Memories of Riding The Older Buses Back In The Day (Throwback Thursday Story)

              Back in the day when I was growing up, we never had the handicapped buses as they were all stairs we had to climb up and I am talking old, old buses. Now what buses am I really talking about?

  • The old General Motors Fish Bowl buses as they always called them back then and always warm when I was on them and comfortable as well as the seats where padded. I also the Air conditioned ones they had later on before they were all pulled out of service and retired.
  • The MCI Classics- Really warm all the time which is always nice and I remember these really well back in the day. 
  • Flyers- Not the ones that we have to this day, the ones that had the rounded windows I remember very, very well. 
  • The next one is of course the Orion buses and I remember em from the old orions 117, 121, 122 & 123. Also from 129 - 145 in the numbers as the transit here had a ton of them. I also remember these from when I was still in my college years when I was in school for pre-media.

              There is a ton of memories from the buses I rode the buses and those are the buses I remember. I totally remember going home on the buses quite often with my dad from when I was in elementary school and remembering the old fish bowls and what not. Also as I said I took some of the older Orion buses when I was in college and I remember correctly that the 8141 one of the final Orion buses remaining in the system at the time and the last time I was on one was the 8141 bus and there is proof and when I say proof there is a video on YouTube of me on the bus so there is actual proof of it too. I will never forget which bus it was either and I remember it very vividly too.

My Favorite Monk Episodes!

               Today's post I would like to talk about some of my favorite Monk episodes. Now a small back story to how I get into the show. Now I got into the TV Show because of Eric, he introduced me into the show and I was wondering what the heck I was technically watching but as I kept on getting further and further into the show, I got right into the show and I have seen all seasons on Monk from start to finish. Anyways here are some of my favorite episodes that I enjoy:


1) Mr Monk On The Air- Mr. Monk goes on radio during his investigation and of course he got embarrassed when with a remix of him saying "Wipe, Wipe, Wipe" Which I found pretty hysterical to be honestly. 

2) Mr. Monk Stays In Bed- Poor Monk sick in bed with what I think is the flu bug. Anyways Julie, Natalie's daughter gave him a get well card that had a musical interlude to it and drove Mr. Monk insane to a point he tried to hide it and eventually threw it out. At the end the card came back to save the day and probably haunt Mr. Monk.

3) Mr. Monk A Contestant On Game Show- I know what you're going to say, I do not remember the name of any of these damn names of the actual episodes but he was trying to figure out how the one contestant is cheating and of course he went in there and he kept on cleaning off the smudge off the button and of course the button kept going off which was funny and personally one of my favorite episodes to date.

            There is a few episodes and like always with these kind of posts, I do not want to over do the posts and I try and not do that with these posts but those are at least my top 3 favorite let's just say and it is nice but I really hoped to add in more but that's OK, I am happy with the final product and I really hope you guys have enjoyed today's post as always I enjoyed writing this post for you guys.

Blog & Team Updates

             I keep forgetting that Larry has author privileges here on the website and I just looked and he is still author here so I should get him to post here and there and we will have something to blog about in the New Year as we are planning on going to Popeyes for Lunch and doing a Food Review for you guys and I have been saying this for the longest time now but it will be done for sure.  Larry doesn't always have to post but like I have told him in the past he has that privilege to write and he hasn't yet but he probably has totally forgotten he has the privilege. Not sure what he would blog about but we have a couple of ideas on our mind and they are:

  • Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker- Review  the movie with no spoilers as that is what we are not that kind of website or blog that spoils the movie for you guys but that can be on the list for him to review, even myself, we both can do a review.
  • Food Reviews- We are planning to do some food reviews together. We have like I said Pop Eyes on the list, I have Five Guys Burgers, Mr. Burger, Starr Burger so we have a few places in mind for the New Year and they will be even out on a Monthly basis for a while but we wanna do some.         

