Speaker 1: Just when I think you couldn't possibly be any dumber.
0:07
Speaker 1: What is the dumbest thing you did as a teenager?
0:10
Speaker 1: And of course this is one of those stories that
0:13
Speaker 1: when you find out where it's from, you go, oh.
0:15
Speaker 2: Yeah, that fits.
0:16
Speaker 3: Oh gosh, what happened.
0:18
Speaker 1: There's a teenager took a joy ride on a riding
0:20
Speaker 1: lawnmower into a convenience store, crashed through the front and
0:26
Speaker 1: it made national news. Where would you get if you
0:29
Speaker 1: had to get Florida? Right off the bat, it's from Florida.
0:33
Speaker 2: I didn't even need.
0:35
Speaker 1: To scroll down to find out that answer, but it
0:37
Speaker 1: did get me thinking I've done some pretty dumb things
0:39
Speaker 1: as a teenager. There was one time, one time. Now
0:43
Speaker 1: I will stay or I will say for the rest
0:45
Speaker 1: of my life. I didn't technically do it.
0:48
Speaker 4: I was just with okay, okay, built my association.
0:53
Speaker 1: That's exactly what happened. I didn't do it, but I
0:56
Speaker 1: did drive there. I had a buddy and I and
1:00
Speaker 1: there was this old photo and it's like a poster
1:05
Speaker 1: now where someone spray painted Clapton is God on the
1:10
Speaker 1: side of a British like train station.
1:13
Speaker 2: Eric Clapton famous guitar play. If you don't know.
1:15
Speaker 1: Well, my buddy and I were sixteen years old and
1:19
Speaker 1: we thought we were the next you know, Eric Clapton
1:21
Speaker 1: Jimmy Hendrick's duo. We were playing guitar all the time.
1:24
Speaker 1: We thought it was great. So we went to our
1:27
Speaker 1: former middle school where he spray painted clapped in his
1:31
Speaker 1: God on the school stop and I sat there and watched,
1:36
Speaker 1: and of course we got caught. We got in big
1:38
Speaker 1: trouble and it was you got.
1:39
Speaker 3: How did you? I can't even imagine.
1:41
Speaker 2: How explain this even better? For all, we didn't break
1:45
Speaker 2: into the school.
1:45
Speaker 1: It was on the outside of the school, but it
1:47
Speaker 1: was It was in the middle of like a national
1:52
Speaker 1: teacher conference at the school in broad daylight. It was
1:56
Speaker 1: like two in the afternoon. There were a hundred cars
1:59
Speaker 1: in the parking lot.
2:00
Speaker 4: But I'm not trying to say that you are stupid,
2:03
Speaker 4: but that is stupid.
2:05
Speaker 3: Why would you do that?
2:07
Speaker 2: Just young and dumb? Wow, young and dumb.
2:10
Speaker 3: I mean, well, we're the consequences. What happened to you?
2:13
Speaker 1: Oh we had to like pay a fine and I
2:15
Speaker 1: got sts. If you don't know what that is, not, well,
2:20
Speaker 1: what's the sentence to serve? It's where you basically like,
2:25
Speaker 1: if you ever driving on the highway and you see
2:26
Speaker 1: the people in the jackets cleaning up the garbage or
2:29
Speaker 1: picking up the park or whatever, it's basically.
2:32
Speaker 3: Like community service.
2:33
Speaker 1: I like to change it in say community service. Yeah,
2:35
Speaker 1: but we weren't really serving the community by choice.
2:39
Speaker 3: You didn't volunteer for that.
2:40
Speaker 1: Clearly we weren't the greatest criminals trying to get this away,
2:43
Speaker 1: get away with this at two in the afternoon during
2:45
Speaker 1: some big, giant national like teacher conference.
2:47
Speaker 4: That really when you said the dumbest thing, that really
2:50
Speaker 4: was dumb.
2:51
Speaker 2: Yeah, not very very smart.
2:53
Speaker 1: I can't be the only one, though, who was joy
2:55
Speaker 1: ridden a lawnmower into a store or painting it out
2:57
Speaker 1: of school in broad daylight seven zero one two eight
3:01
Speaker 1: zero one nine eight seven.
3:02
Speaker 2: And you ever do something dumb as a teenager.
