So we'll get your official Cannonball Pool Party forecast coming up here in a few minutes. No chance of rain, though we need rain. There's no rain in the forecast until maybe Sunday, and that's only a 20% chance of rain.
Speaker 3:And I know people are waiting to hear an update on our friends, so we've gotten us some update music.
Speaker 1:Yes, oh Waddle, serious woman here.
Speaker 6:This is about Waddle.
Speaker 1:It is, waddle's is okay. Waddle's is okay, don't be scared, but Waddle's a goose.
Speaker 6:Well, he's not, okay, no he's not okay. But he's okay Okay.
Speaker 1:Okay, hold on. Okay, you get a tear, are you okay? I'm okay. It's just Waddles needs help. He does.
Speaker 6:We got to find Waddles some help, you know whenever you hear this music on TV, you think it's a great song, but you know that there's an animal in need somewhere and they want money.
Speaker 1:Um yeah, no we don't want money, we just need help we just need help.
Speaker 6:We don't know. We don't. We're not asking for money this time. No, we got a contact, though. Yeah, somebody commented and said that we can contact sneed's farmhouse sanctuary. Okay, it's ran by a woman named judy. I found a cell phone and I want to update everybody on the offices that we called yesterday. Yes, people are not concerned about the duck.
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 6:And the authorities figure.
Speaker 1:Most were closed because of the holidays federal holiday, june 10th they were closed, some just didn't. We left messages, yeah, didn't answer. So we have returned Waddles. If you missed the story, waddles the goose, I said duck again.
Speaker 6:You said duck again you said I don't I've got to stop because he's so disrespectful to waddles he turned his back on you yesterday.
Speaker 1:I know he did, but we found him. Yeah, he was down by the water again. Yeah, we had to go looking for him close to the farmer's market area and some people actually have videos of waddles early in the day. He moves around. Don't don't take it like he can't walk. He can walk, but who wouldn't want to walk with this giant thing attached to your foot?
Speaker 6:Yeah, and it's causing him to limp. And we saw a fishing line.
Speaker 1:Yeah, there's a better picture If you go to our Facebook. This morning we have an update on Waddles, who's okay. But he still has that thing on his foot and I don't think it's something he was born with. I think it's something he was born with. I think it was man-made, because you can see some fishing line at the back of his leg. Yeah, it's like he's got caught in something. Whatever this is, it's about as big around as a softball.
Speaker 6:Yeah, it's on the very top of his foot. If somebody could just put him to sleep and like cut it off.
Speaker 1:He was friendly. Yeah, I mean, want Wild duck, I know so we want somebody to grab him or help him. He knows what they're doing and that's why we're just looking for somebody. And look at all the supporters we have, because you asked a question yeah, who's following Waddle's journey? And, like here's, ann Nugent said yes, of course, wanda McGee from Second Chance Shelter absolutely.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, wanda and Doug, they've tried to help us. Their buddy, terry Turk, tried to give us some names and information. So people are helping, but we just can't find the right person who can go down there and just gently catch this thing and remove it off of its foot.
Speaker 6:Yeah, they're telling us to call the Alabama Wildlife Center too.
Speaker 1:We've tried that we're not open yesterday. Right, we tried that we're not open yesterday.
Speaker 6:Right, we'll give it another go. I really like this Sneeds Farmhouse Sanctuary. Yeah.
Speaker 1:I really think we should give her a call later in the day. Maybe if she's listening, she'll reach out to us and offer to tell us what to do.
Speaker 6:Yeah, Judy.
Speaker 1:And we'll meet you down there, Judy.
Speaker 6:Oh, we sure will, we'll show you.
Speaker 1:There's Sylvia Hartberger she here's Tammy Norris, here's Lynette Stigman, alicia Ford, tammy Norris there's all kinds of folks. Thank you for offering these tips and information on how to help wattles.
Speaker 6:Yes, and that's what we are trying to do is just to help this duck and I know it seems so silly, it's just a duck. Some people are saying just let nature take its course. No, we can't.
Speaker 1:This is a nature, because it just got caught in something that man made. I understand if a duck, say, an eagle, swoops down and grabs it or something, then it's the circle of life or whatever. But I don't think this was meant to be, because it had nothing to do with another animal eating the goose. It just got caught in something. I don't know what it is, but if you can look at the picture really close you got a great picture of it yesterday, Thanks Then you can kind of maybe figure out what that is.
Speaker 6:It looks like it's something that probably could be easily removed yeah, maybe yeah I feel like I could get after it with a pair of scissors if I could just catch him. Yeah, if I could just catch him, but I need something to make him sleepy yeah, I don't have that.