            Both him and I will do a review together and this was his idea for the website so I am very excited to see what is brought to the website and I am sure excited to be bringing some newer content to the website especially. We got the podcasts and now we got a bunch of content on the website but Larry is just the start and I am sure we will be adding a bunch of new stuff and we will definitely have to put a schedule together so this way we are not crossing paths with posts but we will all meeting discussing this soon to what we want to do. So exciting stuff for the website and like I said this is only the start for us! Also I am moving my blog posts to 12 Noon EST for now on. Finally the team page is returning soon!

Semi-Retired From Streaming!

             I know you guys haven't seen me live for over a month now and it has been a long time since I've casted on my own channel and obviously still co-host after PRCB is recorded on the "After Dark's" however we haven't been live. So I guess at this moment, I am just semi-retired from Streaming minus the "After Darks" that I have done but again not sure what the plan is this week yet if I am planning to be on the podcast or not. More then likely am but we will see what this week brings but either way I still cast but it is more of a co-host but still its a cast. So it is a semi retirement but still active around the community and a big part of Punk Rock Cheeseburger. So I am not fully retired so technically the title I think is clickbait title... SMH! I honestly streaming is not as important but I do stream with Rocky on an almost week basis. My primary focus and always will be the podcasts and with Twitch being second on the list but like I said I am a Co-Host role more. As for the Chris985 account on Twitch, I only use it for listening to shows on Twitch on an almost regular basis and I do follow a ton of different people too.


           I think this is the best decision for me to not stream and plus I have been trolled left right and center on the website but letting it bother me no more and there is something planned for PRCB and I want to wait and yes Twitch is involved and like I said I am on weekly on PRCB and that's it. I am dedicated to being on his stream once a week and honestly I am happy about it. I mean not just happy but I am OK with this change and I wanted to try and get away from streaming a bit more and to be a co-host or guest on Rocky's stream, I am really happy with it. I know we haven't been streaming Friday night "After Dark's" as we both have been a bit busy lately but we are going to get back to it. As you can see on the screen cap I posted on the post here to the title of the post for today, I changed it as I am technically Semi-retired from streaming as I said above. Why did I do this? Well I think it is more suitable that it says that I am semi retired not fully retired from streaming. It was the wrong idea and honestly the original title felt very clickbait for a title. I honestly do not want to be know for being a click baiter so that is why I changed the title and very quickly. So that is what is going on with me streaming and that entire thing about me streaming even to FB Fan Page, more then likely it will not happen at all.

Plans For Chris B On The Web's 5 Year Anniversary!

           If you haven't been keeping tabs in the last few years well this year marks 5 years ago since CBOTW (Chris B On The Web) is turning 5 and YOU guys the fans can get involved with this year celebrations and probably a ton more to come on that day and you never know. I got a bunch of ideas and I will talk about it on today's blog post and an announcement is coming but here is what is planned for the 5 year Anniversary for Chris B On The Web:
  
      1) The first thing I would like to mention that YOU GUYS, will be involved with the anniversary and this is strictly you guys as I have planned to not involve any ex staff but I will be talking to em in case they want to contribute but mainly going to involved you guys with making a video and again details are coming up on the social media later on today when I get a chance to record the video for social medi

      2) I am planning a luncheon with some of my former staff, not sure who will be available but I am sure Larry will be able to be there so at least one of us but planning to see if Eric and Justin wanna join in to the festivities and I will be talking to all 3 of the guys this week to see if they are interested in doing something like this to celebrate which more then likely it will not be on the exact day but whatever day they are available we will be doing this get together for Lunch and celebrating. 

       3) I may do a cast with Larry but again that is really up in the air right now as we do not know what the plan is or if we want to do that but there is ideas but I highly doubt it as I do not really want to make a big deal over it honestly but again that is all up in the air and if that was the case probably over on Periscope and yes I have had problems over there but able to make an account so I must of been unbanned and not known that but again I am not sure at this moment what we wanna do to be honest, it could be on the Facebook Fan Page for Chris B On The Web.


          There is what is planned but not planning to do all 3 for the most part 3 of it but never know may do a small FB Live even while we are out at lunch with all 3 of us I can do a small FB Live and we can all chat and what not but what I would like to achieve is to actually get 2 out of the 3 done at the most. Please do stay tuned to social media this week as I probably will know a ton more. Finally I apologize for no Royal Winter Fair Post this year as I didn't have the media pass with me this year but will make it up to you guys soon!

