Last night was Drumpf's first State of the Union address.

And guess what? The sun will rise at 7:58 in the morning and will set here at 5:53 in the afternoon.

This morning, I received an update from my CBS News app that three out of four people loved Combover Boy's speech. However, what they didn't say was that, well, nobody watched his speech.

As a matter of fact, roughly 45 million Americans watched Drumpf's speech. That's a sharp decline from Obama's first SOTU address in 2010, which had 48 million viewers. The only good news in all this is that Drumpf had better ratings than Obama's last SOTU, which had 31 million viewers. Then again, Obama accomplished a lot of things in his eight years. Methinks that the people who watched Drumpf's speech watched it to see what kind of damage he wants to do with the country.

I won't go into specifics since I could care less about what he said last night. I had more important things to watch, especially with the Pistons beating LeBron and the Cavs last night. All I know is that we're on a collision course to failure. Trickle Down economics didn't work for Reagan and it sure as hell won't work for Drumpf, either.

I think a test pattern has way more personality than Drumpf.

For a lot of people, they wonder when the nightmare at MSU will end.

Larry Nassar is now rotting away in jail for the rest of his life while Roger Ebert-er, I mean Lou Anna Simon is out of her job as University president. Many are infuriated that many may have known of Nassar's abuse for years; even legendary MSU alumnus Magic Johnson has called for everybody who knew to be fired.

Now, MSU has named Simon's interim replacement and sadly, it's a man that has had a bigger presidential role: governor.

Yep! It's none other than John Engler.

Engler was Michigan's <sarcasm>beloved</sarcasm> governor from 1991 to 2003. Under his aegis, our state ran up a massive deficit, schools were fucked over, especially when Kalkaska schools were forced to close early in the year due to a lack of funding and he even got the nickname "Pothole Johnny" because the roads here were so bad. Oh, and let's not forget that this Repuke who promoted family values cheated on his wife with his current one. Hell, I even shared a flight with that fat bastard years ago. And yes, I avoided contact with him.

Several of Nassar's victims, including Rachael Denhollander are all pissed over Engler being chosen as MSU's new president. On Facebook, she called Engler an "insider" and that the university needs an outsider to help fix the school's problems. I say, given his record as governor, why would they allow this fat bastard in charge is beyond me.

I guess I'll be pledging allegiance to U of M now. I hope he doesn't fuck up MSU did like he did this state.

1.29.18 Bee-otch of the Day: The Recording Academy

Bee-otch of the Day honors are awarded Monday through Thursday, Bee-otch of the Week is awarded Friday on Chuck69.com.

Occupation: the people who give you the Grammys
Last Seen: Santa Monica, CA
Bee-otched For: another crappy Grammys

For some years, people were crying "Oscars so white" because of the lack of African American nominees. Of course, with "Get Out" being nominated for Best Picture (and rightfully so, I might add), the issue is moot for this year.

Now, the issue here is "Grammys so wussy".

The band Avenged Sevenfold, who were nominated for Best Rock Song for "The Stage" decided not to attend the ceremony, held on Sunday at Madison Square Garden. The reason? It would have cost the band $150,000 for flight and hotel to an event that wasn't even televised. All the rock award ceremonies were held prior to the show, though it was streamed online.

Good thing A7X saved that $150K; they lost the award to Foo Fighters' "Run".

The big winner of the night was Bruno Mars, who won eight trophies. Critics have hailed the pop star - who was busted in 2010 for cocaine possession - for his "24K Magic" album for being highly influenced by 1990s R&B music.

Of course, the Grammys were loaded with pop, country, hip-hop and even Spanish thanks to that awful "Despicito" song that features the Canadian Devil, Justin Bieber. But sadly, the question was definitely, "where's the fucking rock?"

Sadly, rock music is turning into a bastardized style of music thanks to record labels and the assholes who own radio stations. Look at WGRD here in Grand Rapids. That station's ratings started to tumble thanks to the knuckleheads at Townsquare who think that Kansas and Boston mix in well with Metallica, Foo Fighters and KoRn (they seemed to have rebounded, though). Up in northern Michigan, rock is doing well on Rock 105 and 95-5, whose ratings went up almost a full point in the recent Nielsen ratings.

