WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE WITH YOUR LATTE
I could go with the obvious joke here, but I'll just report the story... Donald Crabtree wants to open a topless coffee shop in Vassalboro, VT. As you can imagine that's created quite a stir so the city council will review the request for the erotic java place. I'm betting you won't be able to get a double mocha there anytime soon..

THAT'S A LOT OF BREAD
Mexicans celebrated the 3 Wise Men visiting the baby JKesus yesterday with a family celebration that included the devouring of a huge loaf of bread. 11 tons worth! 2000,000 shared in the bread made by 2300 bakers. What's it take to make a loaf that large? In all, the sweet bread used seven tons of flour, 3.3 tons of butter and 396 gallons of milk.

I HIGHLY recommend these SONY headphones. Great quality and affordable!!

I'M GOING TO SCHOOL
A 6 year old RIchmond, VA. boy missed his school bus, but was determined to make it to school, so he did what any kid would do. Took the family car and started driving his way for an education. He ran into an embankment and telephone car but wasn't deterred. "He was very intent on getting to school," said Sheriff Chuck Wilkins. "When he got out of the car, he started walking to school. He did not want to miss breakfast and PE." The boy took the keys to the car while Mom was asleep. His parents have been charged with child endangerment.

USELESS TRIVIA

As is their custom, the natives of the Turkish village of Kuskoy communicate through whistling. This unique language allows the Kuskovians to communicate over distances of up to one mile.


By the end of the Civil War, between one-third and one-half of all U.S. paper currency in circulation was counterfeit. This served as the catalyst behind the creation of the U.S. Secret Service. On July 5, 1865, the Secret Service was created under the U.S. Treasury Department. In less than a decade, counterfeiting was sharply reduced.


At the Monterey Bay Aquarium in California, pumps push more than 2,000 gallons of sea water a minute through jets placed to generate natural currents in the aquarium's kelp forest exhibit.


The average house is five times less likely to burn down than become infested with termites.


A mythomaniac is a compulsive liar.

Radio Stories

Greetings to all of my Radio Friends…. A message from Michael Stone:
(today's show prep below)

As those who know me are well aware, I am always looking for a new creative outlet. With that being said, I am beginning a new project and I would like to enlist your help.

After 36 plus years in this business I am beginning to archive my strange, unusual and touching stories of the interactions and behind the scenes adventures that are unique to our quirky business.

My hope is to publish my own reminiscences as a book, play, screen play.. Who knows!

In that effort to recruit you in my personal quest, I have set up page on my show prep site. http://audioprosprep.blogspot.com/2009/01/radio-stories.html

Through the comment function on that page I would appreciate your stories, funny or touching, that demonstrate what is unique and special about our profession that course through our veins. You can also email them to me directly though I would love to have them LIVE on the web for all to peruse and share.

You can leave your full name, initials, or just remain anonymous.

So what do YOU get out of this? My undying gratitude! (sic) OK a mention in credits is all I can offer. Are you game?

If so, please visit http://audioprosprep.blogspot.com/2009/01/radio-stories.html and share your experiences with the world.

Feel free to pass this link
http://audioprosprep.blogspot.com/2009/01/radio-stories.html and email to any of your like minded radio friends.

Thanks for your help in advance…..

All the best in all your endeavours!

AREN'T YOU A LITTLE YOUNG TO BE MARRIED
A German couple wanted to get married so badly that they decided to elope to Africa. The childhood sweethearts "were determined to tie the knot under the African sun after seeing a nature documentary together." Mika and Anna-Lena accompanied by the would-be bride's seven-year-old sister, packed their bags with swimsuits and sunglasses and set off for the airport. The trio was spotted by a suspicious guard who contacted at authorities. The trio was convinced to return home after being told that they would have trouble getting to Africa without money or plane tickets and because they were FIVE, SIX and SEVEN years old! They came up with the idea after seeing a travel show on TV New Years Day.

TRUE LOVE RENEWED YEARLY
Margaret and John Beauvoisin, got married in 1948. The Hamshire, England couple have renewed their vows annually since 1950. That's 58 going on 59 years for those doing the math. The couple missed one year, 1949 because John was stationed in Bermuda with the Royal Navy. Margaret said: "It reinforces our promise to love and care for one another. We are still very much in love. I'm a terrible housewife but John puts up with that and keeps on loving me."

GUNS DON'T SHOOT PEOPLE- PEOPLE SHOOT PEOPLE
This is scary. A 4 year old boy in Jackson, OH. was upset that his 18 year old baby sitter accidently stepped on his foot and promptly went to a closet grabbing a shot gun from the closet in his home shotting the babysitter, who had to be hospitalized with, fortunately minor injuries to an arm and her side. There were also other children and teenagers in the home at the time. No charge for though the child, though I think we may see something pending against the parents who left a gun within reach of a 4 year old.

THE DREADED IRS LETTER
James Howarth is an attorney in Detroit. He got a letter from the IRS warning him to pay on his back taxes "to avoid additional penalty and/or interest." The bill for for 5 CENTS! He was then a little confused when he also received a letter from the IRS telling him they owed him money. FOUR CENTS! But since it was less than a dollar he would have to request the refund be sent to him. "When I owe them a nickel, I must pay them. It's not optional," he said. "But when they owe me, I have to ask for it." And don't even get ME started on the cost of the postage for a few pennies here and there. Government in action. The IRS says they don't comment on individual cases!

AND NOW....... SOME ALTERNATIVE AFFIRMATIONS FOR THE NEW YEAR!!
1. As I let go of my feelings of guilt, I am in touch with my inner sociopath.

2. I have the power to channel my imagination into ever-soaring levels of suspicion and paranoia.

3. I assume full responsibility for my actions, except the ones that are someone else's fault.

4. In some cultures what I do would be considered normal.

5. My intuition nearly makes up for my lack of wisdom and judgment.

6. I need not suffer in silence while I can still moan, whimper, and complain.

7. When someone hurts me, I know that forgiveness is cheaper than a lawsuit, but not nearly as rewarding.

8. I am at one with my duality.

9. Blessed are the flexible, for they can tie themselves in knots.

10. I will strive to live each day as if it were my 50th birthday.

11. I honor and express all facets of my being, regardless of state and local laws.

12. Today I will gladly share my experience and advice, for there are no sweeter words than "I told you so!"

13. A scapegoat is almost as good as a solution.

14. Just for today, I will not sit in my living room all day in my underwear. Instead, I will move my computer into the bedroom.

15. I will no longer waste my time reliving the past; I will spend it worrying about the future?

16. The complete lack of evidence is the surest proof that the conspiracy is working.

17. Before I criticize a man, I walk a mile in his shoes. That way, if he gets angry, he's a mile away and barefoot.
