05/25/2007 Rapport of the hosts. Great conversational quality.
05/15/2007 Great back and forth banter between hosts. They are realistic, funny,and honest. Show reminds me of Seinfeld in that it's a show about nothing in particular just the quirks of life. I can relate with both of the hosts humor, and to Betsy's addiction to thrift stores. When Mr. B laughs really hard it's so funny!
05/13/2007 it's funny and charming to hear two people that like each other and are able to joke about each other.
05/13/2007 cool people

04/02/2007 excellent humor, friendly hosts, good storytelling
03/23/2007 Croncast was a charming podcast in the early days; it becomes more difficult to listen to as Chris' ego expands. Betsy remains a joy to listen to.

03/07/2007 The hosts
03/04/2007 I have been listening since January of 2005 and I am totally hooked! Chris and Betsy are extremely funny and entertaining. When you listen to them, it is like having a conversation with your friends. I listen on my iPOD at work and I am constantly laughing out loud. The sound quality is excellent! It is definitely professional sounding. I took this for granted until I subscribed to other podcasts with poor sound (and ended up unsubcribing to them). Keep up the good work!

02/21/2007 The hosts are one of a kind. My wife and I can really relate to them. They are very enjoyable to listen to. I can't count the number of times I have laughed out loud while listening. They should get paid to do what they do.
02/21/2007 It's kinda funny sometimes. You can listen without really paying attention
02/20/2007 It is extremely intelligent and absolutely hilarious...very engaging!
02/20/2007 personalities
02/20/2007 The dynamic between Kris and Betsy is wonderful. Their relationship isn't perfect, but they obviously love each other and that's what makes it great. Plus they are both EXTREMELY funny.
02/20/2007 Content, Hosts,
02/20/2007 The realism. The bickering. Reminds me of my wife and myself. Just bickering sometimes to have something to talk about, pick a fight just to fight and get over it and have fun.
02/20/2007 The chemistry between Kris & Betsy.
02/20/2007 the humor of the hosts

02/19/2007 Betsy's ability to put up with her husband's interesting viewpoints.
02/19/2007 It's funny.
02/19/2007 very entertaining
02/19/2007 People involved it's the kind of show that only works with Betsy/ Chris so it's hard to pick anything you can do more of
02/19/2007 I like the banter back and forth between Betsy and Mr B - they argue like my husband and I do. Also, the frequency of the episodes. 3 times a week feeds wonderfully into my attention deficit disorder ;)
02/19/2007 The Hosts
02/19/2007 The chemistry between the hosts is wonderful. Betsy is hilarious. Kris seems like a completely genuine, nice guy. Together, they are entertaining and seem completely ""for real.""