Speaker 1:Uh, no, trying to find some music for you, okay, uh. So anyway, if you want to see the pictures and all the information on wattles, we'll be giving you more updates as soon as we find them. Oh, here we go. That's what somebody said yesterday. What's the circle of life? It's an animal. It's a wild animal.
Speaker 3:Yes, it is a wild animal, but I'm okay with another animal eating another animal because it's part of this, but this is not the case.
Speaker 1:Part of this, but this is not the case, right, elsa?
Speaker 6:Elsa, Elsa is yeah.
Speaker 1:So we've got all kinds of music this morning. We've got that, we've got this.
Speaker 6:It's like a mash Can I put in her quest? Hi, I'm Sarah McLaughlin.
Speaker 1:Oh, there's Sarah. Okay, hold on, sarah, she's going to help that dog. Hi, I'm.
Speaker 6:Sarah, hi, I'm Holly Mostello. I would like to help Waddles the Duck.

Now Go to work. But it was so funny because your doctor said I had to tune in to see if you were crazy enough.
Speaker 1:People were telling me that you went to work the next day.
Speaker 6:Surely enough.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you did.
Speaker 6:And we saw Kent Croft at Chick-fil-A yeah, after one of our walks and he said, oh, rotator cuff, he's like or no? It was somebody that said it takes about a year.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 6:It takes about a year to. You said a year.
Speaker 1:That depressed me. I immediately listened to this. I said, oh no, please no.
Speaker 6:For your chance to help Barry for nonsense. Send us nonsense.
Speaker 1:Send us nonsense so that we can put it towards the fire To pull back mobility with his left arm To burn this Sling Sling. I'm going to auction this thing off or do something with it, are you? I give it to Waddles so he can sleep in it, I don't know.
Speaker 6:We could carry him around in it good but anyways, we need some help.
Speaker 1:You can find something. Somebody, hopefully the lady that you mentioned.
Speaker 6:I think that's a good contact yeah, and I think we should give her a call after we will yeah so maybe she can.
Speaker 1:Uh, maybe she can help her, she can tell us who can yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 6:That's all we're trying to do.

Speaker 4:Mornings with Barry and Holly here on Alabama's Country Giant, wqsb, wqsb.
Speaker 1:QSB Nate Smith and Bulletproof 622. It's a Thursday with Barry and Holly and some good news. We found somebody. We've contacted somebody. We did. I'm so excited. We're going to call her in a few minutes. My name is Judy, with Snead's Farmhouse, and she does things like this helping wild animals and we're going to give her a call in a minute and see if she has a chance to look at the picture of Waddles the goose. Yeah, she might be able to help him yeah, just send her some videos of Waddles.
Speaker 6:Yeah, and she's. She said that she specializes in chickens and ducks and but we don't know about geese. I kept calling it a duck and you kept getting on to me.
Speaker 3:It's why is that stuck in my?
Speaker 6:head. I don't know that is so lame. I need to know. I know that Waddles is a goose yeah, so does Waddles anddles and Waddles knows. I hope he knows he's a goose.
Speaker 1:I would think so.
Speaker 6:I'm going to send him in front of the mirror and say hi, my name is Waddles. Repeat after me. Yeah, and I'm beautiful. Yeah, and I can get through this. Yes, and I'm going to get this fishing line off my leg.
Speaker 1:I'm going yeah.
Speaker 6:What is that? I have no idea. I don't know.
Speaker 1:But anyway, we're going to talk to Judy coming up in just a few minutes, but other things going on. It's going to be a beautiful day, sunny, a little bit warmer today, high in your 90. The wind's going to be strong again, but not as windy as it has been. The wind's 10 to 15. So as far as humidity yep, humidity is going to be back starting. Central is busy with wattles. We forgot to do the things you need to know today. You know today is the official first day of summer, is it? Today is the longest day of the year. Oh man, now what you're saying is every day is the same length. Yes, you'll have the most sunshine today of any day of the year.
Speaker 6:That's hard for me, though, because I go to bed at 8 o'clock and it's still sunny outside.
Speaker 1:Well, the sun won't go down until midnight tonight. No but, seriously it is the most sunshine of any day in the year. Today, this is it. It officially gets underway like at 340, 50-something is when it officially becomes summer today.
Speaker 6:Is that what it's called summer solstice Solstice? Yes, oh, I did it.
Speaker 1:So then, starting tomorrow, the days will start getting shorter by a minute every day, but anyway, what's going on today?