3:04
Speaker 4: The thing is, I'm such a rule follower and a
3:07
Speaker 4: scaredy cat that I really didn't do anything because when
3:09
Speaker 4: I was eleven, I got caught ditching school and I
3:13
Speaker 4: you know, suffered severer consequences. My mom grounded me for
3:17
Speaker 4: four weeks. But in our house, if you were grounded,
3:20
Speaker 4: that meant you stayed in your room. You had two
3:21
Speaker 4: bathroom breaks, and all meals were inside your room. So
3:24
Speaker 4: I didn't want to go through that again.
3:25
Speaker 2: Jail.
3:26
Speaker 3: Yes, I was in home jail. So after that I.
3:29
Speaker 4: Really didn't do anything as a teenager because I was scare.
3:32
Speaker 3: She scared me straight.
3:33
Speaker 1: I did not do anything ever again it worked, Yeah, Mark,
3:37
Speaker 1: what'd you do?
3:38
Speaker 5: I convinced my brother that there was a cupcake in
3:40
Speaker 5: the tree in her backyard.
3:41
Speaker 2: He climbed it and fell and broke his arm.
3:44
Speaker 3: I don't mean to laugh.
3:45
Speaker 1: I bet mom and dad were real thrilled there. That
3:49
Speaker 1: is the most boy thing I've ever had. That is
3:52
Speaker 1: literally the most like boy mom, boy dad thing of
3:55
Speaker 1: all time. My brother once got me to drink you
3:59
Speaker 1: know what, the stuff you put on like a cut.
4:02
Speaker 2: To clean it.
4:03
Speaker 4: The hydrogen peroxide.
4:05
Speaker 2: Yeah, it comes in that little brown looking bottle thing.
4:08
Speaker 4: Yeah.
4:08
Speaker 1: My brother once told me that was apple juice. I
4:10
Speaker 1: took a shot of that when I was about eight,
4:11
Speaker 1: So this explains a lot. My mom was not happy,
4:16
Speaker 1: jenn O, what'd you do?
4:17
Speaker 4: I cut my own bangs right before school pictures and
4:20
Speaker 4: not even a little trim.
4:21
Speaker 3: I went full. I've never seen hair before, and my
4:25
Speaker 3: mom cried.
4:25
Speaker 1: The photographer had to tield my head a certain way.
4:28
Speaker 3: To hide it. That's nice that the photographer even tried
4:31
Speaker 3: to help you out. Celebrating life's little victories.
4:39
Speaker 5: Every morning we practice gratitude on Big ninety eight point seven.
4:43
Speaker 2: If I could, I would keep this feeling in a basket.
4:46
Speaker 3: JOm busted out when it was someone's acting hard.
4:48
Speaker 5: Sure your little victories with us at seven oh one
4:51
Speaker 5: two eight oh one ninety eight.
4:53
Speaker 3: Seven, kids, I also needed to win that day, Angie.
4:56
Speaker 2: Do you have a little victory for us this morning?
4:58
Speaker 4: We had a really great yesterday, myself, Mike and the boys.
5:03
Speaker 4: Because you'll like this, Gabe. Mike had dropped his bike
5:08
Speaker 4: off at Shields to get the chain read something I
5:12
Speaker 4: don't know. I'm not part of the bike community, and
5:15
Speaker 4: so yesterday it was done and he got to go
5:19
Speaker 4: to Shields to pick up his bike. However, me and
5:22
Speaker 4: the kiddos were in toe, so we decided to act
5:26
Speaker 4: brand new at Shields as though we have never been there.
5:29
Speaker 3: So we did all the things.
5:30
Speaker 4: We took pictures at the little Greetings from Fargo sign.
5:33
Speaker 3: They have that huge chair that you can sit in
5:36
Speaker 3: and take a picture. Yep, we did that.
5:38
Speaker 4: They took a picture by the Bison that was there,
5:41
Speaker 4: and then that little shooting game that they have.
5:44
Speaker 3: Oh, sure, we played that for a chunk of time.
5:47
Speaker 4: Someone was already doing the little bowling lanes or whatever,
5:49
Speaker 4: so we didn't do that.
5:50
Speaker 3: But it was just fun to play tourists at Shields.
5:54
Speaker 4: Yeah, Like we had a great time and so that
5:57
Speaker 4: was it was just fun. It was fun to do
5:59
Speaker 4: that on an afternoon where we hadn't really planned to
6:02
Speaker 4: do anything.
6:03
Speaker 2: Yeah. It was one of those spur of the moment moments.
6:06
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the kids were really happy to do it.
6:09
Speaker 4: And anytime you can get the kids to smile and
6:12
Speaker 4: laugh and have a good time, that is a major W.
6:15
Speaker 2: I love me a trip to Shields.
