MIND YOUR P's & Q's AND EXCLAMATION POINTS!
The excitement must have been palpable. The sudden death was under way in Minot, North Dakota. Kevin Taylor and Beth Brivik, facing off in the texting competition for $1000. They had to text this message. "I hope I win the grand prize of $1,000 so I can buy a new phone. Whoo!". The quickest wins the cash. And they're off! But even though Mr. Taylor finished first and slammed down his phone, he'd forgotten one thing! It was The exclamation point!!!!!!! He had to settle for the $200 second prize. (You know the Minot slogan right? Why No, Minot-Freezins the reason!)

IS IT GUILT OR STUPIDITY
German police aren't quite sure what to make of a Liverpool man who came up to the cashier at a supermarket with a bag food and toilet paper underneath his arm, and handed her a note that said; "I've stolen, call the police". For whatever reason the shoplifter also gave his contact info. Police showed up and the man explained it was a cash flow thing that caused him to cross the ciminiality line.

Many people are wary of the money thinking they are fake bills. They're not.

THE FIVE SECOND RULEUrban myth or just kidding? You've heard people talk about the 5 second rule. Picking up food quickly if it drops on the floor makes it OK to eat. Researchers tell SELF magazine that food dropped on a contaminated floor picked up 10,000 bacteria. Food left on the floor for one minute had TEN TIMES the bacteria than that grabbed quickly.

STUPID BANK ROBBERS
Try to follow me on this one. Five Chinese men worked at a bank in the vault. They slowly started embezzling millions. Then they figured they'd cover their tracks by playing the lottery and winning back what they stole and then some, so they could replace the stolen funds unbeknownst to anyone. They thought that by buying millions of yuan in tickets they would eventually win back enough to replace the missing funds, which they did with some of the money, but greed took over. Didn't work. Trial has resumed.

The term spaghetti Western originated during the 1960's. Moviemakers made low-budget films in Italy because it was cheaper to do so there than in the U. S. Upon completion of a movie, English was dubbed in for the Italian actors. Struggling actor Clint Eastwood had left Hollywood for a few years and made his early Westerns in Italy with director Sergio Leone, to whom the term spaghetti Western is attributed. The collaboration of Eastwood and Leone included the hit film The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly (1966)

JULY IS NATIONAL ICE CREAM MONTH
Ithaca, N. Y., and Two Rivers, Wisconsin, are embroiled in a raging debate over which town can claim sundae fame. Two Rivers says a local soda shop owner in their town was the first to drizzle chocolate over ice cream, back in 1881. Ithaca residents have dug up information discounting the validity of the dates, and claim a pastor in their town was the first to have concocted a sundae, in 1891. Evanston, Illinois can at least claim credit for the spelling. It seems that town was the first to spell the treat sundae versus sunday.

SAVED BY SPIDERS
Arachnaphobe, Danielle Vigue, 18 is convinced that spiders saved her and her family from a fire in their house. She awoke to find the arachnids gathered around a light fixture. She got to killling them and then leaving the room to sleep with her 15 year old sister. The spiders were apparently smoked out by an attic fire. Everyone got out OK. She says she'll never kill another spider again.

WHAT DID YOU MEAN BY THAT?
We think a little anger management is in order here. 5 Anchorage Alaska men got into a brawl after Raymond Keith McWain, 26, noticed a man gesturing in a truck beside him on the road. He thought the man was gesturing at him in a disrespectful manner, when in fact the man was deaf and talking to the other men in the truck in sign language. One gesture leads to another, leading to a brawl in a parking lot. Gunshots were even fired. One man was injured, one arrested. All over a mis-understanding.

YOUR STILL STUPID CRIMINALS
Five inmates in Oklahoma City, Russell Dean Landers, Clayton Heath Albers, Carl Ervin Batts and Barry Dean Bischof copywrighted their names, then demanded millions after filing liens on the warden's property. They even went as far as hiring a repo man to enforce the liens. Instead of a repo man, the inmates hired an undercover F-B-I agent to seize his vehicles, freeze his bank accounts and change the locks on his house. OOPS! Can you say extortion?

THAT BICYCLE SEAT HURTS
Nearly 60 people pedaled in Seattle's annual Naked Bike Ride. Police had warned them they'd be arrested if anyone complained, which a 12 year old girl did. 3 were arrested including one woman painted with tiger stripes. They said their ride is to raise awareness about pollution and the beauty of the human body.the beauty of the human body.

RUNNING OF THE KID
A Spanish father has had his visitation rights revoked after Spanish TV showed he and his 10 year old son, running with the bulls in Pamplona. The boy's father was fined 200 dollars last week. According to city regulations, runners in the festival must be 18 years old. It also angered the man's ex-wife, who took her case to the police after she saw the footage.

CAN YOU BLAME HIM
Neighbors of a German man were shocked when a computer came flying out of a window in the middle of the night. Police were called, but didn't arrest the man who was frustrated with the pesky machine. He didn't even get a ticket either because they said, "who hasn't felt like doing that?"

THE CLAWS ARE BARED
Hemingway loved six toed cats. The U.S. government and Florida's Ernest Hemingway Home & Museum are scratching it out over the fate of dozens of felines roaming the former home of the Nobel Prize-winning author. The U.S. Department of Agriculture said the museum is subject to federal regulations because it promotes the cats online, exhibits them during paid tours, uses them in advertisements and markets them on souvenirs. It plans to send veterinarian Terry Curtis, an animal behaviorist from the University of Florida -- already dubbed the "cat whispurrer" by locals -- to observe the cats' mental state and physical condition

FIGHT GLOBAL WARMING
Take your clothes off. Or at least your ties. That's the recommendation of the Itlain Health Ministry: "Taking your tie off immediately lowers the body temperature by 2 to 3 degrees Celsius," the ministry said in a statement. "Allowing a more sensible use of air conditioning that yields electricity savings and protects the environment."

