LET’S GO PENS!!!

IT’S ALIVE!

Special thanks to  @ Custom Computers in Kingston for bringing my laptop back to life.  It’s been running awfully slow the last few weeks.  My first thought was that I did something stupid and downloaded a virus.  Actually, the hard drive crapped out.  Luckily the guys were able to save all my files (note to self:  BACK THAT THING UP), reinstall, and get it back to me in a few days.

THE ROCKY & SUE SHOW ON ICE

We’re off to shoot a video with Ryan Craig, Captain of the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins today.  The Pens decided to get involved with our Annual Soup Kitchen broadcast in a big way.  You will be hearing more about this cool promotion over the next few days.  Let’s Go Pens!

HANGING WITH THE EX

This was the big topic on today’s show:  Is it ok to hang with the ex without telling your current partner?  Lissa didn’t seem to have a problem with this.  Sue and I disagreed, and most of you said NOOOOOOO!!!!

Here’s a few comments from the KRZ Text Club. (34-2-35)

If she wants to catch up she can do it on the phone

If she wants to see old boyfriend is it ok for him to see his old girlfriend?

If there is nothing sketchy going on with you and your ex you shouldn’t have to hide it from your partner. I am frends with my ex and have gone for drinks with him but my boyfriend knew all about it.

I’m a gay guy and I still hang with my ex-​girlfriend and her boyfriend hates it. I don’t understand it!

I’ve been in a similar situation and even if you don’t have the intentions if it was a serious relationship sometimes the thoughts can fluttter through your head especially if there are drinks involved. Tell your boyfriend what your plans are because if he finds out from someone else or happens to “catch” you I’ts going to make the relationship you have now lose trust and possibly even end it.

When my boyfriend and I first got together I was in a similar situation with my boyfriend now and his ex gf. They still occasionally would talk and go to lunch. He was always honest and told me when they were meeting up. Although I did sometimes get jealous I appreciated that he told me and I expressed I didn’t really like it and he stopped seeing her. If she doesn’t tell her current bf she’s meeting up with him it seems like she’s trying to be sneaky and hide something.

We appreciate you making us a part of your morning routine.

This morning we did Part 3 of “To Catch A Cheater”.  Lissa has a friend that suspects her boyfriend is cheating.  She was going to confront the other woman Saturday, but her plans were snowed out.  Now she is leaning toward forgetting the whole thing and giving her guy another chance.

Have you ever given a cheater a second chance?  Good or bad, what happened after that?

Here’s what out text club members had to say–

I cheated, got caught and she made me deal with it instead of leaving and I’ve never cheated since.  I actually felt someone really cared and made me deal with it.

I cheated during a very bad time in my marriage of course assuming the grass was greener somewhere else. Thankfully my husband forgave me it took some time but we have moved past it. It has been 4 years and I can say this I WILL NEVER CHEAT AGAIN. It’s just not worth ruining your family for. That being said if there are no kids. She should move on.

Don’t cheat. If you’re bored then be a man and end it.

People that cheat do it because they are looking for other people to fill their voids. The more they take the more they take away from who you are. They make you feel worthless. Love yourself and get rid of him!

I think nowadays more and more men cheat. But if he is not emotionally attached to that person and didn’t go looking for it then I do not see why you should not give a second chance.

Cheaters are like spouse abusers. They say they will change and for a while they do but then they go back to their old ways. It’s a sickness. They need help. Get out while you can. You will be better off.

Had a bad marriage went outside looking to get away . Confessed then taken back . Now it is great and we are closer now than ever.  I will never let it get like that again . We both agree that we have lost the trust but I feel I can earn it back. Words mean nothing it’s all in the actions.

Tell your friend dump the piece of crap boyfriend. Remember, “a leopard doesn’t change the color of it’s spots”. He WILL cheat again.

When you forgive you pretty much say “Walk over me I’m not worth much” it’s the same as if you were being abused once he cheats and you forgive he will just keep on doing it because he doesn’t learn.