I know. Some of it's our fault. Personally, I haven't bought a record or CD in years and I haven't been to a concert in ages. Plus, I listen to Pandora when I'm driving. I prefer just one minute of commercials over commercials that last my whole 10 minute drive to and from work.

True, I commend the ceremony for their Drumpf-bashing, but there were better things to watch on TV last night. I watched the Pistons unfortunately get slaughtered by the Cavs and part of the Royal Rumble. Yes, I watched fake wrestling over shitty pop music. But hey, The Hurricane came back!

And I guess the people agreed. This year's ratings for the Grammys were the lowest ever and some are even bashing them for the lack of female winners this year. Sucks to be them.

But hey, the Super Bowl's next weekend! Go Patriots! (I'm rooting for them so Matt Patricia can come to the Lions as a Super Bowl winner!)

TRAVERSE CITY FALL 2017 NIELSENS

1.29.18

TRAVERSE CITY FALL 2018 NIELSENS
WTCM Still king, WCCW drops

In the latest Fall 2018 ratings, WTCM-FM once again dominated with a combined 13.2 between them and simulcaster 93.5 out of Boyne City. In all my years looking at ratings, WTCM has remained on top.

Other highlights:

*Stations owned by Northern Broadcast (geezer rock 97.5/98.9 WKLT, 80s/90s 94.3/92.5 The Fox and ESPN 106.7/105.5) and he-who-won't-be-mentioned here were not listed since they don't subscribe to Nielsen.

*However, Rock 105/95-5 did go up nearly a full point to a 4.8. Just imagine if Smitty was still fired from the station. As a matter of fact, he led his demo in the afternoons. Of course, the man who helped get Smitty in the first place, Tom Devitt at WKLT is not the King of Afternoon Radio like his profile on the station's website says.

*While Rock 105 gained almost a point, WCCW-FM 107.5 almost lost a full point, probably due to an aging audience, plus the fact that there's a flux of stations focused on the 70s.

*CHR Z93 did improve to a 3.2, though KHQ is still the top CHR of the north.

*104.5 Bob FM might be ripe for a format change. Then again, their signal sucks.

The next book will be out next August or so.

You know, I do love Jesus.

He healed the sick and helped the poor. He taught others to love one another and he told the wealthy to take care of the poor.

It's too bad that others use him to say to others, "he loves me, but not you."

Last week, mega tele-preacher Kenneth Copeland proclaimed that he was happy that his ministry purchased a $36 million Gulfstream V jet plane from the black Jim Varney himself, Tyler Perry. Copeland already has several other planes and even his own airport. So why does Copeland need to have planes? According to the asshole televangelist, he needs his planes and airport because he "doesn't want to rub elbows with demons". Really?!? Also, he claimed that "you can't talk to God in coach". Oh, brother.

Of course, this is the same Kenneth Copeland who lives in a $6 million mansion in the heart of Texas that he doesn't pay a dime in taxes on. Plus, let's not forget that there was a woman who died from cancer because she refused treatment. Why? Because Kenneth's plastic surgery-mess of a wife, Gloria told his viewers to give to the ministry instead of paying for life-saving treatment. REALLY?!?

You know, I worked for a "Christian" boss for a decade who paid me shit wages and got me to the point where I was having a hard time to make ends meet. With a mother who lives 1,500 miles away in Arizona, I couldn't afford EVEN A CHEAP TICKET on a plane. Yet, we have assholes like Copeland who now get to fly on a $36 million plane, all paid for by the sheeple that he brainwashes on his daily program.

And then there's Jonathan Cain, the keyboardist for one of the shittiest rock bands of all time, Journey. Last week, he and his wife, Trump advisor and televangelist Paula Cain paid a visit to good 'ol Jim Bakker to perform a little song that he co-wrote in 1981. A song that in my mind is up there with "Carry On Wayward Son" and anything Styx has done that's not "Mr. Roboto". A song called "Don't Stop Believin'".

On the show, Cain talked about the origin of the annoying tune, claiming that it was a Christian song about not giving up. He continued on by playing the overplayed heap of shit on the piano with Bakker, his wife and Cain's thrice-married wife looking on. Thanks, Jonathan! Now I hate that song even more since you played it in front of a convicted felon who stole MILLIONS from his followers and is doing it all over again. Anything that Cannibal Corpse has ever done is far-more Christian than that flaming pile of wuss rock bullshit.

