STORE CLOSINGS
Clark Howard, the consumer reporter, suggest not giving gift cards at all this year. If the business goes under the card will be no good and that will just be money down the drain.

Our boss is upset with Mark and Mercedes for not recording a Christmas greetings. These are holiday wishes that air between songs on our “Chris-Mix” channel.
Tell me what is wrong with this time line – Tuesday November 25th - Mercedes will be leaving on maternity leave and will do the show from her home studio. Monday December 8th Mercedes’ home studio is schedule to be installed. Hmm….
We debated which show is more wussier – my favorite show about 15 hot sexy models, competing against each other in bathing suits as the via for the title of “America’s Next Top Model.” Or Mark’s favorite, a show that follows the day to day operations of family with 17 kids – “The Duggars – 17 Kids and Counting.”
When playing solitaire you should try using pasta sauce.
When role playing with your gay husband or boyfriend be sure and wear a fedora and a suit.
And finally, we found out that Mark has never heard “Paint it Black” by the Rolling Stones, and he has never heard “Tiny Dancer” by Elton John. But he can tell you all about a man who stood six foot six and weighed 2-45 – Kinda broad at the shoulder and narrow at the hip – and everybody knows not to give him no lip - it’s Big John.

DO GUYS REALLY NOTICE A WOMAN'S HANDS???
Here are the four things that guys notice in women... that she might not know about.
1.) How she treats other people. And not just how she treats people who are "important"... but EVERYONE, including your waitress or the valet guy.
2.) Her hair. This is kind of a no-brainer. Of course guys notice a woman's hair. But the point in the article was that a woman's hair can put a guy in a good mood for the rest of the day.
3.) The little things she notices and points out. Does she have an interesting take on the world? What details does she point out in her everyday surroundings that help you figure out who she really is?
Puppies and kittens are cute, but their bodily fluids? Not so much. A strong stomach is definitely needed.
2. Waste Management Engineer
Annual salary: $67,249
Waste is a way to refer to the stuff that waste disposal managers have to think about and deal with every day. Whether it be garbage, hazardous substances or human waste, these people must find ways to dispose of that waste.
3. Trauma Surgeon
Annual salary: $273,160
Trauma surgeons are exposed to plenty of blood and guts, while treating patients who have been critically injured.
4. Coroner
Annual salary: $52,072
Death is a fact of life, but for people in this field, it's also a workday. Coroners investigate death to determine cause. They perform autopsies, conduct interviews, conduct pathological and toxicological analyses, and investigate circumstances of death.
5. Certified Nurse Midwife
Annual salary: $81,015
Babies are beautiful, but birth is another story. The sight of a baby emerging from its mother's womb is both awe-inspiring and a little gross.
As heard this morning.... A Classic 1950s film about puberty and "growing up."

IS MILEY CYRUS ANNOYING???

SHOW NOTES FROM PRODUCER JC
CLICK HERE for my detailed show rundown (with audio and pictures).
We had a list of the “Toughest TV Action Hero’s of all Time.” Mercedes claims that Fred Rogers should be on the list. She says that he is a former Navy Seal. And that he has tattoos all over his body, hence the sweaters 24/7. After some research we found that these statements were completely FALSE.
Mr. Hanky, The Christmas Poo was at last night’s premiere of ‘Twilight.’
I denied my wife sex last night because I knew she was going to be thinking about Edward from the movie ‘Twilight.’
Mercedes pointed out that I am lucky that the person that I fantasize about during sex has the same name as my wife Laura…. Of course she is talking about Laura Ingalls from "Little House on the Prairie."
We put together a list of the worst smells – 5) The Pig Farm in North Las Vegas. 4) C-sections. 3) Frito’s Breath. 2) Mr. Hanky Poo and # 1 Cool Ranch Doritos breath.
Mercedes told us about the first time “Aunt Flow” came to see her. She was attending Deer Creek Jr. High and Sarah Sweirsinsky had to point out to her that she had a stain on her pants. In a panic Mercedes told her that she must have sat in some ketchup.
Later on in the day Mercedes’ father passed on these words of wisdom – “now that you had your period you can get pregnant… so don’t!”
Mark is concerned about giving his daughter the “PMS” talk – perhaps the 1950’s PMS educational video will be able to assist him (see above)

