Or Kirk County officials said.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
That quickly declining number was from tours in the area
who left without any notification, but they have been identified.
Oh wow, that is fantastic news. And it may feel
like one hundred, but we haven't officially hit one hundred degrees.
Speaker 2 (01:00):
Yet this year. Well, that'll happen tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
So while we've got the official high tomorrow one hundred,
we still have the heat index, so it's going to
mean one hundred and ten plus, So it's going to
be super hot tomorrow, super hot today too. I mean
we are going to go up to ninety seven. It's
going to feel like one hundred and ten. And Friday's
the day that we might get a little relief our
feel good Friday might bring in some rain. Right now,
(01:24):
it's eighty and uptown and you're up to date on sunny.
Tell me something good. Brought to us by our friends
at Goodwill Houston. A very lucky cat in Ingram near
the floods has been found by one of those amazing volunteers.
This volunteer is from Samaritan's Purse, an incredible organization. The
(01:45):
volunteer was helping to clear out a home along the
Guadalupe River that was destroyed. The volunteer decided to look
inside the oven and there inside was this precious cat.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Weak and dehydrated, but alive.
Speaker 1 (02:00):
The lucky cat is now at Aws Freeman Fritz Bett
Clinic and Shelter getting the love it needs. Thank goodness
that volunteer checked inside the oven.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Can you imagine a producer.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Anthony Dane speaking of cats A great example of how
our men and women in blue always go above and beyond.
This past weekend, a Freeport Police officer did just that.
On Sunday was Officer Gonzalez, who jumped into action after
hearing faint cries coming from a storm drain. What he
discovered was a kitten stranded deep inside the pipe, unable
to escape on its own, and of course, without hesitation.
He crawls into the drain, comes out moments later with
(02:34):
kittens safe in his arms. The sweet cat is now
safe and recovering. He's been nicknamed Michael Angelo by the department.
In a fun post, they wrote, you've officially earned your
stripes as core paral. I love it so great job
Officer Gonzales with the Freeport Police Department, serving and protecting everyone,
including the fur babies.
Speaker 2 (02:52):

Speaking of amazing, there's a new bill filed in this
special session that's underway now proposing a teacher's classroom Supply
savings account starting next year. If you're eligible, you'd be
given a thousand bucks to buy classroom supplies. And here's
a way though, that we can help teachers get even
(03:15):
more money to buy school supplies.

our Nearly Impossible question at six for that experts say
we should not go cheap with our mattress.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
Literally, mattresses are life saving.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Without a good night's sleep, we can get all kinds
of health problems, especially if you are wake up in
the middle of the night like Anthony and I. Do
you know you just you need whatever quality sleep you
can get danger even if you can't get your eight hours.
And we're asking you about your mattress. Did you go cheap?
Did you go all out? And we have got Jerry
(04:27):
calling in from Mont Bellevue. Now, you drive a semi
so you definitely need a good night sleep. Did you
go cheap on your mattress or did you get a
superstar one?
Speaker 2 (04:37):

Speaker 4 (04:37):
Oh no, we got a superstar mattress.
Speaker 2 (04:39):
All right, tell us about your mattress wife, ever.
Speaker 4 (04:41):
Since we've been married. It's it's not total top. It's
just a real, real, nice, soft mattress.

at the Baybrook mall.
Speaker 1 (05:00):
Okay, and so how long have you owned this cooling mattress?
Speaker 4 (05:03):
Well, the one that we have now is about four
years old.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Okay, they're fantastic and so would you remember when you
brought it home and you and your wife slept in
it that night you wake up feeling so good?

mattress makes all the difference in your life, right, and
it does.

But also my pillow. I'm very picky with my pillows.
Speaker 2 (05:43):

Speaker 4 (05:46):
I don't know what name Brandon is, but it's kind
of a hard pillow and my wife has had the
real soft one.
Speaker 1 (05:53):
Oh yeah, yeah, that's what's your wife's name. Well, at
least you two found some commonalities in the mattress and
then you each choose your own pillow. So you have
an amazing night sleep. So you probably don't get to
sleep that much. So sleep is important, Yes it is.
Speaker 4 (06:10):
And I mean I can lay down on the bed
within minutes. I'm out.
Speaker 2 (06:14):
Wow, that's the way to be. That's how it should be. Ye,
there's someone who gets up at two in the morning. Nope, Jerry,
I feel you. That's the way Anthony and I Loanda.
