You Can't Win

Posted by Kimberly on Jan 05 2009 10:33 AM
Today, Paul gave a clue to question 3.  The clue had to do with three strikes.  I think the answer could be a turkey.  Because in bowling when you get three strikes a turkey appears.  My daughter thinks that it is a pumpkin.  Which,  she could be right because at Thanksgiving you have pumpkin pie after eating a turkey.  Just a thought.

Well my guess would be the average size of the Turkey served at Thanksgiving! :)

AND THE ANSWER IS...not what was said, but close enough???...looks like omg is out of the doghouse now to make room for branzig. Today's player said "average size of a thanksgiving turkey" and steve gave paul the "thats right" nod. But thats not right...the exact right answer is "the amount of turkey the average american eats per year". Question 4 is "what happened on june 29, 1980" i'm 90% sure thats the right date they gave...i'll have to relisten to podcast later, but pretty sure thats the right date.

Quipster is right. The question is: This began on June 29, 1980. In a seinfeld episode they said his non-vomiting streak began that day. PC more or less admitted that the answer was on this site.

Forgot to mention that he throws up in the episode, so his streak ended. Word your answers accordingly.

(Elaine's on the phone with Jerry)

JERRY: No eight years isn't such a long streak.

ELAINE: It isn't?

JERRY: No I haven't vomited in thirteen years.

ELAINE: Get out!

JERRY: Not since June 29, 1980.

ELAINE: You remember the date?

JERRY: Yes, because my previous vomit was also June 29th... 1972. That's why during the '80 vomit, I was yelling to George: "Can you believe it? I'm vomiting on June 29th again."

The Obamas go organic

In South Florida, candidate Barack Obama and wife Michelle turned to four local chefs for a "green" meal worthy of, well, a president.

By Deborah S. Hartz-Seeley

Food Editor

December 11, 2008

When Barack and Michelle Obama were in town for a campaign rally late in October, they proved they truly are just regular folk.

"They could have eaten at the Four Seasons or the Mandarin [Oriental], but they had four unknown young guys come cook for them," says Chad Cherry, 28, who with Kirk Nelson, 28, Roosevelt Desir, 26, and Andre Walker, 35, own Be Organic catering company.

Turns out the Obamas eat organic whenever they can and were happy to turn their post-speech lunch over to these chefs.

The team got involved cooking for the president-elect after doing an hors d'oeuvres party for 150 at an earlier voter registration drive. "We got asked to cook for that party and then they said, 'By the way, we can't pay you,'" they recall.

"We're young and politically involved," Cherry says. "We knew how important this election is so we figured the hors d'oeuvres were our way to contribute."

At that party, the chefs met some influential people on the Obama team, and they kept in touch. Then on Oct. 20, only 12 hours before the Obamas were to make a campaign appearance in downtown Miami's Bicentennial Park, the chefs got a call asking them to prepare a lunch for 20 VIPs.

"That's all they told us. Although they did hint 'This is something you may want to do,'" Cherry says.

The chefs filled out forms to get security clearance. "They wanted our names, driver's licenses, a pint of blood and our first born," Nelson jokes. And they were told to arrive early because their car had to be "swept for bombs."

Then they planned their menu. Of course, it would have to be "fresh, natural and from the earth," as Nelson describes their food. They are known for using ingredients that don't contain pesticides, antibiotics or hormones. And they turn to local sources whenever possible.

The quartet decided to serve their Baked Chicken With Pineapple Jerk Sauce, featuring the Jamaican flavors of Nelson's and Walker's homeland. It's a dish they've been making for about six months. They also thought they'd include a dish of prawns until they heard that one member of the party prefers salmon. They quickly switched their menu to include Baked Salmon With Coconut Creme Fraiche, which they've been making for many years. The sauce is a lovely combination of coconut milk, sour cream, jerk seasoning and a touch of herbs de Provence.

"When we cook, everything has a sauce. It's our sauces that differentiate our dishes," Cherry says. In fact, the team is selling their sauces at area green markets.

The young men thought they'd be cooking for major campaign contributors and local politicos as they prepared food in their Miami kitchen and packed it into coolers.

The chefs had been told to bring four "very nice place settings" of china and the rest could be disposable. They still had no idea who they'd be serving.

Turns out only Cherry and Nelson actually went to the park with friend and chef Mitch Alusma, 32, because Desir and Walker had other work to do.

As the chefs set up their food station in a tent behind the stage at the park, four security guards rushed in telling everyone to "get out; someplace where we can see you."

The chefs hung together surrounded by guards dressed in suits and communicating through ear pieces. With that, Barack and Michelle Obama entered the tent. They approached the young men, who were still wearing the rubber gloves they use to handle food.

"Aren't you going to take your gloves off?" Michelle asked. They each got one off just in time to shake the couple's hands.

"They treated us like equals," Nelson says. "There was no sense of elitism. They talked to everyone the same. If I hadn't already decided, that would have won my vote."

The chefs brought food to the Obamas on their tour bus and left them to eat for 15 minutes before they were swept away to another campaign appearance.

Just as the Obamas are bringing change to Washington, D.C., these chefs are encouraging people to change their lifestyles by eating at least some organic items and making more healthful meals at home.

To get you started, try one of the recipes that the group made for the Obamas. They are simple and extremely flavorful. Although the chefs make their own corn base for the Pineapple Jerk Sauce, an organic creamy corn soup works well and makes less work for the home cook.