6:17
Speaker 1: It is kind of fun just to fun the goofy silly,
6:20
Speaker 1: funny things in there.
6:20
Speaker 4: They won't go on the ferris wheel with me, and
6:24
Speaker 4: I don't know what they're Yeah, I don't know what
6:25
Speaker 4: their aversion is to that.
6:27
Speaker 3: They're just not into it. I don't know. But for me,
6:29
Speaker 3: every time I go, I'm taking a ride on that thing.
6:31
Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe they don't want to be Maybe it's not
6:33
Speaker 1: that they're like afraid of heights or anything. Maybe they
6:35
Speaker 1: just don't want to be seen on the ferris wheel
6:36
Speaker 1: with their mod That's.
6:37
Speaker 3: What it is. Yeah, but I'm a cool mom.
6:40
Speaker 1: Yeah, I tell you what, Angie, you might be the
6:43
Speaker 1: coolest mom on earth. But sadly, I don't know if
6:46
Speaker 1: you'll ever be as cool as a fifteen year old.
6:48
Speaker 2: Just ask them, you know what I mean?
6:50
Speaker 3: That's true.
6:50
Speaker 2: Yeah, I got that same problem too me.
6:52
Speaker 3: I won't be as cool as a nine year old either.
6:54
Speaker 1: That's see, this little victory now turned into it.
6:58
Speaker 3: No, now I feel bad. Well, it was a great time.
7:01
Speaker 3: What about you, Gabe.
7:02
Speaker 1: I got home yesterday from work and let me tell you,
7:07
Speaker 1: I opened up my fridge. I had a little half
7:10
Speaker 1: leftover Jersey Mike sandwich and then there were these leftovers
7:15
Speaker 1: in the fridge. It was like this chicken Teriaki vegetable
7:19
Speaker 1: bowl thing, and my wife said I could eat it.
7:21
Speaker 1: I got home and had the dope, the dopus lunch
7:26
Speaker 1: of all time. That Jersey Mike sub hits so.
7:31
Speaker 2: Not better. It's not better, but it hits so good.
7:34
Speaker 1: The next day sat in the fridge for a little
7:37
Speaker 1: bit and then I dove right into this chicken Teriaki
7:40
Speaker 1: vegetable bowl. I was useless to Planet Earth by about
7:44
Speaker 1: two o'clock yesterday, absolutely usefully.
7:46
Speaker 3: Did you heat up the chicken KARAOKEI?
7:49
Speaker 4: Yeah, oh yeah, okay, YEA curious about how people do
7:53
Speaker 4: their leftovers?
7:54
Speaker 1: Yeah, and Cory sh'll eat leftover. She's not like one
7:56
Speaker 1: of those like no leftovers kind of people. Yeah, she
7:58
Speaker 1: just didn't want it. I housed both those things in
8:02
Speaker 1: i'd say thirteen minutes flat and could not move for
8:06
Speaker 1: the foreseeable six hours.
8:09
Speaker 2: You definitely.
8:10
Speaker 4: When we do little victories, you know, you always seem
8:13
Speaker 4: happy about whatever the victory is. But when it's a
8:16
Speaker 4: food related one, the passion in your voice and the
8:20
Speaker 4: sparkle in your eye game.
8:22
Speaker 1: It's unmatched. On the way, we've got Taylor Swift. We
8:25
Speaker 1: have the tea coming up as well. Here on Big
8:27
Speaker 1: ninety eight point seven. I tell you what if you
8:29
Speaker 1: go to Jersey Mike's today, all right, get the ultra
8:32
Speaker 1: big sandwich, the gigantic save yourself half and put that
8:36
Speaker 1: bad boy in the fridge and have it for lunch
8:38
Speaker 1: when you get home.
8:38
Speaker 2: From work, or dinner when you get home from work.
8:40
Speaker 2: Your life will be changed.
8:41
Speaker 3: You convinced me.
8:48
Speaker 1: Not that exciting, right, No, baby, arriving or anything. But
8:53
Speaker 1: I have a baby shower I have to go to
8:55
Speaker 1: this weekend, and that maybe I don't like that you
8:58
Speaker 1: said it like that baby shower I have to go
9:01
Speaker 1: to is for my very own baby.
9:02
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh. Yes, baby shower time. But it's not
9:07
Speaker 3: here in town.
9:08
Speaker 2: Right, No, it will not.
9:09
Speaker 1: So. Corey is from southeastern Minnesota, right, I grew up
9:13
Speaker 1: in Minneapolis.
