Thursday 11/5 Live Blog

Crazy Joe Davola. No reason. Just because.

Weekend Buzz took us on a tour of the South Valley's hotspots for the first full weekend of November. Stomp comes to the Milwaukee Theater, The Vienna Boys Choir is in Sheboygan, and the luminous Ms. Wynonna Judd plays the Crystal Grand Theater on Saturday night, among other highlights. Click the Zen Body Salon Community Calendar at k107.com for a full list.

In its 62nd year of bringing joy to America's neediest children, the U.S. Marine Corps is once again cranking up their Toys For Tots drive for the holidays. Lt. General Pete Osman joined us with the sobering news that 14 million kids in this country live in poverty, and the VERY least we can do is help them have a happy holiday season. Go to toysfortots.org for details and drop-off locations.

It's the true tale of a group of Jewish refugees who escaped Nazi-occupied Germany only to return as spies for the Allies. Author Patrick O'Donnell brought us the story in his new book, They Dared Return. So it seems Brad Pitt didn't kill Hitler after all.

Donisha Brown, a member of Stomp, slammed her way around the studio and told us how she came to join one of the loudest, most talented troupes on tour today. See Stomp live for three shows starting tomorrow night at the Milwaukee Theater.