Speaker 6:Today is National Vanilla Milkshake Day. Do you like vanilla?
Speaker 1:milkshakes. Love any kind of milkshake. I'd rather have a peanut butter one, but I love vanilla, harlow got a peanut butter one yesterday. She loved it.
Speaker 6:The first milkshake was made for adults. It contained eggs and whiskey Whiskey, yeah, in the milkshake. So it wasn't made for kids.
Speaker 1:That doesn't even sound good, Uh-uh no.
Speaker 6:And in 1949, Dairy Queen was the first restaurant to add milkshakes to their menu.
Speaker 1:There's something about a milkshake that just makes you happy.
Speaker 6:Yeah, they do it's really good as a treat it is. It is. Here's something you need to know. A hospital in Ohio is celebrating an unusual baby boom while caring for seven sets of newborn twins at the same time.
Speaker 1:Seven at the same time? Wow. So that's 14 kids, 14 newborns. What are people eating and drinking in this area? So many twins? I don't know, but I don't want no part of it, no.
Speaker 6:The clinic said that this has never happened in the history of the hospital. I'm sure it happened.
Speaker 1:I hope they're keeping names and numbers and trying to be sure they got them separated and know which one's which.
Speaker 6:That would be a nightmare I know and here's something to think about All right, what you got. It's kind of a deep thought. So bear with me, okay. People who think that only God can judge them have obviously never hung out with my coworkers. Oh, they judge me, oh that's a good one.
Speaker 1:Radio people are tough but I love them. I know that's good. It's 625. Barry and.
Speaker 4:Holly on Alabama's Country, Giant WQSB.
Speaker 1:This is the Post Malone and Morgan Wallen. I had some help and I think it's a perfect song leading into our guest.
Speaker 6:We had some help. Yeah, I think it's a perfect song leading into our guest. We had some help.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we're talking with Judy with Snead's Farmhouse. Good morning, Judy. How are you?
Speaker 5:Good morning.
Speaker 1:Now tell us Snead's Farmhouse. What is this exactly? What do you do?
Speaker 5:Well, I'm a nonprofit farm that started in 2020. I was a city girl, never wanted a chicken a day in my life and my husband suggested getting chickens and it turned into Sneed's Farmhouse, and what I do is a little bit of everything. I do tours for the public, but my focus is to help sober living facilities, group homes, domestic violence, shelters. They come here for a safe place to come. We have a huge creek as well as the farm and I teach against. When the public comes and field trips come, I teach how my animals live together in harmony and they're not separated by fences and even though they talk different, they're different colors, they're raised different, they have different mannerisms they all get along. So that's what I focus on. I love that Is getting back to my community.
Speaker 1:That is awesome. That's what this was meant to be. We have found the perfect person to help Waddles.
Speaker 1:Okay and we were telling you off the air about the story. Now we sent you a piece of a video. We saw this goose about two weeks ago and something was on its foot and we thought, okay, it'll shake it off. And when we saw it again a few days ago and thought, no, it's not going to get this off. And we look closer you saw the picture in the video. What do you think is on its foot?
Speaker 5:um, in my experience now, I also rescue animals a lot. It's not my main focus. I'm not a rescue, I am a sanctuary. But a lot of people think I'm a sanctuary, meaning I rescue nothing but animals. Right, but my focus is to rescue human beings.
Speaker 3:Ah, I got you and get people in the moment.
Speaker 5:I love it, but I've rescued a lot of animals, and mainly ducks is what I've been rescuing Right In my experience. Now I am not a vet, right, but I think the fishing line is around that foot and it's caused infection and swelling. But I have a story to share with y'all. Sure, there's a story of hope. Okay, y'all love the food.
Speaker 1:Absolutely.
Speaker 5:So three years ago a duck, a horseman's leg, called me, and a duck had a hurt foot and I went out there to rescue it, brought it home, started nurturing it and then I realized the foot was stone cold and so I took it to the vet. Uh, dr lee, here in by my, and I said what, what do I do? This foot's dead. And he said, judy, it's gonna have to be amputated. I went can you live on one foot? And he said yes.
Speaker 5:So I spent the money, had surgery and this goose has lived with me not goose duck has lived with me for three years. And guess what I use her for now? What To teach people against discrimination with disabilities? Because Quacky Jackie is her name. She has no idea. She has one foot. Okay, she can jump out of a swimming pool, she walks around. She has no clue, she has one foot. Okay, she can jump out of a swimming pool, she walks around. She has no clue, she has one foot. So I teach kids. I'm like don't tell her she has one foot because she doesn't know, and I close her ears. I'm like don't tell her because she's not treated any differently around here. And so I use her that and I go into nursing homes with people that are amputees to teach them not to give up because she walks everywhere. So I don't know, there is to be certain. But if we can get that goose waddles, I take her to the vet.
