Latest / Chuck Douglas / Daylight Savings Times and The Philly Mayor mishap
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: I thought the Internet was progressing, and it's going backwards
- 0:04Speaker 1: those of you that have been around since the old
- 0:05Speaker 1: dial up modem days. By the way, what was that
- 0:09Speaker 1: last night on ABC Network? It was like a Hallmark
- 0:12Speaker 1: movie or something. The Internet cafe. You had to put
- 0:15Speaker 1: dimes in. It was like an Apple two E computer
- 0:18Speaker 1: and the woman put her dimes in to get on
- 0:21Speaker 1: the Internet and she didn't understand what the fifty six
- 0:24Speaker 1: K modems sound was. But dating all the way back
- 0:27Speaker 1: to those times, we had installed pop up blockers to
- 0:33Speaker 1: keep having it from having, you know, ads popping up
- 0:37Speaker 1: over what you're trying to read or look at or whatever.
- 0:41Speaker 1: And for the longest time, it seemed as though we
- 0:44Speaker 1: had rid ourselves of the pop ups. Maybe it's just
- 0:49Speaker 1: my experience, Maybe it's just the sources I'm trying to
- 0:51Speaker 1: read stories on hers. I don't know, But man, the
- 0:54Speaker 1: pop ups are getting rampant again in my world. Are
- 0:57Speaker 1: you getting a lot of them on your your daily
- 1:00Speaker 1: lawnmower part searches and so forth? No?
- 1:03Speaker 2: But what are you getting them on a home computer
- 1:05Speaker 2: or I'm getting them right now on your phone. I'm
- 1:08Speaker 2: not right now on the iHeartMedia power of computer in here,
- 1:13Speaker 2: but it just seems like so many places now you
- 1:16Speaker 2: you start reading, all of a sudden, boom, there's an ad.
- 1:18Speaker 2: You have to click out of the ad, and you
- 1:21Speaker 2: we we got rid of that, and broadband came along.
- 1:25Speaker 1: We didn't have to worry about this stuff anymore. And
- 1:27Speaker 1: suddenly it just seems like it's a way of life
- 1:29Speaker 1: for the Internet again to have these blasted, uh blasted
- 1:32Speaker 1: pop up things all over the place. And frankly, it's
- 1:34Speaker 1: getting a little a little annoying.
- 1:36Speaker 2: I think before they would be like pop up ads,
- 1:39Speaker 2: but if you clicked on it your computer, it was
- 1:41Speaker 2: just going to get a virus. Well yeah, just now
- 1:43Speaker 2: there some of them may be that, but they're highly annoying.
- 1:48Speaker 3: I don't think they're exactly the same thing there there.
- 1:51Speaker 1: You know, there were some some regular ads back then too,
- 1:53Speaker 1: but yeah, there were viruses in them, and uh, they
- 1:56Speaker 1: usually you know, had some enticing giving you money or
- 2:00Speaker 1: you know, naked people or I didn't whatever, And yeah,
- 2:04Speaker 1: I mean it was tough to get you to click.
- 2:06Speaker 1: And in the advent of the Internet, suddenly people saw, oh,
- 2:10Speaker 1: Internet porn is all over the place. Well that's because
- 2:13Speaker 1: it was so it was suddenly so easy. You no
- 2:18Speaker 1: longer had to go into the store and ask for
- 2:21Speaker 1: one of those magazines behind the brown thing at the
- 2:24Speaker 1: cash register. You know what I mean. I never did it,
- 2:27Speaker 1: but I'm saying that they used to have them, like
- 2:29Speaker 1: what Playboy and Penthouse and all that, and they had
- 2:32Speaker 1: those like fake paneling things up where you couldn't see
- 2:35Speaker 1: the cover of the magazine.
- 2:36Speaker 3: I remembering movies and they had that back room.
- 2:40Speaker 1: See I never I never rented a back room movie.
- 2:43Speaker 2: But you could see guys walk in there and out
- 2:45Speaker 2: and they had like their hat pulled down and glasses on.