9:14
Speaker 2: We are up here in Fargo.
9:16
Speaker 1: It just happens to sort of work out for everybody
9:19
Speaker 1: that a lot of these big family events are just
9:22
Speaker 1: held in Minneapolis. It's a solid kind of halfway point
9:26
Speaker 1: for just about everybody. And we both have family in
9:28
Speaker 1: Minneapolis too. But I'm not going. We will be well
9:32
Speaker 1: that's cool.
9:32
Speaker 3: No, I did.
9:33
Speaker 4: I wanted to go, but I just I can't make
9:36
Speaker 4: it work with my schedule with the kids and stuff
9:38
Speaker 4: this weekend.
9:39
Speaker 3: But the intention was there, and I was invited.
9:42
Speaker 4: For the record, that's right. But I'm excited for you
9:45
Speaker 4: to have baby shower time. I did get stuff off
9:48
Speaker 4: of the registry. So just cause I'm not going doesn't
9:50
Speaker 4: mean I'm not gonna hook you guys up.
9:51
Speaker 1: Okay, I appreciate that. Yeah, and uh, Angie, let me know,
9:54
Speaker 1: yesterday she had two what.
9:56
Speaker 3: Did you have to tequila soda?
9:58
Speaker 2: To tequila sodas?
10:00
Speaker 1: And then when shopping at targets, so I know, Angie
10:02
Speaker 1: blew a boatload of money on whatever that baby registry
10:06
Speaker 1: gift is. But we will be going, and we were
10:09
Speaker 1: gonna kind of I think these have gotten more popular.
10:11
Speaker 2: Maybe they haven't.
10:12
Speaker 1: I don't know anything about babies other than from my
10:14
Speaker 1: dad class. But we we were going to do kind
10:18
Speaker 1: of a joint baby shower, just I could go, my
10:21
Speaker 1: buddies could go, Cory's family and her girlfriends could go
10:24
Speaker 1: in my whatever. And it turns out Corey has a
10:28
Speaker 1: giant family and I just have a lot of friends,
10:30
Speaker 1: and we could not invite like one hundred and fifty.
10:34
Speaker 1: I mean, we're not trying to have like a wedding, right,
10:37
Speaker 1: And so we decided to split it up where the
10:39
Speaker 1: girls will kind of be at this one thing and
10:41
Speaker 1: the guys are all going to my buddy's house and
10:44
Speaker 1: we're just gonna sit in the backyard and I don't know,
10:46
Speaker 1: grill stuff and drink beers and and the baby bring diapers.
10:50
Speaker 2: That's the one rule.
10:51
Speaker 3: Oh, I love that.
10:52
Speaker 1: That is the one rule for the fellas the easiest,
10:55
Speaker 1: most simple thing on the entire registry to wa buy.
10:59
Speaker 1: You don't have to go look up some charts. You
11:01
Speaker 1: don't just buy a pack of diapers. Yeah, don't care
11:03
Speaker 1: what size, don't care any of that, because you'll buy
11:06
Speaker 1: them all exactly. So we made it very simple, and
11:09
Speaker 1: I was kind of wondering, is that normal. Do people
11:12
Speaker 1: do baby showers this way or are they mostly just
11:15
Speaker 1: kind of a lady's thing. I've only been invited to
11:17
Speaker 1: a handful of baby showers in my life, and Gary's
11:19
Speaker 1: been to about one hundred.
11:20
Speaker 4: So I feel like most of the time it is
11:22
Speaker 4: just a girl thing. But I went to a baby
11:25
Speaker 4: shower when I was pregnant with Aiden, and I was
11:28
Speaker 4: five months pregnant and my my the baby daddy, he
11:33
Speaker 4: was like, we're gonna go to my coworker's baby shower.
11:36
Speaker 4: And I was like, you're going though, and he's like, yeah,
11:38
Speaker 4: it's co ed, And I thought, what does that even
11:40
Speaker 4: look like because this is in twenty ten and I
11:42
Speaker 4: had never heard of a co ed baby shower. Yeah,
11:44
Speaker 4: So when I get there, it's just in one room,
11:48
Speaker 4: you drop off your gift, and then in the backyard
11:52
Speaker 4: she had.
11:52
Speaker 3: A DJ, and she had yeah, and she had.
11:56
Speaker 4: A margarita machine and then just like an open bar
11:59
Speaker 4: situation and a bunch of food and that was her baby.
12:02
Speaker 3: Shower and so it sounds like a party out.