What Listeners Don't Like
01/30/2008 Nothing
01/10/2008 That they're stopping! Please, do something!
01/02/2008 I wish they were making big money from the podcast.
12/31/2007 When it's not on.
12/29/2007 the hosts are hostile to each other sometimes and the man laughs at nothing
12/28/2007 format changes but since the hosts have a real life I understand the necessity.
12/26/2007 The intro & outgo.
12/20/2007 They think we only want to hear about the good times. We want to hear about the trials, too.
11/02/2007 I like everything
10/29/2007 The way Betsy disses Kris' family. I mean come on...
10/23/2007 Occasional liberal/Democratic skew.
10/22/2007 nothing
10/22/2007 No complaints.
10/18/2007 There is nothing I don't like about it. I guess only that they are not getting rich doing it because they deserve it.
10/11/2007 kris's laugh
10/04/2007 Sometimes it is too short, I wish they had hour long podcasts.
10/03/2007 no reader from webpage?
10/03/2007 I can never catch up it seems always 2 or 3 behind.
09/13/2007 nothing
09/10/2007 that they aren't on everyday!!
09/07/2007 should be daily
09/07/2007 no video associated with it
09/05/2007 nothin'
09/04/2007 Just that I'm SO far behind in listening to episodes! (About 2 weeks behind)
08/29/2007 Sometimes it's too short
08/29/2007 It's too short!
08/29/2007 The sound of running water. It makes me have to pee.
08/27/2007 its too short sometimes but i guess kris and betsy can have a life
08/26/2007 Not one thing!
08/22/2007 Doesn't come out often enough!
08/03/2007 sometimes shows are not long enough, granted, they don't make a living off this!
07/30/2007 That they only put out a show 3 times a week.
07/11/2007 The episodes are over too quickly!
07/10/2007 i like it all, no complaints
07/06/2007 Kris Smith. He simply doesn't get how life works.
06/19/2007 Nothing comes to mind about the show. I do have a suggestion for you though - how about doing an idiot's guide to RSS feeds on the show? I haven't monkeyed around enough to get the episodes to download to my pc automatically so I can move them to my phone's memory card. I *think* that's what RSS is for, but I haven't had the time to mess around with it to figure it out. I *know* Kris knows how to do it - why not do a 5-minute tutorial on the show about how to do it? -Jennifer in San Diego (your alter ego, Dave's, wife)
06/19/2007 Life is sometimes a little boring....
06/16/2007 The new intro music.
06/15/2007 Nothing
06/10/2007 can't think of a thing
06/09/2007 There is nothing about it I don't like. Keep up the great work.
06/08/2007 They interupt each other during stories and go off on tangents, and sometimes forget to finish the original story.
05/27/2007 I have very little that I dislike about the show.
05/26/2007 I would not change a thing. I was glad to see the music between segments go.
05/25/2007 That is isn't every day of the week.
05/15/2007 Not much I don't like about the show, but one time they had a guest on, a female family friend who they were trying to find a boyfriend for and she had the worst east coast accent. It wasn't kind on the ears at all, especially for west coast listeners. It sounded like nails on a chalkboard.
05/13/2007 Kris annoys me sometimes. I think he thinks he's funnier than he is.
05/13/2007 sometimes weird edits
05/11/2007 Beginning music, abrupt ending, the bits of music throughout (nice idea, but they don't work).
05/09/2007 Way to much bad language
05/02/2007 Since the return of the show it seems like something is missing. I'm not sure exactly what it is. Also some of the shows seem to be rather short.
04/30/2007 Sometimes a little too much time is spent examining the clammy white underbelly of middle-American life.
04/29/2007 the language makes it difficult to listen to around my kids
04/29/2007 Can't think of anything
04/21/2007 Nothing, I love everything about it.
04/15/2007 The fact that they feel they need to edit themselves for us.
04/12/2007 Nothing.
03/13/2007 The cussing.
03/12/2007 It is too short
03/07/2007 Wish it was more often ;=) I think the website is a bit confusing.
03/07/2007 there's not really anything i don't like.
03/07/2007 nothing
03/04/2007 Not much to dislike. Maybe a show one or two times per week instead of three.
03/03/2007 nothing negative, really
03/01/2007 Episodes too frequent, twice a week would be better. Don't have time for 3 episodes a week
03/01/2007 I've just started listening and I caught a couple episodes where Kris was sick so it was 85etsy and that just didn't work as well. You need the calm of Kris to even out the excitability of Betsy.
03/01/2007 They don't podcast 2x's a day every day forever and ever and ever..duh!
03/01/2007 I can't listen to it around my kids.
02/28/2007 nothing
02/28/2007 not much
02/27/2007 I dont expect everyone to like everything but it bothers me occasionally when Kris gets adamant on how much he dislikes bicyclists or pets.
