Give us a bit of time and
we'll have Jenna's pictures from her first Frugal Fashion Finds foray.
Weekend 3.30-4.1
Mr. J promises he'll have
tons of fresh material on Monday, but right now he's got a baby boy to
take care of. Watch this space for updates on our Frugal Fashion Finds
with Morning Mix newsperson-in-training Jenna Smith.
Coming up on Friday, we're
debuting a new Morning Mix feature, tentatively named "Frugal Finds"
unless Miller can come up with a dumber name for it. We're going to be
sending Mix 97.7 news-anchor-in-training Jenna Smith out to local stores
to put together inexpensive job interview outfits. Jenna's about to
graduate from college, so she may actually be putting her outfits
through real-world interview situations. Listen for Jenna this Friday
morning, and watch this page for what she finds and where she finds it!
Staying with the goldfish
theme, here's a cute widdle baby duck feeding some goldfish. Awwwwwwww:
Tuesday 3.27
Goldfish, synchronized swimming. Yes,
really:
Monday 3.26
Miller's taking a couple
days off, with Frankenberry filling in.
All the silly-cheap deals
from Amazon have been compiled in one spot at
www.junglecrazy.com.
Segueing from cookies to
brownies, here's news for those of you who like the brownies that come
from an edge of the pan (as opposed to the middle): there's now
a baking pan with extra edges so that all the brownies have edges.
Thursday 3.22
As mentioned on this
morning's show, pet food recall info is available by
clicking here.
Also on this morning's show,
that rundown of the Greenwich, Connecticut car census:
3769 BMWs
3474 Mercedez-Benzes
931 Porsches
94 Ferraris
90 Bentleys
65 Aston Martins
40 Maseratis
39 Rolls-Royces
4 Maybachs
1 Lamborghini
And a free-range partridge in a (organically fertilized heirloom) pear
tree.
If you're watching an old
Disney video with your kids this weekend and start thinking "hmm, that
scene looked familiar"...well,
you might have something there.
Whoa, dude.
Check out that link and be ready for some serious weirdness. Unless you
have photosensitive epilepsy, in which case you better not.
Here's the link to that nagging-doesn't-work story we mentioned this
morning.
And does a 3-year-old really
need a
Pretend and Play Office? (Daniel, there's supposed to be a cover on
that TPS report! Milk and cookies are for closers, Maria!)
Tuesday 3.13
Mr. J is back in the
building and won't shut up about being at the
Genesis press conference last week. He hadn't had that much fun at a
news event since he saw Boris Yeltsin stewed to the gills in 1995 at
FDR's place with Bill Clinton. (UPDATE: You think we're joking about
Yeltsin being drunk back then?
We're not.)
Ladies, if you've got your
eye on a nice purse but know the man in your life will flip out if he
sees a $500 charge on the credit card for, let's face it, a bag, then
check out
www.bagborroworsteal.com, where you can get yourself (temporarily)
the accessory you desire without breaking the bank.
Weekend 3.2-4
Mr. J will be on vacation
until Tuesday the 13th, so posting is expected to be light. Until then,
you can amuse yourself with these timewasters:
And finally, the extremely
odd Human
Slinky. Do not watch if you've had a long business lunch; the
weirdness may make your head hurt:
Thursday 3.1
Hilarious link alert!
Today's the 50th anniversary
of the publication of Dr. Seuss' The Cat In The Hat... and in
honor of that, we found
www.dylanhearsawho.com, in which you can hear the Doctor's choice
works performed by the finest Bob Dylan impersonator we've ever heard.
And from our "can't get any
good help these days" files, the business card of Google's CEO:
Eh, it's only a $144 billion
company. Who needs proofreading?
Wednesday 2.28
Because nobody's a bigger
expert on human fertility than the childless host of the Morning Mix, we
present
BOB MILLER'S FERTILITY
FRUIT SALAD
1 8-ounce can crushed
pineapple
2 kiwi fruits, peeled and sliced
1 apple, cored and diced
1 cup sliced strawberries
1/2 cup orange juice
1 large sliced banana
1 8-ounce carton fat-free lemon yogurt
1 tablespoon crystallized chopped ginger
Toss the fruit and juice
ingredients.
Add banana just before serving (or it'll turn brown and totally ruin the
mood).
Top with yogurt and sprinkle on the ginger.
Conceive child.
Serves 4.
Why it needs to serve 4 we're not sure given its purpose,
but keep in mind where this recipe is coming from, okay?
But wait! Great news -
Washington has
changed their mind about the new rule that would've required
passports for all your kids, just for a quick drive up to Canada.
