75% of Americans think people are getting ruder when it comes to talking on their phones… i.e. grocery stores, fast food, & elevators… Do you agree? Where would you consider it rude to be talking on your phone?

There is an ice cream parlor in London that is now serving ice cream made from woman’s breast milk. …Yeah… Also, meat suppliers are having trouble keeping up, so they are saying that bugs will most likely be the meat of the future. Imagine eating a grasshopper taco…?
So, fill in the blank: “I put _____ in my mouth.”

Yi guys,

I was given a gift card from one of my relatives for my birthday. About a month later when I went to use it the clerk told me it had a balance of zero. I said, “how could that be when it was just given to me a month ago?” She told me that a lot of people re-gift used gift cards as presents. How do you think I should handle this? I don’t want to sound shallow but, at the same time, I want to know why they gave me a used gift card?

Signed,
Isabell

When Slacker was in Brazil they did White Elephant for Christmas. Well, one of the gifts was an elephant fountain that he loved and when he got it home there was no pump in it… It doesn’t do anything at all, but sit there on the table. So, what does he do now…? Fly back to Brazil to get the pump?

What would you do in this situation? Can you confront someone for giving you a bad gift?

Stacy came on the air last week to tell us that she has been given a hall pass by her husband. In other words, she has permission to cheat. She started her hall pass on Friday and today we got to catch up with her on how it’s going… Over the weekend she did meet some guys but it just felt like cheating to her, so she didn’t do anything. However, she is not giving up and she will continue to go out for the rest of the weeks, so there’s still a possibility…

A survey from 20th Century Fox has revealed that parents are three times more likely to allow their adult sons to move back home rather than their daughters. Talk about a momma’s boy… Do you know one?

Slacker calls his mom every night after he leaves work… Is he being a momma’s boy?

Charlie Sheen took two drug tests. The result? Clean.  Sheen flew back to the United States from his vacation in the Bahamas to take a blood test for Radar Online, administrated by a court-certified California laboratory. The test covered marijuana, cocaine, opiates, amphetamines and alcohol. The test follows up on an over-the-counter urine test taken by the actor which he also passed. The results were revealed on ABC’s Good Morning America this morning.

“The good news for Charlie Sheen as he’s watching from home is he tested negative for every single one of those tests,” Dylan Howard, senior executive editor at RadarOnline. “The blood test only goes for a window for only 24 hours. The urine tests for some 72 hours. But this is a big win for Charlie Sheen.”

It must be an overwhelming thing to win an Oscar. Not just to get up on that stage in front of an audience of thousands but to know that, like, billions, would be watching you live on TV. Plus it’s pretty much the biggest honor an actor could get. So, in that state of mind, standing front and center on the stage, clutching that golden statuette and then having to give a speech must be very daunting.That said, I have one question for you…did Christian Bale forget his wife’s name?

When he got up to accept his award for Best Actor he did something that every husband dread, it appeared to forget his wife’s name. He thanked a bunch of people and when he went to thank his wife he stammered and looked like he totally spaced out.  The camera went to his wife’s face which looked like a mixture of joy and awkwardness.

Did you see it? Did you think he was just stunned or did he forget his wife’s name?

How successful you become is mostly up to you. Success also depends on how you’re perceived by others. Numerous studies have shown looks can impact career advancement.  Some say physical appearance matters even more to employers than a cover letter.  Researchers have found that facial structure, hair color, and weight all can affect our paychecks. We can’t help our genes, but some of them may be helping us more than others. Full story here…

A Des Moines obstetrician is offering a financial incentive for couples to get busy.  Dr. Ross Valone promises to put his fee for delivering babies on Nov. 11 into an account at a local bank. The child would collect the money after turning 21.  Why? The date will be 11/11/11, which Valone looks forward to writing on birth certificates.  “It won’t happen again for 100 years,” he said.  The most likely date of conception to hit the target date was last Saturday, he said. But couples who conceive in the next week or so would have a decent shot.  For Valone, some days bring a bevy of babies. He had already delivered four by Tuesday afternoon. His fees range from about $900 to $2,000.
