6:00 AM:  We are all excited for the 3 day weekend and know you probably are too. It’s going to be a record high today with the temps near 95 degrees, but it was already in the 100’s this time last year.  Sandy’s daughter is almost 1 year old, and her birthday party is coming up. Sandy had a cool idea to write Landry a letter every year on her birthday and to keep them in his safe until she graduates and then to give her all of the letters. His wife Tricia loved the idea and wondered where he got the idea. He is now convinced Tricia thinks he has no original thoughts because she couldn’t believe that he came up with that idea on his own.  The oil spill in the Gulf has now surpassed the Exxon oil spill.  The biggest fear now is that hurricane season is coming, and they have no idea who the oil slicks will react with the hurricanes. Rapper/actor 50 Cent is playing a cancer stricken football player for an upcoming role in a film, and he is unrecognizable. He got all of his tattoos removed with a laser and has lost 50 lbs by doing a liquid only diet and 3 hours of cardio a day.  If you want to see how sick he looks, you can see the picture on Sara’s blog.

6:15 AM: Sara went on a date yesterday for her “10 dates in 10 days”, but it was a little different than the rest have been. She didn’t know anything about her date except for his name. She brought her cousin with her on the date because she is in town visiting Sara. The guys think what she did is ridiculous, but Alex does think it’s kind of a plus for the guy because he went on a date with not one, but two girls! He is an engineer who went to UT, and grew up in LaGrange.  He was a really nice guy, and even paid for both of the girl’s food and drink.

6:30 AM: Four things you need to know with Sara. The Coen Brothers movie “True Grit” will be filmed downtown today, and east 9^th street between Congress and Brazos will be closed. They have transformed the street back into the way it might look during the Civil War era. Alicia Keys is pregnant with her boyfriend, rapper Swizz Beats’ child. Gary Coleman has been hospitalized after a fall and is said to be in critical condition.

6:40 AM: Happy Birthday today to Michael Oher (24), Elisabeth Hasselbeck (33), Kylie Minogue (42), John Fogerty (65), Colbie Calliat (25), and Krista Miller from Scrubs. Headlines of the day. The most tattooed person in the world is Julia Nuss who is 55. She started getting tattoos 25 years ago because of a skin condition. She has 95% of her body covered in tattoos.  On her hip she has tattoos of Lucille Ball, Desi Arnaz, and Jed Clampett. The average person shows up to work 3x a week with a hangover. Alex said he used to be “that guy” when he was in his partying phase.  Sandy had a great time last night emceeing the Wounded Warrior Dinner, which was a benefit for the men and women of our armed forces who have been injured in battle. Sandy met many amazing people last night and was so humbled to be in their presence.

7:00 AM:  80’s megamix to kick of the “revenge of the 80’s weekend”—shout out to all of the kids who are about to be out of school for the summer, the men and women of the U.S. armed forces, the teachers who have been working hard all year and are about to get a break, and the local law enforcement officers would will be working hard this weekend to keep Austin safe!

7:10 AM: The week in review is all of the best moments of the week edited together by Alex.  This week there were some hilarious moments, including; baby T Pain, Jesse James mixed the “the cry of the century” , Sara’s date recaps, Alex’s admission to owning multiple pound puppies as a child, and JB telling us about walking through one of the new body scanners at the Kansas City Airport.

7:20 AM: Cecily reviews Sex and the City 2 for us and Prince of Persia.  Her review of SATC2; just don’t…grade of a D. Prince of Persia; bad accent by Jake Gyllenhaal, but loves him being shirtless the entire movie. Good action, but not many other redeeming qualities….grade of a C-. Get him to the Greek; P Diddy stole the show, very funny, but not as funny as McGruber…grade of D.  

7:30 AM: Four things you need to know with Sara. Sara plays audio for us. A kid recorded his mom watching the American Idol finale, and she was very, very upset that Lee won and Crystal didn’t. The best quote is when she says “oh my God, my whole life is ruined”.  Sandy plays a recording of a Texas woman who is upset that a tornado watch interrupted her ability to view “Criminal Minds”. She was very upset because of the interruption and called the TV station to complain.  Crystal Bowersox and her boyfriend broke up right before the finale show of American Idol.  Rapper/actor 50 Cent is playing a cancer stricken football player for an upcoming role in a film, and he is unrecognizable. He got all of his tattoos removed with a laser and has lost 50 lbs by doing a liquid only diet and 3 hours of cardio a day.  He went from 216 pounds to 160 pounds, and if you want to see how sick he looks you can see the picture on Sara’s blog.