LISTENING CAN BE DANGEROUS
I-Pod listeners should be careful when a thunderstorm breaks out. A Canadian jogger suffered chest and neck burns, ruptured ear-drums and a broken jaw when lightning traveled through his music player's wires. Last summer, a Colorado teen ended up with similar injuries when lightning struck nearby as he was listening to his iPod while mowing the lawn. Tjhere are also reports involving laptops and cell phones during thunderstorms.

I'VE GOT A BOMB! I'VE GOT A BOMB! I'VE GOT A BOMB!
Canadians who have been holding their tongues until now can go ahead and use the "bomb" word in airports. They will no longer automatically be a arrested. From now on only be arrested if it is clear they are making a serious threat, officials said on Wednesday. Well That's The Bomb is you ask us!

THE HISTORY OF UNDERWEAR
Fruit Of The Loom must be so proud. The International Medieval Congress is meeting right now in England and you probably didn't know, but UNDERWEAR led to literacy. At least that's the point of view expressed there. During Medieval times peasants went au natural, until they started moving into towns and cities. Underwaerless people were frowned upon which led to a boom in the undie market. Those discarded undies became rags, which then was used to make paper, which was then used to print books, thus literacy. (Ya still with us?) Bethcha didn't know that eh?

IT'S FRIDAY THE 13th (fear of=paraskevidekatriaphobia)

1. According to Smithsonian Magazine “fear of the #13 costs American a billion dollars per year in absenteeism, train and plane cancellations, and reduced commerce on the 13th of the month.”
2. Fear of Friday the 13th dates back to Nordic Mythology. Many of their thirteenth Gods met with violent deaths, such as Loki, the trickster.
3. Ancient Romans regarded the number 13 as a symbol of death, destruction and misfortune.
4. Lizzy Borden uttered a total of 13 words at her trial.
5. A witches coven consists of 13 members.
6. Tarot Card number 13 is the Death Card, depicting the Grim Reaper (although it is read as transition or change and not literal death).
7. Hotels rarely have a room number 13. Usually it is called 12a or 14. Same with floors of high rise buildings. Many elevators are without a #13 button. Highways sometimes will skip exit 13 altogether also.
8. There are 13 steps leading to the gallows.
9. There are 13 knots in a hangman’s noose.
10. The blade of a guillotine falls 13 feet.
11. The driver of Princess Diana hit pillar #13 at Place de l’Alma when she was killed in Paris, France.
12. Certain ocean liners will be held in dock until after midnight to appease passenger’s fears on Friday the 13th.
13. Apollo 13, the 13th mission launched from pad #39 (13 x 3), the mission was aborted after an explosion occurred in the fuel cell of their service module. The rocket had left launching pad at 13:13 CST and the date was April 13th.

FRIDAY THE 13th PROTECTIONS:

1.Walk around your house 13 times on Friday the 13th.
2.Hang your shoes out the window. (My guess is the smell will drive all the evil away!)
3.Sleep with a mirror under your pillow for the first 3 Fridays before Friday the 13th comes. You are suppose to dream of your true love on Friday the 13th then also.

SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS

Birds of a feather flock together and crap on your car.

A penny saved is a government oversight.

The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing at the right time, but also to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.

The older you get, the tougher it is to lose weight, because by then your body and your fat have gotten to be really good friends.

The easiest way to find something lost around the house is to buy a replacement

He who hesitates is probably right.

Did you ever notice: The Roman Numerals for forty (40) are " XL."

If you think there is good in everybody, you haven't met everybody.

If you can smile when things go wrong, you have someone in mind to blame.

The sole purpose of a child's middle name is so he can tell when he's really in trouble.

There's always a lot to be thankful for if you take time to look for it. For example I am sitting here thinking how nice it is that wrinkles don't hurt

Did you ever notice: When you put the 2 words "The" and "IRS" together it spells "Theirs!"

AudioPros-Thanks

From Michael Stone

Hello and thanks for visiting AudioPros.com Free Show Prep. I hope you're enjoying our free daily (weekdays) show prep for radio.

I've been asked, why are you doing this, and for FREE? Well actually there are two answers.

First; I do show prep for my radio show everyday. Why not share? I've been doing mornings for over 35 years.
Second, it is my hope to provide this service and interest people in my AudioPros.com audio business and our sponsors services and products.

So, yes there is financial incentive. If not, it would be downright un-American!

By visiting our sponsors and occasionally purchasing a set of headphones or book on radio in our radio store, or investigating voice over opportunities for yourself, you help support this site and the efforts that go into providing you with a great free service to augment the prep you already do for your daily shows.

All the best!

This is an archeologist's nightmare. Villagers in China found some

ground up the bones into a power and turned them into a fine soup. The

villagers used them for medicinal purposes thinking they came from

Flying Dragons.

At least he is in Poland where he backed Solidarity back in the 80's.

he now is a bit of a celebrity with his own branded Monsignore Winer now

he's launching perfumes, clothing and cafes branded with his image.

He's also raised some eyebrows when he said he would be involved in