Last, but not least, there's a bitch I met online last week. She seemed to be nice and Christian and she wanted to come over to my place to make burritos. Guess what! SHE NEVER CAME. She was supposed to come over a week ago yesterday but she ended up lying to me. What's funny is that she's into country and Christian music, goes to a big megachurch in Hudsonville, west of Grand Rapids and strangely enough, she sells dildos on the side. Go figure.

The point is, it pisses me off that people love to associate Jesus with being a right-winged assclown when in real life, he was probably the most-liberal person ever. Jesus never flew jet planes. Jesus was virtually homeless. Jesus never begged for money. Jesus was never a lying cunt who listens to child molester music. Jesus was a man for us and he still works. Case in point: today, I just learned that my aunt, stricken with brain cancer, was told by her doctor that her cancer is improving. She still has a long road ahead, but I'm happy that God is working for the right people. Now, I'm hoping that in the near future, she can go home to Grand Rapids and be close to her family.

The moral of the story is that you don't have to be a fake to love God.

Name: Rick Snyder
Age: 59

Bee-otched For: reminding us why he's the fourth-most unpopular governor in America

---
Last night, I watched good 'ol Detroit Red Wing hockey.

Sadly. they lost to the Flyers 3-2 and their record is now a disappointing 19-20-8 on the season, at least they're not as bad at losing than the idiot governor of the great state of Michigan, Rick Snyder.

And now, his theme music, because he's just like Mr. Rogers, only more sinister according to Darren Gibson:

Last night, Snyder did his last State of the State address where he proclaimed that because of him, Michigan was on the rebound. He held up two issues of the Wall Street Journal: one from before his governorship talking about Michigan's struggles and another talking about Michigan's rebirth. Oh, really? REBIRTH? Yep, ya gotta love an asshole who forced Michigan into being a Right-to-Work-for less state over protecting workers and unions. This coming from somebody who worked 10 years without a raise and had to work for a Jebus freak who forced his workers into working 60 hours a week for shit pay while he went on vacations every two months.

Of course, this is pRick Snyder we're talking about, the man who ran Gateway Computers into the ground and did the same thing to Michigan. Yet, he claimed victory for Michigan's overall job growth, though it was Obama working with ex-gov Jennifer Granholm who started Michigan's rebirth. The real reason for Michigan's death in the 2000s was because GM was making crap like the Hummer while Toyota was building efficient cars in right-to-work states where people are getting paid about 1/4 of what union workers make. The truth is, Obama's fixing of the economy is what saved Michigan, not a man who drags business down under.

Let's remember that this is the save pRick Snyder who hired "Emergency Managers" to take over cities that he saw as "failures" - mainly towns with high African-American populations - and fucked them all up, especially with what he did in Flint. Today, that town is slowly getting clean, drinkable water back after forcing that town's residents to drink either pricey bottled water or lead-tainted water that leads to mental issues and other defects.

Oh, and speaking of water, I love the fact that we have four of the five Great Lakes surrounding our great state while Nestle is paying our state just $200 per year to sell it under their Pure Life umbrella for BILLIONS per year. Even their fucking CEO has said that nobody has the right to clean drinking water! Now, they're causing towns like Evert to have their residents to have low water pressure because Nestle is sucking it all up.

What Nestle's doing, plus the impending disaster under the Straits of Mackinac known as Line 5 are all our worries. But in the eyes of the Nerd, he thinks it's all a job killer. Today, Larry Nasser was found guilty for sexually assaulting over 150 young girls and the judge sentenced him to virtually life in prison. If you think about it, what Snyder is doing is a trillion times worse. Eventually, the lead-tainted water will cause the young people of Flint to get mentally retarded and maybe even die. But because there's an (R) after his name, Snyder might be a free man for the rest of his life.

All I can say is that our state is still under siege and getting another Repuke in charge later this year will not make things better.

Last Seen: New York City
Bee-otched For: FINALLY hanging up his mic

Well, it was too many years too late.

After 50 years on the radio, Don Imus has finally announced that he's retiring. He was to retire at the end of the year, but because his company, Cumulus is under Chapter 11 bankruptcy, he and other Cumulus jocks have had their contracts cut short due to their financial struggles. Then again, Imus's ratings aren't anything special since the majority of his listeners are probably old enough to die.