7:45 AM: Why should your life be made into a movie? Today is Michael Oher’s birthday, and he is the person whose life story inspired the hit movie “The Blind Side”. We wonder if any of our listeners have stories from their lives that would make a great movie. We heard from a woman who was kidnapped as a teenager and taken on a week long cross-country trip by her kidnapper, a woman who grew up in the witness protection program, and a girl who went from an abusive childhood and a teen pregnancy to marrying a Marine and having a happy life.

8:05 AM: Sandy’s headlines. The idiot criminal of the day is a 39 year old man who lives near Seattle. He committed a string of home burglaries and did the same thing every time (including pooping in the home). He finally left his dirty underpants at the most recent robbery, and the police ran his dirty underwear, and through the DNA figured out who he was.  An 8 year old was chained to a street post by his father, and his dad tried to auction him off. This happened in China, and claims that he wasn’t trying to make money, but was trying to find a new home for his son.

8:15 AM: The week in review is all of the best moments of the week edited together by Alex.  This week there were some hilarious moments, including; baby T Pain, Jesse James mixed the “the cry of the century” , Sara’s date recaps, Alex’s admission to owning multiple pound puppies as a child, and JB telling us about walking through one of the new body scanners at the Kansas City Airport.

8:20 AM: Sandy and Alex made a bet yesterday at Jason’s Deli that cost Alex lunch for them both. Alex thought a woman across the restaurant was their former co-worker Cat, and they bet lunch on it. So Sandy went over to talk to the woman. Turns out she was NOT their friend, but the funny things is that she says she gets mistaken for that particular woman all of the time!

8:30 AM: Four things you need to know with Sara. The oil spill in the Gulf has now surpassed the Exxon oil spill.  The biggest fear now is that hurricane season is coming, and they have no idea who the oil slicks will react with the hurricanes. The Coen Brothers movie “True Grit” will be filmed downtown today, and east 9^th street between Congress and Brazos will be closed until 11 pm tonight. They have transformed the street back into the way it might look during the Civil War era. Alicia Keys is pregnant with her boyfriend, rapper Swizz Beats’ child. Gary Coleman has been hospitalized after a fall and is said to be in critical condition.

8:45 AM: Yesterday Max Cannon visited the show to talk to us about a fundraising event this weekend he’s throwing for “Bikes for Kids”. It’s Saturday in Cedar Park, and is going to be fun for the whole family. Go to www.maxcannon.com for all the details.  If you can’t go to the event or aren’t interested, you can still donate to bikes for kids on Max’s website.

9:00 AM:  Yesterday we talked about how Sandy has dubbed Alex and his wife “The Fightin’ Francos” because we’ve noticed they fight a lot. They are going to a wedding this weekend, and his wife wanted to stay at the resort because there is a swim up bar. The rooms cost $200 a night, so he didn’t want to pay for it. He told her he’d set up a swim up bar at their apartment complex pool. She got mad when he said he’d put a stool in the pool and make her cocktails at home at their apartment.  Today we get his wife on the phone to hear HER side of the story. His wife agrees that he is a “fun killer”, like we accused him of being yesterday.  She says anytime she is excited about something, he somehow finds a way to minimize it. We had a listener named Edward call in with a great idea for Andria. He says next time Alex is excited about a Nascar race and wants to go to one, that she should tell him they’re staying home and they can race remote control cars in the parking lot.

9:15 AM: The week in review is all of the best moments of the week edited together by Alex.  This week there were some hilarious moments, including; baby T Pain, Jesse James mixed the “the cry of the century” , Sara’s date recaps, Alex’s admission to owning multiple pound puppies as a child, and JB telling us about walking through one of the new body scanners at the Kansas City Airport.

9:30 AM: Four things you need to know with Sara. Gary Coleman has been hospitalized after a fall and is said to be in critical condition. Rapper/actor 50 Cent is playing a cancer stricken football player for an upcoming role in a film, and he is unrecognizable.

9:35 AM: Happy Birthday today to Michael Oher (24), Elisabeth Hasselbeck (33), Kylie Minogue (42), John Fogerty (65), Colbie Calliat (25), and Krista Miller from Scrubs. :  80’s megamix to kick of the “revenge of the 80’s weekend”—shout out to all of the kids who are about to be out of school for the summer, the men and women of the U.S. armed forces, the teachers who have been working hard all year and are about to get a break, and the local law enforcement officers would will be working hard this weekend to keep Austin safe!

9:45 AM: This weekend Sara will have her last date for her “10 dates in 10 days”, and she has enjoyed doing all of the dates. She feels like it’s helped her be less nervous on dates in the future.  Alex is still holding onto his “redneck swim up bar” idea, and thinks he should do it on Tuesday and all of us should come after the show.

The reviews for Sex and the City 2 are in…and it’s possible they’re actually worse than the awful early reviews. The moans practically jump from the page:

• “Call this sequel callow, garish, ghastly, grisly or grotesque—and it is all of those things, plus borderline-interminable at 146 minutes,” writes Joe Morgenstern for the Wall Street Journal.

