We lost 2 over the Holidays...

Jack Klugman, best known as Oscar Madison from The Odd Couple, died Christmas Eve in Los Angeles. He was 90.













Charles Durning, known for his work on the screen and stage, died Christmas Eve as well in Manhattan. He was 89. You would know him as Jessica Lange's dad in Tootsie and the Governor in Best Little Whorehouse In Texas.












They both will be dearly missed!

A Gender-Neutral Easy Bake Oven is coming!

A 13 year old girl will get her wish, an Easy Bake Oven that her younger brother can be proud to use!

McKenna Pope, 13, of Garfield, N.J., got more than 40,000 signatures on her online petition at Change.org and the support of celebrity chefs including Bobby Flay, who backed her call for Hasbro to make a gender-neutral oven and to include boys in the ads.

She was prompted to start the petition after shopping for an Easy-Bake as a Christmas present for her 4-year-old brother, Gavyn Boscio, and finding them only in purple and pink.

Hasbro invited McKenna and her family to its Pawtucket, R.I., headquarters to meet with its Easy-Bake team, and on Monday, they drove to Rhode Island from New Jersey. During the meeting, Hasbro executives showed off a prototype of their newest Easy-Bake: one that's black, silver and blue.

Hasbro has been working on the new color scheme and design for about 18 months, and decided to invite McKenna to see it and offer her thoughts, said John Frascotti, Hasbro's chief marketing officer.

McKenna said the company is doing everything she asked, including putting boys in the ads.

Way to go McKenna! Here's the complete story!

This is so cute...they are so confused :) Merry Christmas!

My Video Pick of the Day!

Here is a Holiday Themed video for you!

Most Polite Celebs!

Despite the massive success they’ve enjoyed in 2012, America’s National League of Junior Cotillions has for the second year in a row named Taylor Swift and Justin Bieber the world’s Best Mannered celebrities. NIJC national director Elizabeth Ann Winters said of Swift, “(She inspires) young people with her music and her manners… We think that she conducts herself with such graciousness with her fans.” Meanwhile, Bieber was honored for “consistently showing courtesy to his many fans.” How cool is that?? They are good kids!

My Video Pick of the Day!

This is a crazy prank....he is one lucky guy!

My Video Pick of the Day!

You may have wondered what New Anchors do during commercial breaks....here is your answer!

Murder and Castration?!

A convicted killer currently serving two life sentences in a Las Cruces, NM prison for raping and killing a 15-year old girl in Vermont in 2000 allegedly hatched a plan to have Justin Bieber murdered and castrated by a fellow inmate and an accomplice, according to KRQE-TV News in Albuquerque. Convicted murderer Dana Martin recruited Mark Staake to murder the pop star once Staake was released from prison. Staake later recruited his nephew Tanner Ruane to help commit the crime, which was scheduled to take place last month in New York, where Bieber was performing. But for an unexplained reason, Martin nixed the plan and led police to Staake and Ruane, whom they arrested. Again, for some unexplained reason, Martin is obsessed with Bieber and even has a tattoo of the singer on his leg. How creepy is that? There are some downfalls to being famous that's for sure!

2012 Sexiest Man Alive!

Yes indeed, it's Channing Tatum! I surely would not disagree! His wife is not surprised at all either saying that “People know him to be fun and sexy, but they don’t know how emotionally deep and spiritually open he is,” she said. “He is such an open-hearted person; what you see is what you get.” Do you remember who was the 2011 Sexiest Man Alive?? If you said Bradley Cooper...you got it right and obviously have good taste in men!

Jon Bon Jovi's daughter arrested...

