6/30/10-Here's what we talked about this morning:
  • While I enjoy Vodka and I enjoy smoked salmon, I think combining the two would be strange. Someone did.
  • Citing a desire to spend more time with his family, longtime CNN host Larry King is stepping down from his CNN show later in the fall. He announced it on his show last night.
  • Dr. Jeff Corrigan is a family practice specialist who has served the area since 1999. He's now in Plymouth working for Prevea and St. Nicholas Hospital. Dr. Corrigan joined us this morning for a few minutes to talk about his pr, actice.
6/29/10-Here's what we talked about this morning: 6/28/10-Here's what we talked about this morning:
  • The top movie of the weekend was "Toy Story 3." It beat out new movies from Tom Cruise and Adam Sandler.
  • At the Daytime Emmys last night, "As The World Turns" is leaving in style as the show won for both best actor and actress in it's final season. Ellen won for best talk show, Oprah Dr. Oz won for best talk show host and Giada won for best food show. There was also a touching tribute to Dick Clark.
  • A woman who was visiting friends apparently fell out a third story window, landed on the hood of a car, became disoriented (wouldn't you be) and wound up sleeping on a neighbor's couch. No, this isn't an episode of "Friends" or "The Drew Cary Show", this really happened.
6/25/10-Here's what we talked about this morning:
  • We've talked before about the KFC Double Down Sandwich, the sandwich which features two pieces of chicken that serves as the bun. <, A href="http://consumerist.com/2010/06/kfc-doesnt-realize-that-lack-of-bun-is-whole-point-to-double-down.html" target=_blank>Well, that is about to change. KFC has retooled the sandwich to now feature a regular bun and one less piece of chicken. So, now it's become just another chicken sandwich. I thought the point was to have no bun.
  • High on the success of her new sitcom "Hot in Cleveland", the lovely and talented Valerie Bertinelli is doing a pilot for a talk show. I wonder if they have room in their budget for a sidekick.
  • What happens when your fifteen minutes of fame was all used up in the 80's? You do a really wacky movie with snakes and a swamp fight. At least that's what Debbie Gibson and Tiffany are , up to now. Just think, in twenty years they will remake the movie with Kelly Clarkso, n and Taylor Swift.
  • Police in California are in hot pursuit of a man they have nicknamed "The Geezer Bandit", who has robbed a slew of banks in San Diego. He got his nickname because police believe he is in his sixties or seventies.
6/24/10-Here's what we talked about this morning:
  • A Burger King employee in Pennsylvania exchanged words with a customer before the customer called his a less than acceptable name. The employee asked a manager to clock him out, then went to the parking lot and clocked the customer. The employee was arrested for assault, but not on company time.
  • An attorney in Miami set off a metal detector with her underwire bra. So, she retreated to the ladies room and removed it. She was then told it was against the rules to enter the jail sans,bra. You have a right to,an attorney so long as they meet the dress code.

  • The new show "Hot In Cleveland" debuted last night on TV Land starring Betty White and the sultry Valerie Bertinelli (sigh.) Here's a review.
  • Father's day is this Sunday. Are you looking for something for dad in a hurry? Jason at Menard's in Manitowoc says there are lots of cool things there for dad.
6/16/10-Here's what we talked about this morning:
  • A man in Milwaukee is in jail after , his 53rd arrest.
  • Another man in Massachusetts was arrested for attempting to rob a donut shop in April. His defense? The cashier misunderstood him. The man claims he said "I want a honey bun" not "Give me the money, I have a gun." I'm not buying it.
  • What do soccer teams eat during the World Cup. Here's team England's diet.
  • Need care fast? Don't have time to visit the doctor? Try St. Nicholas Hospital Fast Care. We had Sue on this morning and she said that for a variety of services like BP screenings, colds, flu shots, etc., they can get you in and out in a hurry.