• “We start seeing the sexually free Samantha as utterly pathetic,” opines Mick LaSalle in the San Francisco Chronicle, recalling a scene where she mimes oral sex on a hookah pipe. “Get real, folks. If a man wants a woman who’ll behave in public like a 20-year-old prostitute, he’ll find an actual 20-year-old prostitute.”

• “The zipper is broken, the heel has snapped, the Botox has hit the brain,” writes Julia Baird in Newsweek, proving it’s not just male reviewers who hated the “utterly lame” film. The characters’ self-involvement is “nauseating,” their obsession with expensive clothes and shoes “gross.”

• “Some of these people make my skin crawl,” writes Roger Ebert in the Chicago Sun-Times. “The characters are flyweight bubbleheads living in a world which rarely requires three sentences in a row.” The features “more cleavage than at a pro wrestler’s wedding. And crotches, have we got crotches for you.”

For more of the cattiest lines—including another female reviewer who moans, “I’m not asking for much. I just don’t want to be sick in my mouth.”—click here.

I personally, enjoyed the film. It isn’t going to win an Oscar for anything, but true fans of the show and the first movie will like it.  I had so much fun at Mix 94.7’s premiere party at the new Gold Class Cinemas at The Domain. We got to walk a pink carpet, drink champagne, and enjoy the movie in comfy recliners. Who can beat that?

Hanging out at the Shuck Shack. Listen below to how the date went…it was very unique.

This is so wrong.

Watch the disturbing video of 2-year-old Ardi Rizal in Indonesia smoking a cigarette.

Ardi is addicted to nicotine and smokes about 40 cigarettes a day after his father gave him his first cigarette at 18 months old. His mother says that he throws extreme tantrums if he doesn’t get them:

“He’s totally addicted. If he doesn’t get cigarettes, he gets angry and screams and batters his head against the wall. He tells me he feels dizzy and sick.”

And I was feeling like a bad parent because sometimes I let my 2 year old have ice cream when she screams for it.

6:00 AM:  Lee DeWyze won American Idol last night, and he was incredibly excited. Last night was also Simon’s last show, and all of the past idols showed up (except for David Cook) to sing and wish him well.  In other shocking news, Willie Nelson has cut off his braids. He did it a couple of weeks ago and says it was because the hair required too much maintenance.

6:15 AM: Fact or bull fact. 1 in every 1,000 people who have surgery wake up during it. The period after “Dr” in Dr. Pepper was removed in the 1970’s to make the logo easier to read. Gorilla comes from the Greek word for “hairy woman”.

6:30 AM:  Unknown poll for adult women—do you count calories? 45% of women nationally do count their calories every day. In Austin, there were was slightly less women who’d admit to being calorie counters.  Four things you need to know with Sara.  Formula One Racing has secured their site in Austin, and it will be over 500 acres. They haven’t disclosed the location yet, but it’s rumored to be near the airport. The UT men’s baseball team lost their game last night to Mizzou, but we remain hopeful they will be playing in the College World Series in July. Apple is now the biggest tech company in the world, having recently surpassed Microsoft. Grease is being re-released in theatres this summer, and it’ll be a sing along version with the lyrics across the bottom of the screen. You can go to www.greasemovie.com to petition for it to come to Austin.

6:45 AM: Happy Birthday today to Chris Colfer (20),  Jamie Oliver (35), Andre 3000, Todd Bridges from Different Strokes (45), Lisa Left Eye Lopez would have had a birthday today, Peri Gilpin aka Roz from Frasier (49), Neil Finn the lead singer of Crowded House.  Sandy’s headlines. A bunch of teenagers in Buffalo, NY were driving through a small town and dared each other to hold their breath while driving through the town. The drive passed out while trying to hold his breath, crashed the vehicle at 55 mph, and there were a lot of broken bones but luckily everyone lived.

7:00 AM: Cecily calls in to review Sex and the City 2. She was a big fan of the TV series and liked the first movie a lot. However, she feels scarred by seeing this recent film, and couldn’t believe how many bad puns were in the film. She thinks they will have to make a 3^rd movie to redeem themselves for this movie being so bad. She grades it a D, which she claims is being generous.  Prince of Persia is also out this week. She didn’t like Jake Gyllenhaal’s British accent considering it was set in Persia. It has good action, but is average, earning a C from Cecily.  Next week Get Him to the Greek is out and she gives it a B-.

7:10 AM: Sara’s American Idol recap from last night. Alanis Morrisette and Crystal Bowersox sang a duet with “You Oughta Know” and it was Sara’s favorite thing. Lee did a duet with Chicago and it was terrible.  Bret Michaels showed up, which seems weird considering he should be in the hospital. Paula Abdul showed up to say goodbye to Simon, and she looked good! Lee DeWyze won and is our new American Idol.

