Some changes coming to the show!

Yup, it was inevitable. Firefighter Fritz is headed back to work. What does that mean to the show? Well for the next month or so, Fritz will be in early in the morning and for the Big Show part two. And while things are still buzzing in the community, he will be out with the Road Show too! It'll take some getting used to, but we're also working on some new and interesting features for the show. Never a dull moment around here.

I'm also working fast and furiously on the Big Show podcast page. It will be for the weird and goofy commercials and songs we play during the Big Show.

Don't forget, we're ALWAYS looking for input!

Come and See Us!!!

Hi Ya'll...

Just a note to let you know that we will be out at MULTIPLE locations this weekend and we are hoping to see you! We'll be at the Wal-Mart parking lot from 10am til noon Saturday and Sunday for the SCE-City of Ridgecrest, Flex Your Power lamp exchange. Bring out your old lamps and we'll replace them with a cool energy efficient lamp from SCE for FREE! Of course we'll also be at the Desert Empire Fair Thursday through Sunday broadcasting live and giving away some cool prizes.

Also, get out and support the parade on Saturday. It starts at 10 am and heads south on Balsam, west on Ridgecrest Blvd, north on Norma, then east on Las Flores. We'll have an announcer stand out in front of our building so the corner of Balsam and R/C blvd. will be hoppin'!

See ya at the Fair!

Gas and O.J.

We're looking for some feedback....first of all thanks for the calls on the gas prices. We're still looking for an answer about why gas prices are much higher than in Bishop. It was a 30 cent difference, at least now it's only 20 cents. Still not right though.

We talked about OJ this morning and I thought this might be a good place to get your feedback on what you thought was wrong with that process that allowed him to walk. The book we talked about was Outrage: The Five Reasons Why O.J. Simpson Got Away With Murder. Ask Ann and crew at Red Rock Books on Ridgecrest Blvd. to order it if she doesn't have it in. It's a quick read and totally exposes everything that the prosecution did wrong.

We often refer to "things we didn't get to" on the show. We literally ran out of time. Here are the Things We Didn't Get To on Friday:

TAKING "I'M WITH STUPID" TO THE NEXT LEVEL . . . . . .

(http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2006/09/28/earlyshow/main2046897.shtml?source=RSSattr=U.S._2046897)

Some parents are becoming upset after discovering that their sweet, innocent little teenagers have taken to wearing t-shirts with sexually suggestive messages like, "Spank me, it's my birthday." While we would never condone wearing a shirt with an inappropriate message, we can think of worse slogans to wear on a t-shirt, like:

- "Two margaritas and this shirt comes off!"
- "Future Hooters waitress"
- "My boyfriend sent me this shirt from jail."
- "I got my looks and my credit cards from my Dad"
- "Property of The Hell's Angels"
- "Stick around. I'm desperate and you could be lucky"
- "Poster girl for juvenile detention"
- "My other car is the back of a Harley"

It's a new blog. We'll use this to give you some of the stuff from the show, including occasionally, some of the goofy commercials and parody song. This was pretty weird this morning:

YOUR CRAZY RECIPE FOR THE DAY: DISHWASHER SALMON . . . . . .

(http://www.surrealgourmet.com/html/recipes/salmon.html)

- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 4 (6-ounce) salmon fillets
- 4 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Heavy-duty aluminum foil

- Cut two 12-inch square sheets of aluminum foil.
- Grease the shiny side of the foil with the oil. Place 2 fillets side by side on each square and fold up the outer edges.
- Drizzle 1 tablespoon lime juice over each fillet. Season with salt and pepper.
- Fold and pinch the aluminum foil extra tightly to create a watertight seal around each pair of fillets. Make sure the packet is airtight by pressing down on it gently with your hand. If air escapes easily, rewrap.
- Place foil packets on the top rack of the dishwasher. Run dishwasher for the entire "normal" cycle.
- When cycle is complete, take out salmon, discard foil, place one fillet on each plate, and spoon a generous serving of dill sauce over top.

We'll also take feedback for the show here. Be gentle.
