A Grant For Rikki, A Bomb On The Moon & A Bomb At Arby's

There is a great, no-kill animal sanctuary you've heard me mention on the show several times. It's Rikki's Refuge in Orange. They are currently eligible for a grant from AnimalRescueSite.Com, but they need your help in order to get that grant. The best part is you can help right now, and it'll only take a couple of minutes. The decision as to who gets the grant will be based on voting by people like you and I. The voting process is very simple. Just go on to Rikkisrefuge.org, and then click on the blue button. Obviously, the more people who vote for Rikki's, the better their chances of getting that grant. I've been to Rikki's. They do great work, helping animals and giving them a lifetime home. These are animals that , quite honestly, might otherwise have been euthanized, not because they're sick or injured, but because there just isn't a home for them. As great a job as they do, this grant would be a tremendous boost. Some animal rescue will get the grant. Let's see what we can do to make sure a local sanctuary gets it. You can vote everyday throughout the month of July. Please help.

Jo Dee Messina tickets going out all day tomorrow. Keep it locked in to Thunder.

Happy Birthday today to Brit Hume from Fox News, and resident of Fauquier County.

Brit is 66 today.

In addition, Kris Kristofferson is 73 today.

Big savings at Memorial Park Cemetary in Indianapolis. They're having a big two for one sale. Buy one cemetary plot, get a second one free. General Manager Mark McCronklin says this is a promotion they run every year and it's always a huge success. They even have signs up saying no one will get turned down because of bad credit. So, if you can't afford the cost of living, at least in Indianpolis, they're helping you deal with the cost of dying.

NASA is planning on bombing the moon. The moon is mainly desert. NASA will send up a missile to blow a huge hole into the surface. This will be done for the purpose of finding water. The plan is to analye the space cloud the explosion raises for any traces of water or vapor. The unmanned vessel will be the first U.S. spacecraft to visit the moon since 1999.

All of this should go pretty well. Since 1999, we've had a lot of practice bombing deserts. They going to have to pick the spot they bomb very carefully. When Neil Armstrong first landed on the moon, he put up a plaque, which reads "We came in peace for all mankind". We wouldn't want to bomb that plaque.

The Delaware State Fire Marshall's office is looking for the man who damaged a toilet at Arby's in Talleyville, by setting off fireworks in the bathroom. Authorities say no one was injured, although there were five employees and two other customers in the restaurant at the time. All of those people heard a loud blast from the bathroom. They found a damaged toilet in the bathroom after the man in question left in a brown pick-up truck.

I wonder if they are positive fireworks did this. It might not have been.

I understand this sort of thing happens ALL the time at Taco Bell.