7:25 AM: Sandy has dubbed Alex and his wife “The Fightin’ Francos” because we’ve noticed they fight a lot. They are going to a wedding this weekend, and his wife wanted to stay at the resort because there is a swim up bar. The rooms cost $200 a night, so he didn’t want to pay for it. He told her he’d set up a swim up bar at their apartment complex pool. She got mad when he said he’d put a stool in the pool and make her cocktails at home at their apartment.

7:30 AM: Four things you need to know with Sara. Tom Cruise was acting crazy on the set of his new movie with Cameron Diaz called “Knight and Day”, including talking in 3^rd person, reshooting scenes, and saying he didn’t want certain kinds of music in his movie.  Tiger Woods is in the middle of a divorce with his wife Elin, and his lawyers are telling him not to go out with any women until he signs the divorce papers.  Jesse James told Nightline that he was beaten by his father as a child and that is why he acts the way he does today. His dad has now gone to the media and said everything Jesse said is untrue, and that he’d die before hurting his son.

7:45 AM: Sara went on a date yesterday with Andrew Locke, centerfielder for the Round Rock Express.  She didn’t know what to expect, but they totally hit it off when they realized that they both love American Idol. She says he is totally hot and hopes they can hang out again. See a video of their date at Sara’s blog.

8:00 AM:  Max Cannon visits the show to talk to us about a fundraising event this weekend he’s throwing for “Bikes for Kids”. It’s Saturday in Cedar Park, and is going to be fun for the whole family. Go to www.maxcannon.com for all the details. 

8:05 AM: Sandy’s headlines.  ORS is a syndrome where people think they have bad body odor even when they do not, and causes their lives to be very hard. 60% of sufferers are women and most start worrying about it at age 15. 80% of ORS sufferers constantly smell themselves.  Worst city in the world to live in is Baghdad Iraq. The top 10 BEST cities to live in are not in the U.S. and include; Sydney, Bern, Munich, Frankfurt, Dusseldorf, Auckland, Vancouver, Geneva, Zurich, and #1 is Vienna.  The highest ranking U.S. city is Honolulu.  With all of the news stories lately with schools getting in trouble for crazy yearbook features about drugs and teen pregnancy, Cassiday brought in her yearbooks to show everyone the 2 page spread about the girls in her school who got pregnant. She graduated in the early 2000’s, and both  JB and Alex said there were pregnant girls when they went to high school, but it was taboo to talk about it.

8:25 AM: Sara’s American Idol recap from last night. Alanis Morrisette and Crystal Bowersox sang a duet with “You Oughta Know” and it was Sara’s favorite thing. Lee did a duet with Chicago and it was terrible.  Bret Michaels showed up, which seems weird considering he should be in the hospital. Paula Abdul showed up to say goodbye to Simon, and she looked good! Lee DeWyze won and is our new American Idol.

8:35 AM: Four things you need to know with Sara.  BP officials tried a new method to try and stop the oil leak yesterday, and they are hoping to know by this afternoon if it worked or not.  Formula One Racing has secured their site in Austin, and it will be over 500 acres.

He did it a couple of weeks ago and says it was because the hair required too much maintenance.

8:40 AM: Sandy’s parents have a friend who drives 3 hours to get her hair cut, and he was shocked by this. He figured no one else would do this, but we heard from lots of listeners who travel even farther to get their hair done. We talked to a man whose wife drives from Austin to San Angelo to get her hair cut.  One woman moved to Florida and flies her Dallas hairdresser to Florida to cut her hair multiple times a year. Sara’s friend flies to Las Vegas to get her hair cut.

8:55 AM: Happy Birthday today to Chris Colfer from Glee(20),  Jamie Oliver (35), Andre 3000, Todd Bridges from Different Strokes (45), Adam Corolla,   Lisa Left Eye Lopez would have had a birthday today, Peri Gilpin aka Roz from Frasier (49), Neil Finn the lead singer of Crowded House.

9:15 AM: JB took his daughter to PetCo last night, and Raleigh showed him everything he wanted. She wants geckos right now, so JB took her to visit them, but wouldn’t buy them. He saw another mom taking her kids there to “visit” the hamsters but wouldn’t buy them.  What do you visit because you aren’t in the market to actually buy it right now?  We got calls from listeners who are visiting the following things; a Jeep Wrangler, a 1.5 million dollar house in Circle C, Horses, and an $80,000 Engagement Ring.

9:35 AM: Four things you need to know with Sara.  Alanis Morrisette and Crystal Bowersox sang a duet with “You Oughta Know” and it was Sara’s favorite thing.
