Team Trivia Drunk Or Sober?


Hey Friends it's your good buddy Oz. Today's topic is when your competing in team trivia is better to be drunk or sober? Yes I know this topic is ground breaking and pretty heavy stuff. Let me start off by saying that I have seen people at trivia drunk as a skunk and sober and I've been in both situations as well. If your going to be sober for team trivia I think you have a better shot at winning because you have a clear mind about everything and you probably wouldn't fall down handing in your teams answer. Also when your sober you can talk some sense into some of your drunken team mates they try so hard but in the end they are too trashed to think for themselves. Another point for being sober while doing team trivia is if you win you remember winning and can savor thee moment in your place in team trivia history yeah boy! On the other end of the spectrum is there anything wrong with being drunk at team trivia? Let's see if you pace yourself and drink and drink all the way through, I'll tell ya I commend you for your efforts because it takes someone special to be the designated drinker. Yes maybe you can't think straight or even walk and maybe you might know the answer but your team mates will veto you because your intoxicated but when you are right and they are wrong you can yell I told you so very loud so the whole bar can hear you. If at halftime of team trivia you take the special shots for your team to gain points and you have like 12 shots wow that would be ay okay with me you gotta take one for the team! What do I think of all of this? It's a close call but in the end The Oz has to lean on the side of being sober because if you win you remember it and your not hung over the next day and you don't have to send drunken text to people who think your from outer space trying to crack the code. I want to know what is your stance and why? Well until next time may the Oz always be with you so long!

The Piano Man!

Hey Friends Oz here to supply you with a great blog about, What is my favorite singer/band and what makes them so excellent? Let me start this off by stating that I am not a music guy but I do like very few singers and bands. Elton John is one of my all time favorites. The guy knows how to put on a show and his voice is so electric. Sir Elton John is a music legend and my goodness can you feel the love tonight? It doesn't get any better than Elton John and Your Song that is an absolute classic. It has been used in several films most notably Moulin Rouge. Another one of my favorite artists would have to be Barry Manilow! Yes, I know he's old but wow what a great vocalist and musician. With songs like Mandy, Copacabana, Can't smile without you and many more. Barry Manilow has appeared as a guest judge on American Idol a couple of years back and he has nothing but good feedback. Now how about some bands I only like two so I will cover each of them for ya. First off the Beach Boys are like SOOO rad dude! With songs like surfin USA, California Girls, FUN FUN FUN, Little Saint Nick, Barbara Anne and many more. With the high pitched voices and the pizazz of the 1950's the Beach Boys will always be on the top of my list. Keep on rocking the beach boys surfs up dudes and dudets! The Beatles wow a cult following all across the world. I don't think you won't find anyone who doesn't like the Beatles or at least respect them. Songs like Hey Jude, Let it be and Let's get together and so many more. I would also like to state the case for ABBA who I just discovered over the summer because of Mama Mia. They have tons of songs like Mama Mia, S.O.S, Gimmie Gimmie, Dancing Queen, Waterloo, Take A Chance On Me, The Winner Takes It all, Money Money Money and so many more. It is now time to reveal what my favorite singer/band is and why they are so excellent? When push comes to shove there is only one guy that is my number one artist and that name is none other than Billy Joel "The Piano Man"! Billy Joel has so many hits it's not even funny. Just to name a few we got The Piano Man, New York State Of Mind, Moving Out, Honesty, Big Shot, The Longest Time, Uptown Girls and so many more. All his music is full of passions and most of the songs are from his past life experiences and that's awesome. Why is he so excellent because he's the man and that's the bottom line! The Piano Man gotta love it! On a side notes I own all the greatest hits of the above topics up for discussion accept for the Beatles which that may have to change. Oz wants to know who or what is your favorite singer/band and why are they so freaking excellent? Well until next time may the Oz always be with you so long!

Animals Put Your Paws Up!

Hey friends it's Oz again are you getting tired of me yet? No, that's a great answer and it's time for another blogoramma. Today's topic is what is my favorite animal and why is it so amazing that just came from the horses mouth ha ha ha um anyways let's get started. Let's start off with the common pets cats and dogs. One would say that a cat is high maintenance and very stubborn animals and dogs can be a man's best friend and dogs can do many things. They can do tricks, hunt, swim in the lake but I wouldn't suggest the ocean because they might drown. As well as guarding the ones you love. We go from home to sea let's see what's around the bend. A Fish is quite the unique animal if you want to call it an animal. Fish don't live very long because of fisherman and other animals that like to eat them. I prefer salmon or trout yum they taste good so I guess you know that I won't be picking fish as my favorite animal. We can speak of the flamingo, a flamingo is hot pink and it stands on one leg and I don't know how they survive out in the wild. Maybe if you know you can tell me. An Ostrich can grow up to 9ft tall and runs up to 40 MPH wow that's so awesome I wish I was an ostrich so I can hide my head into the sand to avoid being noticed. Monkeys are also a great animal from what I hear they are intelligent animals but you never know. Swinging from trees all day wouldn't be so bad at all but I don't think I could handle the continuous feeding of the bananas wow not so much. This brings me to my choice of my favorite animal and why I think it's so amazing! The animal that comes to mind is the skunk and this is a very odd choice but the skunk makes a great pet if you are a bum that is because skunks smell when they spray off odor and bums just smell really bad or if you don't take showers! Skunks are black and white and I'm white so I guess that makes them ay okay! Skunks are small and filled with potent ammunition so I would say don't piss off a skunk because they are my friends! There should be a skunks zoo only for skunks. Skunks or Us that would be a totally awesome thing but it won't happen and I think that's just bogus. Anyways what is your favorite animal and why is it SOOOOO AMAZING? Well until next time may the Oz always be with you so long!

