Online Pick of the Week (10/30) - Family Feud (O'Hurley) Halloween 2009

Happy Halloween. I've got this online pick and something else to share with today. It's Halloween today, so I give you. Halloween Family Feud from 2009 with host John O'Hurley. Yes I know it has the crappy Bullseye round, and it's "modern", it's still pretty good. Family Feud, Halloween, 2009. My online pick of the week.

How I Would Fix the Schedule

With GSN changes coming up, everyone thinks of ways to make it better. Including me :)! Anyway, here's how I would fix it (Primetime).

I would keep Mondays the same.

As for Tuesday's and Wednesday's, I would mix it up between Newlywed Game and Baggage for both nights.

And as for Thursdays, I would throw in a couple hours of Karn and O'Hurley.

Everything else seems fine. That's my opinion.

Online Pick of the Week (10/23) - Pumped up Kicks

I love music. Music of many kinds. One of my favorites is Pumped up Kicks by Foster the People. The tune is pretty catchy, but the lyrics are screwed up beyond belief. No joke. It's about a kid who is not as fortunate as other kids and he seeks revenge on them. Quite sad, but I still enjoy the song.

Pumped up Kicks my online pick of the week.

Well this one is from January 1984 and features Lois Nettleton and Soupy Sales, and a special good play feature, a 21-21 tie. Who will win? Find out.

Online Pick of the Week (10/9) Rayburn's 11

Hi. I've been busy lately with school and all. In response to last week's pick, I chose this. When I first heard Splanky, it reminded me of the music from Rayburn's 11 (just a wee bit) so I thought for this week, I'd do that. Rayburn's 11 started in October 2007 and advertised the older game shows on the lineup. It was resurrected in November 2008. Here is the original 2007 version.

The Apple of our I

Well, there's another guy who just died. You probably know who he is. Steve Jobs passed away yesterday.

In 1974, Jobs took a job as a technician at Atari, Inc. in Los Gatos, California. He traveled to India in the summer of 1974 to visit Neem Karoli Baba at his Kainchi Ashram with a Reed College friend (and, later, an early Apple employee), Daniel Kottke, in search of spiritual enlightenment. However, when they got to the Neem Karoli ashram it was basically deserted after Neem Karoli had died earlier in the year. Then they made a long trek up a huge dry riverbed to an ashram of Hariakhan Baba. In India, they spent a lot of time on endless bus rides from Delhi to Uttar Pradesh and back, then up to Himachal Pradesh and back.

In 1976, Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne founded Apple

The following year, Apple aired a Super Bowl television commercial titled "1984". At Apple's annual shareholders meeting on January 24, 1984, an emotional Jobs introduced the Macintosh to a wildly enthusiastic audience

In 2007, the iPhone and the iPod touch came out. In 2010 the iPad.

On August 24, 2011, he resigned from Apple.

Here is what apple said:

We are deeply saddened to announce that Steve Jobs passed away today. Steve's brilliance, passion and energy were the source of countless innovations that enrich and improve all of our lives. The world is immeasurably better because of Steve.

Personally, he will be missed by me. I owe him a huge debt of gratitude for the gadgets we have today. If it weren't for him, we might not have them. R.I.P. Steve

Online Pick of the Week (10/2) - Splanky

Well, still a little shaken up due to recent news, but let's try to get back to smiling face mode. This week, is Splanky. This is one of Count Basie's many songs, with a nice piano solo throughout, and has a nice jazz ring to it. I played this song last year in jazz band, and I enjoyed it. Hope you do too!

Splanky my online pick of the week.