Sleep Schedule Is Really Off!

           Originally it was a weight loss update but obviously it is now an update on my sleep now as you know my sleep is all over the darn place. I know one of the reasons why is because of me working on the Power Rangers Podcast and getting the notes typed up and really getting it done as I am now half way through the two sets of notes my sleep should be getting better but it hasn't been lately as I have been sleeping early and up during the night but the nights have been very productive. However I need to get sleep fixed and probably the only time I can really sleep early is the days I am on Punk Rock Cheeseburger Podcast which is usually every week but at least once a month at the most. maybe more off. However the other days I need to get to bed around 9 or 930 at night at the most on the other nights but I need to actually start training my body to actually go to bed at this time at that time to ensure I get better sleep and not sleep half the damn day so this way I can get work done for the website as that hasn't been the case but yet I have been able to get Everything About Reality TV Podcast on time which it hasn't been the last 2 weeks it has been on a very odd schedule and this is due to my sleep schedule but hey least it is back on time. Sleep and my mental health is still the upmost important to me and I need to take care about myself at the same time but been trying. 


            This upcoming week I promise to get myself back on track with sleep and you obviously can tell the days I am awake during the night with my posts on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram posting stuff up but most of the time during the night I tweet the most of the time. However today I am getting my sleep back on the right track as I know I'll be back fairly late like 830 - 9 pm ish so this will be good I can relax for 30 minutes then go to bed and tomorrow's another day for me and I plan on working on the Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast more tomorrow with the sleep being fixed and a lot better then it has been lately. You cannot imagine how tired and worn out I am from the lack of sleep during the night. I miss getting up at 330, maybe 4 or 430 am and getting my day started but again that hasn't been the case lately as you know my posts on social are pretty much all over the place and I am sure you guys are quite confused. Final things I would like to say is my posts lately are not as good as they normally have been as sometimes they aren't making sense or they have been misspells on there that is why. Either way this week will be a tough week to get things back on the right track for me and also the podcast but I know I can do it if I put my mind to it and that is what is going on with me on this little update blog post.

Why Did Larry I Start The Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast?

           Today's post is why did I decided to start The Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast with Larry? Now as you know Larry wasn't part of CBOTW in 2018 and when him and I decided to do this it was more on a 2 times a year basis and that is what we really wanted to do with The Power Rangers Collaboration Podcast and that is what we have set but you never know what is in stored for 2020 especially. However this do not answer the question why the heck did Larry and I start this and why we enjoy doing this content exclusively on the website alone. First as two individuals who were born in the early 80's/Mid 80's we grew up with Power Rangers and being in our 30's we are just a bunch of nerds behind microphones and talking about a show we love and I thought after this started I thought this wouldn't do very well but it mind blowing to see the views flow right in and like Larry has said to me in the end it is always about the views and you guys seem to enjoy it. The second part I want to say is that we are aiming for the very nearby future to do every single season of the podcast but we are jumping ahead.


              However we enjoy it and as long as him and I enjoy this collaboration Podcast is what matters honestly. Also yes viewers matter and honestly at the start i thought we weren't that entertaining but you guys seem to really enjoy them and trust me we are only a month away from production and by then we will have a brand new studio to record in as right now I am in tornado alley with my studio as it's an appalling mess right now but that is besides the point. I may as well update you I am currently in Lightspeed Rescue and working extremely hard to get it done by December 1st, a month from now and really aiming for December for him and I to record so we can stay on schedule. So I am half way done at this point and getting closer. This is why I work hard I enjoy this kind of content and it seems to do very well, even for the website itself. It goes to show it does extremely well. So you can see with today's post both Larry and I enjoy this even if it is every twice a year with 2 episodes per session with a total of 4 episodes a year, we both sure as heck enjoy the episodes and why we have started this podcast. We are both looking forward to the very near future with this podcast.