Bear in mind too that the I-Man has emphysema all caused by years of smoking and drug abuse.

On this morning's Howard Stern Show, Howard admitted that he was kinda sad that Imus is retiring, though the two haven't seen eye-to-eye. Years ago, Stern admitted that he was the innovative one at WNB - er, WNNNNNNNNNNNNNNBC and Imus would sit there and watched what he did. Eventually, Imus would rip off his material because his true talent was being in the bathroom snorting up coke while his engineer would play 16 records per hour. On the air, Imus would be so high that all he could do were duck noises.

Of course, Imus moved over to WFAN when they took over AM 66 in 1988 when WNBC signed off. Not long afterward, his show was simulcast on MSNBC for many years. However, the plug was pulled in 2007 when he referred to the Rutgers Women's Basketball team as "nappy headed hoes". He was booted off of WFAN and MSNBC. Eventually, he returned to radio on Citadel Radio Networks - since bought out by Cumulus - and WABC Radio. On the TV side, his show aired on RFD-TV, a rural cable network that mostly aired livestock auctions and old episodes of Pop Goes the Country.

Here in Michigan, Imus currently doesn't have any affiliates. His last station was a small station near Manistee that's been on and off the air multiple times over the years. Two other stations in northern Michigan - Cadillac's WATT 1240 and Charlevoix's WMKT 1270 - both aired the show in the early 00s but was canceled because Imus revealed that owner Trish MacDonald-Garber was paying him jack squat. Then again, neither station gets good ratings. I know at least three stations carried him in Detroit: WXYT 1270 and the old Star 97.1 in the 1990s (which moved Imus to 1270 to make way for Stern and is now 97.1 The Ticket) and afterward, Chaldean-owned 1460 WPON, which has since fallen silent. As for Grand Rapids, I'm not sure if his show was ever carried here. If so, it didn't last long.

Now that Imus will be gone, he can spend more time on his cancer ranch, where he enslaves children into working so he won't have to pay a dime in taxes.

In the meantime, enjoy this classic from Fred Norris.

Bee-otched For: treating America like he treated his failed businesses

---
Well, the turmoil is over...

....For now.

Today, the House and Senate voted to reopen the government for another three weeks as they try to create a budget and keep dreamers here in America. However, many are pissed that even the Democrats passed the bill since it will allow ICE agents to make unexpected knocks on the doors of illegals here in America.

Of course, a lot of the fault falls on the lap of good 'ol Drumpf, who allowed this monstrosity to happen in the first place. Hey, he's had multiple failed businesses and now, he's failing the nation.

It's been 367 days since he took the oath (or in his case, oaf) of office and so far, he's fucked up the tax code and now, he's beginning to how how ungodly he really is by telling illegals to fuck off. And yet, he's the savior of the country. The sad thing is that yes, the Dow is way up from last year, but then again, we're still under Obama's aegis in that respect as now, the economy is showing signs of declining. For instance, less people found new jobs last month and gas prices are on the rise. And I don't think drilling holes in the ground for coal will be of help.

The point is, Drumpf is running America like a business and We the People will get hurt in the end. Give the poor $100 and they will spend it fast. Give a rich man $100 and he'll horde it. Under the Drumpf tax plan, that will be reality. 2008 will be coming back by 2020.

The people have spoken. Thousands took the streets on Saturday to protest his presidency and rightfully so. A year into being the Klutz in Chief, his approval rating is at 38% while Obama's was at 58%. Of course, we're the ones footing the bill for his golf trips at Mar-a-Lago and so on.

Thankfully, his wake up call will come in November.

By now, many of you have heard about the two monsters known as David and Louise Turpin who raised their children by chaining them to their bedrooms and only allowing them to one meal per day.

The two are now in jail with bond being held at $9 million each after their 17-year-old daughter found a way out of their compound and called 911. The police found out that the children were living in pure squalor, soaking in urine and malnourished. They were only allowed one shower per year and their parents would often eat cakes and pies while they were starving to death in their bedrooms.

When the police came, the 13 siblings - aged 2 to 29 - didn't even know what a policeman was. The 29-year-old only weighed 87 lbs.