MERCEDES IS OUT SICK TODAY
Hence her empty studio chair.
------------------------------------------
BLACK FRIDAY SALES ARRIVE EARLY THIS YEAR
These are tough economic times, so retailers are launching their Black Friday specials weeks early to motivate budget-conscious buyers. You can normally find the latest Black Friday ads on sites like BlackFriday.info, Bargainist.com, DealTaker.com, BFads.net, and TheBlackfriday.com, so check those out before you go shopping this weekend, because it looks like retailers are slashing prices early this year.
Yahoo! has more details HERE.

SHOW NOTES FROM PRODUCER JC
Mercedes is out sick today. We do have a contingency plan in place once she goes on maternity leave. Well, at least we thought we did. It’s not like we had 9 months to plan this thing out.
Tonight is the big premiere of ‘Twilight.’ After further discussion we came to the conclusion that if Edward was a real person he would be arrested for stalking. I mean there is no guy that could get away with sneaking into a girl’s bedroom and watching her sleep without being labeled a pervert.
Marks’s sisters’ cat hates his Mom.
When greeting a new co-worker the best way to make a lasting impression is to feel them up. Mix 94.1 employee Jewels did this to Mark when she first met him and Mark has not forgotten her name. Sadly we cannot say the same for Frank the Tank, who has been at Mix for 10 months, and Mark still has no idea who he is.
Before getting serious with someone you should date them for at least four seasons.
To avoid saying I love you, just say I adore you.
Just like Michael Winslow, aka: Cadet Larvelle Jones in the “Police Academy” series, I too am a master of sound effects
And finally, we learned that David Archuleta sounds like and elf.

LINDSAY LOHAN ATTACKED BY ANTI-FUR ACTIVIST
Lindsay Lohan was attacked by an anti-fur activist as she left a Paris nightclub early Saturday morning. Lohan was wearing a black fur stole when the activist dumped a bag of flour on her as she exited the nightclub.

DR. HAHN
Does Dr. Hahn, Brooke Smith, on Grey's Anatomy look familiar?
She was Catherin Martin in Silence of the Lambs.

HEAVY METAL IS BAD FOR YOUR HEART
If you're the sort of person who enjoys listening to heavy metal then we are sorry to inform you that your music preference just might KILL YOU.
OK, maybe we are being a little dramatic. But, according to researchers at the University of Maryland, listening to bands like METALLICA and DISTURBED actually can be bad for your heart. How?
A new study has found that listening to "stressful" music causes blood vessels to narrow by about 6%... and that's bad for your heart.
But listening to "happy" music... like the stuff JOHN DENVER sings can actually cause your blood vessels to expand by 26%...and that's good for your heart.

SHOW NOTES FROM PRODUCER JC
CLICK HERE for JC's detailed rundown of the show - with video and pictures.
Mercedes husband has joined Facebook. Et tu Matt? Et tu?
We learned that Wanda Sykes is gay….. Not there’s anything wrong with it. It just would have been good information to know before last week’s interview. Perhaps Mark would not have asked her if she likes to go to the Chippendales show when she is town.
Philadelphia Eagles QB Donovan McNabb did NOT know there is such a thing as a tie in the NFL…. And a Mix listener did not know that you can NOT bring a beer into the gym with you.
Metallica is NOT coming to Vegas in March.
Our listeners have been impaled by the following – a shovel, a bull, and a fake Christmas tree.
Here are the Mark and Mercedes traffic tips of the day – a white border on a stop sign means it is optional and you do NOT have to feed the meters at Town Square.
Mark has a new favorite TV show. No, no, no… it’s NOT Bravo’s “Step it Up and Dance with Elizabeth Berkley.” Mark’s new favorite show is VH-1’s “Celebrity Rehab.”
It is NOT okay for a guy to call another guy “hot.” You can however call him a “sharp looking dude.”
And finally, Mercedes likes the way Mark says the word “boobs.” So Mercedes, this BOOB montage is for you!
