Too Bad Lyle Lovett's Cousin Isn't The Editor of People Magazine

The Coors Light Song of the Day continues all next week. Stay alert.

Also next week, The Wackster, Penny Wack has a chance for you to win a great mother's Day gift, including lunch, flowers, and a "special" gift from Salono Salono. Keep listening for details.
Here's the "extra clue" for Monday morning's More's Mystery: Aside from being in the music business, he is also a winemaker, a licensed commercial pilot, an aviation mechanic, and last year, he made a live appearance right here in this area.

You might have heard Kristin Nash mention this morning (or was it yesterday morning?) that her mom was a TV news anchor babe for years, and that sometimes she'd come home from work complaining that is was just a slow day news-wise with not a whole lot going on. Then other days, it was a BUSY news day with all kinds of stuff happening. Today, for me there is an abundance of stuff to talk about.

My favorite story this morning: The guy who got beat up in Radio Shack. Oh, yeah, there will definitely be a lawsuit coming out of this one. Leigh Carey went into a Wisconsin Radio Shack to return an item. The employee behind the counter told him he couldn't return it. When Carey asked to see the manager, the employee, whose name wasn't released for some reason, starting punching him......and punching him..................and punching him. Fortunately, another customer called 911 and the police showed up and arrested the employee, but not before he POUNDED Carey. I guess this is what they mean when they say "Radio Shack is your BATTERY headquarters".

Happy Birthday today to Singer Rita Coolidge. She's 64. Judy Collins is 70. Tim McGraw is 42,
and Sonny James, The Southern Gentleman, is 80 today.

I have a great new slogan for the OH-bama administration. Let me explain.Working the hours I do, obviously, I don't get to watch these early morning TV shows. I certainly don't have a problem with that, but I did miss comedian Joe Biden make a buffoon of himself again Thursday on the "Today" show. Apparently, the purpose of him coming on the show was to ease Americans fears over this swine flu thing. He told host Matt Lauer that we shouldn't close the border, even though he admitted that the flu started in Mexico and is worst there. Amazingly, Lauer, usually a left-wing nut, called him out of it, and asked Biden if he would tell his own family members that it was Okay to go to Mexico. Now, mind you, this "Today" show is done live from New York City. Joe admitted that he would tell his family members to not get on a plane, or a subway, or a train, or not to get into any confined space, since the only safe place is an open field. New York Mayor Mike Bloomberg was OUTRAGED, and immediately announced that he would take the subway everyday to show panicked New Yorkers it is safe. The OH-bama administration immediately rushed out a "clarification", saying that what Biden meant was if you're sick, stay home and don't go entering confined places like subways. All of this comes a week after the OH-bama administration thought it would be a good idea to have a 747, along with a fighter jet circle low around lower Manhattan, all for a photo opp.

Lower Manhattan, of course, is where the World Trade Towers were located. Nothing would panic people in that area of the country more than the sight of low-flying commercial aircraft hovering close to the skyscrapers. This prompted another apology from the OH-bama administration. So, here's my suggestion for their new slogan:

THE OH-BAMA ADMINISTRATION: PANICKING NEW YORKERS WEEKLY SINCE APRIL, 2009!!!"

One more quick little OH-bama administration note. Treasurer Secretary Tim Geithner made People Magazine's "Most Beautiful People" List. I've said this before, I'm no Brad Pitt, but come on, Tim Geithner??????? THEN, it came out that Geithner's brother is a People Magazine executive. In case you don't know what Tim Geithner looks like, here's a picture of him. He's the one on the right.

Let's end this today with some science news. Edo Berger, assistant professor of astronomy at Harvard University, says he got an alert last Thursday when a satellite detected a 10-second blast of energy known as a gamma ray burst coming from outer space. When they focused their telescopes on the explosion, they couldn't believe what they were seeing. An enormous star, 100 times larger than our sun, exploding about 13 billion years ago. He said it WAS a big star at one time, but now, it's just a ball of gas. Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.........it WAS a big star........but now, it's just a ball of gas............hmmmmmmm.....
