Show Prep 168

Greetings and Salutations, People: I AM THE TERROR THAT FLAPS IN THE NIGHT! Okay, I can neither confirm nor deny that in the past hour I have watched the Darkwing Duck theme song multiple times. Okay, I’ll just confirm it. And no, I don’t know the technical term for what’s wrong with me.

Welcome to Vertically Striped Radio, I am your host and Darkwing Duck theme song enthusiast, Craig Dodge. It’s 3:30 in the Mountain Pine Cone on a lovely Saturday in Centennial, Colorado. Which means it’s time once again for Vertically Striped Radio.

I want to start out with a plea for someone to explain women and children to me.

First women:
Jen calling right before she gets into an elevator.

Second children:
Luke asking what a turkey sounds like and then telling me “NO!”

If banks were as fiercely regulated as McDonalds breakfast cut off time, there'd be no problems.

Let’s get to the news… (Play News Music – Clip 03) 

WASHINGTON, Pa. (AP) -- Police say they followed a trail of potato chips to catch a southwestern Pennsylvania burglary suspect.

Washington police say 21-year-old Benjamin Sickles was arrested early Thursday after he allegedly broke into a Subway restaurant and stole several bags of snacks.

Investigators say Sickles broke a glass door before trying to open the cash register. They say he made off with nine bags of chips after he couldn't get to the cash.

Officers say they followed a trail of chip bags to Sickles, who had a bloody hand and foot when he was taken into custody.


MILFORD, Mass. (AP) -- A Massachusetts man who pledged to make the last mortgage payment on his home with pennies has fulfilled that promise.

After warning his bank, Thomas Daigle dropped off about 62,000 pennies weighing 800 pounds in two boxes for the final payment on the Milford home he and his wife, Sandra, bought in 1977.

He tells The Milford Daily News ( http://bit.ly/NseYqK ) he just wanted to make his last payment on April 24 "memorable."

He started saving his pennies when he moved in.

The optician says his wife laughed whenever he would pick up a penny he found on the ground and say it was going to the mortgage.

Daigle says he's just glad to have the coins out of his house.



PHOENIX (AP) -- A Phoenix mother has been arrested after authorities say she put beer in her 2-year-old son's sippy cup.

Phoenix police were called to a pizza restaurant Tuesday night after witnesses say they saw 36-year-old Valerie Marie Topete pour beer from a pitcher into her son's cup and then the child drank some of it.

Phoenix police say Topete admitted pouring the beer in the cup because the child kept reaching for the beer pitcher.

Officers examined the contents of the cup and determined the liquid was consistent with beer.

The child was taken to a hospital for precautionary reasons and was later released to the care of his father.

Topete is being held on suspicion of child abuse.