- 2:48Speaker 3: I'm like, dude, they're gonna know it's you. I mean,
- 2:51Speaker 3: you have to doctor.
- 2:52Speaker 1: Well, be good to see you here. Yeah, Judge, you'll
- 2:54Speaker 1: thank you. Yeah. I know. I've never been into that
- 2:57Speaker 1: kind of stuff. I've been very open. I own one
- 2:59Speaker 1: Playboy magazine and it's just because it was the Marilyn
- 3:01Speaker 1: Monroe edition as a collector's item. My body, that's it.
- 3:05Speaker 1: And I've never been into that kind of stuff. But
- 3:08Speaker 1: you used to have to go to the store and
- 3:10Speaker 1: go up to the cash register and ask for it.
- 3:14Speaker 1: And I can imagine that's particularly embarrassing to somebody. You know,
- 3:17Speaker 1: some male goes up there and wants a magazine and
- 3:22Speaker 1: he's got to ask the woman working the cash register
- 3:25Speaker 1: to get you know. Then suddenly there was this Internet
- 3:28Speaker 1: thing and you could ww or your way to whatever
- 3:32Speaker 1: you were looking for. And then they say, well, it's
- 3:35Speaker 1: amazing how it picked up and internet pornography became Well,
- 3:40Speaker 1: there you go. You didn't have to go through anybody anymore. So, yes,
- 3:44Speaker 1: of course it did. That's got nothing to do with
- 3:47Speaker 1: what it is. It's got to do with what we are. Well,
- 3:50Speaker 1: I'm thinking about the internet. I'm also tired of headlines.
- 3:55Speaker 1: This is something they're getting very deceptive lately to get
- 3:57Speaker 1: you again to read. These are like legitimate news sources.
- 4:04Speaker 1: They're not fly by night. They this Terry Bradshaw made
- 4:08Speaker 1: to look foolish after unexpected Super Bowl jive. I'm like,
- 4:11Speaker 1: really what happened? And it's nothing right. And then there
- 4:15Speaker 1: was one about Bradshaw straight hand and Gronkowski silenced by
- 4:19Speaker 1: Fox Sports they had a microphone problem. Yeah, that's I mean,
- 4:25Speaker 1: that's even legitimate news sources are now clickbaiting you. And
- 4:30Speaker 1: the only reason I was looking is just to see,
- 4:32Speaker 1: you know, what people are saying at this point about
- 4:34Speaker 1: the uh, there's no possible way to lose U Kansas
- 4:38Speaker 1: City Chiefs. Seriously, I think right now, if there was
- 4:41Speaker 1: a competition the NFL conducted the competition between me and
- 4:45Speaker 1: Patrick Mahomes to see who was the best, Chuck Mahomes
- 4:48Speaker 1: would win, that the call would just go. In fact,
- 4:51Speaker 1: are they have they already called the Super Bowl for
- 4:53Speaker 1: the Chiefs because that's just that's the season they've had,
- 4:57Speaker 1: which means suddenly I'm I'm an Eagles fan just just
- 5:01Speaker 1: for the Super Bowl and no more.
- 5:03Speaker 3: I'm going with the chief.
- 5:04Speaker 1: Are you going with the Chiefs? Because I've actually I
- 5:06Speaker 1: hired somebody. I hired a professional cheerleader stand in front
- 5:09Speaker 1: of my house on Super Bowl Sunday. That's going to
- 5:11Speaker 1: handle this for me? Is you have her? You have
- 5:13Speaker 1: her in there. Let me have to well, listen, we've
- 5:16Speaker 1: got to do this.
- 5:17Speaker 3: Let me hear you all saying, oh.
- 5:25Speaker 1: That's that's not Eagles, that's Ellie ellisis l that's the
- 5:30Speaker 1: mayor of Philadelphia can't spell Eagles. I'm sorry, you know
- 5:39Speaker 1: if you double consonant something, or or you oh e
- 5:45Speaker 1: at the end of it, I can forgive that but
- 5:48Speaker 1: that didn't even remotely come close to the word eagle
- 5:54Speaker 1: E L S E S E what what And then
- 6:00Speaker 1: had the nerve at the end of yell eagles like
- 6:03Speaker 1: she's spelled.
