Orny disputing write up in Pittsburgh Tribune on radio 105.9

Listen to this discussion with Radio DJs Tim and Bob on 105.9 The X in Pittsburgh about an article written about me in the Pittsburgh Tribune. I didn't read the article but you can hear my reaction as they read some of the ingenious insights and observations (Extreme sarcasm.) He made some easy, cheap, inaccurate points-- skewing facts to sound negative. It was lazy. Most people (critics/ reviewers/bloggers) find it easier to take the low road, rather than take the high road of compassion. They think it will sell more papers or heighten interest. BUT AREN'T WE ALL SICK OF THE NEGATIVISM? The collective foul smell emitting from the world wide hate? I outgrew this kind of poking in high school. Most of these write ups are done by people that are not brave enough to chase their own dreams but rather choose to dash the dreams of others. I see through most of them. But it makes for an interesting discussion. Thanks Tim and Bob-- you made my day. And you should read the piece on me in Psychology Today if you are interested-- it’s about overcoming failures in a positive light. “9 prominent people talk about their failures.” (Which includes Donald Trump. That huge failure! (Extreme sarcasm.)

(Not worth linking article in question that appeared in Pittsburgh Tribune. The radio interview says it all.)

Larry King says something stupid again

Shocking. This is a long one-- so get the bag of chips and can of soda and hunker down for some BrainNoise. Guest Michael Moore sings "Times They are a Changin'" on The Jay Leno Show and Larry King thinks Moore wrote it.

Obama heckled like Bob Dylan was in 1966

I'm sure even fewer will appreciate this one.

This one might be for me and a few Dylan fanatics. Or maybe just me. And after hours of editing, I realized I'm fine with that. I get it. Maybe some will be as intrigued about that night in 1966 and the backstory it carries as I was. It's really about a man doing what he believed was the next step in his evolution as an artist-- plugging in his guitar. Even though a majority of his fans strongly disagreed-- he remained determined and courageous as audiences booed.

These two songs make NO sense to me STILL!

This is an experiment gone horribly wrong. I am warning you-- this video sucks. I am partially embarrassed to even post it. But I am. Spend the next two minutes doing something else unless you want to help me understand why I am even posting this. I couldn't get these two songs, from my childhood, out of my head.

Dancing with the Stars: Steve Wozniak founder of Apple and the Two Step

I finally broke down and started watching Dancing with the Stars-- but for one reason-- to watch Apple Computer founder and super super geek Steve Wonziak. THIS is entertainment. But watch the hypocrisy I have uncovered in the computer world. Apple, and believe me nobody drinks the Apple kool-Aid more than me, is lying to us!

Dutch E. Adams energy plan

Please support this guy's energy plan.



I wrote this concept and then brought it to my friends Adam McKay and Chris Henchy over at funnyordie.com. They got me connected with Lauren Palmigiano who set the whole thing up. (Thank you Lauren!) It was edited by the very talented Drew Antzis. This is the end result.

The original ending was written as such-- to include a celebrity but for this one-- but that was not in the cards for this one. Here is what I had in my noisy brain.

Orny walks past CELEBRITY on treadmill.

Orny
Put on a few pounds?

The CELEBRITY starts running faster. Orny winks to camera.

Orny
Useable energy.