19-year old daughter Stephanie Bongiovi was arrested Wednesday morning, charged with drug use and possession, at her college in Upstate New York, police said. In addition, the Kirkland Police Department reported Bongiovi was found unresponsive in her dorm room and transported by ambulance to a nearby hospital after an apparent heroin overdose. Officers dispatched to Bongiovi’s Hamilton College dorm room found small amounts of heroin and marijuana and arrested Ian S. Grant, 21, of Red Bank, NJ, and subsequently arrested and charged Bongiovi with criminal possession of a controlled substance, marijuana and criminal use of drug paraphernalia – all class-A misdemeanors. Both Bongiovi and Grant were released on appearance tickets. Meanwhile, Jon Bon Jovi is scheduled to perform at a concert to benefit Hamilton College’s scholarships and arts programs in Times Square on December 5.

Ok, this is a little much, but I had to share it with you. Ukrainian singer Aza, filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles alleging pop star Carly Rai Jepsen stole her song "Hunky Santa" and turned it into the smash hit, "Call Me Maybe."

LOL, love this!

My Video Pick of the Day!

It isn't much of a video, but it is a new song from Rod Stewart....what do you think?

Fall Back!

Thank you all for your pledges and support of CMNH this past Thursday through Saturday! We raised over $85,000.00 for local kids going through medical issues! Here I am with one of our Heroes, Jonas Kugler, who just found out he is cancer free!

Sleep! Oh I miss it so!

I have had a rough time sleeping this week. I went on a 4 day vacation and slept pretty good, now I am home and cannot sleep for 4 hours straight! It is driving me crazy and the lack of sleep makes me prone to headaches and those can make me very unproductive - that I really do not like. What do you do to ensure you get a good nights sleep? Or do you just make it through on 5 to 6 hours? HELP!!

To get you in the mood!!

Are you ready for Halloween? Do you go as nuts as this guy?

You will notice a very different look to Bruno Mars' new music video, Locked Out of Heaven. He says he loves it as it brings him back to his childhood! Check out this old fashioned fun!

Cardboard Bicycle?

Now this invention seems like a great idea....except for in the rain! A bicycle made almost entirely of cardboard has the potential to change transportation habits from the world's most congested cities to the poorest reaches of Africa, its Israeli inventor says.

Izhar Gafni, 50, is an expert in designing automated mass-production lines. He is an amateur cycling enthusiast who for years toyed with an idea of making a bicycle from cardboard.

He told Reuters during a recent demonstration that after much trial and error, his latest prototype has now proven itself and mass production will begin in a few months. Check it out!

Monday!

Wow, what a wet and wild weekend!! Glow in the Deke was a huge event Saturday night at UW-La Crosse! The rain held off and close to 1000 people came out to run/walk through Myrick Park and the marsh in the dark helping to raise funds for the Boys & Girls Clubs of La Crosse! The only negative was the loss of my iPhone. Was it misplaced or stolen? I may never know, but still feel so naked with out it!!

The best part of the weekend was wrapping it up with a big Green Bay Packer win!! Too bad it went so late into the night for us early birds!

Enjoy your Monday and thanks for listening to Magic 105!

Ok ladies....Smooth or Hairy??

That is the question of the day! Researchers asked women to compare the attractiveness of men before and after shaving their chest. The majority of women loved a smooth chest, while only 20% wanted the "Magnum P.I." look. So what is your preference??

Ke$ha wrote her memoir already??

Yes indeed, Pop sensation Ke$ha has written her memoir and it's due out in November. What did she share in My Crazy Beautiful Life besides a ton of pictures from her life til today...she is just 25? Well, here is what she says: "In less than three years I've gone from being the worst waitress in LA to living out my childhood dreams of singing my songs to people all over the world. Sometimes, it feels as if the last few years have encompassed a few decades. You might have heard my voice on the radio, seen me onstage and on the red carpet, or in a music video, but that's only a part of the story. In these pages, I'm revealing a more complete picture of what my life is really like. It's not all glamorous and it's not all pretty, but it's all real." Her new album, Warrior comes out December 4th and below is her first single off it, "Die Young".

If I couldn't, I would hand it off to my daughter, Morgan! The bird craze only lasted a couple weeks for us and I guess now we can try the Piggies! Here is a link to their website and the trailer is below!