Speaker 5:I'm pretty sure that foot's probably gonna have to be amputated. Don't know for sure. Yeah, but if she does she can live on one foot. The only problem is she cannot live out there in guntersville by herself with one foot Because if it's a female she's going to get overbred because she might fit more than a regular. You know two feet. So she will have to come to home.
Speaker 5:The thing that I worry about is if she carries the avian influenza flu, that can spread. So if I get her and take her to the vet and she doesn't have that, she can live on my farm, right, you're gonna save bottles all the way. But if she has that she will have to be put down. If I brought her to my farm, right, that can spread like wildfire and spread to human beings. So it is a big concern with the agriculture department. The avian influenza was found in Moulton and the whole town of Moulton had to shut down All the chicken plants. When that's found. It is a serious problem. So I have to check to make sure it will have to be separated for a while, but I will tell you the surgery. They bounce back quick. Okay, okay, they do. So there's hope. Maybe she can just have an antibiotic and it'll cure and she can stay at home, sure.
Speaker 5:But I do want to encourage the viewers to feed the ducks and the geese the right food. Yes, because in the past they go out there with bread and all that, and it shouldn't. It makes the animals sick. Really they need to use duck feed, and especially with the ducklings when they're put on a lake like this and they're not managed. Every day a lot of people dump the ducks because they don't know what to do with them. They think the right thing to do is to dump them on a lake right, but they're domestic ducks and they can't properly hunt for food because they're domesticated. So I highly recommend the to get in a routine of feeding the ducks out there the right nutrition gotcha.
Speaker 1:Well, judy, we're gonna off the air in a second. We're gonna get with you and maybe find a time and a date. We can meet you there and help you with this, because we appreciate you so much offering. You're the first person to even offer to help.
Speaker 5:Yes, Well, I would be glad to help. Oh man, we're so happy.
Speaker 1:Thank you for reaching out, yeah, and tell people about where you're located at again and give them some information about what you do.
Speaker 5:You can follow me on Facebook or YouTube it's Sneeze Farmhouse Sanctuary or you can go to my website, sneezefarmhousecom, and you can actually book a tour, and so you know what we'll do. If she ends up living at my farm, we'll open up my farm to the community so they can come see Rottles Judy, yay.
Speaker 1:Well, judy, you are awesome. Thank you for speaking to us and we're going to play a commercial and talk to you off the air, so hold on one second, okay. Okay, all right. Thanks, judy. So we're going to step closer. So we're going to work out the details and try our best to maybe get Waddle some help in the next day or two. I'm so happy. That is awesome. That is awesome. Yeah, all right, we'll be giving you more updates and keep watching at 643.
Speaker 4:WQSB Mornings with Barry and Holly.
Speaker 1:In the meantime, it's time for Holly's pile of stories. Did you ever see the movie Spaceballs years ago?
Speaker 6:Is that the one that made the Star Wars?
Speaker 1:Yeah, yes, it's like a classic. Yeah, and you're telling me that they're doing a sequel.
Speaker 6:Finally, I am. So the original came out in 1987. Can you believe it's been?
Speaker 1:that long. I cannot believe that 37 years.
Speaker 6:Yeah, the long-awaited sequel to Spaceballs has been confirmed by Josh Gad, who's going to be the lead role. He's going to co-write and script it. Mel Brooks, who co-wrote, directed, produced and acted in the original film, is returning to produce the sequel.
Speaker 1:I think Rick Moranis played like the Darth Vader part of it.
Speaker 6:And he's retired from that.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I think John Candy was in it.
Speaker 6:Yes, the dog.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it was just a great deal. It was funny.
Speaker 6:Yeah, it was. It was funny. I like Josh Gad too. Yeah, I do too. He's funny. Well, netflix released a trailer for the documentary series Simone Biles Rising, offering a behind-the-look scenes at her training and personal life. It's going to premiere on July 17th, just before the Paris Olympics opening ceremony on July 26th.
Speaker 1:I want to watch. I think she's one of the most amazing athletes I've ever seen compete. She is. She is unreal, hands down, unreal.
Speaker 6:Yeah, she is, yep. And how about this? Pat Sajak's final episode as host of Wheel of Fortune on June 7th drew in 11 million viewers. Wow, the show's highest ratings in four years. I believe it. I believe it too.