- 6:04Speaker 2: Really, I saw somebody in Philadelphia get custom cupcakes and
- 6:07Speaker 2: each of them were like E LG like spelled it.
- 6:12Speaker 1: And apparently the T shirts and hats and stuff are
- 6:14Speaker 1: out there now. Somebody's making lots of money off of
- 6:17Speaker 1: the ellis the Philadelphia Eli's stuff. Because the mayor cannot
- 6:23Speaker 1: spell eagles, the mayor should come out and go look.
- 6:27Speaker 3: I was excited, and I just had a brain that's.
- 6:31Speaker 1: Really no, that's not a brain malfunction, though, how hard
- 6:36Speaker 1: is it? It's five little letters E A G L
- 6:40Speaker 1: E eagle. Nobody should have to If you're having a
- 6:44Speaker 1: really bad day, got some bad news at work, you
- 6:48Speaker 1: got a headache, have a little trouble digesting lunch, fingernails
- 6:53Speaker 1: is dirty, feet's kind of stinky, it doesn't matter. You
- 6:55Speaker 1: should still know how to spell eagle, especially if you're
- 6:59Speaker 1: the mayor of philadel.
- 7:00Speaker 3: Well, she spelled it, just not correct.
- 7:02Speaker 1: She spelled it. Yes, you're if you're Chinese and dyslexic
- 7:06Speaker 1: at the same time, maybe that spelled eagles to you,
- 7:09Speaker 1: but it didn't to the rest of the world. Man.
- 7:11Speaker 1: That was just that was a messed up situation. And
- 7:14Speaker 1: she h. You know, she made fun of herself. Later.
- 7:18Speaker 1: I saw her at church or something doing a campaign
- 7:21Speaker 1: thing and she was up in the pulpit making fun
- 7:23Speaker 1: of herself. So bless her little hard for that, But wow,
- 7:27Speaker 1: I would never Uh.
- 7:29Speaker 2: I don't know if it's the police chief of Philadelphia
- 7:31Speaker 2: or who it is. He's standing there, she's spelling it
- 7:34Speaker 2: out and he's like, uh, it looks right away robbery.
- 7:38Speaker 3: He's not going to be part of that champ.
- 7:40Speaker 1: We have seen all the concentration has been on, you know,
- 7:43Speaker 1: Trump and Washington and so forth. We've seen some local
- 7:45Speaker 1: officials out of the tragedy down in New Orleans. The
- 7:48Speaker 1: it's kind of quieted down now. They're not talking about it.
- 7:51Speaker 1: Nobody's paying attention to it. It talk about by the wayside.
- 7:53Speaker 1: But the police chief in Philadelphia or in New Orleans,
- 7:57Speaker 1: what's her name? Do you remember her name?
- 8:01Speaker 3: Anna Kirkpatrick?
- 8:03Speaker 1: Is that it?
- 8:04Speaker 3: Am I wrong?
- 8:04Speaker 1: I don't know. I can't remember her name. Check the encyclopedia,
- 8:09Speaker 1: go back to the eighteen seventy two volume of the Encyclopedia,
- 8:13Speaker 1: and see if you can look her up, because this woman.
- 8:17Speaker 3: Yeah, that's her.
- 8:18Speaker 1: She yeah, as do you have any idea how old
- 8:21Speaker 1: she is? I'm I'm not making fun. I'm observing. She
- 8:25Speaker 1: looked like some eighty five year old woman.
- 8:28Speaker 3: Born in fifty nine.
- 8:29Speaker 1: I can't do math fifty nine. My god, she's not
- 8:32Speaker 1: holding that well. She's only six years older than me.
- 8:37Speaker 1: She looks she looks restomy.
- 8:40Speaker 3: So that would make her about what eighty six?
- 8:42Speaker 1: Shut up, man, like sixty five. That's crazy. She looks old.
