Michael Verie Show.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Is on the air, and now a totally random week
in review from the past. Take a guess when this was.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
She said, thank you for the early birthday wishes, but
your talk of catfish is giving me a hankering for
a filet and bowl of red beans and rice. I
know you wouldn't like it, but I mushed the filet
right up in the red bean fall. That's disgusting. I
don't even like catfish, Poe Boys, I don't want my
catfish done anything else. Catfish already falls apart the Greatest
(00:49):
roast of all time.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
The NFL Superstar was the latest celecty get the roast
treatment at Netflix's Greatest Roast of All Time Becauseelle gave
you an ultimatum Tozell, said you retire or re done that.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
She said to you, Tom, you.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Were tired or were done. Let me tell you something,
when you got a chance to go eight and nine,
and all it will cost you is your wife and
your kids.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
You gotta do what you gotta do. Do you understand me?
It is the best roast I've ever seen. There's not
even a number two that's close, and I've watched every
one of the Jeff Ross roasts every one of them.
Speaker 4 (01:24):
Who doesn't love sneakerdodle cookies.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Sneakerdoodle is probably the whitest cookie.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Something happened that slightly shook my world. Emily comes in.
She said, my dad, say, you're talking about cookies, and
she said, my favorite cookie is like, I never heard
of this COOKIEU till it had been around for about
ten years, which is typical snacker doodle it is. And
that bothered me. I went home talking about that. This
Sunday's Mother's Day, guys, one of the most special days
of the year for your mother. You should devote more
time to celebrating the women of your life. She's not
(01:52):
a ball in chain. No, she's not as quote unquote
pretty as the day you met her. The aging process
is not kind. But if you see a picture of
yourself compared to her, you've put on far more weight.
You lost your hair, your feet stink, you fart all
the time. We should honor the women of our lives.
He's an innocent little boy. She's a single mom. She
(02:18):
fails his brown That's another one. It's pretty easy because
there's a tell but only if you remember when Mother's Day.
He's a child of course A Well, I didn't say
it was a professional game and sanction. I'm just saying
that one's easier than some of the others because of
the Mother's Day. There's no betting allowed. DraftKings is sponsoring
(02:45):
the show nationwide. Now you know, for years we toiled
in silence out there, just a little bit plugging along,
and now all of a sudden boom every day, Hey,
so and so wants to sponsor your show. We understand
if that's not consistent with your brand. Twenty years ago
(03:07):
we were out there going, hey, we don't have many
listeners for the ones we do. Were the kind of
people you want coming to your shop. Yes, you did
pantyhose just for the money? Which brand you? And Dan Pastorini?
Remember that that Dan Pastor Was that him or Joe Nama?
(03:28):
I think it was Pastorini, wasn't it? Huh? No? Pastor
Anni laid naked in the playgirl. Yeah, because Playboy had
a playgirl. I always thought that was funny. Ain't no
girl wants to watch it, wants to look at a
man's wiener. That's the craziest thing. I mean, I guess
(03:50):
they did. They sold it. Remember when I had him
on and he got embarrassed about that. Well, we went
after the show to Carabas and he said, you shouldn't
bring that up, and I said, listen, I want to
be very clear. If I was ever in Playgirl magazine
(04:10):
because somebody wanted to see me naked, we would be
talking about it constantly. Okay, you need to understand this.
That is not something to be embarrassed uf that dude.
I hate him so much because he's still good looking
at eighty seven years old. My wife will say, and Pam,
(04:31):
his girl is four years older than him, she's whatever.
Women don't like you to tell her name and show.
I says, why do you chass this deep Maytown accent, Michael?
Why do you always tell people that Pam is this age?
And I say, because, sweetheart, when you're your age and
(04:54):
you look the way you do, you should be proud
of it. I would love for people to say, I'm sorry,
ain't fifty three. He's probably thirty eight. Nope, fifty three,
but nobody says that. Nobody says it. If they did,
I would be happy that people go no, no, believe it
or not. He's fifty three. You can't change how old
(05:15):
you are. You can have an effect on how you look.
I bet Pastoring he'd look good and playgirl now they
still do Playgirl. He outlived Playgirl. How about that he's
last one standing. They just call it play in. Both
of them, you don't know what they are. I'm not
even joking when I tell you this. If my mom
(05:36):
was still alive, she would consent. She would agree to
this pastor in. He's eighty seven years old. If that dude,
if there was a magazine and he was to appear
in it butt naked, it would be record sales. Houston
would go crazy for that thing. I'm not even joking.
That'd be all these old women you've seen it, but
(05:56):
people that haven't seen it, women swoon for that dude,
Absolutely swoon. Johnny Caraba. I went in to get some
gift cards, and you know one thing, I don't like
Ramona's ingratitude. So I went into I was going to
Breathe MD because I was overcoming my upper respiratory infection
(06:18):
at the time, and I wanted to get did I
tell you this already? I wanted to get gift cards
for her whole team. So Johnny comes, so I called
him and I said, hey, I'm running late. I got
to get to the doctor's office before they close. And
I'm sorry, I got stuck in the studio longer than
I expected. I got to get there, get in, get out,
and get back to the studio. And if you don't mind,
(06:39):
can you just have somebody have five hundred dollars in
gift cards fifty dollars apiece at the front desk, and
I'll run in and I'll pay it. And they got
it already rung up and they can run my car.
He said, I'll do you one better. I'll have it
brought out to you. I said, oh, you know, yes,
thank you. And he comes out, and I made the
point that the dude looks like a million dollars. He's
(07:00):
seventy eight years old. He's like Mac. He's got these
perfectly white teeth. I'm not questioning it looks good. Okay,
he's got perfectly black hair, all right, I'll play along. Sure,
he's got great. I think his color is natural. I
think that, like you know, I think that might be
he's just got good Italian color. I'll tell you what
his mom, Rosie if you walk in the door right, well,
(07:23):
it's too early. If you walk in the door at
noon today at Caraba's on Voss, his mom will be
sitting there and she's in her nineties, and you won't
believe she's in her nineties. She still looks so good.
But anyway, I made the point, No, homo, Johnny Caraba
is a very good looking man, and he looks better
(07:44):
today than he's ever looked. He's lean, he pays somebody,
he's got a stylist. He's always dressed to the nines.
And I mean he is the look of the Master
of the House. You know, it's the French musical. He
is the guy that would you walk in hell Fellow
well met. You know, Tony Vallone always wore a nice suit,
(08:08):
custom made suit, shoes, perfectly polished, his hair, perfectly combed.
You know, that's just that's a that's that's the old fact.
