Morning Show Notes - Thursday, January 20th


-Stephany White joined us to talk about the second season of Girls On the Run, a positive youth development program which combines an interactive curriculum and running to inspire self-respect and healthy lifestyles in pre-teen girls. The new season starts February 8th and you can learn more at http://www.girlsontherunofaikencounty.org/.

-Wanna live to be 100? Move to Edgefield! They have a history of people living long lives there. One of them, Mamie Rearden, is 112! Read more

-John talked about a newfound place of peace at his house. He recently got satellite TV and there's a channel that broadcasts a continuous live shot of Earth from 22,000 feet above. John has found that watching it and listening to the background music is relaxing and a great way to have some peaceful moments. What's the thing you do to find some quiet in your life? Join the conversation on the 88.3 WAFJ Facebook page.

-Your smartphone just got smarter! Turbo Tax has released "Snap Tax" for iPhone and Android. Use your phone to take a picture of your W2, fill out some electronic forms and your return is on its way. This is mainly for those who file a 1040-EZ. Also, Starbucks has introduced the "Starbucks Card Mobile App" that provides a barcode on your phone that can be scanned to pay for your purchases. The app is linked to either your PayPal account or a credit/debit card.

-Coming up Friday: 2 in 5 American adults (nearly 92 million people) have hesitated to shake hands with someone because they were afraid of germs. What’s more, 55% of Americans would rather touch a public toilet seat than shake someone’s hand after they’ve coughed or sneezed into it. Ever had one of those awkward handshake moments? How did you handle it?
Also, our movie guy, Bob, from Focus on the Family joins us at 7:10 to help you find clean movies this weekend.