Speaker 1:I wanted to see his last one. It was good. Yeah, it was just a good show, but nothing special.
Speaker 6:No, they didn't do any balloons.
Speaker 1:He's going to be a mess, though he's going to be a mess.
Speaker 6:Oh yeah, but I think Ryan Seacrest will do a good job. Researchers from the University of York used artificial intelligence to predict tomorrow's favorite dishes. Experts asked AI to create what dinner would look like as we move toward more sustainable meals.
Speaker 1:Have you seen the pictures of what this AI created? Yes, they're saying these are going to be our big dishes in 2054. Lab-grown steaks, first of all, will be the big meat we're eating.
Speaker 6:No.
Speaker 1:Lab-grown no, no, no. Other ones include cricket salad.
Speaker 5:Why.
Speaker 1:No, why, if I see a cricket on my salad, first of all, I'm going to the manager and saying there's a cricket on my salad, yeah, give me another one, I don't want it on here. I don't understand how about the spaghetti and meatballs with meatballs made out of aquatic plants Not real meat. But look at the picture on our Facebook page. Here's what the computer says. This is what our food will look like. First of all, the spaghetti noodles are green, green noodles with green meatballs. That's disgusting.
Speaker 6:I'm looking at the crickets those aren't just normal crickets. Those are like cicada-sized crickets.
Speaker 1:This is what the computers predict our food will look like in about 30 years, according to artificial intelligence.
Speaker 6:You know what?
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 6:We'll always have McDonald's.
Speaker 1:No, by that time computers will have killed us all and taken over the world, so we don't have to worry about eating this crap. We're going to be killed by computers anyway.
Speaker 6:Well, okay, so their thing is that the meals are filled with protein and have lower carbon footprints.
Speaker 1:Big John says I might be skinny, john, with that menu in a decade. You are right, john. We're going on a road trip for a football game. I don't think we'll be stopping eating anywhere. We're going to be skipping. We'll be bringing a PB&J from home.
Speaker 6:Hey, will you go through a Subway? I really want a cricket salad.
Speaker 1:Oh, with extra cricket. Oh, I want a crunch. That's disgusting.
Speaker 6:Hey, will you stop by and get me some of those aquatic meatballs.

Speaker 1:Do you like the Simpsons? I do. Yes, They've been around forever, but occasionally I like to watch from time to time. They found something a 3,500-year-old Egyptian mummy's tomb they found, and it contains a drawing of a woman that bears a striking resemblance to Marge Simpson.
Speaker 3:It's on her Facebook page. I'm looking at it now.
Speaker 1:This is weird. It looks like Marge Simpson on this tomb. Now the inner lid of the sarcophagus shows a yellow woman much like Marge, since the Simpsons are all yellow wearing a long green garment much like what she's worn before and tall blue hair.
Speaker 6:Oh my gosh.
Speaker 1:Isn't this weird?
Speaker 6:Okay, have you heard of the Simpsons conspiracy?
Speaker 1:Yes, I have, so my gosh, isn't this weird? Okay, have you heard of the Simpsons?
Speaker 6:conspiracy? Yes, I have so explain it.
Speaker 1:There's many things that's happened in the show that like a year or years later it actually does happen, Like President Trump. President Trump Like stuff with music, rock stars, weird things that actually happens down, maybe six months or a year later.
Speaker 6:Yes, even the pandemic. They did an episode in 1993, and it was called the Osaka flu and it was so widespread they all had to wear masks and it was just like COVID was. Isn't that crazy? It's weird, yeah. So what I'm getting at is this just adds to the conspiracy? To me it does.
Speaker 1:Ew and no one can explain it, because this happened at 3,500 years old and it looks like Marge Simpson back in the day.
Speaker 6:It does, and look at all the people they have. It looks like kneeling down beside her, so she must have been somebody with importance.
Speaker 1:She was like a big queen. I guess you have like I don't know. I don't know a whole lot about Egyptian history, but I don't know if there was a Marge Simpson in there. She had a son named Bart Homer. Yeah, pharaoh over here, homer. Pharaoh named Homer? No, I don't think so, isn't that weird?
Speaker 6:Yeah, it is weird, especially with it being the Simpsons. I think if it was like any other cartoon I wouldn't be as shocked Like.
Speaker 1:Phil Scooby-Doo.
Speaker 6:Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, spongebob. Well, I don't know.
Speaker 1:SpongeBob. They worshipped the giant sponge back in the years ago. I don't know.
Speaker 6:But the Simpsons have so many conspiracies.