You know, they don't do that anymore now. It's all
chef driven. You know, you don't you don't go in
and the owner is there, and the owner, you know
kind of you remember how PG Woodhouse described Jeeves. He
(08:30):
said he would shimmer into the room. That's Johnny Karrab
but he just kind of shimmers through the through the
dining room and it's just like gold dust fall. You
need a piece of Italian cream case. He's not upselling, right,
He's just oh, how's and you go in and you know,
how's n Aditita, how's Michael t how's that first year
at you? I mean that is a skill, that is
(08:51):
a skilled. But apparently all these women were coming up
and saying, you know, Michael's right, you look good. Johnny
kind of embarrassed him, but I think he liked the
Chinese and fattist. Michael Christmas, an illegal alien from Venezuela,
(09:12):
been arrested for stealing tankless water heaters from new homes
under construction. A former HPD detective who is now a
private investigator specializing in construction theft believes this particular illegal
is responsible for stealing hundreds of tankless water heaters from
(09:36):
new homes throughout the Houston area over a two year period.
I guess this bastard's just doing the work we Americans
won't do. Yet another illegal alien in this country committing
crimes that you're paying for. So the next time, John
McCain tells you you want to pay fifty cents for
a head of lettuce instead of five cents? Yeah, I do,
(10:00):
absolutely do, because then I don't have to worry about
my wife or my niece getting raped by one of
these people. And I don't have to worry about one
of them blowing up the country on election day like
the one guy that was going to And I don't
have to get hit by how many times has been
in my life now three by one on the gets out,
no speaking English, no heavy insurance. Yeah, you add up
(10:21):
all the costs of the illegal aliens. Yeah, you'd be
better off just paying a little more for a head
of lettuce. That is correct. The story from Fox twenty six.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
Ten years ago, homebuilders nationwide lost four billion dollars a
day to construction thieves. Now it's ten billion dollars here
in the Greater Houston area. It's an epidemic.
Speaker 6 (10:43):
They've created kind of a subculture, subeconomy where they buy
and sell the stolen construction materials.
Speaker 5 (10:50):
Mark Stevens is a retired Houston police detective. Now he's
a private investigator specializing in construction theft for new homebuilders.
About two years years ago we started investigating this Venezuela
National launt Isaiah Revera.
Speaker 6 (11:05):
He was targeting tankless water heaters because he drives a Honda.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
He doesn't have a truck.
Speaker 6 (11:11):
To put him in, so he could fit five to
six tankless water heaters in his car. He would burglarize
five or six houses at a time, fill his car
up with all these tankless water heaters, and.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
Then drive away.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
Construction sites can be busy sometimes it's hard to tell
who belongs and who doesn't.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
So he would blend in like that and then you
see him, you know, in the garage looking around, wait
for his time, and then he would, you know, run
it out to his car real quick.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
And load up. How many do you think he stole that?
Speaker 6 (11:43):
Hundreds hundreds.
Speaker 5 (11:45):
Mark Stevens says he had a feeling Revera would show
up in Precinct five, so he alerted two sergeants with
the Constable's office.
Speaker 6 (11:53):
Sure enough, he went in and hit One night, they
walked up and he's got two or three water heaters
his back in his truck, in the trunk of his car,
and I think he was working on another one when
they walked up on him.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
It appears Rivera is in the country illegally.
Speaker 6 (12:08):
I believe there's a detainer on him for ice.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
So he shouldn't be able to bond out then.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Hopefully not.
Speaker 6 (12:16):
Hopefully not, because like I said, this guy's only source of.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Income was this.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Probably making a good income. Tankless water heaters, they're expensive.
His new home builders tell me that now, the amount
of theft on their job sites. You you cannot believe
they have to build that into the cost, right.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
That's guys that do retail construction. You know, they've all
got the They got those little panopticon you know, they
drop them down the surveillance video and it starts filming
when you walk up and it's it does the the
police lights on it, and it'll tell you you know
you're being filmed. Uh yeah, we probably better.
Speaker 7 (13:10):
Go ahead that breach immigration.
Speaker 8 (13:17):
Hey, uh, I got I got seven illegal aliens trapped
in my neighbor's house right now.
Speaker 7 (13:24):
They're gone out of shape.
Speaker 8 (13:28):
Look they were, they were up there stealing his shingles,
and I I'll swipe.
Speaker 7 (13:33):
The ladder I got on trapped.
Speaker 8 (13:34):
If they're a y'all want y'all come get them.
Speaker 7 (13:38):
You got people trapped on a roof.
Speaker 8 (13:41):
Yeah, and let me ask you something they're like a
like a reward or something. Block that block that front door,
locking the illegal aliens out there.
Speaker 7 (13:51):
Back up for a second. You got how many seven
people trapped across of a house so their ladder, Yeah,
there wasn't eight.
Speaker 8 (13:58):
One shot me down the drain pipe, and I thought
he was coming to get me, and that's why I
took off running put the latter and he took off
run the other way though, And uh yeah, lots of
dark damny hold.
Speaker 7 (14:10):
Up, I know that they are illegal alias? Do it?
Come again? How do you know that they're illegal? Alias?
Speaker 8 (14:17):
Sheela tolmy Sheila chanting my neighbor teenage daughter, she she
made straight age last year.
Speaker 7 (14:24):
She's a yeah, he's starting to rain. Y'all gonna do
y'all gonna come get them.
Speaker 8 (14:28):
It's a it's coming down pretty bad.
Speaker 7 (14:31):
If what you're telling me is that you're detaining what
you believe her seven illegal AESR. Yes, sir, you can't
do that. Hold them against their will? Do what you
can't hold them against their will, by the hell not.
The border is more like.
Speaker 8 (14:48):
A damn state line and they're just sitting there. I
got them caught. All you gotta do is got them
up their draft. You got you gotta come get them.
It doesn't matter you don't have the authority. I mean,
it's it's raining. I mean you need to you need
to just come get them because it says it's raining
pretty bad.
Speaker 7 (15:06):
If I were you, I would go put the ladder
back up and let them get down. Okay, I'll go
put the freaking ladder back up. Get them up on
the roof.
Speaker 8 (15:13):
Well, okay, I just go, I hope, get them down
with drave their asses off, with the American flag, and
we'll give them lighting shirts and helping shirt.
Speaker 7 (15:21):
And food stamps and whatnot. And meanwhile, Mama can't afford
a prescription medicine. It's just if you just give me
an address, I can notify the sorties and let them
and see.
Speaker 8 (15:30):
Yeah, no, no, no, I just I got this.
Speaker 7 (15:32):
I got to think. Thanks for your time. I got it.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
I got an email from Jason who says, as a child,
my parents took me and my little brother in ron
Field or maybe it was minute made already I can't remember,
for an Astros game, and somehow I was entered into
a contest to sing take me out to the ball game.