02/27/2007 Sound of mother-in-law's bath water running in background.
02/27/2007 Unnecessary use of strong language in an otherwise pretty family-friendly show.
02/26/2007 The cussing!!!
02/26/2007 sometimes, not always it can be a bit long.
02/26/2007 Not much to dislike
02/26/2007 Pretty much no complaints.
02/25/2007 The times when I want to scream at them when they're about to do something really stupid with their money again (cf. Slowsky, calculating eBay earnings but ignoring the fees)
02/25/2007 would like more frequent shows
02/25/2007 I just can't quit them.
02/24/2007 The host's sometimes frustrating inability to see how they sabotage themselves in reaching their goals.
02/24/2007 It makes me very uneasy when Kris and Betsy argue.
02/24/2007 Not often enough
02/24/2007 Hosts occasionally talking over each other.
02/23/2007 nada
02/23/2007 I wish it were every day. :)
02/23/2007 nothing...
02/23/2007 I wouldn't change a thing! My only worry is that someday they'll burn out and stop podcasting. :)
02/23/2007 huh... nothing...
02/23/2007 that it isn't everyday.
02/23/2007 The fact that I can't put my finger on why I can't stop listening to it.
02/23/2007 Month-long breaks ;)
02/23/2007 When they have to take time off. Though I understand.
02/22/2007 strange women lying around in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government, supreme executive power comes from a mandate from the masses, not from some farsical aquatic ceremony
02/22/2007 Sometimes they skip around topics alot
02/22/2007 Its not a daily podcast.
02/22/2007 When it ends.
02/21/2007 I just wish there was more, more, more!
02/21/2007 Hosts occasionally step on one another
02/21/2007 wish shows were either more frequent or longer, although wouldn't want to see what happened to nick and jess happen to them...therefore, frequency and length are fine - lol
02/21/2007 that they are taking a break soon!
02/21/2007 The upcoming podcast boycott, er, break they are taking !!!! :(
02/21/2007 Sometimes the hosts do crazy things and I want to jump through my iPod and snap them out of their decision to do something irrational.
02/21/2007 nothing
02/21/2007 That I can't listen more.
02/21/2007 Taking month off.
02/21/2007 John Elway Dodge
02/21/2007 Kris rags on Betsy too much.
02/21/2007 Kris' angry rants. I don't like when he threatens the dog.
02/21/2007 Nothing. Croncast is great. Wait, the podcast name is little too geeky.
02/21/2007 I hate it when Kris builds some big thing up for a future episode, then it turns out he just got a new job.
02/20/2007 There is nothing that I do not like about this podcast.
02/20/2007 nothing
02/20/2007 I have nothing to complain about regarding their podcasts. Never been unsatisfied.
02/20/2007 Too short
02/20/2007 The fact that they're taking a month off. You bastards. I'm just gonna have to argue that much more with my own wife to make up for the lack of you bickering. :P
02/20/2007 Not applicable
02/20/2007 the length and frequency, would love longer shows more often (sorry guys, but I love you and it's true!)
02/20/2007 I guess it's allegience to the glossy surface of popular culture without acknowledging or investigating the bredth of possibility below that surface - but that is just a token issue, I had to think about it to come up with something I didn't like.
02/20/2007 It's not a travelling vaudeville show.
02/20/2007 Sometimes I wish the hosts would seek the help of some financial planning professionals. They could then be more confident in the choices they make - and relate on the podcast.
02/20/2007 making a big deal about something that is boring?
02/20/2007 The fact that there aren't 5 podcasts per week!
02/20/2007 only complaint is that it's not daily!
02/20/2007 There is nothing I don't like about this podcast
02/20/2007 Sometimes Betsy is too mean to Kris!
02/20/2007 Not much...
02/20/2007 A live event would be interesting to hear.
02/20/2007 Swearing / foul language
02/20/2007 Sometimes Kris and Betsy's real life interupts their ability to get shows out. But... that's life.
02/20/2007 sometimes the same topic gets discussed over and over again
02/20/2007 I like everything
02/19/2007 That Kris and Betsy aren't making any money on it! They are hysterical, I would pay for that!
02/19/2007 That Betsy and Kris sound like they are about to give up doing the podcast.
02/19/2007 Chris' political views.
02/19/2007 Not much.
02/19/2007 i wish it were every day
02/19/2007 Same as above, jsut hard to think of what you can do less of
02/19/2007 hmmmmmmmm...I wish each episode was longer? Because I'm greedy like that?
02/19/2007 Nothing
02/19/2007 Nothing! It's fabulous the way it is!
02/19/2007 sometimes repetitive subjects, and episodes just to churn out more episodes even when they don't have too much to say
02/19/2007 swearing
02/19/2007 I wish there was more!

