Cat got my tongue?  No, just been out of touch with reality for the last few months, but I'm coming back to it.  Let us know how you are doing and how we are doing, won't you? 

By the way, a member of the KQ Listener Family will be part of Season Two of THE VOICE! It's Hebron's own Gwen Sebastian. You've been hearing her on KQ for a couple of years and now the whole world gets to hear her. Gwen, you'll do North Dakota proud.

You DO know what a scatterbrain I am, right?  So, we've got Radio Reba.  Famous Dave's Famous First Name, Applebee's Trivia, Cousin Steve's Birthday Party, KQ Quick Cash.  Our "I'm A Proud Member of the KQ Listener Family" contest at the Civic Center on October 22nd.... Whewwwwww!  Now, BIG NEWS FOR MORE KQ LISTENER FAMILY SHENANIGANS on MONDAY MORNING WITH STEVE BAKKEN.  It's a secret till then.  I have a reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaly hard time with secrets.  Be Listening about 8:20 Monday morning, October 17th for the latest news.

If everything goes according to the Stork's plan, our new family member will be in the studio on Monday morning, learning the ropes and making himself acquainted with all of you.  The only sure thing in life is change, and we want to thank you all for staying the course for the last several weeks.  Family sticks together!

Yawn....

Stretch....

zzzzz.....

Sid and Amy are sleeping in for two weeks....

I'm not!

Remember all the positive energy you used sandbagging?  Get your rubber boots back out and patched, some good rubber work gloves, a respirator, a tetanus booster and board a bus.  Call your church or any of the city or county information lines to find out how to head to Minot for a day of recovery.  There will be people needing help here in Bismarck/Mandan soon enough, but Minot is desperately in need of volunteers now.  Spend a day helping a stranger if you don't already know someone. 

Spent the weekend in Minneapolis with the family doing our usual - a Twins game, Mall of America, Albertville, Traffic, Traffic, Traffic.  Yikes!  I really am a hick.  Why would I care to spend an hour in a car going 10 miles when I can count on a mile a minute (sometimes) getting most anywhere I want in Bis/Man!  Back to business here at KQ today with more IHeart Radio Festival passes and everything else.  AND great musical medicine that makes you forget all about the traffic!

Remember all those sandbags you filled and placed.  Well, soon those protective measures won't be needed.  And with luck lots of folks will be going home.  Be sure to engage as much energy into the post flood efforts as we did at the beginning of the event.  Get a tetanus shot if you haven't had one in the last 10 years.  Go rubber boot shopping.  Offer your assistance to someone who will be beginning the long process of recovery.  Until then, please keep the sandbags where you placed them.  The officials don't want us jumping the gun.  There's still many cfs to come.