I can't carry a tune with a bucket. Somehow, in
(15:56):
a bucket, I won tickets to the two thousand and
four All Star Game in Houston. The seats were really good.
They were along the first base dugout, and they were
way closer to the field than I'd ever been able
to sit. One of my favorite childhood memories. And then
I got this one from Lauren. You are requesting that
(16:19):
people call in that won something, and I won under
the leadership of Donald J. Trump. Missed Texas two thousand
and six. The pageant was televised across five states, and
I won a Ford Mustang convertible along with other prizes,
(16:39):
and it was truly an amazing year. Now, ramon, you
know my rule, right, if somebody won, no, I got
the picture. If somebody won Miss Texas last year, you
click on the picture. If they won Miss Texas five
(17:00):
years ago, you go, well sometimes, you know, but if
it's eighteen years ago, you ought not click on the picture.
Just lock something in your mind. I clicked on the picture,
and then I looked her up on the Facebook. And
let's just say she'd still win Miss Texas today. She's
(17:21):
that good of looking and looks like she's got a
daughter and the daughter smoke show too, just just same.
Of course that's eighteen years, so maybe I'm not allowed
to say she's a smoke show for a year or
two yet. But let's just say she's a very, very
pretty woman even to this day. I'm not giving you
(17:45):
her last name, you threap. Just look up Lauren and
hooke around for man or that big jump here is
either up and poor wear that four foot dish, the
Michael Berry Shows.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
The Evil Can Evil Stunt Cycle Rum Ideal.
Speaker 5 (18:08):
Brodect can, prodcts can for them. The three privates first, while.
Speaker 7 (18:20):
The second.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
If you have a an app or some sort of
software you use on your phone or in your truck
that tells you about traffic, you should definitely check it out.
If you are headed to the Golden Nugget in Lake Charles.
Right now in I ten West, I am being advised
(18:45):
by Beaumont listeners that there is a pretty nasty accident
in Beaumont that has westbound I ten shut down at College,
all traffic being diverted. It's a nightmare. Don't even get
close to it. I tend backed up to the Nature's
River Bridge. I'm not sure about fifty nine. Well, I
(19:06):
can guarantee you that the other side is going to
be backed up to because idiots can't help themselves and
they slow down because the other side. I wish there
was a way. I wish it was like a cattle proud.
I don't want to kill anything. I mean, I don't
want to kill people, but I don't want to kill
(19:27):
these people. I don't want to kill anybody. I just
want to give them just a little just a little stick,
you know what I mean. And I'll give you the
list of them. Ramon people who are on their phone
and don't go when the light turns green. A hawk
is not good enough. Ah shoot, yeah, you'll think about
(19:52):
that at the next stop light, won't you. I don't
know the waters or the volts or the amps. We
could work it out. We could test it out, you know,
just a small taze. I'm not trying to send anybody
into heart attack. I'm not trying to burn their skin,
but I do want to get their attention. I definitely
want to get their attention. That's one. The other one
(20:14):
is Eddie Martini's wife used a term I've never heard,
a Mississippi swing, and that is when you're driving and
you go to turn right and you swing out to
the left. I don't understand it's women that do this.
I think. I don't know if they think they're driving
an eighteen wheeler, because you got to do that when
(20:35):
you got a big trailer on the back. But for
your average SUV and six kids in the back, you
don't need. Your wheelbase is not that long. You can
cut that corner a lot tighter than you think. You
see these people, it's always women, not people, and they're
going to turn right, so they go all the way
into the left lane to line it up, so they
(20:57):
go straight onto the perpendicular street up straight. What in
the hell I tell you who? The next one is
the people who know I'm waiting hovering in the parking
lot and they come out and I'm sorry to say this,
and I'm not gonna sap her. I'm gonna sap everybody
butt her and maybe she'll get the point, although that's
not likely because my wife does it. The people who
(21:19):
come out of a store or a restaurant and they
got the last parking spot and you're waiting on them,
And then, let me tell you something, God bless her.
I love my wife so much. But let me tell
you what my wife will do. She will come out
to her vehicle. She my wife. I think this is
from growing up in India because there's the crowd that
(21:41):
you're always being jostled in India, you never have any
space to breathe. Everybody's bumping into everybody all the time.
They don't even think anything of it. It's just crowded, just
the population density. It's it's a lot. It's like it's
like Black Friday at the door, you know, they just
opening it up kind of thing. And so she is
(22:01):
unaware of anybody ever ever, like, I'm bothered by everything
every but somebody's chewing their gum. I'm bothered clicking their pin.
Let me have that pin tapping their foot. Stop mosquito's buzzing.
We got to kill it. But she doesn't notice anything.
My bride will walk out of a restaurant and there's
(22:23):
cars waiting to get in there. She will go to
her suv in no particular hurry and not to be rude,
she will get in. She doesn't It could be one
hundred and five degrees outside. She doesn't turn the air
conditioning on until she gets everything set so if you're
coming out of surgery and she's driving, you turn that
(22:46):
thing on. Get me some air blowing in here. So
she gets in, shuts the door, locks the doors, and
she begins her check down, like a pilot on the
biggest plane. She begins her check down. She takes the
mirror like it would have changed since she went in.
She sets the mirror, She sets her side mirrors. These
(23:10):
aren't mirrors that turn in when you park, okay, but
she checks to make sure all her she got a
checklist in her mind. She checks her seat. She might
adjust the seat. The seat didn't move from when she
went in. She goes little higher. She's little bitty, so
she'll lift it up a little higher. Oh that's too high,
and she'll go back down. And then, even though I've
(23:32):
shown her that you can you can push the brake out.
Because their little legs are so short, she gets jammed
way up in there so she can hit the brake.
And I still think she has to screech down to
hit the brake. She gets everything done, She turns the voyme.
She she everything, and then she starts it up. And
(23:54):
then once she starts it up, some of them it
moved so now she read goes she goes search again,
and you're sitting there and you got your blinker on
for her spot, and two other spots have come open,
but other people have claimed those, and you can't go. Hey,
I'm going over there. This Asian lady's gonna be here
for a while. So she goes through the checkdown again.
(24:16):
She sets the volume on the music, she doesn't like
it to be too loud, and she's starting and all that.
She then wants everything is done. She checks, you know,
make sure there wasn't anybody in the vehicle with her,
you know, maybe a baby in the vaccat, puts the
brake on, looks around. You think I'm kidding. She drops
it down into reverse. It's not intuitive, so she may
(24:37):
accidentally got into drive and then come back into reverse. Okay,
I got that. She turns back and looks again, and
then she eases out, and I mean easees out, and
there's people if for whatever reason, she's driving, and I'm not.
