Whitney Houston dead at 48. She was my first African-American crush...unless you count Tootie on Facts of Life. The funeral is today and is viewable online.
Do you remember when they discovered Osama Bin Laden loved Whitney Houston? How owned several photos of Whitney, all of her albums and reportedly HATED Bobby Brown...so that's Osama's one redeeming quality.
Boulevard Brewery is offering refunds for a few cases of their wildly popular Chocolate Ale because of an undesirable taste.
TOP 5 SIGNS YOU GOT A BAD BOTTLE OF CHOCOLATE ALE:
#5. When you realize you're too drunk to drive you call for a Cadbury.
#4. In the heat of passion you scream, "Oh Henry!"
#3. You ask girls at the bar if they would like to see your "Willy Wonka."
#2. Constantly drunk dialing someone in Hershey, Pennsylvania.
#1. Nobody knows the truffles you've seen.
Five U.S. Senators have called on the NFL to stop blacking out broadcasts of games that lack a sellout crowd.
**They must have read my letter pleading for economic help for struggling NFL players.
Now you can join the mile-high-club without risk of getting caught, fined, or thrown on a no-fly list. A company out of Cincinnati called Flamingo Air is the only company in the U.S. that offers private flights specifically for "relations" in the air. For $425 you get an hour-long flight to "get-it-on."
**For 50 cents, my wife and I saved money and took advantage of the mechanical airplane in front of K-Mart.
A Philadelphia bakery is selling a $55,000 cupcake.
**Apparently, the cupcake recipe includes gas.
President Obama unveiled his $3.8 trillion budget for 2013.

A local man has a comet named in his honor.
**You could tell the astronomer was from Kansas City when he named it Hale-Arena.
I feel like I lost the demo on that joke...
I started a private twitter account for when I need to tell myself something useless. Check out:
There's a new "Forbes" list of America's top 20 most miserable cities, based on crime, unemployment, taxes, and how the local sports teams did. Miami beat out Detroit, followed by Flint, Michigan followed by West Palm Beach, and Sacramento. Kansas City was not listed because THIS PLACE IS HEAVEN!
I'm going to Miami this weekend just to make sure this report is accurate. How does Kelly Clarkson in Las Vegas sound? Listen to win this week starting at 7:10.
I'm typing this at the airport. A giant thank you to Fox 4 for inviting me on their morning news to talk about romantic restaurants in Kansas City. We featured Le Fou Frog, Pierpont's, Oak Bar Lounge in the Intercontinental Hotel and The Manifesto, formerly 1924 Main. I haven't been to the Manifesto since it changed but it just won Nightclub of the Year by Nightclub and Bar magazine.
It sounds to me like Gisele Bundchen is a better ball handler than the Patriots wide receivers. I'm sure Tom Brady is cool with that.
Google will pay $10 for each utility pole it attaches cables to in Wyandotte county. I haven't seen this money shelled out for pole since I was a Chippendale. Where will Wyandotte store all of this money? In a POLE VAULT!
Missouri voters voted in a non-binding primary today. It's like a regular primary but your commitment doesn't really matter. Or as Newt Gingrich calls it....marriage.
Two alcohol-free restaurants have opened in the Westport area. That's like opening a Dollar General Store in Mission Hills....but whatever.
KC took part in the great American shakeout onTuesday. 2 million people participated nationwide.
**So if you saw people lying in the middle of the parking lot kicking and screaming, they were doing the drill...or else, they have my stock broker.
Kansas City Royals hall-of-famer George Brett has been charged in a class-action lawsuit for false advertising.
**Tell me about it! My hemorrhoids haven't gotten any better since the 1980s!
A new study found that dieters who ate dessert with breakfast every morning lost an average of forty-two pounds more in 32 weeks than dieters who didn't. One, if you eat dessert in the morning it spikes your metabolism and gives you all day to burn it off. And two, it fights your dessert cravings.
**It's a perfect storm! I think I have a new name for my morning show - Kelly and CAKE in the morning.
Zac Efron doesn't just get mobbed by young girls. Their MOMS come after him, too. And they're even worse. He says, quote, "It's the moms who are overaggressive. He says, "A lot of times their daughters are very sweet and cordial, and the moms tend to grab you and scream and want to kiss you. You gotta watch out for the moms."