12:06
Speaker 4: And so we didn't play any baby shower games. Low key,
12:09
Speaker 4: maybe this is unpopular. I hate baby shower games, like,
12:12
Speaker 4: I hate them so much. Ok, I'm weirdly good at
12:14
Speaker 4: them and I usually win, but I don't like baby
12:17
Speaker 4: shower games.
12:17
Speaker 3: And at my baby shower I didn't for Aiden. I
12:20
Speaker 3: was like, can we just skip the games?
12:22
Speaker 4: But my mom and Tim's mom said no, we're doing games.
12:27
Speaker 3: But I thought that was pretty cool.
12:29
Speaker 4: So then I was bummed that I was five months
12:30
Speaker 4: pregnant because I didn't get to get in on this
12:32
Speaker 4: margarita Michelle. Yeah, but that was the first co ed
12:35
Speaker 4: one I'd ever seen, and I feel like it just
12:37
Speaker 4: really gained popularity in the twenty tens and now in
12:41
Speaker 4: the twenty twenties, like, let's not exclude anyone, Let's have
12:44
Speaker 4: a party to celebrate that the baby's coming. And honestly,
12:47
Speaker 4: as long as you bring a gift, you're golden.
12:49
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's not going to be really any games for
12:51
Speaker 1: us fellas over at my buddy Jake's house. Other than
12:54
Speaker 1: that cup me, well, yeah, bags, and can we finish
12:57
Speaker 1: these hundred bush lights?
12:59
Speaker 2: So it'll be the only rule on that.
13:02
Speaker 1: And I will say Angie's very nice and said she
13:04
Speaker 1: grabbed something from the registry. I got a little bit
13:06
Speaker 1: of a bone to pick with this whole baby registry
13:09
Speaker 1: gift situation.
13:11
Speaker 3: What okay, you're mad? People are getting you things?
13:15
Speaker 1: Well, every day I get home, every single day, it's
13:20
Speaker 1: very sweet. I gotta go grab a package, and every
13:22
Speaker 1: time we open it, I don't know if it Corey
13:24
Speaker 1: bought something on Amazon or it's a baby gift, right,
13:27
Speaker 1: And as of late, they have all been these baby gifts,
13:30
Speaker 1: except I'm starting to notice one thing on this packaging
13:34
Speaker 1: that I'm starting to have a bit of a beef with.
13:37
Speaker 1: What Whenever I go grab something on my front porch
13:40
Speaker 1: and I look at the who it's for, this always
13:45
Speaker 1: and only says Corey Glitten. Not one package has had
13:51
Speaker 1: my name on it, not a single one.
13:53
Speaker 2: It's like, I'm not even a part of the gift giving.
13:56
Speaker 3: Well, you were only a part of a very small
13:59
Speaker 3: portion of the pro process to make the baby. So
14:02
Speaker 3: I think your name doesn't need to be honest.
14:04
Speaker 1: That's right, very quick process, Yes, minutes met. The Supermom

15:48
Speaker 1: All right, leave that voicemail for mom, And we're excited
15:50
Speaker 1: to hear all those next week here on Big ninety
15:52
Speaker 1: eight point seven, before we.
15:56
Speaker 2: Dive into is it legal?
15:57
Speaker 1: This is very funny from Christy on the Big ninety
15:59
Speaker 1: eight point seven Inner Circle group on Facebook. She said,
16:02
Speaker 1: those street sweepers travel in packs. I just left the
16:06
Speaker 1: car wash when I encountered them. What a mess, so
16:08
Speaker 1: much dust. Bad timing for sure, my poor car and
16:12
Speaker 1: lungs well.
16:13
Speaker 3: Man right after a corh.
16:15
Speaker 1: Which is really funny because the other day I was
16:18
Speaker 1: stuck in a caravan of street sweepers, which I know
16:22
Speaker 1: they're doing their job. They're trying to keep the streets cleaner.
16:24
Speaker 1: That's why I am not complaining at all. But those
16:26
Speaker 1: things can travel at about seven miles an hour. I mean,
16:29
Speaker 1: they're very slow moving vehicles. And when you're stuck in
16:33
Speaker 1: a caravan, I was wondering, Ay, could you pass these
16:35
Speaker 1: or no?
16:36
Speaker 5: In the world of rules in gray areas, one morning
16:38
Speaker 5: show dares to ask the hard questions.
16:40
Speaker 2: Is it illegal for a child to wear that much makeup?
16:43
Speaker 2: Is it legal?
16:44
Speaker 5: I understand, I understand it's funny as all can get out,
16:47
Speaker 5: but is it even legal on Big ninety eight point seven?