I can feel these people, you know, just all the
frustration they placed it. Somebody sent me an email la
(25:09):
K E N T O l A. What kind of
name do you think that is? And I'm guessing Indonesia
where you think, because the sock is Asian but it's
not Chinese. I'm gonna spell it for you. K e
n t o l A is the first name, Cantola Kintla,
(25:33):
but it might be pronounced totally different because you got
to remember that's not the native language. They just put
it into English, and so sometimes you know what, it's
not Finnish. First of all, nobody's from Finland, all right,
you'll never meet anybody from Finland, so I never guess Finland.
Number two, the sock or soaks, Okay, that tells me
(25:58):
it's one of the It's not Scandinavian, It's not. It
is not it's one of the Tiger nations. It's either
going to be Cambodian, or it's gonna be could be Tie,
or it's going to be Indonesian. Don't look it up.
(26:22):
That's my guess as to what it is. Gary writes,
my wife is the same as yours. I'm fearful someone
will go to the window with a gun while she's
adjusting things. The temperature, radio and seats are set when
I buy the vehicle, never again until someone else drives it.
I'm three miles from my coffee shop across from brown Water. Oh,
(26:45):
that's in Brenham. We walk out of the house together.
I'm refilling my coffee before she arrives. By the way,
there's also a shutdown process. Oh me too. That's Gary Lacamu.
Our friend owns Texas aneline dye company at about five
other companies. Like he's Nigerian or something. He's not Nigeria.
He just owns a bunch of companies. John Yoakam writes,
(27:08):
I won a trip to the US Tennis Open and
my parents stole it. As a fifteen year old, I
played tennis in the USTA. I didn't know this, but
every year they gave away a week long trip to
the US Open. I got a letter in the mail
addressed to me letting me know I won the grand prize.
I was excited and gave it to my parents. In
(27:28):
the end, my parents told me I couldn't miss that
much school, So my mom and dad went on the
trip and I went to school. There was a picture
on my fridge forever of them at the tournament, and
it tormented me every day. Love your Show. Wendy Andres
from Blanco Texas Rights. When I was about ten. In
(27:48):
nineteen seventy nine, I entered the little Miss DCC contest
by right Dallas Cowboys cheerleader. Apparently he says in the
other one by writing a little paragraph and dropping it
in the box at Sears in Fort Worth. A few
years later, I received a letter. Sorry. A few weeks later,
I received a letter saying I had been picked. Part
of the prize was getting to go to a party
(28:10):
at Texas Stadium with all of the Cowboys cheerleaders. Pretty
sure that was one of the very few days my
dad was glad to have a daughter. You know that
guy whose parents went to the US Open without him
and how aggravated that made him. One day, We're going
to do a show on people who were still butt
(28:33):
hurt years later from something somebody did to them years ago.
John Wright Zar We entered a contest years ago, and
my son got to be on the field for the
first Texans game for the coin toss. We got the
VIP treatment and my son got a game ball. Sorry,
I forgot the year, but it was the very first
game for the Texans in Houston. Have a great day,
(28:56):
Joshua writes my winning story. My name is Joshua Hayworth.
When I was just starting my window cleaning company, the
company from whom I ordered all my supplies was having
one of those place in order and you're entered to
win contests for a new window cleaning stack ladder set.
(29:16):
It's like a sixteen hundred dollars ladder set for working
on interior windows in type places where you can't get
an extension ladder into. I was super low on cash
and really needed that ladder. I needed a couple other
small items like a squeegee, rubber and soap, so I
placed my order for fifty two dollars. I got a
(29:38):
call from the company on Monday saying, you won. It's
not a huge prize, but it was huge to me.
Have a great morning and a merry christ. That's a
nice story. I got that Lauren Lanning wrong, the woman
who was Missed Texas in two thousand and six. I
went to the Facebook and the Firstlauren Lanning I found
(30:01):
was a very cute blonde woman, and I just assumed
that was her. But then I realized Lauren Lanning had
sent a picture of herself in two thousand and six
as Miss Texas two thousand and six, and she had
dark hair. There's no chance she went from that darker
hair as Miss Texas to blonde later. That just wouldn't happen, right,
So I went and looked, and now she's Lauren Lanning
(30:22):
Jeruskeebuska or something, some Polish guy or something the last name.
But she's still a very pretty grudge. I want to
make that point. In the late sixties, twenty thousand SNH
green stamps from a contest held at this grocery chain
here in Houston. My parents allowed me to redeem some
of the points for a deluxe Monopoly game lots of
(30:44):
licking and sticking. My son won a twenty thousand dollars
college scholarship in the CCA Star State of Texas Anglers
Rodeo contest, held annually from Memorial Day to Labor Day,
by catching the upper post speckled trout first place eight pound,
(31:04):
four ounce in their Star Kids division. Well, that's interesting,
that's a win. I'll count that as a win. Ramon, Lauren,
what did you win?
Speaker 4 (31:16):
Well, you were just talking about that.
Speaker 7 (31:20):
Was me.
Speaker 4 (31:21):
Yeah, So Lauren Lanning and the last name is Gara Simowitz.
Speaker 1 (31:26):
Yeah, it's something called right, It is Polish.
Speaker 4 (31:28):
It is Polish, Yes, sir, so, yeah, I won this
Texas USA two thousand and six.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
Your daughter looks just like you, and your son looks
just like your husband. And then there's a little bit by. Hey,
what breed is that dog. That's a beautiful dog.
Speaker 4 (31:48):
Oh he's my heart other than my son, but a
King Charles Spaniel.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
Oh yeah, I have three of them he has. Yeah,
he has the best set of eyes on a dog
have ever. Those things are so expressive. What a great picture.
Speaker 4 (32:04):
And well that's probably how he gets a lot of
our table food.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
Probably is u. And that's a little girl. Is that
a little girl? That's your it is?
Speaker 4 (32:13):
Yes, that's that's Lilian. She was named after my husband's
mother that passed away when he was a teenager, so
we honored her.
Speaker 1 (32:21):
Well, my problem is now you don't have school, you
don't have perfect symmetry in your family. You got one
boy and one girl. Then you go that was an
oopsie baby, wasn't it.
Speaker 4 (32:32):
No, she was three years of IVS. She was fully planned.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
Oh y'all want that? What does Bubba do? He he
was like a big fellow.
Speaker 4 (32:41):
He is he is a almost going to be a
senior at the Woodlands High School. But he plays varsity
football for the Woodland High School.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
Oh, well, that's saying something because they're good. I mean,
your husband.
Speaker 2 (32:51):
What does he do?
Speaker 4 (32:52):
Oh he used to play h He used to play
football at the Wodland High School too. But he's in
real estate with his.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
Family, the Gerasimosoviches.
Speaker 4 (33:03):
The Garrison wishes as it is, Yes, sir,
It's that time, time, time, time, luck and load. So
Michael Verie Show.