**I have the same problem when I DJ children's birthday parties.
Ladies, you've now got a one in 33 chance your husband will take YOUR LAST NAME. According to a company that handles the name changing process for newlyweds, last year, 3% of men took their wife's last name. Another 2% of men either created a hybrid last name using both last names, or did the hyphenated thing.
**If I had taken Hillary's last name, I could have been Kelly Rodham Clinton BULL. My wife's maiden name was Bull...which is only half what people say I'm full of.
If you listen to the tabloids, EVERYBODY wants to date TIM TEBOW. JENNY MCCARTHY is the latest. "In Touch Weekly" claims that ROSIE O'DONNELL set them up at the Super Bowl. Supposedly, Jenny told Rosie she had a crush on Tebow, so Rosie took Jenny right up to him and said, quote, "Hi, I'm Rosie O'Donnell and this is Jenny McCarthy and she's single. "I think you two would be perfect together. Now exchange telephone numbers." A source says they DID exchange numbers, but there's no word if they've hooked up.
I can remember a time when I was Tebowing that Jenny McCarthy would hook up with me -- but my Tebowing went unanswered..
VANESSA HUDGENS plays a pregnant, homeless teenager in the upcoming movie "Gimme Shelter". And in order to prepare for the role, she actually lived in a homeless shelter. She says, quote, "I actually went and stayed in the shelter for two weeks before I started filming. You find so much more about yourself."
**That's not uncommon...before I made my appearance on Party of Five, I partied for TWO WEEKS before I started filming.
A federal appeals court has ruled that California's Proposition 8, the ballot initiative that banned gay marriage is unconstitutional. The issue will probably head to the Supreme Court.
**So, "Smash" premiered this week, prop 8 is unconstitutional, Madonna just did Anderson Cooper's show....and I ate at Hamburger Mary's the other day!
Have a great weekend and remember to listen to 99-7 The Point for updates on your exclusive Madonna tickets to Sprint Center for October 30!
We hung out with Karli Ritter and our buds at Fox 4 to talk about some of the cool, romantic places in Kansas City where you can enjoy some romance this weekend -- or next Tuesday evening! Take a look...
Special thanks for Karli Ritter, Camissa Hall, Kathy Hanis, and the crew at Fox 4 for having us!
Kansas City will be represented in Hollywood on American Idol. Harrisonville's Joe Dahman was one of 46 people who made the cut in the St Louis auditions. Joe was nice enough to call us Friday and we want to wish him much success. I will host his homecoming in Harrisonville if he makes the final 3!
I took the tour of the new Hollywood Casino by the racetrack last week and it really does have more of a Vegas feel than the other casinos in town.
For example, it doesn't close at 9 P.M.
My wife just informed me she has Tom Brady on her fantasy team. Then she said she had no idea he plays football.
TOP 5 PREDICTIONS FOR THE SUPER BOWL:
#5. Millions of Americans will watch with the volume muted, not realizing Joe Buck isn't calling the game.
#4. Inspired by Tom Brady's old coach, I might ask Giselle Bunschen if she wants me to donate my organ.
#3. A dozen people will get an unexpected look at Katie Couric's colon when they accidentally google Super Bowel.
#2. The only person at the game representing KC will be Kelly Clarkson.
#1. I will have to fork out $30 for the Domino's guy to give me a ride home.
Kansas City has moved from the northern Missouri region to the Southern Missouri region on the USDA planting zone map. Several plants that completely died over winter just a few years ago are hardly fazed by our average minimum winter temperature...it also means things that we used to plant outdoors in March can now be planted in FEBRUARY.
**Does this mean I should take down my Christmas lights in June instead of July?
American incomes rose 0.5 percent in December and that's the biggest jump in nine months but still not enough to keep up with the rate of Starbucks Coffee.
Starbucks will open its first store in India later this year. Great. That means, the guy giving me tech support that I can't understand, will be hopped up on caffeine.
People in Brookside are familiar with Aixois French Bistro. The delicious restaurant will be opening a new location in the Commerce tower downtown. Aixois will now be able to offer quick financing for your dinner.