Speaker 1:They do. This ties right in.
Speaker 6:Do you believe in conspiracy theories?
Speaker 1:No, okay, no, do you?
Speaker 6:Yes.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 6:And I'll just leave it at that. Okay, I'm not going to tell you which ones.
Speaker 1:Well, if you want to see the Simpsons picture, it's on our Facebook page.
Speaker 6:It looks just like Mars.
Speaker 1:It does, it does. So check it On Saturday. It's time for Holly's official cannonball pool party forecast Today. Okay, here's the actual weather Sunny and windy, not as windy, but hotter, 90 with more. Look right now beautiful blue skies, beautiful, A lot of sunshine today. So if you're going to the pool today, five cannonballs means you probably need to stay in the water a lot. One means not a good water day. So what do we get today? How many cannonballs? One means not a good water day. So what do we get today? How many cannonballs.
Speaker 6:So we're going to go with four cannonballs today. It's going to be hot, it's going to be humid, it's going to be sunny, it's going to be partly cloudy, but you still need that sunscreen.
Speaker 1:It's going to be a cannonball day. It's a good day to stay in the water a lot and give us at least throw out there four cannonballs, yeah, gotcha. So there you go. Top of the quote of the day. It's our words of wisdom. This one I heard over the weekend from a service and it just hit me when she said it and I thought you know, we need to. I don't remember her name. Sorry, I don't remember her name. That was somebody I was watching online. I told you about it. I said this means a lot if you stop and think about it for a second. So go ahead and tell them the quote of the day.
Speaker 6:The quote of the day is your history does not define your destiny. I love that because I feel like we've all been through so much and so many hard things and it feels like you can't get past it. Like the pandemic financial troubles, I mean, the whole economy has crashed right I feel like that history is not going to define who we are in the future no, but you've made a mistake.
Speaker 1:It's in the past yes you got to move forward.
Speaker 6:Don't let what you've done in the past define you your future yeah we all make mistakes yeah, and this is calling out every kind of mistake that you've made. If, if you have done anything in your life, it does not define you. You can move past. That you will deserve.
Speaker 1:Second chances, absolutely, absolutely. So let's think about it now. Your history does not define your destiny. If you made a mistake, you know, don't let that just sit there and beat yourself up over it day after day after day. Because you made a mistake, you've got to pick yourself up and move on. Don't let that define you. That's right. You can do better things.
Speaker 6:You can.
Speaker 1:But you can't if you just keep sitting and wallowing in your worrying about what you did before. Mm-hmm, yep, all right, 7.15.
Speaker 4:Mary and Holly on Alabama's Country, Giant WQSB.
Speaker 1:Well, our Woodstock dog food collection continues over 13,555. And I'll be honest, it's more, but we don't know how much more. Yeah, because somebody has lost her sheet. Our sheet's missing. I hate to say that, but it's official.
Speaker 6:We don't know where it's at.
Speaker 1:We've looked everywhere the total is unofficial.
Speaker 6:It's an unofficial over 13,000 pounds.
Speaker 1:We know it's at least 13,555. That's what it was 24 hours ago. Yes, and we have a sheet out in the lobby that when people come in, we write down how much they donate and we get their name and we get their T-shirt and move on. But right now we don't know.
Speaker 6:Because somebody moved the sheet.
Speaker 1:Yeah, somebody stole it, heads will roll.
Speaker 6:I think they stole it.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's what I think.
Speaker 6:I saw it on a Simpsons episode.
Speaker 1:I think a cat burglar got it.
Speaker 6:A cat burglar Dog food and a cat, oh my God.
Speaker 1:I think there's jealousy among the cat. Do the?
Speaker 6:crickets. Do the crickets yes?
Speaker 1:I think there's jealousy among the cat world.
Speaker 6:No, they say we've got to stop this We've got to.
Speaker 3:first move is to get that sheet.
Speaker 1:Go Fuzzy, get it, get it. We'll paralyze him, we'll cut him off of the knees.
Speaker 6:QSP won't be able to function without the sheet. All I have to do is come in with Scott here, because he's probably asleep he wouldn't know.
Speaker 1:They could tap dance on his head. It wasn't that big of a mosquito. But anyway, keep on bringing the dog food, because Saturday's a big day. The Marshall County Jeep Wranglers.
Speaker 6:Oh, I can't wait.

Speaker 6:You cannot open your mouth that wide. No, and eat that much food.
Speaker 1:So this is in honor of the Olympics.
Speaker 6:Yeah, but who could eat that God?
Speaker 1:None of the Olympians could.
