And it is not from any war or speculation. Well, not this time anyway.

Evidentally all the oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico closed down production and everybody went home because of Ike coming onshore this weekend. Right now gas on the west side of Michigan is 3.88, but they said it will probably go up approximately 50-75 cents a gallon. It hasn't happened yet, but then it is only 12:30 in the afternoon here.

I just heard it on the radio this morning too. nm

Morning Radio
In the U.S., this is the most stolen over the counter medication.

Name it.

On 1 Atlanta radio station this morning...sm
they were begging listeners that if anyone out there actually voted for this guy to please call them and explain why.  They couldn't get anyone to call in other than folks saying that they are wondering if people are voting for this kid to annoy  Simon. 
Not sure if you all know who Rick and Bubba are of morning radio but sm

there's been a terrible tragedy and you can read about it here. Please pray for the family. Thanks!

I just heard a poll on the radio the other day
that said Blazing Saddles was the all time #1 guy movie. When Harry met Sally won for all time #1 chick flick. I liked B-S when I was younger but don't think I would want to sit through it now.
Well, I saw on MSNBC and heard on the radio today that sm
the Grammy's had one of the lowest ratings ever since they began. It said that they are totally out of touch with main-stream America and that the Grammy's doesn't represent most Americans. I thought the Grammy's were a joke, to be honest. It's ridiculous. They are so out of touch with reality it isn't even funny. No one can relate to any of the stars - they can just look up to them and say things like, "Oh wow! I wish I looked like that in short black shorts and had fake blonde hair with a wonderful voice!" Only in my dreams (Carrie Underwood). and the list goes on.

No, I am not jealous. I could really care less. My point I am making is that it's not reality. It's just about who is wearing what, who won what, and it's not even what anyone except Hollywood even cares about. They shouldn't even showcase the Grammy's but show it local in CA and NY, because it's all for them anyway.
I've been running around all day - heard a bit on the radio, but 9 DEAD? Oh goodness. Lord,
help those families right now, God. And that entire city. I used to live there. Can't recall that mall, though. I used to go to 2. If anyone is in that area, I used to live in Bellevue (the Air Force Base there). Where was this mall in Omaha? thanks for any info.
I was hoping I heard wrong this morning.

I was watching The View where they were showing some previews of the interview with Ryan that is going to air tomorrow night and near the end of the show, Barbara W. stated it would be a tribute to her.


It was the same at our school with the boys and the pictures and girls with the hairdo. Nothing like being an individual back then.


What's even sadder is that she finally said yes to getting married.


Radio DJ...

Radio here said the first ones sent out were
ones to people that electronically filed. Paper filing would take longer.
I've heard of tops and also heard it is a good group.

Have you tried Radio Shack?
NM
Which one? The lawyer or radio DJ..nm

I leave the radio on for them
We go away about once a month for a few days to visit my husband's mother who lives out of state, about a 4 hour drive away, and I always leave the radio on for our 3 cats just to sort of keep them company.
did you try Radio Shack? nm

The talk radio guy she is referring to
is very adamant about telling people to do their own research before making up their mind about anything. He does his show mostly for entertainment purposes - he is certainly not saying that everything that comes out of his mouth is gospel. He has his show so he can give his opinion - what the heck would he talk about for hours if he did not talk about his opinion?

But that's just my opinion, lol.
He made some kind of radio ...
for years, and he had cancer himself. He was retired and went to retirement place and couldn't sleep and he got up and started working on it. He thought that if you could get those small metal particles to inject them in person, and put the radio waves to them, then they could eat up the cancer. I thought it made sense, but didn't catch it all.
Love=dysfunction on the radio

Its not just the dating services.  Did you ever notice how most popular songs are full of needy, dysfunctional phrases like "I'm nothing without you", "you give my life meaning", "I've been paralyzed and depressed since you left me", "I just can't let you go", etc.  Then we wonder why so many people turn into stalkers and restraining orders are needed when both people don't feel the same way.


Like him too, he is the main reason I got Sirius radio....

my husband doesn't like him, but does not have to listen. I too like the fact that he is not PC, and when he has on something I don't like, I change the station, that simple.


 


Cool! He sounds like a radio trying to tune in

I think it's a crock. Either talk radio or nasty

And TV or radio dont mention fog 2 miles away?

One year 2 of our local radio stations, a
hard rock and the country music stations, switched studios and were broadcasting on each other's frequencies.
I miss free XM radio on AOL, but figured that
nm
Radio show host Mike Gallagher...
offered them airtime on his show if they would call off the protest for the VT person's funeral and they agreed. The article I read said this radio host did the same thing when he heard they were going to protest the Amish school shooting funeral. All this Phelps retard wants is to get his "message" out there and so I guess he's going to use the radio to do it now, instead of the funeral.
I was 18 and driving my Mustang on Main St. listening to the radio.

These things called batteries...they power your radio. nm

It's been on the radio. Apparently the main source is TMZ, nothing official yet. nm

podcasts are like radio shows that you can carry with you and listen to at any time.
You can find them easily on iTunes. There's a link to their podcasts somewhere on the left side of the page. You can search podcasts for subjects that interest you. There are also video podcasts, if you have a video iPod. One of my favorites is The Rest of Everest. It's a weekly video show about climbing Mt. Everest.
You can also listen to podcasts right on your computer, so you don't need to download to your iPod, but it's nice to do that. There are podcasts about every topic you can imagine! Search "crafts", and you'll find something. There are lots of travel podcasts, sports, business, you name it. Some are very highly produced, others are kind of basic. Some are put out by professional broadcasting companies, too. PBS puts out tons, and I like to listen to Garrison Keillor's "News From Lake Wobegon" every week, too.
That's probably more than you needed to know!
My morning