The Chiefs hired Tom McMahon to direct special teams this year. Last year McMahon was with the Rams. The Chiefs are going all-out to create a dynasty, and nothing says dynasty quite like the Rams 2011 season.
A new health care law has people debating the constitutionality of birth control mandates. The Obama plan would not exempt religious employers from providing birth control. Planned. Parenthood is for the law, the Catholic church is suing to stop it...and if men gave birth, birth control pills would be available in your lunchroom vending machine.
Justin Bieber will host "Saturday Night Live" this season. Bieber says he's nervous because he's never done comedy before. That's fine because SNL hasn't done comedy since 1993.
A huge new survey found that 75% of Americans now take their phones with them while they use the restroom and 24% of people say they refuse to go to the bathroom without their phone. The survey also found 10% of people have made an online purchase on the toilet.
**As one caller said, "I don't pee in your telephone booth, please don't talk on your cell in the restroom."
I'm thinking of a new bumper sticker... HANG UP AND PEE!
A women's website called XO Jane has started a new online fad where women post a photo of themselves as soon as they wake up. No makeup, messy hair, and no editing. XO Jane says it's a celebration of the natural way people look.
**XO also used to be the name of a club where we would go to find e natural way they looked when you woke up with them the next morning.
Check me out on Twitter. Sometimes I tweet this stuff.
Thanks once again for making this Kansas City's #1 comedy newsletter.
My hope is to make it worth every penny you pay for it.
Kansas City has been rated the 14th "gayest" city in the United States!?
CENTRAL CONNECTICUT STATE UNIVERSITY does the annual list. I'm not completely sure how they formulate the rankings but I'm guessing it has something to do with the number of people still watching GLEE per-capita. Here is a link to the entire list.
http://www.ccsu.edu/page.cfm?p=11096
A new study by KCPD finds red-light cameras do not decrease the number of injury accidents at intersections. In fact, rear-end wrecks, injury wrecks and overall wrecks increased dramatically.
**Police became suspicious when they realized the cameras were made by Maaco.
Construction in the KC area was off 43 percent in 2011.
**In fact, there wouldn't have been any construction work at all if it weren't for the West-Edge project on the plaza.
During his State of the Union address, President Obama surprised everyone when he announced legislation that would ban the driveway tax in Mission.
Lee's Summit police are using "dummy" police officers at trouble spots in an attempt to get motorists to slow down.
**Mission police would never do that because there's no way a mannequin can raise revenue...or be unreasonably rude and pompous.
A woman who was born with no arms just got a job . . . as the massage therapist for the British Paralympics team. Her birth defect might have been caused by her mother taking Thalidomide, but it hasn't stopped her from being the only massage therapist in Britain trained to use her feet to give rubdowns....what did you think I was going to say.
**So armed or unarmed ladies...years of walking all over guys could lead to your next career!
If you go to a 24-hour Walmart in the middle of the night, don't expect an old person to greet you anymore. Walmart is getting rid of greeters for the 10:00 P.M. to 7:00 A.M. shift as part of a plan to cut costs and raise their profits. This ends a 32-year tradition of having a greeter at the front of every store at all times.
**I always feel sorry for Walmart greeters. They're like the poster children for "I didn't save enough money for retirement."
**Then again, I should have more respect. These people have 30-40 years on me and I can't stay awake past 8:30.
For the 26th straight year, NFL football has been voted the most popular sport in the U.S. and its lead keeps getting bigger. When the Royals won the World Series in 1985, 24% of people said the NFL was their favorite sport, and 23% went with baseball. In the 2011 poll, 36% went with pro football and 13% picked baseball. That leaves baseball and college football tied for second place.
**Ya gotta give kudos to the guy who has made the popularity of baseball conversely proportional to the price of BEER.
Kansas City has moved from the northern Missouri region to the Southern Missouri region on the USDA planting zone map. Several plants that completely died over winter just a few years ago are hardly fazed by our average minimum winter temperature.
**Now, get back scraping the ice off your windshield.
Make sure to listen at 7:10 Monday morning for a shot at a Royal Caribbean cruise from the Kansas Lottery and 99-7 The Point...and thanks for making the switch!
