HEY, REMEMBER ME???????

I know, I know--it's been too long but it's that time of year (need I say more)? I loved our guests today and you should check www.bettycrocker.com for that back to basics cookbook we talked about this morning. It's the perfect cookbook for the beginner!

"The Power of Play" is one of those books that people of ALL ages need to read, especially if there are youngsters in your life (it made me feel like a kid again!). Check out www.dk.com or www.fao.com for details on how to get this amazing book.

Jon and I loved meeting and speaking with Carol Reigh, Oshkosh-native and novelist. Carol's novel, "Second Fiddle" can be found at Apple Blossom Books in Oshkosh AND online at amazom.com. Meet Carol and purchase a signed copy of "Second Fiddle" on Friday, December 19th, at Choice Bank on Witzel Avenue. The Holiday Open House begins at 3:30. I'm telling you--you're gonna want to meet Carol......what a sweet lady (and talented, too). You can also go online to www.carolreigh.com for more information.

Hey, it was a blast today--hope to see you tomorrow.....ON the radio! Cheers!!

Blustery Tuesday

Hello all! Can you believe this windy, cold weather today? The good news is that it's Tuesday and we're close to hump day. I want to re-cap all those authors' websites from Monday's show as they were pretty interesting books (I thought so at least). Those websites are; www.talentisoverrated.com, www.woodsonmerrell.com, www.mansfieldgroup.com, and www.lesliesklinger.com. There you have it--every topic from Dracula to this election's candidates' religious beliefs, to becoming healthier and energeteic to "why don't I have talent?"

Today's show was just as fascinating........okay, did I say fascinating??? How about using "interesting" instead?? If you want more information on the GhostTalk communicator and psychic Jacki Mari go to www.jackimari.com and you'll learn everything you need to know. You can also call Jacki's free line at 888-282-1424.

Okay, so I was a little itty bit grumpy today........all right, so I was a big B! Sorry, I'm sure I'll feel better tomorrow.

Brian Carter is always fun, informative and fishy plus learn what the new (latest) Old Farmer's Almanac 2009 has to say about the upcoming weather. Did you know the Old Farmer's Alamanac also has a new cookbook? See, Jon and Mary ARE keeping you in the know!!
See ya tomorrow and stay warm! I love this time of year--even if it does get a little cooler at night and EARLY morning.
Mary

Take care!
Mary

Finally, HUMP DAY!

If you missed our wonderful morning show, you'll want to Google Why We Hate Us. The author is longtime journalist Dick Meyer and this book is such a good read--and a very good look at the changes in our "polite" society in the past few decades. He has some great insights as to how we can "hate" ourselves less and work toward improving our own community. Our other guest this morning penned a great book for parents of explosive children. Dr. Douglas Riley (author of The Defiant Child) just published "What Your Explosive Child Is Trying to Tell You" and you can check it out at www.drdouglasriley.com. Don't forget about Bravo's "Grease" coming to the North Fond du Lac High School Theater this weekend.

Don't miss Thursday's morning show as we interview the co-author of The Last Lecture, Jeffrey Zaslow. Professor Randy Pausch died of pancreatic cancer on July 25th, 2008, and you can view his lecture at www.TheLastLecture.com. It's so very touching and so is the book. Join us tomorrow, ok?

Mary

MONDAY'S Show!!

Whew! It's always a good feeling to have Monday's show.....how should I put it?? Over with!! Not that it isn't always a pleasure to walk in that studio and see Jon Carson's shining face. Let's just face it--Mondays are difficult days--for me anyway. However, Medium Monday is always the best Monday to have. Go to www.bridgingtwoworlds.net for information on the Brain Candy Project, a non-profit organization that helps parents of children with brain cancer.

Don't forget--tomorrow is "The Best of Jon and Mary" but we return on Wednesday with your Text-In question and a chance to win a $40 Pro Cellular accessories gift certificate. Enjoy the rest of your Monday and GO PACKERS!!

Mary

MONDAY with Jon and Mary

I'm always relieved when the early Monday morning hours are over--you know, the part about getting out of bed, getting ready for work, blah, blah, blah. Once you actually GET to work, it's not quite so bad. I have it pretty 'made in the shade' because you can't sit across from Jon Carson without laughing at the big goofball--thanks for that Jon!!

We had fun talking to our K107.1 Fitness Expert, Lynn Roethke from Club Olympia (wow, is she FIT!) about the upcoming Olympics as Lynn participated in several Olympic competitions in judo and won a silver medal. Learn more about Lynn on our experts' page on www.k107.com.

Jon and I will talk to the director from Cave of the Mounds--they have an exciting weekend celebration that sounds like a nice field trip for the family for this upcoming weekend.



But ladies, I have to admit that my heart (and various other body parts) is all aflutter about Antonio Sabato Jr. being on the show tomorrow)--that's right, it's Jagger Cates from General Hospital: Night Shift on SOAPnet. He's also NBC's winner of "Celebrity Circus" (I'd go under the Big Top with him anytime). I can't wait!! See you tomorrow on the radio!

THURSDAY'S Recap!

Holy Ice Cream, Batman!!!! Run out and try a box of Weight Watcher's low fat ice cream novelty treats--nothin' beats ice cream on a stick, especially when it's healthier for you and your waistline. And speaking of health, that hunky Dr. Travis Stork, from ABC's "The Bachelor" Season 8, sure was a sweet sounding guy! His new daytime show premieres September 8th on CBS and it's called THE DOCTORS. It sounds interesting--like Dr. Phil only the topics and real-life stories concern our physical health. For myself, I'm interested in hearing what the plastic surgeon has to say!!

Thank goodness it's almost Friday and we'll have the usual Friday FUN with K107.1 Masterpiece Theater with Tony Meade. Learn about narcissistic personality disorder tomorrow when we talk to Wendy Behary (a therapist specializing in narcissism) about her book, "Disarming the Narcissist." Hmmmm......I might not want to hear what she has to say.

Thanks for being so patient--we're still working on gathering, editing and posting some tremendously entertaining pictures of K107.1's very own 'hog wrestler extraordinaire' Jon Carson from last week's Hog Wrestling event in Eldorado.

Talk to you tomorrow!

Chasing Miss Piggy!

Don't miss the 5th annual Hog Wrestling Contest in the Eldorado Park in Eldorado on Saturday, July 19th. Why, you ask? Jon Carson (aka The Swine-er) is getting a team together to wrestle Miss Piggy (or maybe Mister Pig, who knows but he'll find out soon enough when he tries to manhandle the oinker). Actually, I'm pretty proud of Jon for even entertaining the idea of wrestling a pig. You know he's a city slicker, Detroit home boy, never shovelled any excrement from any type of animal before (he barely cleans his hampster cage)!


I'm trying to help him with his wrestling costume but you could help as well. I was thinking along the lines of a "Nacho Libre" outfit only call it "Macho Libre". Or maybe a pair of those tight bicycling shorts, wearing his Speedo over it(or some type of provocative thong). Let's not forget those stylish Daisy Duke cut-offs and skimpy tube tops he loves so much. Any ideas? I AM going to buy him an industrial size bottle of disinfectant soap--he's gonna need it after rolling around in pig feces-flavored mud. I'm laughing already at the faces he'll be making in that arena. Then again, he may develop a new heightened affection for this smelly but smart 4 legged creature and decide never to eat ham or bacon again. I'm sure this wrestling event will be a once-in-a-lifetime venture for our Jon Carson but oh, the pictures and videos from this will be priceless!!!!

Talk to you soon!
Mary McGuire (former farm girl that used to shovel........)
