Or come out to the G-town Greenway Thursday morning to sign up for Sunday’s race/walk!!!

 SOAPnet wants to get the word out on the new reality show BANK OF MOM AND DAD…sure it sounds simple and easy……yeah, you know better!!  So, the deal is, each week a twenty-something woman who is drowning in debt must pay the ultimate price … letting her parents move in! Add a financial expert to the mix and Mom and Dad will teach their darling daughter to rethink her spending habits and reform her relationship with money.

It’s Wednesday, 9/30 at 9pm Memphis time!

I feel like I just desecrated the 94.1 KQK logo by biting into a smiley face cookie.  Is that wrong?  Love this station!

Well, this morning I handed out approximately 200 roses to everyone from passers by at Poplar and Mendenhall, to First Tennessee Bank, to the bus stop, to our co-workers here at the 94.1 radio ranch.  Video is coming from Jonas in our web/video department to the KQK site soon!  (Thanks to Barkley’s Stem Shop, Nick from marketing, and Jonas from web/video.)

That said, it feels odd doing a radio show in a tuxedo!

Today, giving out free roses from Barkley’s Stem shop was fun, but interesting.  People are trained not to approach strangers, even if they are dressed in a tuxedo.  “What do I have to pay?”  “Here’s $10 buck for charity!”  “No thank you, I don’t want a free rose.”  Just kind of interesting.

In my TOP 5 artists of All-Time lands… Bruce Springsteen!  Today is his 60th Birthday!  

Today @ 1 p.m. we’ll salute “The Boss”!

Even if it’s a doctored video, it’s still fun!

See it here!

We were talking pizza today on the Classic Hits 94.1 morning show with Steve Conley and Karen Perrin. 

Our discussion was prompted by a national survey that named Papa Murphy’s Take ‘N’ Bake Pizza the favorite. But we wanted to know what folks around here were thinking….  So, we took PLENTY of calls….here are many (if not all!) of the suggestions….we just got so many… both local and national.  So, in no particular order…….

Café Piazza in Collierville

Memphis Pizza Café

Wise Guys in Southaven

Pizza Hut

Mama Mia’s

Victors Pizza in Holly Springs

Broadway Pizza

Skimos

Exlines

Ciao Bella

Johnny Bruscos

Old Venice

Pete N Sams

Colletta’s

Papa Johns

Italia in Desoto County

Pietro’s (sp?)

1) I never thought I’d….enjoy gardening, but as of this month I have now  successfully planted 10 shrubs. 3 are successfully flowering azaleas.

2) I never though I’d……let my boys play ice hockey…not because I am over protective, I just don’t want the 45-minute drive to the ice rink. We are signing up my nine year old this week.

3) I never thought I’d ….care that my boys don’t get straight A’s. I want my boys to get all A’s, nary a B. A mom can dream can’t she.

4) And finally, I never really thought of myself as competitive, however, in our KQK Challenge I tied the listener and Steve decided that meant tie goes to the listener. Cool, give him the prize, but I want a tie in my column, not a loss! Also, while I tell my kids it’s not whether they win or lose it’s how they play the game…I must admit I enjoy when our team wins. Just being honest!

Have a great day.