- 8:50Speaker 1: But all the local stuff I love because they, you know,
- 8:54Speaker 1: they don't get much attention unless something big happens and
- 8:57Speaker 1: they make the national news or they or they can't
- 8:59Speaker 1: spell eagle, and I had both of those. In the
- 9:03Speaker 1: last week, I talked about the Internet, the Universal Translator
- 9:07Speaker 1: and the fact that we need that because some of
- 9:11Speaker 1: you people, and you know who you are, you will
- 9:13Speaker 1: take and I stay on the social media on the
- 9:16Speaker 1: Facebook and the Twitter and the Instagram and just stay
- 9:18Speaker 1: in touch with you because if it were for my
- 9:20Speaker 1: time in here with Mark, you and I would get
- 9:22Speaker 1: one hour together four days a week. So that's my
- 9:24Speaker 1: way of staying in touch with you. And I put
- 9:29Speaker 1: something out there about sunshine. Was it yesterday or Saturday
- 9:34Speaker 1: at five forty pm? Still had daylight? And it was
- 9:37Speaker 1: you know, you take your wins where you can get them.
- 9:40Speaker 1: And somebody in the commenting portion of that post on
- 9:45Speaker 1: my Facebook page determined somehow, some way that I was
- 9:50Speaker 1: saying something favorable about the concept of daylight deception time,
- 9:55Speaker 1: which I am not where what a month and a half?
- 9:59Speaker 1: When is at March eleventh or something like that when
- 10:01Speaker 1: we start that foolishness again? Right?
- 10:04Speaker 3: Yeah, But what how did he get that from?
- 10:06Speaker 1: Because I said something about, you know, the fact that
- 10:10Speaker 1: it was nice having daylight a little later in the day.
- 10:13Speaker 2: Well, that doesn't mean any That's like saying I drink pepsi,
- 10:17Speaker 2: so that means I hate coke, you know what I mean?
- 10:20Speaker 1: Like you're yeah, you're drawing your own conclusion from something
- 10:24Speaker 1: I said. And I just I need to make clear
- 10:27Speaker 1: again for anybody, because I know people half read and
- 10:30Speaker 1: have I am in no way, shape or form in
- 10:34Speaker 1: favor of daylight deception time. I'm immovable on this, completely
- 10:40Speaker 1: immovable on this. If I wanted to live my life
- 10:43Speaker 1: deceiving myself. I would set my bathroom scales back five
- 10:47Speaker 1: pounds every morning and tell myself I'm losing more weight.
- 10:52Speaker 1: I would put on a wig and compliment myself on
- 10:54Speaker 1: my hair growth. It's not real. It's this is I
- 11:02Speaker 1: don't know. I'm wondering if these same people think the
- 11:05Speaker 1: Earth is flat. This is basic the elementary school science.
- 11:12Speaker 1: The earth rotates. It also revolves around the sun. It
- 11:20Speaker 1: does so at a specific rate. It gets this much
- 11:25Speaker 1: sunlight at this point in the revolution and in the rotation,
- 11:29Speaker 1: and it gets this much sunlight in the revolution of
- 11:31Speaker 1: the rotation. It just because you tell yourself it's a
- 11:35Speaker 1: different time of day than what it actually is doesn't
- 11:40Speaker 1: make it later. It doesn't mean the sun stays out later.
- 11:44Speaker 1: It just means you moved your clock to fake yourself
- 11:48Speaker 1: out and make yourself believe that the sun is up later.
- 11:52Speaker 1: It's not. You get the same amount of daylight as
- 11:57Speaker 1: you no matter what your clock sat. You can said,
- 12:01Speaker 1: if you want to this spring sets your clock forward
- 12:04Speaker 1: four hours. The sun will stay out until one am
- 12:07Speaker 1: every day. Will that make you happy? We got sunshine
- 12:13Speaker 1: till the middle of the night. Now, sometimes that can
- 12:17Speaker 1: happen just because of the you know, reflections of the clouds.