Speaker 2 (00:13):
Is on the air, and now a totally random week
in review from the past. Take a guess when this was.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
She said, thank you for the early birthday wishes, but
your talk of catfish is giving me a hankering for
a filet and bowl of red beans and rice. I
know you wouldn't like it, but I mushed the filet
right up in the red bean fall. That's disgusting. I
don't even like catfish, Poe Boys, I don't want my
catfish done anything else. Catfish already falls apart the Greatest
(00:49):
roast of all time.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
The NFL Superstar was the latest celecty get the roast
treatment at Netflix's Greatest Roast of All Time Becauseelle gave
you an ultimatum Tozell, said you retire or re done that.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
She said to you, Tom, you.
Speaker 3 (01:02):
Were tired or were done. Let me tell you something,
when you got a chance to go eight and nine,
and all it will cost you is your wife and
your kids.
Speaker 1 (01:12):
You gotta do what you gotta do. Do you understand me?
It is the best roast I've ever seen. There's not
even a number two that's close, and I've watched every
one of the Jeff Ross roasts every one of them.
Speaker 4 (01:24):
Who doesn't love sneakerdodle cookies.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
Sneakerdoodle is probably the whitest cookie.
Speaker 1 (01:29):
Something happened that slightly shook my world. Emily comes in.
She said, my dad, say, you're talking about cookies, and
she said, my favorite cookie is like, I never heard
of this COOKIEU till it had been around for about
ten years, which is typical snacker doodle it is. And
that bothered me. I went home talking about that. This
Sunday's Mother's Day, guys, one of the most special days
of the year for your mother. You should devote more
time to celebrating the women of your life. She's not
(01:52):
a ball in chain. No, she's not as quote unquote
pretty as the day you met her. The aging process
is not kind. But if you see a picture of
yourself compared to her, you've put on far more weight.
You lost your hair, your feet stink, you fart all
the time. We should honor the women of our lives.
He's an innocent little boy. She's a single mom. She
(02:18):
fails his brown That's another one. It's pretty easy because
there's a tell but only if you remember when Mother's Day.
He's a child of course A Well, I didn't say
it was a professional game and sanction. I'm just saying
that one's easier than some of the others because of
the Mother's Day. There's no betting allowed. DraftKings is sponsoring
(02:45):
the show nationwide. Now you know, for years we toiled
in silence out there, just a little bit plugging along,
and now all of a sudden boom every day, Hey,
so and so wants to sponsor your show. We understand
if that's not consistent with your brand. Twenty years ago
(03:07):
we were out there going, hey, we don't have many
listeners for the ones we do. Were the kind of
people you want coming to your shop. Yes, you did
pantyhose just for the money? Which brand you? And Dan Pastorini?
Remember that that Dan Pastor Was that him or Joe Nama?
(03:28):
I think it was Pastorini, wasn't it? Huh? No? Pastor
Anni laid naked in the playgirl. Yeah, because Playboy had
a playgirl. I always thought that was funny. Ain't no
girl wants to watch it, wants to look at a
man's wiener. That's the craziest thing. I mean, I guess
(03:50):
they did. They sold it. Remember when I had him
on and he got embarrassed about that. Well, we went
after the show to Carabas and he said, you shouldn't
bring that up, and I said, listen, I want to
be very clear. If I was ever in Playgirl magazine
(04:10):
because somebody wanted to see me naked, we would be
talking about it constantly. Okay, you need to understand this.
That is not something to be embarrassed uf that dude.
I hate him so much because he's still good looking
at eighty seven years old. My wife will say, and Pam,
(04:31):
his girl is four years older than him, she's whatever.
Women don't like you to tell her name and show.
I says, why do you chass this deep Maytown accent, Michael?
Why do you always tell people that Pam is this age?
And I say, because, sweetheart, when you're your age and
(04:54):
you look the way you do, you should be proud
of it. I would love for people to say, I'm sorry,
ain't fifty three. He's probably thirty eight. Nope, fifty three,
but nobody says that. Nobody says it. If they did,
I would be happy that people go no, no, believe it
or not. He's fifty three. You can't change how old
(05:15):
you are. You can have an effect on how you look.
I bet Pastoring he'd look good and playgirl now they
still do Playgirl. He outlived Playgirl. How about that he's
last one standing. They just call it play in. Both
of them, you don't know what they are. I'm not
even joking when I tell you this. If my mom
(05:36):
was still alive, she would consent. She would agree to
this pastor in. He's eighty seven years old. If that dude,
if there was a magazine and he was to appear
in it butt naked, it would be record sales. Houston
would go crazy for that thing. I'm not even joking.
That'd be all these old women you've seen it, but
(05:56):
people that haven't seen it, women swoon for that dude,
Absolutely swoon. Johnny Caraba. I went in to get some
gift cards, and you know one thing, I don't like
Ramona's ingratitude. So I went into I was going to
Breathe MD because I was overcoming my upper respiratory infection
(06:18):
at the time, and I wanted to get did I
tell you this already? I wanted to get gift cards
for her whole team. So Johnny comes, so I called
him and I said, hey, I'm running late. I got
to get to the doctor's office before they close. And
I'm sorry, I got stuck in the studio longer than
I expected. I got to get there, get in, get out,
and get back to the studio. And if you don't mind,
(06:39):
can you just have somebody have five hundred dollars in
gift cards fifty dollars apiece at the front desk, and
I'll run in and I'll pay it. And they got
it already rung up and they can run my car.
He said, I'll do you one better. I'll have it
brought out to you. I said, oh, you know, yes,
thank you. And he comes out, and I made the
point that the dude looks like a million dollars. He's
(07:00):
seventy eight years old. He's like Mac. He's got these
perfectly white teeth. I'm not questioning it looks good. Okay,
he's got perfectly black hair, all right, I'll play along. Sure,
he's got great. I think his color is natural. I
think that, like you know, I think that might be
he's just got good Italian color. I'll tell you what
his mom, Rosie if you walk in the door right, well,
(07:23):
it's too early. If you walk in the door at
noon today at Caraba's on Voss, his mom will be
sitting there and she's in her nineties, and you won't
believe she's in her nineties. She still looks so good.
But anyway, I made the point, No, homo, Johnny Caraba
is a very good looking man, and he looks better
(07:44):
today than he's ever looked. He's lean, he pays somebody,
he's got a stylist. He's always dressed to the nines.
And I mean he is the look of the Master
of the House. You know, it's the French musical. He
is the guy that would you walk in hell Fellow
well met. You know, Tony Vallone always wore a nice suit,
(08:08):
custom made suit, shoes, perfectly polished, his hair, perfectly combed.
You know, that's just that's a that's that's the old fact.