My 9-year-old son was late for school and had to run upstairs and get his homework.  He was running down the stairs, which he has been told a million times not to, when he slipped on the carpeted steps and proceeded to glide down about ten stairs.  I heard the ruckus and went running towards the sound of disaster.  There lay my son in a heap on the ground holding his side and moaning as loud as he possibly could.  I kept asking what happened and my daughter was more than happy to give me the play by play (with every adjective possible), but her words were muffled under the sounds of his moans.  I thought he must of hit the banister, as he was holding his side in the fetal position, but no one could actually hear my questions over my daughter’s story and his moans, so as loud as I could I bellowed, “What did you hit?”  All of a sudden, my daughter’s rendition stopped, as well as my son’s loud moaning, and all got quiet.  My son looked up at me and very seriously, with a look of utter disgust, said, “The ground!”  In a little under 2 seconds I realized what a silly question that was, but what a great answer!!!  I have just chuckled over this all morning and thought I would share it with all the mothers out there!


 


P.S.  He is absolutely fine, thankfully, and I do believe making his mother feel like a dimwit was the cure-all!!!! 


She ate a little this morning sm
I got her to eat this morning when I handfed her (which made me late to start working but I figured what the heck).  Then I thought I would try the cream cheese trick and she took it in her mouth but dropped it and then got mad at me and ran away then tried to pee on the entertainment center.  *smile*  But no pee came out - so she was either just showing her displeasure or has no pee (which isn't good).  Anyway, that is the update so far today.  Thanks you all for your support. 
Morning, oh most definitely morning!

I'm one of those tools that's always chipper in the morning doing the ol' "daylight's a' burnin" thing and annoying the heck out of the partying folk who don't get started until noontime. 



Definitely morning...
I start at 5 a.m., take a break from 6:30-7:40 to get the kids up, ready and off to school, then work until I get finished for the day, usualy in time to watch GH before I have to go pick up the kids, but sometimes not!
It was on GMA this morning...
?
How many of us are up this morning? (sm)
It's 4:45 am!
I know!! I saw that this morning!!!! Wow, how sad is that??? nm
x
Thanks, this morning it was gone sm
didn't look like any disturbance in the area but I wish I could have known 100% for sure that the bunny is back home!! I think he or she is, but wish I knew for sure.
GMA this morning...sm
Did anyone catch Boyz II Men on GMA this morning?  They were great!  Did the oldie *I'll Be There*, sorry don't know who originally did it, but they did a great job, including all the moves...really good little concert!
They said to me this morning
"Well, why didn't you call us?". My response was, "With four of you in the room, NONE of you thought to say 'Hmmm..I wonder if she got the text'?"
Take it in the morning
I am currently pregnant. I took a test in the PM because I didn't want to wait either. I was certain I was pregnant as we had been trying. That test was neg. I waited 2 days and took another test in the AM and it was positive. If you really want to be sure you can call your doctor and see if you can come in for labs only and get the blood test. That will tell you for certain without any questions and most will do that without a problem and they can run it STAT if you request.
What a morning!

I have spent the last 5 minutes trying to get a "hair" off the side of my coffee mug.  Turns out it is a crack.  Then I tried to scratch my back with my pen and the pen fell into my shirt and I can't find it.  It has to be in there somewhere, right?


Do I need new glasses?  Is Alzheimer's setting in?  Oh wait, it's Monday...never mind.


My morning's no better --

My husband took today and tomorrow off to get the trimwork painted for our new house.  It needs to be done by this weekend -- about 10 bundles of 24 pieces each.


Anyway, we get up this morning and find out the kids don't have school today -- something mechanical at their school needs fixed.  Then, we were expecting a delivery today for the new house from Lowe's around lunchtime.  The guys called this morning at 8 o'clock and said they're at our new house waiting for our signature. 


Anything else?  Oh yeah, I really don't feel motivated to get my lines in -- UGGGHHHH! 


Morning Sickness
With my first daughter I didn't have any at all. I guess I was lucky. With my second daughter I had evening sickness. LOL. The only thing that would help with a cup of decaffeinated tea. It lasted I believe just a few weeks. Good luck with your pregnancy.
Third report of the morning...
Doctor starts to spell patient's name...D - i - g, as in Zebra.  Yes, he's an ESL and it's too early in the morning for this! 
I saw this earlier this morning, as well--sm
and on my start page, they actually showed a picture of the poor puppy! I was appalled at what I consider to be a lenient sentence for inflicting nothing but anger and hatred on a poor defensless animal. Unfortunately, treating these types of people the same way they treat other beings constitutes a crime and violates *their* rights, and would instill a punishment on us far worse than what he received. However, if it was possible to inflict on him the same as he inflicted, I would be the first in line to do so!!! I highly doubt one of his punishments of 48 hours of counseling is going to undo what is screwed up in his brain! But I would surely love to be his *counselor*.
Neither did DD who asked me this morning (sm)
Didn't even know what to tell her exactly.  She's a rich brat who is going to beat the legal system, that's all I know.
This morning before my first cup of coffee

"the cat threw up in the kitchen" right behind my chair!  I guess sleeping in on a Saturday doesn't pay off.  The cat ate too fast.  I guess she was famished.  Well it could be worse right? 


yes, she's still in jail this morning . . . nm

Definitely morning, one of those people who can get
going even before the first cup of coffee is done brewing....unfortunately, circumstances dictate that I work an evening shift.... so I'm pretty much a zombie while I'm typing.
Morning person
This sounds exactly like me! My eyes pop open without an alarm clock at 4:30-5:00 a.m. in the morning. I have trouble keeping my eyes open past 9:00 p.m. It's nice to know I'm not the only one in the world. I get so many "that's weird you get up so early" statements, I was starting to believe them!
