It was a fun week!

Happy Friday (the 13th)! Here’s a bit of what we did this week on the show.

  1. Music! Lot’s of great music!
  2. Scientists in Mexico are concerned a natural disaster could be coming our way, after a pair of 40-foot-long Oarfish washed up on shore. Oarfish, nicknamed the “doomsday fish” usually live 3-thousand feet under water, and seeing one is a sign of an impending disaster, like an earthquake or tsunami. (I’m not sure about a disaster coming but bad news for the fish they were featured on the Friday night fish fry!)
  3. Some grocery stores in California are now “suggesting” you leave a tip when you purchase your groceries. (I’ll be doing the same on our website, so you can leave a tip after you hear an “amazing” show. I’m sure that won’t happen very often)
  4. One out of three adults say they’re influenced by horoscopes, and base a lot of their life choices on them including financial decisions. (I don’t believe in horoscopes. Now, the ‘fortunes’ in fortune cookies, those are real!)
  5. A snow storm is on the way for this weekend, but Spring officially starts on March 20th! (I’m ready! I’m already wearing shorts when I golf…on my Playstation)
  6. The average American family washes 8 to 10 loads of laundry a week. (and if you have kids, 2 to 3 of those loads are probably found under their beds!)

Thanks for listening, have a great weekend and we’ll meet on the radio next week!