You know, they don't do that anymore now. It's all
chef driven. You know, you don't you don't go in
and the owner is there, and the owner, you know
kind of you remember how PG Woodhouse described Jeeves. He
(08:30):
said he would shimmer into the room. That's Johnny Karrab
but he just kind of shimmers through the through the
dining room and it's just like gold dust fall. You
need a piece of Italian cream case. He's not upselling, right,
He's just oh, how's and you go in and you know,
how's n Aditita, how's Michael t how's that first year
at you? I mean that is a skill, that is
(08:51):
a skilled. But apparently all these women were coming up
and saying, you know, Michael's right, you look good. Johnny
kind of embarrassed him, but I think he liked the
Chinese and fattist. Michael Christmas, an illegal alien from Venezuela,
(09:12):
been arrested for stealing tankless water heaters from new homes
under construction. A former HPD detective who is now a
private investigator specializing in construction theft believes this particular illegal
is responsible for stealing hundreds of tankless water heaters from
(09:36):
new homes throughout the Houston area over a two year period.
I guess this bastard's just doing the work we Americans
won't do. Yet another illegal alien in this country committing
crimes that you're paying for. So the next time, John
McCain tells you you want to pay fifty cents for
a head of lettuce instead of five cents? Yeah, I do,
(10:00):
absolutely do, because then I don't have to worry about
my wife or my niece getting raped by one of
these people. And I don't have to worry about one
of them blowing up the country on election day like
the one guy that was going to And I don't
have to get hit by how many times has been
in my life now three by one on the gets out,
no speaking English, no heavy insurance. Yeah, you add up
(10:21):
all the costs of the illegal aliens. Yeah, you'd be
better off just paying a little more for a head
of lettuce. That is correct. The story from Fox twenty six.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
Ten years ago, homebuilders nationwide lost four billion dollars a
day to construction thieves. Now it's ten billion dollars here
in the Greater Houston area. It's an epidemic.
Speaker 6 (10:43):
They've created kind of a subculture, subeconomy where they buy
and sell the stolen construction materials.
Speaker 5 (10:50):
Mark Stevens is a retired Houston police detective. Now he's
a private investigator specializing in construction theft for new homebuilders.
About two years years ago we started investigating this Venezuela
National launt Isaiah Revera.
Speaker 6 (11:05):
He was targeting tankless water heaters because he drives a Honda.
Speaker 1 (11:10):
He doesn't have a truck.
Speaker 6 (11:11):
To put him in, so he could fit five to
six tankless water heaters in his car. He would burglarize
five or six houses at a time, fill his car
up with all these tankless water heaters, and.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
Then drive away.
Speaker 5 (11:24):
Construction sites can be busy sometimes it's hard to tell
who belongs and who doesn't.
Speaker 6 (11:30):
So he would blend in like that and then you
see him, you know, in the garage looking around, wait
for his time, and then he would, you know, run
it out to his car real quick.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
And load up. How many do you think he stole that?
Speaker 6 (11:43):
Hundreds hundreds.
Speaker 5 (11:45):
Mark Stevens says he had a feeling Revera would show
up in Precinct five, so he alerted two sergeants with
the Constable's office.
Speaker 6 (11:53):
Sure enough, he went in and hit One night, they
walked up and he's got two or three water heaters
his back in his truck, in the trunk of his car,
and I think he was working on another one when
they walked up on him.
Speaker 5 (12:06):
It appears Rivera is in the country illegally.
Speaker 6 (12:08):
I believe there's a detainer on him for ice.
Speaker 5 (12:11):
So he shouldn't be able to bond out then.
Speaker 1 (12:14):
Hopefully not.
Speaker 6 (12:16):
Hopefully not, because like I said, this guy's only source of.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
Income was this.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
Probably making a good income. Tankless water heaters, they're expensive.
His new home builders tell me that now, the amount
of theft on their job sites. You you cannot believe
they have to build that into the cost, right.
Speaker 1 (12:43):
That's guys that do retail construction. You know, they've all
got the They got those little panopticon you know, they
drop them down the surveillance video and it starts filming
when you walk up and it's it does the the
police lights on it, and it'll tell you you know
you're being filmed. Uh yeah, we probably better.
Speaker 7 (13:10):
Go ahead that breach immigration.
Speaker 8 (13:17):
Hey, uh, I got I got seven illegal aliens trapped
in my neighbor's house right now.
Speaker 7 (13:24):
They're gone out of shape.
Speaker 8 (13:28):
Look they were, they were up there stealing his shingles,
and I I'll swipe.
Speaker 7 (13:33):
The ladder I got on trapped.
Speaker 8 (13:34):
If they're a y'all want y'all come get them.
Speaker 7 (13:38):
You got people trapped on a roof.
Speaker 8 (13:41):
Yeah, and let me ask you something they're like a
like a reward or something. Block that block that front door,
locking the illegal aliens out there.
Speaker 7 (13:51):
Back up for a second. You got how many seven
people trapped across of a house so their ladder, Yeah,
there wasn't eight.
Speaker 8 (13:58):
One shot me down the drain pipe, and I thought
he was coming to get me, and that's why I
took off running put the latter and he took off
run the other way though, And uh yeah, lots of
dark damny hold.
Speaker 7 (14:10):
Up, I know that they are illegal alias? Do it?
Come again? How do you know that they're illegal? Alias?
Speaker 8 (14:17):
Sheela tolmy Sheila chanting my neighbor teenage daughter, she she
made straight age last year.
Speaker 7 (14:24):
She's a yeah, he's starting to rain. Y'all gonna do
y'all gonna come get them.
Speaker 8 (14:28):
It's a it's coming down pretty bad.
Speaker 7 (14:31):
If what you're telling me is that you're detaining what
you believe her seven illegal AESR. Yes, sir, you can't
do that. Hold them against their will? Do what you
can't hold them against their will, by the hell not.
The border is more like.
Speaker 8 (14:48):
A damn state line and they're just sitting there. I
got them caught. All you gotta do is got them
up their draft. You got you gotta come get them.
It doesn't matter you don't have the authority. I mean,
it's it's raining. I mean you need to you need
to just come get them because it says it's raining
pretty bad.
Speaker 7 (15:06):
If I were you, I would go put the ladder
back up and let them get down. Okay, I'll go
put the freaking ladder back up. Get them up on
the roof.
Speaker 8 (15:13):
Well, okay, I just go, I hope, get them down
with drave their asses off, with the American flag, and
we'll give them lighting shirts and helping shirt.
Speaker 7 (15:21):
And food stamps and whatnot. And meanwhile, Mama can't afford
a prescription medicine. It's just if you just give me
an address, I can notify the sorties and let them
and see.
