Speaker A:So hide your credit cards because the cardboard box pyramid on the porch is returning.
Speaker A:Production companies are confirming that Shrek 5 is scheduled to hit movie theaters next year on June 30th.
Speaker A:It's amazing that our kids who watched the very first movie now have their own kids to take to Shrek 5.
Speaker A:But at least the soundtrack is guaranteed to be better than anything teenagers listen to today.
Speaker A:A University of Massachusetts Amherst study has confirmed that sleeping on a decision indeed improves cognitive reasoning skills and logic.
Speaker A:So sleep on it is a good thing.
Speaker A:A quick consumer survey shows that women are significantly more likely than men to clean up after their dogs.
Speaker A:The least shocking headline of the year.
Speaker A:Men can spot a deer from a mile away, but somehow become blind to dog poo.
Speaker A:There has been such a surge in pet snake ownership that it has created this massive unregulated factory farming industry to breed millions of feet feeder mice annually.
Speaker A:And no offense to snake lovers, you do you.
Speaker A:But for me, if.
Speaker A:If a pet requires a freezer full of frozen mice, I'm.
Speaker A:I'm good.
Speaker A:I'm out.
Speaker A:Thousands of Scottish soccer fans visiting Boston for the World cup have completely drank the local Sam Adams tap room out of lager, which is easily the most impressive performance of the entire World cup thus far.
Speaker A:Snapchat's parent company has launched new smart glasses.
Speaker A:You can pre order them for the low, low price of $2,195 and surf the web with eyeglasses.
Speaker A:Two grand to check your email while looking like a confused sci fi character.
Speaker A:Actor Bradley Cooper is set to star in an upcoming political drama about January 6, directed by Hollywood veteran Sean Penn.
Speaker A:So put that movie on after Thanksgiving dinner and then Thanksgiving night will have more fireworks than the Fourth of July.
Speaker A:It is the 18th day of June.
Speaker A:It is International Picnic Day and International Panic Day, so celebrate both by forgetting to put the bottle of wine in the basket.
Speaker A:It is also, and I'm not making this one up either, it's National Go Fishing Day and International Sushi Day.
Speaker A:Anyone up for a largemouth bass roll?