Speaker 6:Well, Michael Phelps, he said that he ate like 20,000 calories a day.
Speaker 1:Could you imagine a gym like Simone Biles? There's no way you could vault by treating that.
Speaker 6:It probably weighs more than she weighs.
Speaker 1:It's bigger than she would have to vault to the bathroom after eating this.
Speaker 6:She would absolutely Tumble, flip, twist and vault.
Speaker 1:And stick the landing on the potty Stick the landing. I hope she sticks it. I would hope so, but that would be a meal for two is what I think.

Speaker 1:Be afraid to say yes.
Speaker 6:Yeah.
Speaker 1:I don't know. Yeah, that's three out of ten people.
Speaker 6:I believe that. I believe that yeah, yeah seven percent of women blow dry their hair before weighing themselves because they believe it makes them lighter does it?

Speaker 1:Hello, this is me, dylan Scott, and my girl is 814. Sunshine. Back to being hot again today. Today, officially, is the first day of summer. The first full day is tomorrow, but today about 320, is when we officially kick off summer is when we officially kick off summer and it's going to be the longest day of the year. Everybody always says how can it be longer than the other days? It just means more daylight than the usual days. You'll have more daylight today than usual, and then tomorrow we go back the other direction like a minute a day. We start getting less daylight every day. That's what I hate.
Speaker 6:I know I hate that, but I also hate going to sleep when the sun's out, so you feel guilty. I know I should be working, I know yeah, but anyway that's going on.
Speaker 1:Hey, we've got more animal stories coming up. We'll give you the latest update on the waddles the goose and gunners, where we found somebody to help us and hopefully help uh, rescue and treat waddles the goose who has an injured foot, and we'll tell you more about that. But I saw another story, another animal story, an extra one here, uh, australia. I would love to visit australia oh yeah but there's so many videos and stories about, they probably have the most, uh, dangerous, dangerous poisonous animals, I think probably even their, I don't know their grasshoppers their, their grasshoppers probably can kill you their fleas with laser beams out of their eyes or something.
Speaker 1:Yes, something, I mean it's, but here's another one. They have some of the snakes are like everywhere.
Speaker 5:Yeah.
Speaker 1:There's a video. We found Someone. A family woke up and they found. It doesn't say what exactly the details were, but they found a snake in their child's bed.
Speaker 6:No.
Speaker 1:And they called the snake people in their child's bed. No, and they called the snake people. You can make a good living if you're a snake person in Australia because they are always getting calls. It's a venomous, red-bellied black snake was removed from the bed and you can see the video of when the guy walked into the bedroom and there's the snake laying in the child's bed. Now there's no details telling us whether the child was in the bed at the time, whether the child maybe was in another bed and the snake was there. But Seth doesn't say the child is okay, Nobody was hurt. But it shows them getting the snake out of the bed.
Speaker 6:I'm watching the video and being really careful with the snake and you said this one's venomous yes.
Speaker 1:it says these are one of the most frequently encountered snakes on the east coast of Australia, responsible for a number of bites every year. This one was in a child's bed.
Speaker 6:And what's scary is he's just a solid black snake, like he doesn't have those red diamond back. No, or one of those.
Speaker 5:What are those?
Speaker 1:I have no idea. Yes, one of those.
Speaker 5:What are those? I have no idea.
Speaker 6:Yes, you do, it's the snakes that go. The rattlesnake, yeah, rattlesnake, oh my gosh, the rattlesnake, the ones that do what?
Speaker 1:That's not what a rattlesnake sounds like.
Speaker 6:Yes, it is?
Speaker 1:It sounds like maracas.
Speaker 6:It's the same thing.
Speaker 1:I'm never going to go in the woods with you because you could hear that and say I don't know what that is, Shika, shika, shika, shika. So no, you're not going. We're never going hiking or camping ever, Because I'd be dead, because there'd be a snake next to you and you wouldn't even know what it was.
Speaker 6:I'd be like, hey, there's one of those shika, shika, shika snakes. It's a rattlesnake, it's terrifying. I cannot imagine. First of all, finding this snake in my house, yeah, but much less my daughter's bed, boo-hoo, yeah, I would probably never go to that house again, I abandon it.
Speaker 1:And you thought fleas or other animals or mice were a problem. Yeah, yeah, wait until you find one of these in your bed, boo-hoo-hoo-hoo.
Speaker 4:No thank you, that's scary, that's scary 818. Wqsb Mornings with Barry and Holly.

