It's was a very nice weekend. Rae and I met some friends for dinner Friday night at the Olde Towne Steak & Seafood Restaurant downtown on Caroline Street. It was out first time there. WOW! The place is great. In fact, honestly, maybe the best I've been to in the area so far.
On Saturday morning, after I got off the air, I shot over to the Spotsylvania Towne Center for the 5th Annual Healthy Kids Day. I hope you were among the people who visited our table and spun our prize wheel.
Yesterday, Rae and I put the top down and cruised to Lake Anna State Park. The weather was great. The park is beautiful..............great weekend!
Congratulations to Carrie Underwood named Entertainer of the Year last night at the Academy of Country Music Awards in Vegas.
Joining me tomorrow morning will be Bob Alexander, CEO of Pratt Medical, and Chairman of the March of Dimes, March For Babies happening this Saturday. We'll talk about the March For Babies and maybe we'll put Bob through the More's Mystery test, or better yet, maybe we'll pit one of you against Bob in a trivia contest.
OK, in medical news, good news for kleptomaniacal shoplifters. Writing in the Journal of Biological Psychiatry, Dr. Jon Grant of the University of Minnesota says in some cases, shoplifters don't steal because they actually NEED the item, but they steal because shoplifting is a compulsion, much like gambling, alcoholism or drug addiction. The good news is the doctor says there is a drug called Naltrexone, which helps to curb the urge to steal among compulsive shoplifters. The bad news is the pills keep disappearing off store shelves.
The OH-bama administration has launched a website for people who are feeling depressed and emotionally distressed because of the economy. The problem is I can't find it. I don't know what the website address is. I have searched and searched and can't find it. There's plenty of information on it, but I can't find the website itself. For those of you who haven't had to sell your computer to buy food, if you come across this government-run website, please pass it along to me at DennyMore@thunder1045.com . I even tried guessing at what the website address might be. I tried www.iwassoanxioustoshowhowangryiwasatgeorgebushthativotedfor aninexperiencedsocialistbutimstartingtothinkimadeamistake.com, but nothing showed up.
Finally, it's the book we've all been waiting for. Bob Barker has a "tell-all" book coming out. Is this really necessary? In the book, we'll find out more information then we really needed or wanted. For instance, at one point in his career, Barker was offered a role in a porno movie. After long and careful consideration, he decided to decline the offer, but instead resorted to doing something even MORE disgusting............
