Friday Friday Friday!

Hey everybody! It's Friday! If you're not excited, you should be. We have a bunch of events coming up. First, we have the Follow You tour with Brandon Heath, Leeland, and Francesca Batistelli happening on Nov. 4. The one-track demo dropoff deadline for Battle of the Bands has been extended to the weekend, so hurry and get your demos in! The winners will be announced on Nov. 2. And there's gonna be a very large, exciting, amazing prize for the winner of the Battle! Also, the Coastal Carolina Fair is going on until Nov. 7. Way-FM has a booth set up in the exhibition hall. We are Booth 99, near the consessions. Please stop by and visit with us! We also have a contest going on that you can sign up for at the booth. If you enter, you could win 4 tickets to the DecembeRadio concert on Dec. 5 at Northwood Baptist Church (WOOHOO!!!!!).

Alrighty, so we know that everyone gets tired of hearing bad news going on in the world, so here's a little bit of good news about a very honorable, respectul guy. His name is Brad Gaines. He played football for Vanderbilt in 1989. During the homecoming game that year, he collided with Chucky Mullins. Mullins' neck was broken, but Gaines got up without a scratch. Gaines visited Mullins in the hospital, where Mullins told Gaines it wasn't his fault about the accident. Gaines continued to visit Mullins until two years later, when Mullins died because of a blood clot in his lung. And now, Gaines visits Mullins' grave 3 times a year to clean it up, clear the weeds, talk, and pray. Gaines claims that he will do that til the day he dies. Most people that commented on the article at aol.com said that we definitely need more people like Brad Gaines in the world. The full article can be found at this link: http://ncaafootball.fanhouse.com/2009/10/28/twenty-years-ago-one-hit-changed-two-lives-forever/?icid=main|main|dl1|link4|http%3A%2F%2Fncaafootball.fanhouse.com%2F2009%2F10%2F28%2Ftwenty-years-ago-one-hit-changed-two-lives-forever%2F

The Christian Bear

There was a man who one day didnt feel like going to church so he decided to go hunting instead.
He was out in the bush when he was aproched from behind by a bear. He dropped his gun by accident but didnt bother to pick it up.
He ran for his life. Weaving in and out the trees with the bear on his trail. Curving around a tree he triped over its root.
He looked up and the bear looked down. The bear was about to strike at him. He put his hands together and prayed:
"Dear lord, Please let this bear be a christian."
the bear sat down on its bum and held the mans hands, closed his eyes and said: "Dear lord, Thankyou for the food that i am about to recieve"

Boeing in Charleston


Piecing together Boeing Co.'s 787 Dreamliner airplane is a task that will require thousands of local workers. And throughout the economic recession, the number of out-of-work South Carolinians who have manufacturing skills but can't find a job has swelled.
So how can people apply for the estimated 3,800 jobs that could be created during the next few years?
While the facility won't open until July 2011, company officials will begin training workers well before that point, local Boeing spokeswoman Candy Eslinger said. She did not know when the company will advertise the first positions, which will be posted on www.boeing.com/employment.
"Obviously there's no jobs posted right now," she said, "but we will be hiring in the thousands."
Tim Coyle, vice president of Boeing Charleston, would not say how many hires will be local residents, but said the labor force should include a "fair amount" of employees from Charleston and from other areas.
He also would not discuss pay, except to say that Boeing offers fair compensation based on the market.
Boeing already employs about 900 workers locally, while the neighboring Global Aeronautica plant employs about 1,600 workers.
The new Boeing facility will need engineering positions such as assembly mechanics and quality inspectors, in addition to administrative staff. Company officials couldn't provide an exact employee breakdown Wednesday.
Future employees likely will follow the screening, training and hiring process set up for Boeing and Global Aeronautica's existing facility through the state's ReadySC program. Through an agreement with those companies, the program's job screeners recruit applicants for opportunities that are posted at www.sctechjobs.com.
Applicants are evaluated based on their experience and using standard hiring programs like WorkKeys, a work skills assessment program. Those who are chosen undergo a six- to eight-week training program at Trident Technical College before starting the company's training program.
That training program has graduated roughly 1,400 workers for the two companies since the training system began in 2006.

Joke of the week

FBI agents conducted a raid of a psychiatric hospital in San Diego that was under investigation for medical insurance fraud. After hours of reviewing thousands of medical records, the dozens of agents had worked up quite an appetite. The FBI was taping all conversations at the hospital, and this conversation took place when the agent in charge called a nearby pizza delivery service to order.
Agent: Hello. I would like to order 19 large pizzas and 67 cans of soda.
Pizza Man: And where would you like them delivered?
Agent: We're over at the psychiatric hospital.
Pizza Man: The psychiatric hospital?
Agent: That's right. I'm an FBI agent.
Pizza Man: You're an FBI agent?
Agent: That's correct. Just about everybody here is.
Pizza Man: And you're at the psychiatric hospital?
Agent: That's correct. And make sure you don't go through the front doors. We have them locked. You will have to go around to the back to the service entrance to deliver the pizzas.
Pizza Man: And you say you're all FBI agents?
Agent: That's right. How soon can you have them here?
Pizza Man: And everyone at the psychiatric hospital is an FBI agent?
Agent: That's right. We've been here all day and we're starving.
Pizza Man: How are you going to pay for all of this?
Agent: I have my checkbook right here.
Pizza Man: And you're all FBI agents?
Agent: That's right. Everyone here is an FBI agent. Can you remember to bring the pizzas and sodas to the service entrance in the rear? We have the front doors locked.
Pizza Man: I don't think so. Click.

XXXXXXX vanity plate big hit — with tickets

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. - "Racer X's" vanity plate just does not compute in city computers, causing him to rack up about $19,000 in tickets.

