Well, this is certainly awkward.  Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed
were on The Joy Behar Show, talking about their reality show and their
tumultuous relationship.  After a few insensitive remarks by Gene,
Shannon actually walks off the set!  You can KISS her goodbye, Gene.

Summer Physique, Pachyderm Panic, Friendsday Wed. 6-8-11, Baby Tiger
Monday 06-13-2011 5:58am MT
Summer Physique

Are you currently working on your "summer physique?"  I hear ya!
Well, we all know there are certain foods we should avoid like the
plague when we're trying to slim down.  However, there are a few
food culprits you may not know about.  Ones that can bloat you
right out of that polka dot two-piece if you're not careful!

Yahoo! has the details.  See the foods/beverages by clicking here.



Pachyderm Panic

Wow, this is incredible.  Two wild elephants wandered into a town called Mysore
in India
and went on a serious rampage.  Apparently, hundreds of people are killed
every year in
India by wild animals looking for food as their habitat shrinks.  One man
was actually
gored by one of the elephants and didn't survive.  You can see more
pictures here.  


The elephants were eventually tranquilized and chained to some other elephants
to calm them down.  They will be released back into the wild
in the coming week.






Friendsday Wednesday 6-8-11

Wednesday means it is time to make a new friend in this great country of ours.

Baby Tiger

Grey Stafford from the Wildlife World Zoo & Aquarium was in studio with his
little friend, Orion. Orion is a baby tiger that weighs only about 12 pounds right
now but will quickly grow to be more than 200 pounds.

 

Click Here to hear Orion's funny exchange with Beth on the air.


If you haven't been to the Wildlife World Zoo & Aquarium, well, what are you
waiting for?
There's so much to see including outdoor exhibits with the zoo's
5th ride attraction, a Log Flume Ride.  The Wildlife World Zoo is located at
165 Avenue & Northen.


Celebrity Chefs' Home Kitchens

Ever wonder what master chef's like Guy Fieri and Paula Deen's kitchen's might
look like?  And no, not their TV set kitchens,
we're talking about where the magic
REALLY happens. 

Yahoo! recently visited the kitchen's of a few celebrity chef's including Martha
Stewart and the Barefoot Contessa.  See the 
pictures here!


What's the deal with my Cucumber??
Friday 06-10-2011 11:07am MT




Well, this is pretty strange.  This is a photo I took in my garden yesterday.  Look
at this cucumber!  One side of it is entirely white, and we don't know why.  We
think maybe it has something to do with uneven sun exposure.  What do you
think it could be?  I'm stumped!  What a pickle!  e-mail me.