Thank you to the thousands of you who read this blog worldwide! If there's one thing you all seem to want more of, it's hit singles that I've recorded in my basement. Friday, we challenged 99-7 The Point listeners to write their own lyrics to Jay-Z's new baby single if he had written it 15 years into parenthood. They called their "raps" in and I made a new hit single; Glory B.I.C. - The Point Listener Remix.
Click the link below. I'm warning you....it's terrible!
The proposed oil pipeline from Canada through Kansas has been rejected.
**Mainly, because it wasn't something Kansas could steal from downtown Kansas City, Missouri.
Do you think you know the name of the largest brewing company based in the United States? Budweiser is owned by a Belgium company. MillerCoors is owned by a British one. Pabst outsources their brewing. That means the largest American brewing company is now Yuengling?! It's regional brewer out of Pennsylvania. In 2011, it had a slightly larger market share than the second biggest brewery, the Boston Beer Company, which makes Sam Adams.
Meanwhile, Boulevard's wildly popular Chocolate Ale is back. This year's recipe will contain slightly more cocoa. Last year it was going for $100 a bottle around February 14.
**For $100 I could buy a real date for Valentine's Day.
A Shawnee Mission West student got a perfect score on her A.C.T. To give you an idea of how difficult this is to do, more than a million students take this every year and less than 1 tenth of 1 percent get a perfect score. Erin Lanigan did it this year. She also plays violin and is on the school's literary club.
**Congratulations Erin! If you're nice, I can probably get you an internship here at Entercom broadcasting.
The 11th season premiere of "American Idol" attracted 21.6 million viewers, which was down 18% from the 26.25 million that tuned in for last season's premiere. That's the biggest premiere ratings drop from season to season in the show's history. The theory is, people are growing tired of the audition episodes and just want the competition.
**Personally, I wish they would fast forward to the part where all the women eventually vote for the young male winner.
Paris Hilton's Next Album Will Feature a Track with LMFAO:
**I'm sexy and I know it has already been taken, so I can't imagine which song would interest her.
A gardening expert in the U.K. found that after adding a tiny bit of crushed up Viagra to his soil, his flower stems were firmer, stiffer, and stayed upright longer. He says it's because the nitric oxide in Viagra also makes plants die slower.
**It works even better if a healthy bush is nearby.
COMPLETELY UNFOCUSED CATEGORY
Officials at Union Station are already making plans for 2112 to host the 100 year anniversary exhibit of the Costa Concordia.

**Researchers in Saudi Arabia are hoping to name a new species of camel after Jay-Z.
There's a new list of 10 cars you should trade in now if you want to get the maximum value, including the Jeep Wrangler, Toyota Tacoma and the Mini Cooper. 89,000 Mini Coopers are being recalled due to risk of fire.
**I saw a guy driving a Mini Cooper who was absolutely FLAMING!
**Why don't they just call it the Mini Anderson Cooper?
It's obviously time for me to stop this. Have a great week and give me a shout Monday! 913 576 7997. I haven't heard your voice in forever!
Best wishes to Mackenzie, who is going to nursing school full-time as of this week. We have done radio together since the Clinton administration and she will be missed. Someone has some big bra straps to fill! Stay tuned to 99-7 The Point and find out who the exciting new co-host will be....
The Chiefs officially named Romeo Crennel head coach of the team. Crennel will be wearing many hats as he will run the team, assist in drafting players, bolster the offense and occasionally sub for BELLY BOY.
Marijuana use among kids has hit a 30 year high...so to speak.
According to a new survey, by January tenth, 75% of people admit they've broken their New Year's resolution. And the average person says this is at least the fourth time they've made that resolution and failed.
**Failure doesn't feel as bad when everyone around you is failing.
The ROYALS make a great living at it.
The Sheraton people are going to stop the spinning restaurant on top of the old Hyatt Regency downtown. It will be used for private parties and special events but the spinning has come to an end. They say the days of the spinning restaurant have come to an end.
**I have a spinning dinner every evening. It's called GIN.
An annual study on America's most popular brands found that Subway is number one. It's followed by Amazon, History Channel, Google, Cheerios, Lowe's, Ford, Discovery Channel, Apple and Target.
