Hooker & Manns

Top  5 Reasons to Stay on Facebook:

1. It’s the only way to remember your Wife’s Birthday.

2. It’s a great way to stay in touch with friends & family, without actually keeping in touch with them.

3. Your thoughs are too brillant to be limited to 140 characters.

4. People are dying to see your kid’s dance recital, so you think !

5. What else are you going to do on your work computer…work?  LOL !

 

What ‘Back in the Day’ Story Will You Tell Your Kids someday?

1.  Back in my day, we used dial-up Internet.  It was slow, you got charged by the minute, you lost your connection if someone picked up a phone in the house, and it made horrible screeching noises when you connected.

2.  Back in my day, if we wanted to watch a movie, we had to drive to the video store to rent it.  If their one copy was checked out, you picked something else.  And then, when we were done, we had to rewind it so we wouldn’t get charged extra.

3.  Back in my day, if you wanted to talk to a girl, you had to call her house and talk to her parents first.

4.  Back in my day, if a kid was picking on you at school, your dad told you to go back the next day and punch him in the face . . . not file a lawsuit against him.

5.  Back in my day, if we needed directions, we had to look them up on a map before we left the house.  And if we got lost, we had to find a gas station where we could ask for directions that were probably not very good. 

 

The Beauty Habits You Ladies Admited You Don’t Want Your Guy to Know About

1.  Plucking or shaving hair on her toes.

2.  Plucking or shaving hair on her face.

3.  Plucking unwanted body hair.

4.  Waxing or dying the hair on her upper lip.

5.  Removing calluses from her feet.

6.  Wearing body-slimming underwear.

7.  Plucking her eyebrows.

8.  Waxing or shaving her bikini line.

9.  Plucking nose hair.

10.  Using cleanser, toner, and moisturizer. 

 

The Four Riskiest Places to Use Your Debit Card

1. Outdoor ATMs. Thieves can put a fake card reader over the real one, and copy the information on your card. Then there’s a little spy camera to record you entering your PIN. Instead, try to get cash from a machine that’s indoors, or from the cash back option at a store.

2. Gas Pumps. This is the same trick as listed above, but it’s even easier becuase so many gas stations are unattended at night. Some stations check their pumps every single morning because they get hit so often.

3. Online stores. Always use credit online because credit cards have much better fraud protection. Thieves can get information from your own computer using malware, hack into your network, or steal info right from the merchant.

4. Restaurants. Every time you use plastic to pay at a restaurant, a stranger takes your card out of sight for a few minutes. You, often, don’t know that person!

 

Seven Ways to Keep Your Luggage from Getting Lost, Stolen or Damaged

Hooker just got back from vacation. Thank heavens for this advice!

1. Get a 4-wheeled bag. If the bag as wheels, workers are a more likely to roll it on and off the plane rather than throw it.

2. Make sure it’s a sturdy bag and will hold up under harsh treatment.

4. Don’t do curbside check-in. That’s another layer to the process of getting your bag onto the plane, thus another way for the bag to get lost.

5. Buy traveler’s insurance. Most airlines have a coverage limit of $3400, but you can insure your bag against loss, delay or damage.

6. Get a bag with anti-theft technology. There are tracking devices that give you your bag’s location, and some bags are made without zippers so they’re harder to break into.

7. Just use a carry-on! But, if they make you check it at the gate, remove anything valuable before you hand it over.

What personality trait do YOU absolutely hate?

We’re not talking about one of your own traits; those are all perfect, obviously. :) We’re talking about the little horrible things other people do. According to our survey, these are the seven personality traits people hate the most:

1. People who never leave room in a conversation for you to say anything. You can barely even get in an, “Oh yeah.”

2. People who always play the victim, and are never personally responsible for any of the bad things that happen to them.

3. People who have to one-up everything you say.

4. People who are condescending.

5. Close minded people. They’ll fight for their position, won’t listen to anything you have to say. It’s as if they hate knowledge!

6. People who admit they’re wrong but won’t change.

7. People who are chronically late (like Keagle)!

Topeka’s #1 Morning Show  – Hooker & Manns – made good on a wager with an Indianapolis radio station over the outcome of the Kansas City Chiefs / Indianapolis Colts Game.

“If the Chiefs won, the personality in Indianapolis – Bernie Eagan from B105.7 – would have run around the Indiana Capital Building dressed as a KC Chief shouting Chiefs win!” said Majic 107.7 Morning Show Host John Lee Hooker. 

“However, that didn’t happen,” adds Majic Morning Show co-host Mike Manns.  “So a member of our show ran around our newly renovated Capital Building making horse noises while riding a toy stick horse.” added Manns.

Seven Random Things that Influence the Kind of Dreams You Have

1. Your favorite sleeping position (that’s the one you usually wake up in). If you sleep on your left side, you have more nightmare. If you sleep on your right side, you have the most relaxing dreams and feel best in the morning. Stomach sleepers tend to have erotic or perverse dreams.

2. Whether or not you had music lessons as a kid. People who had music lessons early while their brains were still developing usually have music in their dreams. Sometimes, that can be music you’ve never even heard before!

3. The kind of cheese you like. Cheddar cheese can inspire peaceful dreams. Blue cheese, especially the pungent stuff, causes freaky dreams.

4. The planet’s magnetic field can influence your dreams. If the earth’s geomagnetic activity is calm, your body can produce more melatonin – the sleep hormone – so you sleep better and have more vivid dreams.

5. What time you go to bed can influence your dreams. Night owls have more nightmares. The theory is that if you go to bed late, you’re waking up earlier than you naturally would… probably in the middle of a deep sleep, and that’s when intense dreams tend to happen.

6. Your video game avatar can influence your dreams. People who play a lot of video games (a.k.a. Amber Lee’s husband), have more control and awareness in their dreams. It’s almost as if they’re playing a game character.

7. And, think about that one thing that you want to avoid…. Go ahead. Make yourself think about that one thing you like to NOT think about. That’s the thing that is pretty much guaranteed to show up in one of your dreams.

 

Hide-And-Seek Doesn’t Usually End Like This

A naked man in Austrailia had to be freed from a washing machine last week after he became stuck while trying to hide from his partner. Emergency crews used olive oil to grease him up and slide him out of the top loader. In this case, it was a good thing he was in the buff!

 

Bigfoot Is Real…

And he likes pork ribs from Wal-Mart! At least that’s what this San Antonio man claims. Rick Dyer says he shot and killed the mythical beast a year ago after luring it with some barbecue. He recently released a picture of the creature in the hopes of proving he’s telling the truth. Despite a history of perpetrating Bigfoot hoaxes, Mr. Dyer insists he’s not fooling around this time. He even plans to tour the US with Bigfoot’s body. Something tells us he’ll be putting a big foot in his mouth!

 

He said he could dance

But he can’t.   

WARNING: DO NOT VIEW IF CONSUMED FOOD WITHIN THE HOUR, ARE PREGANT OR DRINKING HEAVILY.