16:51
Speaker 2: Yeah?
16:52
Speaker 1: So I was driving on the road behind Walmart. If
16:54
Speaker 1: I'm not I think it's sixty fourth I can't remember
16:57
Speaker 1: off the top of my head. But and the worst
16:59
Speaker 1: place to get stuck behind the street sweepers, because it's
17:01
Speaker 1: just there's one lane and one lane and they can't
17:03
Speaker 1: go around them. There's cars coming at you, and there's
17:06
Speaker 1: two yellow lines.
17:08
Speaker 2: And I was stuck with.
17:09
Speaker 1: Street sweeper, street sweeper, street sweeper, big garbage truck looking
17:14
Speaker 1: thing with its lights on, and then me and then
17:17
Speaker 1: street sweeper behind me. It was quite a group, all right,
17:21
Speaker 1: And I was wondering, Wow, I don't need to pass these,
17:24
Speaker 1: but if I wanted to, could I? Apparently it is
17:27
Speaker 1: not illegal to pass a street sweeper here in Fargo.
17:32
Speaker 1: This is also a great time to remind you that
17:34
Speaker 1: I am not a lawyer, and for any real legal advice,
17:36
Speaker 1: all right, maybe contact them or your local police. Okay,
17:39
Speaker 1: but you can technically pass them. You can also microwave
17:44
Speaker 1: fish in the office break room, but the rest of
17:46
Speaker 1: your office place is gonna hate you for it, all right.
17:48
Speaker 1: City officials have said, basically, hey, legally sure, morally very
17:54
Speaker 1: questionable because those street sweepers, they.
17:57
Speaker 2: Crawl along in about eight miles an hour, just minding
17:59
Speaker 2: their business, doing their job.
18:00
Speaker 1: They're cleaning up after all of us, and they're like
18:03
Speaker 1: a giant, slow moving roomba.
18:07
Speaker 2: It's trying to do their job.
18:08
Speaker 1: And when you fly around them, you're basically kind of saying, hey,
18:12
Speaker 1: get out of my way, and I don't care about
18:14
Speaker 1: your safety.
18:15
Speaker 3: Oh okay.
18:16
Speaker 1: It's kind of like they say, you really shouldn't pass
18:18
Speaker 1: a snowplow, Like, technically you can do it, but should you.
18:22
Speaker 3: It's so it's frowned upon.
18:23
Speaker 1: It's frowned upon. It's not illegal, but it is frowned upon.
18:27
Speaker 1: So if you do pass one. Just know somewhere here
18:30
Speaker 1: in the FM area, a street sweeper operator is judging
18:33
Speaker 1: you as he puts along at nine miles an hour.
18:46
Speaker 1: I gotta be honest, there was something I learned yesterday,
18:48
Speaker 1: probably way way, way too late in life. But what
18:52
Speaker 1: if not this show, Angie, where I can just admit
18:54
Speaker 1: my faults and get things off my chest.
18:56
Speaker 3: It makes me feel better.
18:58
Speaker 1: I would assume that be correct. Yesterday, at thirty five
19:03
Speaker 1: and like a quarter years old. Uh huh, I didn't
19:06
Speaker 1: know what RSVP meant. I know what it means. It
19:10
Speaker 1: means they want you to reply to the thing. Yeah,
19:14
Speaker 1: but I didn't actually know what RSVP stood for, kind
19:18
Speaker 1: of like you know, VIP is clearly a vacuum instruction pro.
19:22
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, gave you away.
19:24
Speaker 1: But RSVP, I learned is respond how do you say this?
19:29
Speaker 2: Respond to CIVU play? Yeah that's pretty good.
19:32
Speaker 3: Yeah.
19:32
Speaker 2: Yeah, well it took me thirty five years to learn that.
19:35
Speaker 1: And I am not the only one who woke up
19:37
Speaker 1: today and did not know what RSVP stood for.
19:40
Speaker 2: Okay, I promise you I'm not alone in this, right.
19:42
Speaker 4: I like that I had one over on you. I've
19:45
Speaker 4: known what that meant for years I didn't have. It's
19:48
Speaker 4: elementary school.
19:49
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I need someone to make me feel better.
19:51
Speaker 1: What's something you learned too late in life? Seven oh
19:53
Speaker 1: one two eight zero one nine eight seven. And you
19:56
Speaker 1: there's got to be something that you didn't learn until
19:59
Speaker 1: maybe a little bit later on in life.
