K103 Plays The Mountain's Best Movies Now give Me My Monkey...

This has always made me Laugh - it was a contest they ran some while back in Moncton - Where the Radio station would call your house and you'd have to answer by saying "K103 plays Moncton's best music now show me the money" and you'd win $100000 or something like that. I think it must have been the start to many awkward telephone conversations, but money makes people do stupid things - as for the post title - that's what someone would say when they messed up the phrase - it was part of the ad campaign around the contest- Always made me laugh.

When I was in Grade 12 I was the co-Chair for the FHS Safe Grad - which turned out awesome- and as a part of my duties we had to go down to the radio station (CIHI - 1260 on your am dial) and do publicity spots to encourage our classmates to attend the overnight, alcohol free event. The Spot was fairly simple - but I kept messing up - first I said "Saf" instead of "Safe", then I said "Grade" instead of "Grad" - and by the end of 20 or so takes I had managed to somehow say all the words (including my own name) incorrectly - so I went for one more try - I started "Hey I'm Skip macrame co cheese of this year's Saf Grade committee..." Needless to say that my spot never made the air - I did get some good laughs from those that were there though, which is something.

We're off to Moncton this morning to do some Christmas Shopping and celebrate Trevor's birthday - hopefully the roads clear up soon. I've been remiss as of late I've missed a pile of Birthdays - so here's my atonement - Happy Be-lated birthdays to Lauren Madeline Ayotte, Emily Manuel, North , Robyn and Trixie...
