Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:01):
Thank you, ma'am. I'm time for heyday in the morning,
quickie on ninety a rock brought to you by bar
Joe for right hig of eighty one. Today, average temperature
across the bank cooler on the coast fifty eighth to low.
It looks like more rain coming for the weekend. AJA,
good morning.

Speaker 2 (00:16):
Hey, that's definitely needed because due to a significant thirteen
inch rainfall deficit this past rainy season, the city of
Tampa is well experiencing severe water constraints in the Hillsboro
River Reservoir. So now they've been purchasing ten million gallons
of water daily from Tampa Bay Water. Now, because of this,

(00:37):
residents are going to observe a temporary search charge on
your monthly utility bills. They say it's going to typically
average about five bucks or so. Of course, the city
is urgently asking all customers to adhere strictly to water
conservation guidelines and prescribed watering schedules to manage those resources responsibly.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
Just I'll have the water run and run rock.

Speaker 2 (01:00):
You know, it annoys me when we do get rain
and people still have all the sprinklers.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
That thing's going off.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
That happens so many times.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
Yeah, we make that not an issue and even rain sensors.
So yeah, your stuff together.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
Hey, Aerosmith no longer a part of Disney's a rock
and roller coaster. It is officially Dune though it was
a staple of the park since nineteen ninety nine, and
they're taking it down well because it's now being overhauled
to be turned into the Muppets version. The Muppets banned
the electric mayhem. They'll be taking over the rock and

(01:37):
roller coaster and which riders won't be embarking on a
search for the group when they go missing prior to
a concert.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
So kind of rebranding the coasters.

Speaker 2 (01:45):
Much Yeah, so who knows if a couple of other
things are going to change with it, but definitely a
rebrand for sure, but the right rights Vita Aerosmith Man.
That was when hell of a ryde for a long
time too, since nineteen ninety nine. Yeah, it was a
great ride the phone and reverse or all that is
every day follow a wrong and ride Kanta Socials.

Speaker 1 (02:05):

Speaker 2 (02:07):
And the term great rocking is in the news. The
idea is if you want to try and avoid emotional
arguments with your family during a holiday season, or anybody
for that matter, by being as boring as quote unquote
as a gray rock Now, a writer for the Associated
Press talk to experts about it, and not all of
them think it's a good idea. They think it could

(02:29):
backfire and cause tension or it maybe you could leave
you morsep us. But they say, in a pinch, it
could help you avoid that tense conversation with somebody that
you only see once or twice a year and you
just really don't want to have. Yeah, they say, quote unquote,
you know, talking politics for example, instead of taking the bait,
say something like, quote unquote, hmmm, interesting opinion. So how's

(02:50):
work going? Pivot pivot? Uh, they say, the idea is
none to give them the reaction or attention they want,
Just be boring, try and side step it and move
on to something else.

Speaker 1 (03:01):
That's the most awesome time at my root canal. The
other day colon Oscar Pie's word too. Yeah, there you go, opinion.

had rock?