20:01
Speaker 4: This haunts me because I had never felt so stupid.
20:05
Speaker 3: I was dating this guy in high school.
20:08
Speaker 4: I was seventeen, and we were in his car and
20:12
Speaker 4: I looked at him and I very earnestly asked if
20:16
Speaker 4: Chevy and Chevrolet were the same thing.
20:18
Speaker 2: Oh, wow, that's pretty good. That's pretty good.
20:23
Speaker 4: The genuine expression of oh I'm dating an idiot that
20:27
Speaker 4: flashed across his face before he you know, composed himself
20:31
Speaker 4: and was like, yeah, they're the same thing.
20:34
Speaker 3: Chevy is short for Chevrolet. I felt really dumb.
20:37
Speaker 1: Wow, I mean, at least mine's in a different language.
20:40
Speaker 1: Good miss, We have a big shot out here to Bethany,
20:44
Speaker 1: And I got to give Bethany some credit. It's tough
20:46
Speaker 1: to admit that you learn something way too late in life.
20:49
Speaker 1: It can be a little embarrassing, but it's good, you know,
20:50
Speaker 1: it's good to go through some adversity Bethany. Bethany said,
20:53
Speaker 1: when you're told not to operate heavy machinery with certain medications,
20:59
Speaker 1: I didn't realize they meant cars. She always assumed they
21:02
Speaker 1: meant bulldozers or like construction equipment.
21:05
Speaker 3: Did you learn something new to I just learned that
21:07
Speaker 3: right now.
21:08
Speaker 4: I guess your car is a heavy machiner.
21:11
Speaker 3: My mind is blood.
21:13
Speaker 1: And then Tiffany just said, I thought the Mount Oh, Tiffany, Tiffany,
21:19
Speaker 1: I thought the Mount Rushmore faces occurred naturally by coincidence.
21:24
Speaker 1: Can't believe I just admitted that. And then finally this
21:29
Speaker 1: one goes out to Ryan. He said, I thought McGraw
21:33
Speaker 1: McGraw Hill textbooks were made by Tim McGraw and Faith Hill.
21:37
Speaker 2: That actually that works. I don't think that's where happened.
21:40
Speaker 3: Yeah, no, I think you're okay on.
21:41
Speaker 1: That run and people making a book series. It's plausible
21:44
Speaker 1: one thousand percent. What is something you're willing to admit
21:47
Speaker 1: you maybe learned a little late in life, and don't
21:50
Speaker 1: lie to me.
21:50
Speaker 2: Text me at seven oh one to two eight.
21:51
Speaker 1: Zero one nine eight seven if you didn't know what
21:54
Speaker 1: RSVP actually stood for either, and you can use VIP
22:00
Speaker 1: Professional Vacuum Cleaner at any point today. I never thought
22:06
Speaker 1: I would find this debate to be so interesting because
22:10
Speaker 1: I don't know if you can really learn anything about
22:12
Speaker 1: anyone you know, regardless of what their answer is. Okay,
22:17
Speaker 1: but there is a hot.
22:18
Speaker 2: Debate on the internet streets right now.
22:21
Speaker 3: What is the debate?
22:22
Speaker 1: Which direction do you face when you're taking a shower?
22:27
Speaker 1: Do you face forward and let the water like kind
22:29
Speaker 1: of hit your chest or do you face the other
22:32
Speaker 1: way and the water kind of runs down your back?
22:35
Speaker 4: It actually does say something about a person depending on
22:38
Speaker 4: the answer, because if you want to solidify your position
22:42
Speaker 4: as a cycle path, then you face the shower head. No,
22:47
Speaker 4: you always have to have your back to it. That's
22:50
Speaker 4: how I stand in the shower. The shower head is
22:53
Speaker 4: the water is beating down my back, not the front.
22:56
Speaker 3: Who does that? I'm concerned that this is a debate.
23:01
Speaker 1: I think my dad faces toward the shower when because
23:04
Speaker 1: my sister called me, I'm not even.
23:06
Speaker 2: Killing what wasn't he?
23:07
Speaker 3: And nom? That makes sense.
23:10
Speaker 1: My sister called me the other day randomly going, Hey,
23:12
Speaker 1: which way do you face in the shower? And I
23:15
Speaker 1: was like, well, Molly, I don't know if you need
23:16
Speaker 1: to know my shower habits, I guess, but apparently my
23:20
Speaker 1: dad said he lets the water hit him like in
23:22
Speaker 1: the face.
23:22
Speaker 2: He's just waterboarding himself.