- 12:19Speaker 1: I remember it's been twenty five years ago, waking up
- 12:23Speaker 1: in the middle of the night for something, and it
- 12:25Speaker 1: was Daggogne near daylight out there. It was odd, but
- 12:28Speaker 1: the atmospheric conditions were just right, and there was this
- 12:33Speaker 1: there was this hue of light in the sky in
- 12:37Speaker 1: the middle of the night. It was like three am,
- 12:39Speaker 1: but it looked it looked basically like very late evening.
- 12:43Speaker 1: So it can happen. It's not a regular type of thing.
- 12:49Speaker 1: But the same logic back when I was was arguing
- 12:52Speaker 1: about the minimum wage years ago, when people said that's
- 12:56Speaker 1: when they were pushing fifteen dollars an hour. It's a
- 12:58Speaker 1: living wage, a living wage of fifteen dollars an hour,
- 13:03Speaker 1: And actually russe Linball said the same thing. So I
- 13:05Speaker 1: felt like I was in good company. I said, why
- 13:08Speaker 1: not twenty why not twenty five? Why not make it
- 13:12Speaker 1: fifty make a fifty dollars an hour minimum wage? Why not?
- 13:18Speaker 1: Well then the prices will go up, Yeah, exactly, just
- 13:24Speaker 1: like they've gone up now. Allowing policy and politics to
- 13:30Speaker 1: dictate the value of an employee is silly, it's not real.
- 13:40Speaker 1: It's you faking yourself out into believing something that's not real.
- 13:45Speaker 1: So is changing your clock and telling yourself the sun
- 13:47Speaker 1: is out later than it actually is. So, as we
- 13:51Speaker 1: are about six weeks away from the beginning of daylight
- 13:56Speaker 1: deception time, I hope that I have clarified that that
- 14:00Speaker 1: there are no further questions from the class. I did
- 14:04Speaker 1: not say it. And if anybody tells you Chucks and
- 14:07Speaker 1: favored daylight saving time, they are lying and just wrong.
- 14:14Speaker 1: Twenty one past the hour, Traffic and Weather together here
- 14:16Speaker 1: for Dandie Heating and Cooling Products and Temperature Pro Columbus
- 14:19Speaker 1: Johnny Hill twenty nine minutes past six o'clock The Power
- 14:25Speaker 1: Hour in Progress, Monday edition. I'm Chuck Douglas, my number
- 14:27Speaker 1: eight two one nine eight eight six eight two one WTV.
- 14:30Speaker 1: And there's some possibilities of exposure to Ohio State students.
- 14:36Speaker 1: I got to get into that when we get back here.
- 14:37Speaker 1: From the bottom of the our news. Also another car
- 14:39Speaker 1: chase here in the city of Columbus. I'm worried that
- 14:41Speaker 1: that's going to become a norm. It's happening too much
- 14:45Speaker 1: too often here lately, and might as well bring up
- 14:48Speaker 1: to date on what's going on. Plus Zach as we
- 14:50Speaker 1: were talking there in the first segment about the old
- 14:53Speaker 1: dirty magazines, back of the cash register and the internet
- 14:56Speaker 1: pornography and so forth, somebody sent me something that sadly
- 14:58Speaker 1: reminds me of you. It is a it is a
- 15:01Speaker 1: picture here, and I have no idea who this ai image,
- 15:05Speaker 1: but some uh, some blonde woman with blue eyes and
- 15:08Speaker 1: and uh, you know, looking all saltry and all that
- 15:10Speaker 1: kind of stuff, and it looked like something appropriate for you.
- 15:13Speaker 1: It says, new sex dolls so realistic, they only want
- 15:17Speaker 1: to be friends with you.
- 15:18Speaker 3: That pretty much sums up.
- 15:20Speaker 1: That's if anybody's going to order that by mail. Zach's
- 15:23Speaker 1: gonna do it. Bottom of the hour.
- 15:27Speaker 3: How much? How much?
- 15:28Speaker 1: I don't ask, don't ask me how much they are?
- 15:31Speaker 1: I have no idea. I hope they don't really exist.