02/19/2007 nothing
02/19/2007 the dog
02/19/2007 Very little. I'm not thrilled that the hosts are taking a month off, but I know this is a big time commitment for them.
02/19/2007 Betsy and Kris talking about the dog
02/19/2007 Sometimes the hosts are braindead.
02/19/2007 Nothing
02/19/2007 Would like to have more episodes per week.
02/19/2007 That they are on only 3 times a week. But that is me being selfish.
02/19/2007 Nothing comes to mind.
02/19/2007 Only 3times a week, :)

10/03/2007 Betsy and Kris do a wonderful job of airing out their lives on the air in a way that is real, funny, and sometimes even JUST A Little bit uncomfortable. Their lucky they got all that expensive equipment between them while their doing the show. In the future I see bullet proof glass..... LOL Just kidding.

03/23/2007 Croncast was a charming podcast in the early days; it becomes more difficult to listen to as Chris' ego expands. Betsy remains a joy to listen to.

When you listen to them, it is like having a conversation with your friends. I listen on my iPOD at work and I am constantly laughing out loud. The sound quality is excellent!

02/21/2007 The hosts are one of a kind. My wife and I can really relate to them. They are very enjoyable to listen to. I can't count the number of times I have laughed out loud while listening. They should get paid to do what they do.
02/21/2007 It's kinda funny sometimes. You can listen without really paying attention
02/20/2007 It is extremely intelligent and absolutely hilarious...very engaging!
02/20/2007 personalities
02/20/2007 The dynamic between Kris and Betsy is wonderful. Their relationship isn't perfect, but they obviously love each other and that's what makes it great. Plus they are both EXTREMELY funny.
02/20/2007 Content, Hosts,
02/20/2007 The realism. The bickering. Reminds me of my wife and myself. Just bickering sometimes to have something to talk about, pick a fight just to fight and get over it and have fun.

02/19/2007 It's funny.
02/19/2007 very entertaining
02/19/2007 People involved it's the kind of show that only works with Betsy/ Chris so it's hard to pick anything you can do more of
02/19/2007 I like the banter back and forth between Betsy and Mr B - they argue like my husband and I do. Also, the frequency of the episodes. 3 times a week feeds wonderfully into my attention deficit disorder ;)
02/19/2007 The Hosts

