Paulie was a jackass Saturday

Never let it be said that errors don't happen on our CARDINAL COUPLE Radio Show. I gave Jeff and Jenny (and the listeners) a quiz on the show Saturday and I gave them an incorrect grade. One of the questions was:

"How many times had the UofL women's basketball team been to the Sweet Sixteen in the last six years ?"

They both guessed four. I told them five. I was wrong...for is the correct answer is (4).  So, they called me out on it on Twitter and a few other of Jeff's digital devices. All in good fun.

I humbly apologize for the miscue and the corrected quiz scores should be:

Jeff 80%
Jenny 70%

Think you can beat their scores? Take the quiz at the show. It's near the end of the broacast. Link below:

I dig Uncle Joe...

Since Jeff will be checking in via phone this Saturday...I'll also offer an apology over the air when he calls in. I have decided to resign from both the web-site and radio show at the end of the week and go live in a Tibetan monastery... devoting the rest of my life in contemplation of belly button lint and studying the philosophies of Uncle Joe from Petticoat Junction, my new mentor. I have asked Sonja to equally distribute the meager funds in the CARDINAL COUPLE checking account to research for The Children Without Foreheads charity and a exacta wheel in the fifth race at Ellis Park on Sunday (5 over all)...if we hit, those profits go to Timmy the Intern's CHIMPS FOR A BETTER SOCIETY.

Basically, it will all come to a head in the final five minutes of the radio show Saturday. Never confuse our Chairman of the Board...the esteemed Don Paulie. It doesn't go so well.

I hope they continue the show and site. Somedays, it is fairly amusing. Especially on the days I'm not writing.
