6:12am… Stat of the Day: 47% turn on a TV or radio to keep their pets company when leaving the animals home alone.  Seriously folks… animals don’t CARE if the tv or radio is on… (unless I am on the air).

6:18am… First Funny in the Morning!
POSITIVE THINGS ABOUT THE BAD ECONOMY . . . . . .
· The lines at the Store are shorter.
· All those pennies you saved have a value again.
· No one can afford to send you a fruitcake this year.
· You don’t have to tip as much.

· I can finally afford to buy stocks!
· All the crappy and lazy workers are getting fired.
 

6:33am… Some environmentalists are claiming that soda causes global warming because carbonated beverages release carbon dioxide……
When will these people go away?

6:58am… Seventh-grader Michael Smith got to school in Charlotte, North Carolina this week and there was a big sign at the entrance congratulating him on becoming a spelling bee champ. Misspelled were the word congratulations and his first name.
Wow, unbileevable!

7:04am… Anyone notice the price of gas is creeping up again?  Kind of odd, since the price of a barrel of oil yesterday closed at just over $44.  Hopefully, “speculation” doesn’t take over again.

7:30am… Ice fishing anyone?
Greg Wagner with the Nebraska Game & Parks says BE CAREFUL.

7:47am… The Iraqi reporter who hurled his shoes at President Bush’s head was ordered to appear before a judge yesterday…  In his bare feet!  They are talking about the possibility of locking this guy up for 15 years.  Does that not seem a bit harsh?  No harm, no foul?

8:15am… Today, I killed “What’s Happening in YOUR Town”.  We get 10-15 PLEAS for public service annoucements everyday via email and US Post Office, so I thought, HEY, lets provide an on-air forum that will give folks the chance to get on the air to talk about their non-profit event.

Nope.

We had a couple of days in which folks called, but not ONE call this week.  Odd, really.  If I were in charge of a fundraiser, local event or Christmas program, I JUMP at the opportunity for FREE pubicity… there just isn’t a need to help non-profits, I guess.  OR perhaps folks to take part in non-profit events aren’t REALLY all that committed to making their event a success.  Am I whining? Probably… probably more annoyed.  But it looks to be the truth.

Impossible Question: 40% of women admit they do THIS at times when they are upset.  What is it?  Answer: Throw a shoe.  Winner: Julie French from Meridan, Iowa.