What Listeners Don't Like
01/30/2008 Nothing
01/10/2008 That they're stopping! Please, do something!
01/02/2008 I wish they were making big money from the podcast.
12/31/2007 When it's not on.
12/29/2007 the hosts are hostile to each other sometimes and the man laughs at nothing
12/28/2007 format changes but since the hosts have a real life I understand the necessity.
12/26/2007 The intro & outgo.
12/20/2007 They think we only want to hear about the good times. We want to hear about the trials, too.
11/02/2007 I like everything
10/29/2007 The way Betsy disses Kris' family. I mean come on...
10/23/2007 Occasional liberal/Democratic skew.
10/22/2007 nothing
10/22/2007 No complaints.
10/18/2007 There is nothing I don't like about it. I guess only that they are not getting rich doing it because they deserve it.
10/11/2007 kris's laugh
10/04/2007 Sometimes it is too short, I wish they had hour long podcasts.
10/03/2007 no reader from webpage?
10/03/2007 I can never catch up it seems always 2 or 3 behind.
09/13/2007 nothing
09/10/2007 that they aren't on everyday!!
09/07/2007 should be daily
09/07/2007 no video associated with it
09/05/2007 nothin'
09/04/2007 Just that I'm SO far behind in listening to episodes! (About 2 weeks behind)
08/29/2007 Sometimes it's too short
08/29/2007 It's too short!
08/29/2007 The sound of running water. It makes me have to pee.
08/27/2007 its too short sometimes but i guess kris and betsy can have a life
08/26/2007 Not one thing!
08/22/2007 Doesn't come out often enough!
08/03/2007 sometimes shows are not long enough, granted, they don't make a living off this!
07/30/2007 That they only put out a show 3 times a week.
07/11/2007 The episodes are over too quickly!
07/10/2007 i like it all, no complaints
07/06/2007 Kris Smith. He simply doesn't get how life works.
06/19/2007 Nothing comes to mind about the show. I do have a suggestion for you though - how about doing an idiot's guide to RSS feeds on the show? I haven't monkeyed around enough to get the episodes to download to my pc automatically so I can move them to my phone's memory card. I *think* that's what RSS is for, but I haven't had the time to mess around with it to figure it out. I *know* Kris knows how to do it - why not do a 5-minute tutorial on the show about how to do it? -Jennifer in San Diego (your alter ego, Dave's, wife)
06/19/2007 Life is sometimes a little boring....
06/16/2007 The new intro music.
06/15/2007 Nothing
06/10/2007 can't think of a thing
06/09/2007 There is nothing about it I don't like. Keep up the great work.
06/08/2007 They interupt each other during stories and go off on tangents, and sometimes forget to finish the original story.
05/27/2007 I have very little that I dislike about the show.
05/26/2007 I would not change a thing. I was glad to see the music between segments go.
05/25/2007 That is isn't every day of the week.
05/15/2007 Not much I don't like about the show, but one time they had a guest on, a female family friend who they were trying to find a boyfriend for and she had the worst east coast accent. It wasn't kind on the ears at all, especially for west coast listeners. It sounded like nails on a chalkboard.
05/13/2007 Kris annoys me sometimes. I think he thinks he's funnier than he is.
05/13/2007 sometimes weird edits
05/11/2007 Beginning music, abrupt ending, the bits of music throughout (nice idea, but they don't work).
05/09/2007 Way to much bad language
05/02/2007 Since the return of the show it seems like something is missing. I'm not sure exactly what it is. Also some of the shows seem to be rather short.
04/30/2007 Sometimes a little too much time is spent examining the clammy white underbelly of middle-American life.
04/29/2007 the language makes it difficult to listen to around my kids
04/29/2007 Can't think of anything
04/21/2007 Nothing, I love everything about it.
04/15/2007 The fact that they feel they need to edit themselves for us.
04/12/2007 Nothing.
03/13/2007 The cussing.
03/12/2007 It is too short
03/07/2007 Wish it was more often ;=) I think the website is a bit confusing.
03/07/2007 there's not really anything i don't like.
03/07/2007 nothing
03/04/2007 Not much to dislike. Maybe a show one or two times per week instead of three.
03/03/2007 nothing negative, really
03/01/2007 Episodes too frequent, twice a week would be better. Don't have time for 3 episodes a week
03/01/2007 I've just started listening and I caught a couple episodes where Kris was sick so it was 85etsy and that just didn't work as well. You need the calm of Kris to even out the excitability of Betsy.
03/01/2007 They don't podcast 2x's a day every day forever and ever and ever..duh!
03/01/2007 I can't listen to it around my kids.
02/28/2007 nothing
02/28/2007 not much
02/27/2007 I dont expect everyone to like everything but it bothers me occasionally when Kris gets adamant on how much he dislikes bicyclists or pets.
02/27/2007 Sound of mother-in-law's bath water running in background.
02/27/2007 Unnecessary use of strong language in an otherwise pretty family-friendly show.
02/26/2007 The cussing!!!
02/26/2007 sometimes, not always it can be a bit long.