Speaker 8 (15:30):
Yeah, no, no, no, I just I got this.
Speaker 7 (15:32):
I got to think. Thanks for your time. I got it.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
I got an email from Jason who says, as a child,
my parents took me and my little brother in ron
Field or maybe it was minute made already I can't remember,
for an Astros game, and somehow I was entered into
a contest to sing take me out to the ball game.
I can't carry a tune with a bucket. Somehow, in
(15:56):
a bucket, I won tickets to the two thousand and
four All Star Game in Houston. The seats were really good.
They were along the first base dugout, and they were
way closer to the field than I'd ever been able
to sit. One of my favorite childhood memories. And then
I got this one from Lauren. You are requesting that
(16:19):
people call in that won something, and I won under
the leadership of Donald J. Trump. Missed Texas two thousand
and six. The pageant was televised across five states, and
I won a Ford Mustang convertible along with other prizes,
(16:39):
and it was truly an amazing year. Now, ramon, you
know my rule, right, if somebody won, no, I got
the picture. If somebody won Miss Texas last year, you
click on the picture. If they won Miss Texas five
(17:00):
years ago, you go, well sometimes, you know, but if
it's eighteen years ago, you ought not click on the picture.
Just lock something in your mind. I clicked on the picture,
and then I looked her up on the Facebook. And
let's just say she'd still win Miss Texas today. She's
(17:21):
that good of looking and looks like she's got a
daughter and the daughter smoke show too, just just same.
Of course that's eighteen years, so maybe I'm not allowed
to say she's a smoke show for a year or
two yet. But let's just say she's a very, very
pretty woman even to this day. I'm not giving you
(17:45):
her last name, you threap. Just look up Lauren and
hooke around for man or that big jump here is
either up and poor wear that four foot dish, the
Michael Berry Shows.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
The Evil Can Evil Stunt Cycle Rum Ideal.
Speaker 5 (18:08):
Brodect can, prodcts can for them. The three privates first, while.
Speaker 7 (18:20):
The second.
Speaker 1 (18:24):
If you have a an app or some sort of
software you use on your phone or in your truck
that tells you about traffic, you should definitely check it out.
If you are headed to the Golden Nugget in Lake Charles.
Right now in I ten West, I am being advised
(18:45):
by Beaumont listeners that there is a pretty nasty accident
in Beaumont that has westbound I ten shut down at College,
all traffic being diverted. It's a nightmare. Don't even get
close to it. I tend backed up to the Nature's
River Bridge. I'm not sure about fifty nine. Well, I
(19:06):
can guarantee you that the other side is going to
be backed up to because idiots can't help themselves and
they slow down because the other side. I wish there
was a way. I wish it was like a cattle proud.
I don't want to kill anything. I mean, I don't
want to kill people, but I don't want to kill
(19:27):
these people. I don't want to kill anybody. I just
want to give them just a little just a little stick,
you know what I mean. And I'll give you the
list of them. Ramon people who are on their phone
and don't go when the light turns green. A hawk
is not good enough. Ah shoot, yeah, you'll think about
(19:52):
that at the next stop light, won't you. I don't
know the waters or the volts or the amps. We
could work it out. We could test it out, you know,
just a small taze. I'm not trying to send anybody
into heart attack. I'm not trying to burn their skin,
but I do want to get their attention. I definitely
want to get their attention. That's one. The other one
(20:14):
is Eddie Martini's wife used a term I've never heard,
a Mississippi swing, and that is when you're driving and
you go to turn right and you swing out to
the left. I don't understand it's women that do this.
I think. I don't know if they think they're driving
an eighteen wheeler, because you got to do that when
(20:35):
you got a big trailer on the back. But for
your average SUV and six kids in the back, you
don't need. Your wheelbase is not that long. You can
cut that corner a lot tighter than you think. You
see these people, it's always women, not people, and they're
going to turn right, so they go all the way
into the left lane to line it up, so they
(20:57):
go straight onto the perpendicular street up straight. What in
the hell I tell you who? The next one is
the people who know I'm waiting hovering in the parking
lot and they come out and I'm sorry to say this,
and I'm not gonna sap her. I'm gonna sap everybody
butt her and maybe she'll get the point, although that's
not likely because my wife does it. The people who
(21:19):
come out of a store or a restaurant and they
got the last parking spot and you're waiting on them,
And then, let me tell you something, God bless her.
I love my wife so much. But let me tell
you what my wife will do. She will come out
to her vehicle. She my wife. I think this is
from growing up in India because there's the crowd that
(21:41):
you're always being jostled in India, you never have any
space to breathe. Everybody's bumping into everybody all the time.
They don't even think anything of it. It's just crowded, just
the population density. It's it's a lot. It's like it's
like Black Friday at the door, you know, they just
opening it up kind of thing. And so she is
(22:01):
unaware of anybody ever ever, like, I'm bothered by everything
every but somebody's chewing their gum. I'm bothered clicking their pin.
Let me have that pin tapping their foot. Stop mosquito's buzzing.
We got to kill it. But she doesn't notice anything.
My bride will walk out of a restaurant and there's
(22:23):
cars waiting to get in there. She will go to
her suv in no particular hurry and not to be rude,
she will get in. She doesn't It could be one
hundred and five degrees outside. She doesn't turn the air
conditioning on until she gets everything set so if you're
coming out of surgery and she's driving, you turn that
(22:46):
thing on. Get me some air blowing in here. So
she gets in, shuts the door, locks the doors, and
she begins her check down, like a pilot on the
biggest plane. She begins her check down. She takes the
mirror like it would have changed since she went in.
She sets the mirror, She sets her side mirrors. These
(23:10):
aren't mirrors that turn in when you park, okay, but
she checks to make sure all her she got a
checklist in her mind. She checks her seat. She might
adjust the seat. The seat didn't move from when she
went in. She goes little higher. She's little bitty, so
she'll lift it up a little higher. Oh that's too high,
and she'll go back down. And then, even though I've
(23:32):
shown her that you can you can push the brake out.
Because their little legs are so short, she gets jammed
way up in there so she can hit the brake.
And I still think she has to screech down to
hit the brake. She gets everything done, She turns the voyme.
She she everything, and then she starts it up. And
(23:54):
then once she starts it up, some of them it
moved so now she read goes she goes search again,
and you're sitting there and you got your blinker on
for her spot, and two other spots have come open,
but other people have claimed those, and you can't go. Hey,
I'm going over there. This Asian lady's gonna be here
for a while. So she goes through the checkdown again.
(24:16):
She sets the volume on the music, she doesn't like
it to be too loud, and she's starting and all that.
