6:00am…  Martin Luther King, Jr. Day

6:18am… First Funny in the Morning!
Last week we learned that the creator of Spiderman is planning to unveil a GAY superhero comic book. Now, there are those who are saying there needs to be more gay characters on television and in movies.  You remember Brokeback Mountain, right? With that in mind, I’ve come up with some great Gay Cowboy Movie titles:
· The Good, The Bad, and the Stud
· Thigh Noon
· Bobby and Clyde
· When Harry Met Wally
· The Magnificent Sven
· How the West Was Wonderful!
· Bareback in Seattle
· Boynanza

· A Fistful of Fellers

6:30am… It’ll be the Pittsburgh Steelers  and Arizona Cardinals
  in the Super Bowl!

6:47am… Today is: Whisper “I love you” Day. (Just be careful whom you whisper that to.)

6:58am… With the Cardinals in the Super Bowl, there are now just FIVE of the 32 NFL teams that haven’t been to the Super Bowl.  Can you name them? (Saints, Jags, Lions, Browns and Texans)

7:04am… Can’t get a date? Researchers say, chances are, your “requirements” are too high and you’re trying to date out of your league. (Just some friendly advice — try to date your equal.)

7:18am… Guess the Year!
· Khrushchev kills Paris summit conference because of U-2
· Black sit-in at Greensboro, N.C., diner receives national attention.

What year was it? (Answer is below)

7:30am… Crazy days in Washington DC… Tomorrow they expect up to 3-million people in/around the Capital.  Consider at FULL capacity, at any one time, 100,000 people can be riding on the DC transit system in an hour. (30-hour wait IN and out?)  5,000 porta pottys  are being set up for the 3-million people.  How quick does a porta potty fill up? Do the math… (500 people per potty) not pretty.

7:57am… Today in History!
1998…According to a report, fifty percent of all ferret deaths  are caused by the mechanical parts of recling chairs.  (“Boy this chair needs oiling, just listen to it squeak… oh, not wait, it stopped…”)

8:12am… A Chinese couple is seeking a cure for their daughter who has been laughing nonstop for 12 years.  Maybe she thinks a lot of stuff is funny?

8:18am… What ELSE is Happening?
A Stockholm University study found that pedigreed dogs are becoming stupider  because they’re bred for looks instead of brains.

David and Jennifer Swart of Warson Woods, Missouri took their 2-year-old bulldog named Lulu to the vet where an x-ray revealed something interesting about the pooches stomach.  After surgery, the vet had removed 15 pacifiers, a bottle cap and a piece of a basketball. The Swart’s said their 18-month-old daughter’s pacifiers kept disappearing and they just kept buying more. Now they know why.
