Moms

The following questions were answered by 2nd grade school children:

Why did God make mothers?
1. She’s the only one who knows where the scotch tape is.
2. Mostly to clean the house.
3. To help us out of there when we were getting born

What ingredients are mothers made of?
1. God makes mothers out of clouds and angel hair and everything nice in the world and one dab of mean.
2. They had to get their start from men’s bones. Then they mostly use string, I think

Why did your mom marry your dad?
1. My dad makes the best spaghetti in the world. And my Mom eats a lot.
2. She got too old to do anything else with him.
3. My grandma says that Mom didn’t have her thinking cap on

Who’s the boss at your house?
1. Mom doesn’t want to be boss, but she has to because dad’s such a goof ball.
2. Mom. You can tell by room inspection. She sees the stuff under the bed.
3. I guess Mom is, but only because she has a lot more to do than dad

What does your mom do in her spare time?
1. Mothers don’t do spare time.
2. To hear her tell it, she pays bills all day long

If you could change one thing about your mom, what would it be?
1. She has this weird thing about me keeping my room clean. I’d get rid of that.
2. I’d make my mom smarter. Then she would know it was my sister who did it and not me.
3. I would like for her to get rid of those invisible eyes on the back of her head

The STAR 105.1 Pinheads


Bowling was a hoot......

It's back to Monday and cold weather.....again! The weekend bowling tournament was hilarious!!! The "Star 105.1 Pinheads" along with the other Midwest Family Stations donated $1145 dollars to the Big Brothers and Big Sisters of Southwest Missouri. Our bowling team "ringer" Spencer Robarge who is 7, was fantastic as were listeners Marnie Farmer and Kathy Pinkley- (I don't know how old they are!) Thanks to Century Lanes in Nixa for a great time! Maybe next year you can be part of the fun too!!!
As you know its all about food with Chris and I. This week Chris and I will be heading to Ocean Zen with another listener lunch! If you haven't entered yet just text "Eat" to 68255. Good Luck!!

Have a great week and thanks for listening!

Bowling For Kids' Sake

It should be a very interesting Saturday as Summer and I slip on some slippery shoes and bowl. Now, don't get us wrong...we will be helping out Big Brothers Big Sisters, but we are bad. I mean, really bad. For some strange reason, Summer owns her own ball and shoes, but is a bad bowler. This doesn't make sense to me. If you own any kind of sporting equipment, you should be somewhat proficient in that sport.

I usually bowl better when I've had a couple of adult beverages, but I will probably not go down that road as I usually get louder and more competitive when I do that.

Our ringer is 7-year-old Spencer. This kid's bowling average is 169. Summer has to bowl 9 separate games to get a score like that. Our friend Marnie is also bowling on our team, and she says she is not good either. So it looks like Spencer will be carrying the load for us. I hope he doesn't make fun of how bad we are.

More to come AFTER the bowling is completed. I'm sure there will be a couple of stories that need sharing with you. Have a fabulous weekend.

Carrie Underwood Tickets

Carrie Underwood tickets sold out last week in a few hours. If you're looking for some, here are some potential sites to check out.
CLICK HERE TO LISTEN
This week is "Random Acts of Kindness Week". Its a chance for you to do something nice for someone when it is least expected. Out of the blue this morning Chris and I gave away a four pack of Lawn and Garden tickets for this weekend- we'll continue our Random act's of Kindness for the rest of this week too!
Here is an idea- do one random kindness each day for the rest of the week. Something nice, it could be as little as smiling at someone who is having a bad day or maybe handing over some change for one who is short in the checkout line. Your kindness will spread to others an you never know you might get some "kindness" in return. Something I do know is, that the "kindness" you give makes you feel GREAT!

Enjoy your Day!!!

21 Pieces of Advice

ONE… Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully.

FIVE… When you say, 'I'm sorry,' look the person in the eye.

Daytona 500 on Sunday

We had a great lunch with a BUNCH of listeners and their guests yesterday at Ocean Zen. What a cool way Chris and I get to meet our "friends" each week!
If you haven't yet signed up for FREE lunch from either Mr. Yen's or Ocean Zen its easy to register. Just text the word "EAT" to 68255. Just be aware of the fact that we have over 1300 text entry's and the computer only picks 5 names each week. It may take a while before your number is selected, but once it is, get ready for fun filled laughter lunch in which you can bring a friend. No money needed- Chris and I will take care of the bill and the tip so you can just eat and run if you want. It's just our way of saying "Thank You" for listening! We really do appreciate you!!!!

Interesting Question


Click to ENLARGE

Why, Why, Why?

Taking a couple of days off of work gives you time to catch up. You know what I mean? Things that you have put off, for who knows how long, now get done. For me, most of those things were around the house. And it's caused me to wonder why we do some of the things we do. For example:

Why do we keep running over a piece of string a dozen times with our vacuum cleaner, then reach down...pick it up...examine it...and then put it back down on the floor to give our vacuum one more chance to suck it up?

Why do we constantly go back to the refrigerator with hopes that something new to eat has materialized since we were there last?

And why is it that whenever you try to catch something that is falling off the table, you always manage to knock something else over?

Back to my normal life tomorrow.

Here we go again....

Another round of .......winter. Hurry stock up on the milk, eggs and bread. Chris always makes fun of me for "stocking up". I actually live outside the city limits and a grocery story is miles away- I just like to be prepared. What about you? Do you get staples before a big storm? Food and treats that you just can't bear to be without? Chris's "staples" consists of beer, beer, and pizza rolls!
Stay safe, drive carefully and GO COLTS!!! Happy Superbowl on Sunday!

Stupid Rat Saw His Shadow

Never Regret Anything That Makes You Smile




In The News...

Congratulations to Miss Virgina who won the 2010 Miss American competition over the weekend. Miss Missouri didn't fare too well. Although her talent portion was impressive -- she built a meth lab in under 60 seconds.

And I finally had a chance to watch the Jay Leno/Oprah interview from last Thursday.... It was pretty boring, except of course for the part where Oprah announced that when she retires in 2011 she's giving her show to Conan O'Brien and then taking it back.