She then wants everything is done. She checks, you know,
make sure there wasn't anybody in the vehicle with her,
you know, maybe a baby in the vaccat, puts the
brake on, looks around. You think I'm kidding. She drops
it down into reverse. It's not intuitive, so she may
(24:37):
accidentally got into drive and then come back into reverse. Okay,
I got that. She turns back and looks again, and
then she eases out, and I mean easees out, and
there's people if for whatever reason, she's driving, and I'm not.
I can feel these people, you know, just all the
frustration they placed it. Somebody sent me an email la
(25:09):
K E N T O l A. What kind of
name do you think that is? And I'm guessing Indonesia
where you think, because the sock is Asian but it's
not Chinese. I'm gonna spell it for you. K e
n t o l A is the first name, Cantola Kintla,
(25:33):
but it might be pronounced totally different because you got
to remember that's not the native language. They just put
it into English, and so sometimes you know what, it's
not Finnish. First of all, nobody's from Finland, all right,
you'll never meet anybody from Finland, so I never guess Finland.
Number two, the sock or soaks, Okay, that tells me
(25:58):
it's one of the It's not Scandinavian, It's not. It
is not it's one of the Tiger nations. It's either
going to be Cambodian, or it's gonna be could be Tie,
or it's going to be Indonesian. Don't look it up.
(26:22):
That's my guess as to what it is. Gary writes,
my wife is the same as yours. I'm fearful someone
will go to the window with a gun while she's
adjusting things. The temperature, radio and seats are set when
I buy the vehicle, never again until someone else drives it.
I'm three miles from my coffee shop across from brown Water. Oh,
(26:45):
that's in Brenham. We walk out of the house together.
I'm refilling my coffee before she arrives. By the way,
there's also a shutdown process. Oh me too. That's Gary Lacamu.
Our friend owns Texas aneline dye company at about five
other companies. Like he's Nigerian or something. He's not Nigeria.
He just owns a bunch of companies. John Yoakam writes,
(27:08):
I won a trip to the US Tennis Open and
my parents stole it. As a fifteen year old, I
played tennis in the USTA. I didn't know this, but
every year they gave away a week long trip to
the US Open. I got a letter in the mail
addressed to me letting me know I won the grand prize.
I was excited and gave it to my parents. In
(27:28):
the end, my parents told me I couldn't miss that
much school, So my mom and dad went on the
trip and I went to school. There was a picture
on my fridge forever of them at the tournament, and
it tormented me every day. Love your Show. Wendy Andres
from Blanco Texas Rights. When I was about ten. In
(27:48):
nineteen seventy nine, I entered the little Miss DCC contest
by right Dallas Cowboys cheerleader. Apparently he says in the
other one by writing a little paragraph and dropping it
in the box at Sears in Fort Worth. A few
years later, I received a letter. Sorry. A few weeks later,
I received a letter saying I had been picked. Part
of the prize was getting to go to a party
(28:10):
at Texas Stadium with all of the Cowboys cheerleaders. Pretty
sure that was one of the very few days my
dad was glad to have a daughter. You know that
guy whose parents went to the US Open without him
and how aggravated that made him. One day, We're going
to do a show on people who were still butt
(28:33):
hurt years later from something somebody did to them years ago.
John Wright Zar We entered a contest years ago, and
my son got to be on the field for the
first Texans game for the coin toss. We got the
VIP treatment and my son got a game ball. Sorry,
I forgot the year, but it was the very first
game for the Texans in Houston. Have a great day,
(28:56):
Joshua writes my winning story. My name is Joshua Hayworth.
When I was just starting my window cleaning company, the
company from whom I ordered all my supplies was having
one of those place in order and you're entered to
win contests for a new window cleaning stack ladder set.
(29:16):
It's like a sixteen hundred dollars ladder set for working
on interior windows in type places where you can't get
an extension ladder into. I was super low on cash
and really needed that ladder. I needed a couple other
small items like a squeegee, rubber and soap, so I
placed my order for fifty two dollars. I got a
(29:38):
call from the company on Monday saying, you won. It's
not a huge prize, but it was huge to me.
Have a great morning and a merry christ. That's a
nice story. I got that Lauren Lanning wrong, the woman
who was Missed Texas in two thousand and six. I
went to the Facebook and the Firstlauren Lanning I found
(30:01):
was a very cute blonde woman, and I just assumed
that was her. But then I realized Lauren Lanning had
sent a picture of herself in two thousand and six
as Miss Texas two thousand and six, and she had
dark hair. There's no chance she went from that darker
hair as Miss Texas to blonde later. That just wouldn't happen, right,
So I went and looked, and now she's Lauren Lanning
(30:22):
Jeruskeebuska or something, some Polish guy or something the last name.
But she's still a very pretty grudge. I want to
make that point. In the late sixties, twenty thousand SNH
green stamps from a contest held at this grocery chain
here in Houston. My parents allowed me to redeem some
of the points for a deluxe Monopoly game lots of
(30:44):
licking and sticking. My son won a twenty thousand dollars
college scholarship in the CCA Star State of Texas Anglers
Rodeo contest, held annually from Memorial Day to Labor Day,
by catching the upper post speckled trout first place eight pound,
(31:04):
four ounce in their Star Kids division. Well, that's interesting,
that's a win. I'll count that as a win. Ramon, Lauren,
what did you win?
Speaker 4 (31:16):
Well, you were just talking about that.
Speaker 7 (31:20):
Was me.
Speaker 4 (31:21):

Speaker 1 (31:26):
Yeah, it's something called right, It is Polish.
Speaker 4 (31:28):
It is Polish, Yes, sir, so, yeah, I won this
Texas USA two thousand and six.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
Your daughter looks just like you, and your son looks
just like your husband. And then there's a little bit by. Hey,
what breed is that dog. That's a beautiful dog.
Speaker 4 (31:48):
Oh he's my heart other than my son, but a
King Charles Spaniel.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
Oh yeah, I have three of them he has. Yeah,
he has the best set of eyes on a dog
have ever. Those things are so expressive. What a great picture.
Speaker 4 (32:04):
And well that's probably how he gets a lot of
our table food.
Speaker 1 (32:08):
Probably is u. And that's a little girl. Is that
a little girl? That's your it is?
Speaker 4 (32:13):
Yes, that's that's Lilian. She was named after my husband's
mother that passed away when he was a teenager, so
we honored her.
Speaker 1 (32:21):
Well, my problem is now you don't have school, you
don't have perfect symmetry in your family. You got one
boy and one girl. Then you go that was an
oopsie baby, wasn't it.
Speaker 4 (32:32):
No, she was three years of IVS. She was fully planned.
Speaker 1 (32:35):
Oh y'all want that? What does Bubba do? He he
was like a big fellow.

He is he is a almost going to be a
senior at the Woodlands High School. But he plays varsity
football for the Woodland High School.
