Valid text entries received during the thirty (30) minute period after each cue-to-text sounder (as determined by the Station in its sole discretion) will be entered into the Grand Prize drawing. Time Delay Between Over-the-Air Analog Signal and Internet Broadcast: Due to the time delay that exists between the Station’s analog over-the-air signal and the Station’s online webcast, listeners who listen to the Station online may hear the cue to text later than listeners listening to the Station’s analog over-the-air signal. As a result, the odds of an online listener entering this Contest on-air may be diminished. Standard text messaging rates, as established by an individual’s wireless carrier, may apply, and Station assumes no responsibility for any fees or charges incurred for and associated with any text message sent to or from Station.  By entering the Contest using this method, you consent to receive a bounce back confirmation text. Any and all fees arising out of the transmission of a text message shall be the sole responsibility of the entrant.  Limit one (1) entry per person per phone number. Multiple participants are not permitted to share the same telephone number. Any attempt by any participant to submit more than one (1) entry by using multiple/different telephone phone numbers, identities, or any other methods will void that participant from further participation in the Contest.  By submission of a text message entry in this Contest, entrants hereby expressly consent to the receipt of a confirmatory bounce-back message related to this Contest.

Any attempt by any participant to submit more than one (1) entry by using multiple/different email addresses, identities, registrations and logins, or any other methods will void that entry and the participant may be disqualified.  Use of any automated system to participate is prohibited and will result in disqualification. Station is not responsible for lost, late, incomplete, invalid, unintelligible, inappropriate or misdirected registrations, all of which will be disqualified.  In the event of a dispute as to any registration, the authorized account holder of the email address used to register will be deemed to be the participant. The “authorized account holder” is the natural person assigned the telephone number by the wireless carrier or an email address by an Internet access provider, online service provider or other organization responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted address.  Potential winner may be required to show proof of being the authorized account holder. All entries become the sole and exclusive property of Station and will not be returned.  Station reserves the right to contact entrants and all other individuals whose email address is submitted as part of this promotion.  No mail-in entries will be accepted.

Winner Selection. On Thursday, August 5, 2021 after each hourly Contest Period closes, as outlined in Section 3, Station will select one (1) entry for the prize in a random drawing from among all valid entries of each hourly contest.

The comments range from people feeling like they’ve let their parents down by their physical appearance to people who feel like their parents just don’t like them. Then, there’s this post:

Here’s Everything You Can’t Get Right Now

Supply chain shortages are wrecking havoc across the entire country. CNN Business reports that among the biggest shortages in the country are coffee, cars, computer chips, and jet fuel. Those items simply impact all of our lives. Also, as Vietnam continues to be ravaged by COVID, Nike now finds themselves with a serious shortage problem on their hands.

Nike said it is prioritizing the health and safety of its employees and suppliers and expects its suppliers to do the same to “prioritize the health and livelihoods of their employees.”

“Self-Love” Could Boost Your Immune System to Fight COVID-19

Unfortunately, touching oneself will not be the difference between catching Covid and not, as there are many factors that influence a person’s risk of getting the disease. But according to one specialist in hormone therapy, flicking the bean could help act as a defense mechanism and could greatly boost your immune system. It’s why we’re all as strong as an ox, we can’t keep our hands off of ourselves. One small but promising study of 11 men – who were awkwardly told to masturbate while researchers took blood tests – suggests so. Published in 2004, it showed masturbation caused a temporary spike in immune cells, including killer cells that fight viruses.

Please, let us know if this works!

There’s A Convention of People Acting Like Lambs

We all have our thing that gets us going. For some, it’s chocolate and roses, for others it’s gathering in a public area and acting like a lamb. We’re not here to judge. Well, maybe we are a little bit. This is a level of dedication that we are simply shocked by.

Dexter Holland of The Offspring takes karaoke from the car to the cockpit

From Dexter Holland of The Offspring:

“We know everyone’s heard of Carpool Karaoke, but Cockpit Karaoke??? No one’s done that!! Since I’m a pilot, we thought it would be great if Noodles and I had some fun and got to sing along to one of our hits.”

Dude fronts one of the biggest bands in The History Of Alternative, could teach science at the college level, and now — I learn he’s a pilot, too?!?  Guess I’ll start being motivated.  But….maybe tomorrow.  — [eric]