Scottie Roberson bought a vanity plate with seven X's to pay homage to his racer nickname. But that causes a bit of a snafu when parking patrols put the plate into the system. Officials usually put seven X's in place of the number for cars without license plates.

Roberson says the mix-up has led him to get as many as 10 tickets in a day.

Hulk Hogan Returns To The Ring!



Hulk Hogan is refusing to let that wrestling career of his die!

Hogan is all signed up to be a wrestler for TNA Wrestling, the new wrestling organization created by beefcake cable network giant Spike TV.

Isn't the Hulk a little on the old side to be prancing around in spandex???

Hogan is "thrilled" to be joining TNA, according to a statement the former WWE wrestler released.

He says:

"My fans have been asking me to return to the business for many years on a full time basis, but the timing or the opportunity has never been right until now. TNA Wrestling is a great company with an already excellent fan base and business. I firmly believe now is the time for TNA to jump to the next level in their development and I’m here to help make that a reality."

Random Flair of the Day!
Don't know if you've heard the story behind the picture on the piece of flair. Louie Giglio was at a conference, and a man came up to him and they started talking. Giglio confided to the man that he wanted to find something new and different to talk about in his conferences, and the man suggested to him that he talk about "laminin". The man was a scientist. Giglio had no idea what the man was talking about, so the man told him to look it up on google. Laminin is the molecule that holds our bodies together. It's in the shape of a cross. Just as Christ holds the Body of Christ together. Isn't that cool??

Just another Marvelous Monday....


Today is Monday. The first day of the workweek. Usually, people think that Monday is an awful day. There is no light at the end of the tunnel on Monday. It's just the beginning of a loooong week, and all you want to do is crawl back in the bed and sleep the day away. Today is one of those kind of Mondays. The weather in Charleston this morning doesn't help at all either. It's rainy....the temperature outside is in the 60's....it's just a good lazy day......
But we're going to change that. We want today to be marvelous. Instead of complaining about how we don't want to do the things we have to do today, we should do those things with a joyful heart. Hey, you were able to wake up this morning, right? Life is amazing! Put your day into a new perspective. Instead of getting annoyed with certain tasks today (we are all guilty of this), why don't you complete that task as efficiently as you can, and have a happy heart? I'm sure after reading all this so far, you now have "Whistle While You Work" in your head. :-)
Let's take a different approach. You just got finished with the weekend, right? Well, what did you learn? We asked our friends on facebook any life lessons they learned over the weekend, and here are some responses:
"I'm not a mistake!!!!!!!"
-Tracie Clark
"Jesus is the Truth...there is no gray area"
-Patricia Agar
"We need to always remember to praise God even in troubling times, not just when something goes right."
-Karen Dowdle Wells
"God give me strength to do what I need for His glory!"
-Heather Vanderzel
"That God will never fail you, and can show up when you least expect him to"
-Elizabeth Marie Pangalangan
"When the ice cream cake directions says thaw in the fridge for 30 mins before serving - it doesn't mean 3 hrs. before serving."
-Kelly Creed Gordon
"to rejoice and be glad!"
-Sherry Weatherford Hammon
"When all else fails, fall on the Lord and he will redeem you!!"
-Jennifer Redmond
"God is always working no matter what we believe or what we don't believe"
-Gerald W Duke
"That family and friends are so important.life gets so busy sometime we forget."
-Kenny Thurston
"Everyone better get prepared because Jesus is coming soon."
-David Jennifer Carey
"That u can run from what God has called u to do for only so long but u will have to eventually give in."
-Sandy Mills Hiers
"The great feeling I received from giving myself to others in sharing hope and faith in the prayer tent at the "convoy of hope" in North Charleston. Thank you Lord, it's exactly what I needed..."
-Tim Montgomery


So, if you learned any life lessons this weekend, let us know! If you don't want to le tus know, that's cool too, but the challenge for you is to put those lessons to use. You'll probably feel a lot better if you do! Have a Marvelous Monday!

Friday: Obama, the moon, and Random Flair Of The Day!


Hey everybody! Good Friday to you! What's been going on the world? Well, for starters, our station was not on the air this morning due to technical difficulties, but that should be fixed now, and we apologize for not having some really awesome music on the radio for you. Apparently, President Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize. There's some controversy going on about whether he deserves it or not. Plus, people are arguing that it's too soon for him to win it as a president, since he's only been in office for a few months. NASA is going to shoot a rocket into the moon in search of water....uh-huh.....

It's Random Flair of the Day time!!!!


And, hey, we want to know what's going on in your life! Comment and let us know. If you have prayer requests, we'd like to know so we can pray for you!

Also, we want feedback from you about music! What's your favorite song?

Also don't forget about the MercyMe, Fee, and Jonny Diaz concert that's coming up on October 23! AND the Brandon Heath, Leeland, and Francesca Batistelli concert on November 4! Woohoo!

In other random news of the day, apparently a few people think the Bible is too liberal? And they want to translate it to be more conservative? Uh...right...so, to get the full story, here's the link. What are your thoughts?
http://news.aol.com/article/bible-too-liberal-conservatives-say-yes/706054

There's a Winnie-the-Pooh sequel and it includes a new character, an otter. Poll time!!! Should there have been a sequel in the first place? Should it include new characters? Let us know!

RANDOM FLAIR OF THE DAY!!!!!


And, also, here's some Scripture for you. We all know that a little bit of God's Word can make your day go from atrocious to absolutley wonderful!

"Don't burn out; keep yourselves fueled and aflame. Be alert servants of the Master, cheerfully expectant. Don't quit in hard times; pray all the harder. Help needy Christians; be inventive in hospitality." Romans 12:11-13 (The Message)