My husband cheated on an extended business trip, and I took him back because of our newborn. To my knowledge he’s never done it again, but I definitely keep my guard up, which has made me less tolerant and bitchy.

Don’t take him back. If he cheated he doesn’t care enough about her feelings or her. He’s not worth it.

I cheated, my husband gave me a second chance, and we are now happier than we ever have been. The experience made me appreciate what a great man my husband is!

I took him back and he ended up getting engaged to the other one and is now married, expecting a child and STILL calls me. Scumbag.

I gave my ex gf a 3rd chance and she still cheated! What a waste of 5 years of my life. You can’t trust anyone like that

I was the cheater. I had a one nighter shortly after we started dating, he gave me a 2nd chance and 4 years later we are happily married with 2 kids.

This is the weekend for our annual Ghost Hunt.  We’ve hosted a bunch of these over the years but this one has the potential to be the best ever!

Our destination is a 100+ year old house in Waymart.  The owner has called us a few times over the last few weeks describing the strange goings on–windows have been busted FROM THE INSIDE, pictures have fallen and the entire family has heard voices.

The investigation begins with the following words from our friend Kevin of the Central PA Paranormal Research Association: 

                           “We’re going hot!”

That means all cameras, digital recorders and camcorders should be turned on.

We’ll have a full account of our latest paranormal investigation Monday morning.

Happy hunting…

Wow, Halloween is quickly passing Christmas in the outrageous light display department.

Check out this house that synched their lights with “Party Rock Anthem”.

How would you like to be their neighbor?

Last week we spent some time on the air talking about Lissa’s friend that suspects her boyfriend is cheating on her.  The friend has decided to confront the other woman.

Personally, I think this is a dumb idea.  What is to be gained by calling the other woman out?  Does it make any difference if the guy cheated once, or if this has been going on for a year?

Lots of you disagreed.

Here’s just some of the texts we got on this hot topic:  Confronting the other woman…good or bad idea?

~Rock

Absolutely not -​ just walk away its not worth the energy or emotion. Once a cheater always a cheater.

I confronted the girl. It ended in hospital visits.

I met the other woman for coffee because I had a feeling she didn’t know…she didn’t..he was playing both of us…divorced now and she kicked him to the curb.

She should talk to her because maybe she doesnt know and she will dump his cheating ass too.

I would confront the other women! What if she really has no idea, if I was the other woman and had no idea I would want to be confronted!

If she does do it, don’t tell the other woman she is his girlfriend until she gets her info.

Let it go. Move on.

As someone who has been on the receiving end of the cheater, I also wanted details. All I did was torture myself emotionally. I found myself wondering why he wanted her instead of me. Years later he told me it had nothing to do with me, it was his insecure nature. I think she knows all she needs to know.

In the state of PA it is illegal to record someone without their consent i would not advise your friend to record this man.

If they are married then approach the husband, if just dating LEAVE him ALONE. Drop him like it’s hot.

If your friend can remain calm, then it’s a great idea but if she even has the slightest thought that she will lose it, then don’t do it. I agree to more info before she approaches her.

I did confront the other woman and it didn’t make me feel any better. In fact it made me feel a thousand times worse.

I’d ask the girl! You will most likely to get the true story from her, cause he’s not going admit anything…and I’d want to know details.

My husband cheated on me and I found out who it was. I contacted her and I was nice to her as much as it killed me, because u can catch more flies with honey. well she sang like a bird and it turns out he was lying to us both. He is with her now and I have the satisfaction of lmao because he is miserable!

I have confronted the other girl. she didnt know he had a gf. we both confronted him. he walked away with no gf!

I feel where your friend is coming from BUT if it’s over just let it be. It is what it is! Finding out details will only make it harder to get over the situation.

I did confront the other woman because she used to be one of my best friends and she lied to my face about it.