You know, I wonder why sometimes, people who shouldn't have kids, have kids. They brought these people into the world and treated them worse than shit. God bless the 17-year-old who found the courage to call 911 and escaping from these assholes' torture. What's more sad is that one day, I'd like to have kids and if I did, I would give them the best love any father could give them. It's too bad that the women of west Michigan are too cunty for a nice guy like me. But instead, children were born to these two monsters and sadly, the kids will pay for their actions.

I hope there's no god for these two.

This morning when I woke up, the memes were-a-blastin' on Facebook.

The memes were directed at the fact that yesterday, Drumpf's doctor claimed that he was in good health and at his ideal weight. According to the doc, his height was 6'3" and 239 lbs. However, the memes I saw compared Drumpf to a football player and the football player was definitely in better shape than the president. OK, so Drumpf golfs a lot. However, 1) a lot of golfers are fat (my late grandpa was a good example) and 2) I know of two radio personalities - albeit not overweight - that died from heart attacks on the links.

But of course, there's the uprising Stormy Daniels scandal. She claimed that Drumpf's lawyer paid her $130,000 to keep quiet on the tryst and that the 2006 session was "generic" and was just four months after his son Barron was born. So apparently, Drumpf cheated on his own wife.

Ya know, when Clinton cheated on his wife and lied about it, he was impeached. I do hope to God that when the Dems win the House and Senate this fall, this will be priority one for them to get this pussy-grabbing, foreigner-bashing, middle class-shaming prickwad out of office. It's a shame how the right-winged moralist Bible-thumpers will defend him, even for being the asshole he is.

Of course, that's only if the Dems aren't Republican Lite this time around.

Today, we were all handed some sad, depressing news.

Drumpf - at least according to his doctor - is in good health.

Despite the fact that sometimes his slurs his speech and jumps on his sentences, the 71-year-old is doing well according to his doctor today during a press conference. But then again, you can have perfect blood pressure plus have a low BMI and still croak from a massive myocardial infarction.

But then again, you can have the direct opposite and live past 90.

Of course, this comes days after our beloved president was nice enough during a meeting to call not-so-privileged countries "shitholes", causing NBC and even SNL to use that term. Even though Drumpf has denied using that term, others are saying that he's simply covering his ass. Now, with a government shutdown coming, many immigrants are scared that they're being forced to move elsewhere if DACA isn't passed. And they might end up back in those countries that Drumpf trashed.

But there is some good news from all this: Steve Bannon, fresh from his departure from Brietbart, is being subpoenaed by Robert Muller. This could lead Drumpf into more hot water that might lead into impeachment or even better, jail.

That's if he doesn't die in office first.

---
The 1990s sure are over.

In only the past few years, we've lost Scott Weiland, Chester Bennington, Chris Cornell and Tom Petty, just to name a few.

Now, we can add Dolores O'Riordan to the list.

In 1990, a young woman joined a small, unknown Irish band called The Cranberry Saw Us. The band had lost their male lead singer, so they decided on a female. Well, it turned out to be a good move on their part.

Shortly after Delores joined the group, comprising of brothers Noel and Mike Hogan and Fergal Lawler, The band was renamed The Cranberries and were signed to Island Records. Their first album, "Everybody Else Is Doing It, So Why Can't We?" sold over five million copies in America alone and its first single, "Linger" became a gen-x love anthem. Soon, the band scored many other big hits, from the poppy ("Dreams" and "Free To Decide") to the hard-rocking "Zombie", a song inspired by two young boys that were killed during the IRA bombings in 1993 in England. Their songs were mostly written by Dolores and were standards on both pop and rock stations in the 1990s.

By the beginning of the 2000s, The Cranberries became more of an afterthought and in 2003, broke up. Dolores recorded two solo albums, but in 2009, the band reformed. The band recorded one studio album, "Roses" in 2012 and "Something Else" just last year, which contained re-worked acoustic covers of their classics with a live orchestra.

In recent years, Dolores had been dealing with bipolar disorder and was arrested for air rage in 2014. In 2013, Dolores tried to commit suicide after suffering a breakdown. She had been abused as a child and was also going through a divorce from her husband of 20 years. She had been dealing with health issues in the past few years that have caused the band to cancel dates. This morning, her body was found in a London hotel room. She was only 46. So far, they are calling her death mysterious.

