Below is a short list of current events and random stuff that I can give a rats ass about. Listing them does not mean I care; I just want you to know… who cares?
1. Disney has cancelled plans to build a $900 million dollar campus in The Sunshine State of Florida. OMG who gives a solid crap.
2. Life Coaches. C’mon. Really?
3. Billionaire Amazon founder Jeff Bezos owns a $500 million dollar yacht. Whatever.
4. Oakland Athletics
5. Ed Sheeran
1988 – The charismatic David Lee Roth has his hit single, Just Like Paradise, sitting at #6, on the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart. Just for the Metal record, I happen to absolutely, 100%, without a micro doubt… love this song. Just Like Paradise is featured on the second full-length album from David Lee Roth, released back in 1988: Skyscraper.
As reported on the KISS Facebook page:
THIS DAY IN KISSTORY 1996:

On March 12, 1996, the KISS MTV Unplugged CD and VHS Video were released in the US. KISS MTV Unplugged was recorded August 9, 1995 at Sony Music Studios in New York City. The majority of the CD/VHS features Paul, Gene, Eric Singer and Bruce Kulick. Ace Frehley and Peter Criss join Paul and Gene for ‘2000 Man’ and ‘Beth’. All six members close out the CD/VHS with ‘Nothin’ To Lose’ and ‘Rock and Roll All Nite’. MTV originally broadcast KISS Unplugged on October 31, 1995.
Comment from Paul on Unplugged:
‘Unplugged was a chance for us to celebrate the musical history of the band by stripping, some great songs from different points in our history, down to the bare essence of what makes them great.’

‘Got To Choose’ appeared on the VHS and the Vinyl versions of KISS Unplugged but not the US CD.
On March 12th, 1962, Darryl Strawberry was born in California. Happy Birthday, Darryl Strawberry! Whoa! The legendary Darryl Strawberry won a World Series with the New York Mets back in 1986, defeating the Boston Red Sox. After playing for the Los Angeles Dodgers and San Francisco Giants, Darryl went on to become a valuable member of the New York Yankees, winning three World Series with them in 1996, 1998 and 1999.
Thanks for the fun baseball memories, Darryl! Long live Darryl Strawberry! Oh, yeah, one more thing… Darryl Strawberry is… Metal. – Stone

I AM A YANKEE FAN. I love my Yankees. Normally, I never mention sports whatsoever on Metal Odyssey, however, tonight is special. The New York Yankees are Major League Baseball’s WORLD CHAMPIONS! I am so proud of the Yankees, 27 World Series titles… wow. Holy Cow!!
CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL THE NEW YORK YANKEES AND THEIR FANS!!
HIDEKI MATSUI A.K.A. GODZILLA – UNREAL GAME! YANKEE HERO FOREVER!!
TOO MANY NEW YORK YANKEE WORLD SERIES RECORDS TO MENTION!!
GOD BLESS DEREK JETER! A REAL CAPTAIN!
DEREK JETER – 175 CAREER POST SEASON HITS. HOLY COW!
27 WORLD SERIES TITLES! HOLY COW!
ANY MOMENT… A MAGICAL MOMENT AT YANKEE STADIUM!
THANK YOU MR. STEINBRENNER FOR GIVING THE FANS SO MANY GREAT YANKEE PLAYERS OVER THE YEARS!
#1 OWNERSHIP IN MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL HISTORY – THE STEINBRENNER FAMILY!
HOW SWEEEEET IT IS TO BE A YANKEE FAN!
The Red Sox Nation could not comprehend 27 World Series titles. The Red Sox Nation can continue to groom great ball players for the Yankees… we will always take them. Thank you, Red Sox, for not resigning Johnny Damon, Roger Clemens and Wade Boggs in past years. All three of these great Yankee heroes are Yankees World Series Champions.
Hey, Steven King… repeat after me… NEW YORK YANKEES, WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS.
Hey, Ben Affleck… can you say… NEW YORK YANKEES, WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS? HUH?
Hey, Big Papi… can you say… 27 World Series Championships? I didn’t think so. Try again.
Hey, Jason Varitek… can you say… Jorge Posada has way more World Series rings?
Hey, Curt Schilling… can you say… New York Yankees, 27 World Series Titles? C’mon, try…
WHO’S YOUR DADDY! WHO’S YOUR DADDY! WHO’S YOUR DADDY! WHO’S YOUR DADDY!
THANK YOU PEDRO MARTINEZ, FOR STARTING GAME 6 OF THE 2009 WORLD SERIES! ALL OF US YANKEE FANS KNEW WE COULD COUNT ON YOU!! WHO’S YOUR DADDY?
TRIVIA TIME: HOW MANY WORLD SERIES RINGS DID TED WILLIAMS WIN? UM, “0”. ZERO.
Oh, by the way… say goodbye to the AROD curse, Red Sox Nation. Plus, as a Yankee bonus… the Yankees win their 27th “record” World Series in the first year of their brand new ballpark. Can the Red Sox Nation say – brand new ballpark? Uh, nope. All that the Red Sox Nation knows is their old, decrepit ballpark also known as the “little league field” of Major League Baseball. Fenway Park… it’s a junkyard compared to the NEW Yankee Stadium – home to the WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS.
Why have I spent so much time here bugging on the Red Sox Nation? Due to the fact that this same Red Sox Nation has been a cocky, arrogant, wide eyed bunch of band wagon fans that thinks the sun sets and rises over their aging team and junkyard, uh, I mean Fenway Park. Someone remind the three stooges up in Boston, (you know, the owners of the Red Sox), that they need to start dumping some of their AGING ballplayers if they want to even think about competing on the Major League level. Theo who? Where’s Manny? Whatever happened to Nomar? Hey Boston, can you say… GLUM NATION? Or, try this one on for size… JEALOUS NATION? Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, hee, hee, ho, ha, ha, ha. Um, ha, ha again.
NEW YORK YANKEES! WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS OF THE WORLD! #1! THE VERY BEST! 27 WORLD SERIES TITLES! HOLY COW! NEW YORK YANKEES ROCK!
