PRESIDENT OBAMA!

I think the Calgary Herald wrote it best this morning:
(I'll be saving this copy)

Barack Obama, the son of a black father from Kenya and a white mother from Kansas,
was elected the 44th president of the United Stateson Tuesday night, breaking the ultimate racial barrier to become the first African-American to claim the country's highest office.

(Here's my favorite part)

A nation that was founded by slave owners and seared by civil war and generations of racial strife delivered a smashing victory to the 47 year old rookie Democratic senator from Illinois.

(This is not only a great moment in American History but World History)
It's a great day to be alive!

....more comments, here's what a friend of mine just emailed me!


Pretty amazing night!

When I was a kid our family spent a lot of time camping in the southern U.S., this was around '67-'69. The racism was unbelievable, we actually saw a doctors office with one entry door marked "whites" and another one marked "coloreds". I remember my dad saying that "in our lifetime we'll see a black president".
My wife and I went to Memphis a couple of years ago we visited the Lorraine Motel where MLK was shot. It was amazing to see Jesse Jackson last night, who stood beside MLK as he died.

Last night's speech was every bit as important as "I have a dream" speech.

Still can't believe it.

Hey now, I know it’s early and Christmas is still just under 2 months away but we were talking Christmas shopping on yesterday’s show, so I thought I'd mention this:

There's a new product out there you can get to give to your husband called The Little Pink Card.
Cost about 10 bux (and you can probably make your own), but the concept is a good one.
If your husband is forgetful or doesn’t get it (like most men),
this card holds all the info he needs to pick out the perfect present. We're talking your favorite candy, your dress size, bra size, etc.
Slide it in your husband's wallet and you might not have to stand in mile-long return/exchange lines on December 26th. Being spared that horror is a gift in itself.
Guys, imagine the fights you’ll avoid when you mess up her dress size by 2 full sizes…..this is genius!

The city of calgary has finalized a new minimum fine against dog owners of 350 dollars if they don’t pick up their pets business…this is fantastic news…

Here’s the thing, there’s someone in my neighborhood whose dog keeps using my grass and the owner doesn't pick up.

Does this mean the owner owes me 350 bux if I catch them since it's private property?

Hey, great way to raise some money for my new fence. Let's make a deal!

2 Strangers and a PICTURE! WOW!

This morning's 2 Strangers and a Wedding was definitely a highlight in my 18 years in radio. The best part? I have two new friends! No matter what they end up deciding in the next few hours regarding their trip "honeymoon", I was ok with Kimberly and Jeff's decision this morning. Mind you, I understand how true romantics out there could be very disappointed. More importantly, I hope time sees these two progressing as a couple. I'll tell you this much. I was very impressed with both of them. Kim, is beautiful, inside and out! And Jeff? what a handsome and articulate gentleman. I was truly blown away. They are definitely two people I enjoyed meeting and hope to continue our friendship which began with our daily conversations together during the social experiment. 2 Strangers and a Wedding was a huge success in my eyes. It taught me how important it is to get to know someone without having that ability to see them. They may not be in love with each other YET...but I fell in love with both of them. That to me, was worth everything.

On the Wii DL already

Ok, I've only owned a Wii for 2 days and so far I have several injuries.

At first I thought I was the only loser on the planet to have suffered a Wii injury but now I realize people around the world have sustained serious injuries playing this game.

My elbow kills..so does my wrist and shoulder blade but man can I wack those homeruns...too bad L.A couldn't do the same tonight.

Watching the Flames game..going to bed soon.

How does Kelly Hrudey look so young year after year?



Is he sucking down Dick Clark energy drinks or what?