23:24
Speaker 3: That is crazy.
23:26
Speaker 2: Talk to me what I did.
23:28
Speaker 1: Post this on the Big ninety eight point seven Facebook page,
23:31
Speaker 1: and I think for the most part, a lot of
23:34
Speaker 1: people are saying back toward the water for most of
23:38
Speaker 1: the shower.
23:38
Speaker 2: Then you got to hit the occasional spin.
23:41
Speaker 3: Okay, that makes sense.
23:42
Speaker 4: I just I can't imagine getting into the shower and
23:45
Speaker 4: the first thing I do is face the shower head.
23:48
Speaker 1: No, yeah, Tarn said, So we all don't just treat
23:52
Speaker 1: ourselves like a rotisserie.
23:53
Speaker 2: Chicken doing some spin thing around.
23:56
Speaker 1: And then I really like Dale Dale, which direction do
23:59
Speaker 1: you face in the shower? Of course, leave it up
24:02
Speaker 1: to Dale. Dale faces south, which is awesome.
24:05
Speaker 3: Wait, I don't know what that means. He faces south
24:08
Speaker 3: the direction self? You know, I'm directionally challenged. I don't
24:12
Speaker 3: know what that would mean.
24:14
Speaker 1: Now you might be thinking, oh, there's no answer to
24:17
Speaker 1: this question. How could one be right or wrong? It
24:19
Speaker 1: turns out there is a right answer according to experts.
24:25
Speaker 4: Okay, well, if the expert is not on my side,
24:27
Speaker 4: I'm saying they're not an expert.
24:29
Speaker 1: What are their requirements to being a shower expert? You
24:32
Speaker 1: think you just got a.
24:32
Speaker 3: Shower, you gotta take them. Yeah, right.
24:36
Speaker 1: Experts do say that neither forward or backwards.
24:40
Speaker 2: Is really wrong.
24:41
Speaker 1: Okay, but you don't want to face the same way
24:45
Speaker 1: the entire time or for too long. You should kind
24:48
Speaker 1: of rotate and turn and get different parts of your
24:51
Speaker 1: body some of that warm water.
24:53
Speaker 3: Wait, why not for too long?
24:54
Speaker 4: Because when it's time for an everything shower, I am
24:57
Speaker 4: not facing that shower head for a big, very long time.
25:01
Speaker 1: I might have something to do with just drying out
25:02
Speaker 1: your skin, I would guess.
25:04
Speaker 4: Oh, okay, that makes more sense to me.
25:07
Speaker 1: Just know the next time that you are in the shower,
25:09
Speaker 1: Dale is also showering, and he's facing South Dakota.
25:18
Speaker 5: Starting off the day with something good. This is Gabe's
25:22
Speaker 5: good news on Big ninety eight point seven.
25:26
Speaker 1: Retired Fargo police canine Blue is on the mend and
25:31
Speaker 1: recovering at home after successful surgery. Thanks to an outpouring
25:36
Speaker 1: of community support, Blue, of Belgian Malamoa, who served more
25:40
Speaker 1: than eight years on the force, recently underwent surgery for
25:43
Speaker 1: double hernias after experiencing discomfort.
25:46
Speaker 2: We've talked about Blue before here on Big ninety eight
25:48
Speaker 2: point seven.
25:49
Speaker 1: Before and his handler Sam said, Blue is doing well,
25:52
Speaker 1: spending his days resting, recovering, and yes, he sadly has
25:55
Speaker 1: to rock that doggy cone of shame for bb go
26:00
Speaker 1: fund me. It raised more than fifteen thousand dollars to
26:02
Speaker 1: cover the procedure, leaving Sam humbled by generosity. Now, with
26:06
Speaker 1: money left over, he's looking into ways to pay it
26:09
Speaker 1: forward to help other retired knines right here in our community.
26:13
Speaker 1: And in case you're wondering, Blue just celebrated his tenth
26:16
Speaker 1: birthday with a low key day full of extra scratches,
26:21
Speaker 1: toys and a relaxing walks hard I love him. How
26:25
Speaker 1: nice of everyone here in the FM area to try
26:26
Speaker 1: to help out Blue and Sam of course, And just
26:29
Speaker 1: a very sweet story about a dog who deserves all
26:31
Speaker 1: the love.
26:32
Speaker 2: Just like every other dog.
26:34
Speaker 1: Broken crons, they still color and the world is full
26:36
Speaker 1: of nice people. If you can't find one, you gotta
26:38
Speaker 1: be one.