02/26/2007 Not much to dislike
02/26/2007 Pretty much no complaints.
02/25/2007 The times when I want to scream at them when they're about to do something really stupid with their money again (cf. Slowsky, calculating eBay earnings but ignoring the fees)
02/25/2007 would like more frequent shows
02/25/2007 I just can't quit them.
02/24/2007 The host's sometimes frustrating inability to see how they sabotage themselves in reaching their goals.
02/24/2007 It makes me very uneasy when Kris and Betsy argue.
02/24/2007 Not often enough
02/24/2007 Hosts occasionally talking over each other.
02/23/2007 nada
02/23/2007 I wish it were every day. :)
02/23/2007 nothing...
02/23/2007 I wouldn't change a thing! My only worry is that someday they'll burn out and stop podcasting. :)
02/23/2007 huh... nothing...
02/23/2007 that it isn't everyday.
02/23/2007 The fact that I can't put my finger on why I can't stop listening to it.
02/23/2007 Month-long breaks ;)
02/23/2007 When they have to take time off. Though I understand.
02/22/2007 strange women lying around in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government, supreme executive power comes from a mandate from the masses, not from some farsical aquatic ceremony
02/22/2007 Sometimes they skip around topics alot
02/22/2007 Its not a daily podcast.
02/22/2007 When it ends.
02/21/2007 I just wish there was more, more, more!
02/21/2007 Hosts occasionally step on one another
02/21/2007 wish shows were either more frequent or longer, although wouldn't want to see what happened to nick and jess happen to them...therefore, frequency and length are fine - lol
02/21/2007 that they are taking a break soon!
02/21/2007 The upcoming podcast boycott, er, break they are taking !!!! :(
02/21/2007 Sometimes the hosts do crazy things and I want to jump through my iPod and snap them out of their decision to do something irrational.
02/21/2007 nothing
02/21/2007 That I can't listen more.
02/21/2007 Taking month off.
02/21/2007 John Elway Dodge
02/21/2007 Kris rags on Betsy too much.
02/21/2007 Kris' angry rants. I don't like when he threatens the dog.
02/21/2007 Nothing. Croncast is great. Wait, the podcast name is little too geeky.
02/21/2007 I hate it when Kris builds some big thing up for a future episode, then it turns out he just got a new job.
02/20/2007 There is nothing that I do not like about this podcast.
02/20/2007 nothing
02/20/2007 I have nothing to complain about regarding their podcasts. Never been unsatisfied.
02/20/2007 Too short
02/20/2007 The fact that they're taking a month off. You bastards. I'm just gonna have to argue that much more with my own wife to make up for the lack of you bickering. :P
02/20/2007 Not applicable
02/20/2007 the length and frequency, would love longer shows more often (sorry guys, but I love you and it's true!)
02/20/2007 I guess it's allegience to the glossy surface of popular culture without acknowledging or investigating the bredth of possibility below that surface - but that is just a token issue, I had to think about it to come up with something I didn't like.
02/20/2007 It's not a travelling vaudeville show.
02/20/2007 Sometimes I wish the hosts would seek the help of some financial planning professionals. They could then be more confident in the choices they make - and relate on the podcast.
02/20/2007 making a big deal about something that is boring?
02/20/2007 The fact that there aren't 5 podcasts per week!
02/20/2007 only complaint is that it's not daily!
02/20/2007 There is nothing I don't like about this podcast
02/20/2007 Sometimes Betsy is too mean to Kris!
02/20/2007 Not much...
02/20/2007 A live event would be interesting to hear.
02/20/2007 Swearing / foul language
02/20/2007 Sometimes Kris and Betsy's real life interupts their ability to get shows out. But... that's life.
02/20/2007 sometimes the same topic gets discussed over and over again
02/20/2007 I like everything
02/19/2007 That Kris and Betsy aren't making any money on it! They are hysterical, I would pay for that!
02/19/2007 That Betsy and Kris sound like they are about to give up doing the podcast.
02/19/2007 Chris' political views.
02/19/2007 Not much.
02/19/2007 i wish it were every day
02/19/2007 Same as above, jsut hard to think of what you can do less of
02/19/2007 hmmmmmmmm...I wish each episode was longer? Because I'm greedy like that?
02/19/2007 Nothing
02/19/2007 Nothing! It's fabulous the way it is!
02/19/2007 sometimes repetitive subjects, and episodes just to churn out more episodes even when they don't have too much to say
02/19/2007 swearing
02/19/2007 I wish there was more!
02/19/2007 I really don't have any complaints about this podcast.
02/19/2007 nothing
02/19/2007 the dog
02/19/2007 Very little. I'm not thrilled that the hosts are taking a month off, but I know this is a big time commitment for them.
02/19/2007 Betsy and Kris talking about the dog
02/19/2007 Sometimes the hosts are braindead.
02/19/2007 Nothing
02/19/2007 Would like to have more episodes per week.
02/19/2007 That they are on only 3 times a week. But that is me being selfish.
02/19/2007 Nothing comes to mind.
02/19/2007 Only 3times a week, :)