If that was me I’d absolutely ask the other girl details so when I broke up with him I could throw it all in his face. Use it as ammunition.

Absolutely confront her!  Not to fight but to be your own personal satisfaction. May show him that she, his girlfriend , is not a pushover.

Do NOT let her confront the girl. My last relationship ended because he cheated. I too wanted answers and it was worse knowing than if I would have just let it go. Karma had a way of giving him what he deserves.

Let it go. He cheated for a reason so why start trouble? Would u want him back? Of course not.

This Saturday night is our annual Ghost Hunt.  Earlier today I received a message from Crystal, the owner of the house where our investigation will be taking place.  She relayed the conversation she had today with Kevin from the Central PA Paranormal Research Association and his psychic partner Jo.  Here’s the message–

Today I talked to Kevin and his psychic. To say that we were all excited (and very creeped out) would be an understatement!!!

I was giving Kevin some info on the house and out of nowhere the psychic that was with him started telling me things that there is no possible way they could have known. Even I had to think about some of it for a minute.

She (psychic) said that there’s a room that no one can get to…the attic. She saw it, not me. She also talked to both my Grandmother and I believe both of my great Grandmothers. She saw the dog that my great Grandmother had and said that it is still with her, which explains what my dog is playing with. She also told me what my dog looks like. She saw my daughter and told me things that there’s no way for her to have known about!

My Grandmother gave her messages to pass to me.  At the time this started I got a bad chill. I asked if she was sitting next to me and the psychic said yes. My great Grandmother was Catholic and made some sort of bread in a basket that was only given at holidays or in time of need, she presented to the psychic with the basket.

All of us, my husband, Kevin, myself and the psychic were all saying holy s*&$! This went on for a good half hour before they ‘left’. They also saw a male clock maker which would have been my great-great Grandfather. She saw the Indian burial grounds and even the horses on the property that are now buried (remember how long this property has been here, that’s what they used to do). They knew about the scratching on the walls (you can’t paint here) and said that it would continue to happen and may get worse.

Today both me and my husband’s phone, after this call, will not hold a charge, even though mine is plugged in it keeps shutting off and saying “good bye”.

They said there was a murder here, so I am investigating that. According to Kevin and the psychic this does not happen much if at all. So to say that the 29th will be interesting is quite the understatement!!!

They didn’t even have to be here for them to see them!!! They also know that there are multiple people here. I have decided to wear a diaper that night as I am sure that I am going to crap myself!

One last thing. I was on the phone with Kevin who was relaying messages between me and the psychic. At one point the psychic was talking to my Grandmother, I told Kevin “I’m going to cry” and the psychic repeated the same sentence from the other side. How to explain this is beyond me….. but for we are now looking for a new house and we in the meantime are probably staying at a hotel!!!!

Crystal

We were talking about Lindsay Lohan showing up late for her first day of morgue duty.  This comes just a day after she got a nice tongue lashing from an LA judge that revoked her probation.

“I’m sorry for the confusion that I may of caused to those at the Coroner’s office. Won’t happen again, now I know where to go!” Lohan apologetically tweeted Thursday.

When is Lindsay going to learn?  And how many second chances is this girl going to get?  You committed the crime, now do the time.

That was the gist of what we said on the air.

And then one of our listeners responded with this text–

I am sorry but I am growing tired of people bashing Lindsay Lohan. She is someone’s daughter and even if she is a star she needs our help and support. What if it was Rocky’s son?  Would you make fun of him or try to help?

Ok, we may have made fun of her makeup a bit, but she made herself an easy target.  If that’s bashing, so be it.

But let’s be real people.  It’s time for some tough love.  When was the last time someone said “No!” to Lindsay?  I’m thinking the word doesn’t exist in her world.

If it WAS my son, sure I’d be there to support him…IN THE BEGINNING.  But if things ever got to this point, I’d tell the judge to haul him off to County lockup.  I would love him just the same but would still want him to learn from his mistake and then get on with his life.
