New Year's Eve, More Bad Numbers For OH-bama & A Unique, Morbid, Goulish Gift
Qualifying continues tomorrow morning for Denny's Magic Of Christmas. Nancy Noxon of Fredericksburg was this morning's qualifier. We'll only be taking two more qualifiers this week, so if you're one of them, your chances of winning the grand prize for the week are one-in-four. Not bad! That grand prize is me paying one of your monthly bills, and this week, we're down to either your car payment or mortgage (or rent). Be listening for your chance to call in and win in the eight o'clock hour tomorrow morning.
Come Monday morning, I'm going to be busier than Nancy Pelosi's Botox supplier because we will be getting qualifiers for the final week of Denny"s Magic Of Christmas, but in addition, we will start taking qualifiers for our New Year's Eve contest. You could win a catered party for you and 25 of your friends at your own house, all thanks to the great people at Miller Lite. Not only that, but I'll be there as well, broadcasting live.................yes, FROM YOUR HOUSE!!! How do you qualify? Starting Monday, I'll be asking you to call in with your favorite Miller Lite taste moment, any great story in which Miller Lite was somehow involved. If you're chosen, we'll be bringing the party to your house. Keep listening for details.
For More's Mystery tomorrow, we'll be looking for an actor who originally wanted to be a ballet dancer, and who, in fact, studied ballet for years.
More bad poll numbers for President Barack OH-bama. According to a Public Policy Poll, 44% of Americans would prefer George W. Bush back in office as President Of The United States. That same poll shows 20% of Americans believe OH-bama should be impeached (I have no idea why). But then, those people thought about it and realized that comedian Joe Biden would be next in line for the job, and they said, "Whoop, Never mind. We're good. We're good".
Thanks to our morning news babe, Sheila Quinn for pointing this out to us: Robert G. Heft, who is credited with designing and sewing America's first 50-star flag has died at the age of 67. He made the flag in 1958 to commemorate Alaska and Hawaii joining the union. He spent more than 12 hours sewing the design on his mother's Singer sewing machine. Is this really a big deal? I mean I suspect he pretty much got the idea from looking at the previous 48-star flag and sticking 2 more stars on it.
Finally, if you're looking for a unique holiday gift, CremationSolutions.com might have the answer: The Personal Urn. Send them a couple of pictures of the loved one, and using advanced 3D computer imaging, they will create an exact, life-size replica of the departed's head. It's painted to look amazingly realistic. There's no hair on it, but for an additional cost, the company will provide you with a suitable wig for the finishing touch. A spokesperson for CremationSolutions.com refers to the urn as "a family heirloom that will be cherished for generations."

...and I'm sure it's comforting the way the eyes seem to follow you as you walk around the room.
As usual, I have an idea to improve this product. How about a Chia version!!
Seriously, this really is a great gift because there's so much you can do with it. For instance, around this time of year, you can put it on your porch with a white beard and Santa hat.