**For those of us who write comedy, our favorite brand is Walmart!
...and will always be Walmart...
COOL IDEA CORNER
If you're tired of people playing on their cell phone whole you're trying to eat, there's a cool new game called "The Phone Stack." When you sit down for dinner, everyone puts their phones face down in the center of the table. The first person who can't resist the ringing and buzzing and grabs their phone to look at it has to pick up the entire check.
A 20-year-old blogger in Ventura, California is getting the credit for coming up with the game. TRY THE PHONE STACK this weekend and let me know how it works for you. Then, call me Monday at 913 576 7997. I'm thinking you can do this at home....and the person who grabs the phone...has to do the dishes.
STICK WITH ME...and I'm going to improve your quality of life...
BEYONCÉ gave birth to a baby girl in New York last Saturday. Her name is Blue Ivy Carter. This is the first child for Beyoncé and JAY-Z.
**The last time a baby was born with this much star power, a manger was involved!
Tim Engle from the Star informs us the National Geographic Channel will film a special in KC. Their focus is people with museum-worthy finds. The show is called "Lost Treasures."
**It's a lot like "Antiques Road Show" except it's called "Lost Treasures."
Missouri gubernatorial candidate Dave Spence touts on his website that he "earned a degree in economics." However the site doesn't explain it's actually a degree in HOME ECONOMICS. Spence later admitted his grades weren't good enough for business school.
**It's a lot like when I revealed I went to Harvard.....for lunch!
Hope you had a great time off and thanks to those of you who helped us start a new tradition at Union Station called - Kiss Under the Clock.
TOP 5 PHRASES YOU WON'T HEAR IN KANSAS CITY IN 2012:
#5. I would go gambling but there's never a casino nearby.
#4. Let's park here. I don't mind paying for the meter.
#3. Billy Butler is leading the home run derby!
#2. I love giving people a ride to the airport.
#1. The city sure is doing a great job of snow-plowing.
With that in mind, Kansas City is on pace to break the least snowfall total this year....not even a trace of snow so far and the record for LEAST SNOW is 4.5 inches in 1923. This year the official total is .1.
**Unfortunately, I measured it with Kelly's Dangling Doppler.
While in Washington, D.C., Kansas City mayor Sly James was told by the U.S. Secretary of Education that KC has the "worst district" in the nation. Mayor James is trying to get the city to take over the district, the interim superintendent says we are "not the worst district..."
**And thousands of KC students are left wondering, "Where is Washington, D.C?"
The mayor was in D.C. to ask for $25 million in federal aid to build a new streetcar line downtown.
**Why don't they just ask for $25 million in parking meter change and maybe more local residents would go downtown?
More proof that soccer is taking over: Sporting KC will have seven nationally televised games in the upcoming season. The MLS wants to reward the team for a strong finish and the league also wants to show off the fancy Livestrong Sporting Park. Some fans were upset because weather became a bit of an issue toward the end of last season.
**A lot of people don't realize this, but Livestrong Sporting Park is situated adjacent to Kansas Speedway and lines up perfectly for a giant rolling roof!
Today's latest FB trend:
Finally a FB fad that's not owling or tebowing! People are posting videos of the song that was number one the week they were born. You can find out your "Birth Song" by going to Wikipedia and looking up the "list of number one hits."
**Talk about feeling old! Mine is Foolish Beat by Debbie Gibson.
A new study has found that men are most likely to hit on blondes . . . but most likely to find brunettes attractive and intelligent. The researchers drew one main conclusion from that . . . men think blondes are most likely to GET LUCKY WITH THEM, so they go after them at bars. When it's time to settle down, they look for a brunette.
**If a guy's at a bar....he's not looking for blondes or brunettes...
He's looking for a pulse.
THE MOST BIZARRE WEDDING BAND STORY EVER!
Sixteen years ago, a woman in Sweden lost her wedding ring while she was baking. And it finally turned up . . . wrapped around a CARROT she picked in her garden. She thinks the ring fell down the garbage disposal, the food scraps were fed to her sheep, and the sheep's waste was used for fertilizer in the garden.
you know what type of ring you call that?
A ONE CARROT RING!
Keith Olbermann did a great job of covering the Iowa caucus.
