, it seemed like KID 'N PLAY were EVERYWHERE. But that was over 15 years ago. These days, we're not sure what PLAY is up to...but KID just surfaced in a low-budget commercial, hawking SUITS.
He IS trying to be funny . . . but it DOES appear to be a real ad. Which is funny, because his sales pitch includes the line, quote, "You tryin' to take your lady out? Take your mother out? One of your homeboys got shot? (!!!)
"You got things to do and you can't wear shorts and flip-flops."

"CHILI" THOMAS OF TLC FAME...WITH A VH1 SHOW!
A while back, we heard that Rozonda "Chilli" Thomas...one of the two surviving members of TLC...was getting her own reality dating show on VH1. And now, the show is taking applications for guys who'd like to slice off a piece of that.
The only requirements are that you have to be a single male between the ages of 25 and 40. (And they didn't say this, but it's probably more understood than ever that you shouldn't be a homicidal maniac.)
If you're interested in applying for the show, send an email to TheChilliProject@gmail.com.
And remember... she don't want NO SCRUBS!!!
HI-YO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
.....shut it, that was funny.
You laughed.
Hater.
MEGAN *WILL* GET HERSELF A NEW SHOW...
Poor MEGAN HAUSERMAN. Her VH1 show, "Megan Wants a Millionaire", got canceled because one of the contestants killed his wife, mangled her corpse and stuffed it in a suitcase before committing suicide.
So VH1 is making it up to her by giving her a NEW reality show. There's no word what kind of show it'll be...but a so-called "source" says VH1 offered it to her to keep her quiet about the chaos surrounding her last show.
AVRIL LAVIGNE AND KATY PERRY DO IDOL
AVRIL LAVIGNE will take PAULA ABDUL'S seat for the "American Idol" auditions in Los Angeles this week. The L.A. auditions will be split into two days...with Avril doing one, and KATY PERRY doing the other.
VH1 HIP-HOP HONORS...
The annual VH1 "Hip-Hop Honors" will air on October 13th, and this year, they're paying tribute to Def Jam Records. TRACY MORGAN will host the show for the third straight year...and they already have a HUGE lineup.
The list includes: Eminem, Rick Ross, Mary J. Blige, Young Jeezy, Ludacris, Fabolous, DMX, Method Man, Redman, The Roots, Kid Rock, Trey Songz, Ja Rule, Onyx, Warren G and Public Enemy. (!!!)
The special will feature old Def Jam footage and never-before-seen interviews.
LADY GAGA WON'T ADDRESS HER PENIS....
LADY GAGA was on some Australian radio show yesterday, when one of the hosts asked her POINT BLANK if she's a hermaphrodite. And she REFUSED to give a straight yes-or-no answer.
She said, quote, "You know what, honestly it's just too low-brow for me to even discuss."
Then the hosts asked her if she had ever posted a message online ADMITTING that she was packing man-meat. (There WAS such a quote attributed to her, but we never knew if she was really the author.)
To that, she said, quote, "I've made fun of it before, but you know, to even talk about it is just ridiculous. I'm an accomplished musician, and I'd much rather talk about my fans and my music than a silly rumor."
THE "JON & KATE" PORNO SPOOF IS HERE!!!
The "Jon & Kate Plus 8" porno spoof is finally here!!! It's called "Jon & Kate (Eff) 8" (LOL!!!!), and it's due out from a fine company called Devil's Film on September 14th.
And here's the cool part: The movie is actually more romantic than the actual "Jon & Kate" show on TLC. Because after each of them goes out and nails everything in sight, they realize they were actually meant for each other all along!!!!!!! awwwww
(((((PIC))))))
It's due out soon.
MICHAEL BOLTON HAS COLLABORATED WITH...LADY GAGA!?!?!?
A new MICHAEL BOLTON track, called "Murder My Heart", has hit the Internet, and get this: It's the product of a collaboration with LADY GAGA!!!
Bolton explains, quote, "I was taking a break from production when my manager and the label tag-teamed me on the phone about writing with a young artist named Lady Gaga who I had never heard of... but they were raving about.
"They said that she was a huge fan of mine and wanted to write with me.
"When I met her in the studio later that night, I realized she was not only about to have a big hit record but Gaga was a superstar about to launch...her energy was so high and her focus excited me.
"She reminded me of a young Madonna...with more exuberance and emphasis on the art rather than the marketing."
The song...which was written by Lady Gaga...was recorded earlier this year. For now, there's no word on how or when it'll be officially released. But search for it online, you'll find it. Now, here's the thing...its HONESTLY...pretty decent. I heard about the first minute and thought 'well, Michael Bolton doesn't sound like doctor's office music anymore!'
JAY-Z STILL WANTS TO TAKE ON HOLLYWEIRD:
When JAY-Z "retired" from rap six years ago...he said that, among other things, he wanted to jumpstart a career in Hollywood.
Well, his retirement only lasted three years, and the acting thing never happened. But he hasn't given up on the dream...he's just waiting for the right moment.
Jay-Z says, quote, "I'm taking my time. It may seem like it's taking forever, but when I do, it's gonna be something added to the genre.
"I just don't wanna do a couple movies and be gone. I want it to be something that's really important, so I'm taking my time with it. Hopefully when I arrive [in Hollywood], I can leave a footprint."
...or would that be a BLUEPRINT?!?!
............don't hate.
NEARLY 2 IN 5 FACEBOOK USERS ANNOUNCE THEIR VACATION PLANS ONLINE:
This survey took place in the UK, but we have no doubt the results would be pretty similar here in the States.
According to a recent survey, 13% of Facebook users accept friend requests from total strangers.
You're not strangers, I heart you. Bunches. www.facebook.com/robmackenzie
Now, that might not seem like a big deal. But, considering that nearly TWO in FIVE Facebook users...or 38%...post status updates announcing their vacation plans, it IS.
According to one of the researchers, quote, "Coupled with the finding that an alarmingly high proportion of users are prepared to be 'friends' online with people they don't really know, this presents a serious risk to the security of people's home and contents.
"This reaction could result in a complete stranger potentially being able to learn about a person's interests, location and movements in and out of their home."
In other words, if you announce your vacation plans on Facebook, you're not just letting your friends know your house is going to be empty, you're also letting potential BURGLARS know it'll be empty.
It's called security settings...use those!