Special note: Betsy and Jeanie are having a meetup in San Francisco May 21, 2007 at House of Shields 39 New Montgomery St., Time: 6:30 p.m., stop and have a drink or two!

The cough has subsided
Talk of the vacation Jeanie
Did you brush the baby's hair?
How about a coat?
I need to show up and take care of this stuff
What kind of planning are you talking about?
You will be tourists
I don't like to travel and feel like a tourist
Hopping on and off the bus
You will organize your trip for junk
You won't be able to bring junk home
What are you talking about?
I will be FedEx'ing that stuff
I have a funny box story for you
I went to a new Kinkos
They weren't my people
She says, "Do you work at Alta?"
What is Alta?
You were missing the clear plastic purse
The retail mistrust of employees
I can't imagine working in retail the rest of my life
Did my bit
Then she gets it
The light went on, she realized I was a dumpster diver
Sustainability 101
I choose to do this
Did you come to college to find a wife?
I knew I was going to marry you
It was one of those things
Thinking about moving
It will not be Nicaragua, Mr. B

It's TFF . . . Tell a Friend Friday
Here's what we got going on
Tons of comments coming in
Today will not be typical show . . . we're reading comments
Lots of entries in my haphazard Google contest
Finding the ones that were for the contest were hard
Now we need to figure out who the hell these people are
Not like your legs are broken
Just your Jaguar
It is the saddest looking thing
Tags are expired, hood ornament torn off, license plate holder Magic Erasered and leaking oil
Did I mention I haven't driven it for about 3 months?
The voting at Blogger's Choice Awards is difficult
Thanks to everyone who visited
We're gonna read the comments and contest entries
Comment - You parents can find you if they want.
Saggy Balls 101 wants to party
Comment - No need for video
He's a purist, like a biker
I would do it as a three camera shoot
5 minute wrap up of week
Comment - The karma comment
I full well expect it
Since I didn't swallow the scope I am not on same page
After they listen to about 3 of these shows, guaranteed
We've had this discussion
Bottom line, I expect it and would respect their decision
Keeping grammy close enough to make things normal
You never cared about me
Let's move on before we bore everyone
Comment - Curl that gun hand into a fist
Comment - Kid getting picked on
Same thing that they were doing already
Mob of gigantic kids jacked up Captain Crunch and Cartoon Network
While he is eating his Kix and watching PBS Sprout
Not to say that my kids are any different
You were picked on as a kids too
Yeah, it made me funnier
Hope your kids use it as material later
When I wrote it on my folder I meant it
Grunge stick figures
You're psycho
Move forward please
Our whole meeting . . . there were many times
I would have caught you slow driving in front of my house
Lesson in beatup karma
The pom-pom squad is not the delicate flowers
Doubt there was delicate flower that hadn't been had in your school
Vickie got her ass kicked by this girl
What brought this on? I know you sister
I'm not saying that it was provoked
My parents came together and went to school
Vickie is now planning class reunion
She gets a hunk of the class list
I tried to find the girl . . . but couldn't after her last arrest
She was offering sexual favors at the court house to pay her tickets
Attorney's are perfect
There is no client, paternity privaleg
Comment - When exactly were you two cool?
Part of my psychosis thinking I have been cool since birth
Probably a social disorder
I proved that I am not cool by taking you to nerd convention
Elbow deep in the back of a goat
Don't you remember goat cervix bangles?
I invented those
My dad was on Montel
And my baby sitter was Cindy Crawford
People have know me for 20-30 minutes before I tell them
We both have a lot of self-confidence
We went through crazy shit together
Captain of the pom-pom squad is not cool
Maybe in Sycamore
They went to drink out of the cow tank

Betsy and her husband Kris July 19, 2006

A stellar week for comments on the website
Kris feels mushy inside
Betsy loves getting email
More is arriving than we can respond to
Croncast comes to you from the #2 place to live in America - Naperville, IL according to CNN Money Magazine
Naperville always ranks high . . . top 3 for last 5 years
Beaten by Ft. Colins, Colorado
John Elway has it out for us
What is hodling us back
So what makes Naperville so great?
Family type stuff to do . . . plenty
People who live near here say, "I live in Naperville."
The combination of a kick ass Goodwill and community
Park district services
Naper haters
Great city planning
The cops are hidden
More green space than anything else in Naperville
"People in Naperville are snobs" . . . we don't buy it. Live here and see if you like it.
There are other suburbs that are very shwank
Naperville is a big place
If you don't understand the Colorado beef check out the vacation shows
So Mr. B what car did you get?
"I can't think of any other word than pretentious."
Qualifying the price of the car
People need to find out how much stuff costs before they assume
Frick had some great choices
Betsy thinks I would make a great shriner

I traded this . . .


For this.





You probably didn't see this coming
The entire qualifying of the Jaguar purchase
It started wanting a new stereo for my Scion xB
Chose the Scion release xB 3.0
Then I decided that I needed some daddy cred
Took a look for Volvos
Couldn't afford the new S40
We could buy a fleet of Slowsky's
Didn't have any used, but they had a 2004 'new to me' car
$6000 under Kelly Blue Book
The Jaguar is Betsy's dream car
"Did you buy the car for me? NO. You asshole you drive my dream car away every day."
Elliot sitting on a couch pillow.
Some of you may be already hating me
"A Hummer is a reason to hate someone," Betsy
Listed online for $18,915 and I got an even better deal
It has warranty still and is in unbelievable condition
It's a hot car
No way your sisters water should break in my car