The Oz has chosen his favorite movie is Catch Me If You Can this is just a great story a true story in fact about a boy running away from home at the age of 13 or 14 scamming writing bad checks and getting away with it for 3 or 4 years with his charm and absolutely mind boggling story and the good thing about it is the real Frank Abagnale JR makes billions he created the security measures you see on checks and drivers license guys a genius loved the book lots of great stuff check them both out you won't regret it! Oz wants to know what is your favorite film and why? Until next time may the Oz always be with you so long!

Favorite food and why?


Hey friends it's Oz again here for another blog for your viewing pleasure. One of the topics up for discussion today is what is your favorite food and why? Food hm what a great word and speaking of food that always makes the tummy rumble. On a serious note, let's start off with spaghetti. Spaghetti and meatballs are a very nice food indeed it's from Italy and it's zesty and very healthy for you and the noodles are nice and long and the meatballs are really tasty too so you can't go wrong with spaghetti and meat balls. Now we move on to a more traditional American food which is hamburgers. I should be an expert in hamburgers I've had quite a few hamburgers in my day and let me tell you I haven't met a hamburger that I haven't liked. Yummy beef, onions. lettuce, pickles, cheese and mustard and the essentials. Let's move on to the pastries cake and pie. Cake and pie are very tasty but they tend to be very rich and very bad for your health but it's a good time had by all so pie and cake yummy what a wonderful treat yes sir! Finally the last food up for bids on the Oz is right is pizza. Pizza college kids and people of all shapes and sizes love pizza. I don't even know how many kinds of pizza you can order it's very convenient that is unless you ordered online and did not know what you were doing and ordered a pizza on a Sunday and you get the pizza Monday at 10pm UM YEAH MOVING ON! I have come to the conclusion that my favorite food is you guessed it PIZZA a good ole fashion pizza pie appeases Oz's appetite! What is your favorite food and why? Well until next time may the Oz always be with you so long!

Favorite Sport and Why?


Hey friends Oz is at it again this blog is for all you sports fans out there. Leah has decided to make this blog what is your favorite sport and why? Aw, so many things to say in so little time. Sports are a great thing across this great nation of ours. I wouldn't say around the world because soccer doesn't count OOOOO BURN! Leading things off is baseball America's pastime. Baseball has been around for so long it has great history and prestige and even though games average out to be two and a half hours or longer, it's fun to watch every play because you never know what may happen next or what record might be broken you may even see a very rare triple play or maybe a no hitter or even better a perfect game. One of my all time favorite baseball memories are manager blowups throwing things on the field and getting in the umpires faces and throwing bases into right field gotta love Lou Pinella! Football college or pro is definitely in the running for one of my favorite sports because there is hard hitting action from start to finish and game could last 3 hours or more. the NFL and college have real fast players with untapped talents it's mind boggling how big those guys can get. Basketball college or pro is really good. NBA has big stars who make super dynamite plays and college has great teams and when it comes to march madness it really doesn't get any better that that. Hockey is also a great sport it may not be a fun sport to watch an actual game but the fights are EPIC and bloody at times Teyaunnee would have to agree she loves hockey just for that fact. Golf is great to watch let me take that back Tiger Woods is fun to watch everyone else why bother ha ha um Tennis is good to watch oh wait no that's only Nadal and Federer! The Olympic sports swimming, gymnastics, skiing and many others are real good too. I'd pay to watch Michael Phelps swim any day that kid is intense and crazy good. Finally we come to soccer oh are we talking about sports oh my bad scratch that thought soccer isn't a real sport. It's decision time and I have come to the conclusion that my favorite sport to watch is baseball because of all the great athletic catches that are made on a daily basis and all the huge home runs that are hit and players getting hit and rushing the mound and managers arguing with the umpires it's quite the spectacle and I would have to say WWE is on the top of my list love WWE you can't beat it. It's always going to be one of my great loves go HBK the Heart Break Kid Shawn Michaels I'm a sexy boy! That brings me to this final question, What is your favorite sport and why? Do you have a favorite memory from any event you may have attended? Well until next time may the Oz always be with you so long!

Vacation Destination


Hey Friends it's Oz again back again for some more fun and excitement. This was supposed to be last nights blog but I was out late last night but anyways here we go. Today's blog is about my favorite Vacation Destination. I am sure there are several spots across this great world of ours that would be pleasing to take a nice long vacation. I will focus on a few spots then I will ultimately makes my choice for my favorite vacation destination. Let's start off on the west coast, San Fransisco is a great city with scenic views of the golden gate bridge and the bay and off in the distance you have Alcatraz not to mention there is the fisherman's wharf and china town and so much more. Staying on the west coast Las Vegas would also be a great choice for a nice vacation. In Las Vegas you have hotels a plenty and casinos everywhere you walk there is even a casino at the airport and in many stores and restaurants it's pretty insane. You can drink with open containers out in the street the weather is nice and you can see some great shows and cheap food you can't beat that. I almost got lost in Vegas but Hannah we made a good team and we made it back to the hotel. Los Angeles is a very nice destination with the walk of fame and tons of celebs all around and great weather and the list goes on about LA. How about Florida great sunny weather and they got the gators and great parties during spring break who could beat that. New York City definitely a lot a great choice with Manhattan and great food and entertainment with the Broadway shows and I am sure you will find a celebrity sooner or later. My friend Teyaunee would like to go to Hawaii for a vacation because she said it's real warm. I'd like to add that Hawaii has the ocean and the beach and I'm sure a luau would be in session as well! Now the Oz has come to his conclusion and all the above are great choices to spend a vacation but this time Oz is going down under and he has chosen Sydney Australia because of the Aussie girls and accents and of course a shrimp on the barbee and you can't forget a digery doo G'day mate! What is your favorite vacation and destination and why? Well until next may the Oz always be with you so long!