**When results came in, he would call my cell phone with updates.
Ron Paul received an official endorsement from Kelly Clarkson.
**Of course, I don't cast my vote for anyone until I hear from David Cook.
Finally, if you've noticed that you're buying more stuff than you intended when you head to the store, we have a new list of WAYS COMPANIES TRICK YOU INTO BUYING THEIR STUFF.
According to consumer advocate Martin Lindstrom, 35% of brands are now using nostalgia to take you back to a time when the economy was better so you are in a better mood to buy their stuff. Take a look at Mountain Dew, Doritos and several other brands that have recently started this.
Salespeople use phrases like "good investment" or "investment you can enjoy" as opposed to "purchase," "spend" or "cost."
Supermarkets are moving their entrances to the RIGHT side of the building because, when you shop counterclockwise, you purchase up to 7% more. The thought is, most people are right-handed and it's easier for you to grab stuff.
Stores are installing textured flooring and speed bumps. When we push our shopping carts over bumpy flooring, we spend up to 6% more on nearby items.
Muzak is getting slower because people spend more time in stores where the music has fewer BPM.
Produce prices are displayed on chalk boards to give the impression the products arrive so frequently, they have to change the prices.
Seafood is displayed on crushed ice, even though modern refrigerators do a better job of keeping seafood the right temperature. We associate ice with fresh, unspoiled food.
Make sure you follow me on facebook and twitter, have a great week and join me Monday morning for FREE FLY-AWAYS starting at 7:10 on 99-7 The Point!
Thanks to everyone who got involved in launching a new Kansas City tradition! Since 1914, Union Station has been the second largest train station in the country, second to Grand Central in New York. For years the tradition was to meet people "under the clock" that hangs between the grand hall and the ticketing area. That tradition has been largely forgotten since Americans switched to automobiles and airplanes.
Union Station has seen quite a renaissance since it switched to bringing exhibits and events to town. The Princess Diana exhibit was a big success and the Titanic exhibit will return in 2012 for the 100 year anniversary of the disaster.
I started thinking, why not bring back the "under the clock" tradition by asking people to "Kiss Under the Clock." We are going to hang some mistletoe under the clock and then we let the love flow! Salvation Army volunteers will be standing by as we kick off this tradition Friday, December 23rd. If you're fortunate enough to get a kiss, in return, we ask that you donate to the Salvation Army. A giant Salvation Army pot will be there and look for me and the 99-7 The Point staff until 2:00 that day.
It's fun, it's simple and we need you to help spread the word! A special thank you to George Guastello, Tony Cook and local radio, TV and newspapers for helping us start a tradition in KC that will hopefully be here for years to come!
People magazine has released the results of its Best of 2011 readers' poll. According to People:

2011 Was the Year of: The Royals
**SO TAKE THAT CARDINALS FANS!
MY MOST POPULAR TWEET OF THE WEEK:
I'm thinking about banning cars because they're really starting to distract my texting.
The National Transportation Safety Board is recommending the government ban all mobile devices PERIOD while we're driving.
Every state would have to enforce the ban. They want cell phones only used during emergency situations.
I'm against texting while driving, but I also feel , if they ban cell phones, they should ban smoking, makeup and sneezing.
90 percent of Americans are for a texting ban while driving.
60 percent are for a cell phone talking ban while driving.
80 percent of Americans talk while they're driving and last night,
22 percent of Kansas City residents say they texted while driving on a recent KMBC 9 poll.
Police in Oregon were called to a Toys 'R' Us because there was a 33-year-old man there attacking shoppers with a PLASTIC STAR WARS LIGHT SABER. When they tried to use a Taser on him, he used the force and managed to swat the wires away with the light saber! (That's the funniest visual I've had in a long time!) Finally they tackled and arrested him. Now he's undergoing a mental health evaluation.
**He's also being tested for midi-chlorian levels...
Snoop Dogg Is Going to Be a Contestant on "The Price Is Right":
Snoop is participating in the show's first ever celebrity week. He'll compete against regular, non-celebrity contestants on Monday, January 2nd.

Missouri is using a $740,000 grant to explore voting over the phone and Internet for oversea ballots.