Speaker 1:We're laughing, but serious yeah but if you missed the story, now we have an update on Waddle the Goose from Lake Guntersville.
Speaker 2:Yes.
Speaker 1:And we were lucky enough this morning. Waddles, the Goose from Lake Guntersville, and we were lucky enough this morning. It's like the skies opened and we received word that there's somebody you should call and we did and we've got some good news. Now it looks like Waddles. Hopefully, if everything goes well, is going to be taken care of, possibly this Sunday.
Speaker 6:Yes, we are going to meet with Miss Judy. From let's see, let's see here, oh, miss Judy. From let's see, let's see here. Oh, miss Judy, we're going to meet with Judy on Sunday, sunday afternoon. So nobody worry about wattles, we are going to take care of him we hope wattles can hang around until Sunday. Yes.
Speaker 1:And she said by looking at it, now she's with, she helps do these type of things. And she said this from looking at the video and the pictures that we took yesterday. We did it again yesterday, Went down there and checked on wattles and the growth is still on its foot.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 1:And we could see some fishing line at the back of it. She thinks, from looking at it, it got some fishing line wrapped around its foot and she thinks it's something that could be an infection.
Speaker 6:It does. It does look like an infection. There's something, something definitely wrong with wattles, but we'll.
Speaker 1:We'll figure it out and I think with miss judy's help she's with sneeze farmhouse sneeze farmhouse that's right, so she's gonna drive over here and help us for an hour. She's an hour away from us gonna help catch it, yeah, and then look at it and and take it to a vet that does things for her and let them take a look at it and see if there's anything that can be done.
Speaker 6:And we want to say thank you, because she said that this will be totally covered on them. Yeah. The vet bills everything that they're doing is covered by the vet and by Miss Judy, and that's Sneed Farmhouse.
Speaker 1:Sneed Farmhouse. Sneed Farmhouse.
Speaker 6:Sneed Farmhouse. Sneed Farmhouse.
Speaker 1:Be sure to check out her Facebook page, because she has all kinds of animals there. Yeah, they're really neat. And her main goal in life is to work with people, but she also works with animals on the side.
Speaker 6:Yeah, and I love it because she has kind of a mental health stance and she helps with addiction recovery, right, and she uses these animals almost like a service animal and I think that animals do bring a lot of joy, I know they do.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, and that's why I'm just fascinated by wattles, the goose that I hate to see any kind of animal. People on Facebook are saying, oh, it's just an animal, big deal, it is a big deal.
Speaker 6:It is a big deal, I don't want to see any animals suffer. Like we said, when we saw him two weeks ago when we were walking, we thought maybe he had stuck his foot in the mud or something. Who knows. We're like, oh, look, that duck's got something on his foot. That's weird, yeah. Then we went back a week later. There he was waddling same stuff and we were like, okay, this isn't right no but we posted it on facebook.
Speaker 6:People have seen him. But if you see him, just let him be, because we're coming to get him on Sunday and we're going to rescue Waddles.
Speaker 1:So if you want to see pictures and the video of what we're talking about, it's on our Facebook page. We just named it Waddles because it kind of waddles around because it can't walk very well.

Speaker 1:And time before we head out. The quote of the day. By the way, thank you to Rebecca Young. She's our listener of the day. Thank you, rebecca, for listening and you're going to get a morning show t-shirt. Now the quote of the day. We like to do this something inspiring. I heard this one over the weekend and I thought, you know, I never really thought of it this way, but this one kind of hit home and it means so much Because so many people have had things that happened to them in the past and they feel like because of that they are kind of maybe branded, they can't move forward, they're kind of stuck and they're living in the past. But this quote kind of says tells you something differently yeah, it does.
Speaker 6:The quote. I love this quote. The quote of the day is your history does not define your destiny. No, and I love that, because we've all made mistakes in our lives. We've all gone through things that we wish we hadn't have. I've gone through a divorce, heartache, you know all that stuff, and that divorce does not define my destiny. What is ahead of me?
Speaker 1:No, and no matter what has happened to you in the past, you can get through it. You can get past it and don't let that keep you stuck in the past, because move forward and there's going to be a better day. But you've got to keep trying. You've got to keep moving forward, just like Waddles the goose. Waddles has a problem and we're trying to help it out and, thanks to the great people in this area by giving us names and phone numbers, we're going to make this goose's life better.
Speaker 6:Yes, we are, hopefully, anyway. Yes, we are, we are going to save this goose, no matter what we have to do. So y'all, just let it be until Sunday. We're going to go pick them up and we'll keep everybody updated on every step of the way. With wattles, sure will.