You'll find that both the jerk sauce and the Coconut Crème Fraîche not only work over meat and seafood but also as a salad dressing over organic mixed greens with grape tomatoes and matchstick carrots. That's how they were offered to the Obamas.

"We like to educate people that you can make simple dishes at home that taste good. You don't have to run to McDonald's to get convenient food," Walker says.

And what if the Obamas ask the team to be the White House chefs? "We're on our way to D.C.," Cherry says with a laugh.

 

 

Any chance Paul & Ron ate a meal prepared by these same chefs?

No way!

 

Organic?    Paul & Ron could cares less about organic food! They just want food to taste good and it's down his gullet!   Nope, keep brainstorming.

YOU WOULD BE SURPRISED...I would bet that at paul's home his wife plans, shops and buys over 90% of all of the food--and I would also bet that she only cooks healthy organic and natural foods

Theoretically, you could make up a name and Social Security #, or give them a friend's name and ID. If not, before they collect your address and SS#, simply hang up. Beleive me there is no way to win twice within 30 days, even if you didnt pick up the earlier prize, if you gave them your correct info. A couple of years ago, I won a crappy xbox game, and, not having an xbox, I never picked it up. 3 weeks later I won a Disney Animal Kingdom getaway for 4, and when I gave them my info, they told me I could not win and quickly took the next caller.

Who really cares...I happen to think your wrong, but I don't know because nobody has gotten back to me yet?? The bottom line is that I've called everyday since the begining, and I"ve only got through three times as a 1-13 caller including today's call. The only other day that I got through, I was caller #1 and #10 in the same day...EERRR!!!

 

I'll let you know if I can keep playing.

 

When they call me back...

 

Good Luck!

The Classical labyrinth (sometimes referred to as Cretan) can help us to bring our emotional and physical bodies into balance. It is used most widely around the world and has seven "paths" as the human body has seven major "chakras." Chakra, from the Sanskrit word meaning "wheel of light," are centers of power and energy in the human body which channel energy from the cosmos to connect the human energy field with the greater energy of the Universe.

Below is a chart indicating the chakra name and color most widely associated with it, followed by the area of the body it nourishes (also indicated in illustration to left):

7 Crown (violet, white)
Upper brain, right eye

6 Third Eye (indigo)
Lower brain, left eye, ears, nose, nervous system

5 Throat (blue)
Bronchial and vocal apparatus, lungs

4 Heart (green)
Heart, blood, circulatory system

3 Solar Plexus (yellow)
Stomach, liver, gall bladder, nervous system

2 Navel/Sacral (orange)
Reproductive system

1 Root/Base (red)
Spinal column, kidneys

The Classical labyrinth illustration to the left shows the paths of the labyrinth in the colors of the seven major chakras of the human body

Paul Castronovo

The better looking half of the "Paul and Young Ron show" heard weekday mornings on Big 105.9, has been entertaining South Florida radio audiences since his graduation from The University of Florida in 1984.

Paul got his start at Rock 104 in Gainesville, then was immediately hired at the Rock of the 80's station, K 102, where he was immediately fired! He then showed up at 103.5 WSHE, She's only Rock and Roll, where, in 1989, he met his long time partner Ron Brewer, and the rest is history.

In 1995 Paul and Young Ron moved to 94.9 ZETA, where they spent nearly a decade before arriving at their current radio home: Miami's classic Rock station Big 105.9.

Paul is a graduate of Lake Worth high in Palm Beach County, is an avid fisherman and diver, and a rabid Gator and Dolphin fan. He and his wife Gina and their two boys AJ and Nic reside in Lighthouse Point.

Paul cannot figure out why Local 10 has decided to put him on television, so keep it quiet. Good Day sir.

"past radio stations i worked at"...don't know...doesn't flow right. if it was "I paul castronovo has had 7 of these" then maybe. you could be right, if you remember the first time he asked this question he even stumbled and asked steve "How do i ask this?"...so you may be right and he may have just worded the question wrong.

Time to change the thread...

 

Paul said yesterdays caller was close... People are throwing out guesses, or something to that effect?

We have established that he frequents the site.  I'm thinking it was one of my other quesses of "holes, or openings in the male body".

 ears

nostrils

 mouth

anus

penis =7

 

It's crazy but what the hell...it seems like Steve thought up the question!

 

Maybe it is 7 shakras...remember Paul asked Steve to clarify the wording, which means Steve most likely thought up the question.

 

Or,

Maybe he was just shinning us on...  and i was not close at all!

i'm not feeling the shakras thing...and when he asked how to ask the question i really don't think steve would have told him to use his name for the "holes" theory...they would have used their "average person has 7 of these" i think for the holes idea...this is such a vague question anything is possible...

I talked with Andrew at promotions today, and I asked him if I was no longer eligible to win "You can't win" because I won a consolation prize. He said the station policy was that you can't win more than one giveaway within 30 days. However, "You Can't Win" is a morning show and the decision falls with Paul and Ron. I was told that if I were lucky enough to get thru again with the right answer, I would be able to beg and plead my case and it was up to them!

 

I'm going to keep trying...what the hell!

 

I can't wait to get drunk at the Grill House and call the Drunk Dial line on the way home...

 

Thanks Paul and Young Ron   

 

 I love you guys!

Today's answer of 7 radio station contracts was pretty close to what I was going to say. I suspect that the real answer will be something more personal to Paul. Not clothes, nor jobs.

 

I was caller 11 and I called before they even said to start calling on the radio.

 

Any ideas out there???

 

At this rate it is possible it wont be answered until a hint is given.