The untimely death of Dolores O'Riordan has shocked the world. Growing up with her music, I'm saddened by her too-soon passing. My thoughts are with her family, especially her three children. If her death was drug-related, I hope and pray we can all learn from it and move on in a positive manner. Mental illness is something that must be addressed and worked on.

Thankfully, the music will live on forever.

Yesterday, the Fall 2017 Nielsen radio ratings book was released and there were a few surprises here and there.

B93 retained the lead, followed by WOOD-AM/FM, WSNX (I guess people love Mojo after all), Star 105.7 (gotta love the Christmas boost) and WGRD, whose ratings went up despite the addition of butt rock into their playlist.

However, there's no surprise that dead last in the latest ratings among FM stations is good 'ol WBBL 107.3, which finished with a 1.7 in 15th place. Of course, this station is the home of good 'ol "Huge" Bill Simonson, who has been on this station for years. Yet, the asshole homer has no real listeners except for the Devos family and Tommy Brann.

What might be more laughable is the fact that WBBL isn't the lowest-rated radio station in west Michigan. Their sister station, WJRW 1340 is at a .5 in the ratings. Even more, Holland's WHTC 1450 has a .8, good for a .8.

What might be more ironic is that guess who WHTC also carries? Yep, the fat one.

The funny thing is that WBBL and WJRW's parent, Cumulus Media is going through Chapter 11 bankruptcy and their stock price is at six fucking cents per share. They also own WLAV, 105.3 Hot FM and 94.5 Nash FM here in GR. When The Cloud bought their GR stations from Citadel, I was hoping for good positive change. Instead, it's almost the same 'ol, same 'ol.

Folks, there's a reason why Cumulus is in bankruptcy: THEY HAVEN'T LEARNED FROM CITADEL'S MISTAKES. Here in Grand Rapids, they fucked up and killed WKLQ, they blew up a popular oldies station and created a country station that has failed to dethrone B93 and they moved WBBL to an FM signal while the talk station that replaced it on the AM band has been a colossal failure.

For Cumulus, the question is, now what? Why is Hot FM still WSNX's bitch? Why has Nash FM been a bomb in GR? Why is the useless Bill Simonson still on the air, probably proclaiming that the Lions will win the Super Bowl this year? This is why Cumulus is in the poor house.

All I'll say is that when Rome burns, I'll be listening to Pandora.

1.10.18 Bee-otch of the Day: Vermilion Parish School District

BECOME AN AFFILIATE OF T-SHIRT HELL AND MAKE SOME MONEY!

Bee-otch of the Day honors are awarded Monday through Thursday, Bee-otch of the Week is awarded Friday on Chuck69.com.

-------

Name: Vermilion Parish School District
Age: ??
Occupation: school system
Last Seen: Abbeville, LA
Bee-otched For: having the worst superintendant in America

---
And you thought that Seymour Skinner had a nasty boss in Super Nintendo Chalmers.

On Sunday, a school board meeting was held in Abbeville, LA, pop. 12,000. Teacher Deyshia Hargrave stood up to voice her disgust regarding superintendant Jerome Puyau receiving a $38,000 pay raise despite most teachers in the Vermilion Parish school district not getting a raise in ten years, plus the fact that class sizes in the district had grown from 21 to 29 per class.

Puyau had been making $110,000 per year since 2012. Originally, the school board was deadlocked 4-4 in renewing his contract, but one of the board members died and was replaced with somebody who was in favor of renewing his contract.

While voicing her disgust, a police officer asked her to leave the building. She did, but as she was being escorted, the cop pushed her to the ground and slapped handcuffs on her. Needless to say, the community - and now the world - is pulling for Hargrave, who was the district's Teacher of the Year in 2016.

You know, it's sad when I see people get rewarded for failure. If class sizes in this district kept growing, they should do something, like remodel schools or build new ones. Personally, if my kid went to this district, I would be finding a new one for it. I want my kid's teachers to be well-paid and if the goddamned superintendant is overpaid, the district needs to kick him out.

Thankfully, Hargrave won't face any charges, but now, people are angry over what's going on in Vermilion Parish and they need to be. This echoes what's going on in inner city schools that are condemned and no kid should be taught in. Yet, many of those schools' staff are overpaid and need to be replaced.

Maybe for redemption, Ms. Hargrave oughta tar and feather Mr. Puyau.
