Show Notes for Thursday, May 21, 2020




THIS WEEK'S DEAR JOHN LETTER!

Dear John,

I'm supposed to be getting married in a few weeks. My wedding has been put on hold because of the pandemic. I've been looking at new dates and have been trying to decide if I want to wait for my dream wedding, or just get married now and have a dream marriage instead of the big fancy wedding. My mom thinks I should wait. I'm pretty sure my dad would love it if I skipped the big expensive ordeal. What are your thoughts? Should we elope at home?

Signed – BrideToBe

A 50-year-old Montana man named Ronald Joseph Gallagher was arrested on several charges, including marijuana possession, resisting arrest, and disorderly conduct. He was released from the Missoula County jail after posting bond on the three misdemeanor counts. As seen in his booking photo, Gallagher, who is something of a frequent flyer at the local lockup, was wearing a “DRUG FREE” t-shirt when collared. The shirt’s full kicker --“Just ran out yesterday” -- was cropped out by the jailhouse photographer. (https://bit.ly/2xKmEHx)

Engineers are redesigning door handles so we don’t have to touch them.

Here’s a surprising tip for making people admire your conversation skills: Count the number of times a person blinks. Research shows that people will be more receptive to what you have to say if they feel like you’re riveted to every word they say. One of the easiest ways to signal that you’re paying attention is to make eye contact — so start counting blinks. It’ll force you to maintain extreme eye contact.

A Florida Woman battered her husband with a bouquet of Mother’s Day flowers during a confrontation early yesterday in the couple’s home. Investigators say that 32-year-old Sandra Kay Webb and her spouse were in their Tampa-area residence when matters turned physical around 12:30 a.m. Monday. Webb was upset at the victim because he bought her children “flowers to give her for Mother’s Day.” This “made the defendant angry,” according to an arrest affidavit. Webb allegedly “threw the flowers at the victim while he was in bed and struck him with the bouquet.” Webb is also accused of spitting on her husband’s arm and chest. After being read her rights, Webb reportedly admitted to police that she threw the flowers, but denied the spitting. Charged with domestic battery, a misdemeanor, Webb was booked into the Pinellas County jail, from which she was released Monday afternoon on her own recognizance.(https://bit.ly/2Ls5fa2)

Florida police are searching for a man who allegedly pulled out a gun and threatened another customer during an argument at the deli counter of a Publix supermarket last Saturday. Officers responded to the store around 6:30 p.m. after the unidentified man threatened the other customer. No shots were fired, and no one was injured. The circumstances leading up to the argument were not immediately clear. But when customers learned of an armed individual inside the store, officials told FOX35 Orlando that shoppers and employees ran out of the supermarket. The suspect also left the scene. Orlando police released a surveillance image of the man wearing a light-colored hat, surgical gloves and a medical face mask. Anyone with information on the suspect’s identity is asked to contact the department. (https://fxn.ws/3cssvjS)
