Seperated at Birth?





As you know, Roger wears many hats in the production of the Roger and Roy Morning Show. As the director and only staff member of our news department, he researches the local news, the state news, the national news, and even World News. (For our Sports department, Roger has a staff of one - Royce Hickman - but that's only 7-9a Thursdays)
That's why recently Roger made the stunning discovery that Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad bears a striking resemblance to... Barney Rubble! That's right Fred's close buddy may also be a Mid-East dictator! Here's a side-by-side comparison. Make your own determination. It may all be a hoax, but- think of it- have you ever seen the two of them together at the same time in the same room?
College Station City Council and CS-ISD are trying figure out who and how to pay for "No Cell Phone Use" signs in school zones. National guidelines insist warning signs must be posted before authorities can enforce new laws banning phone usage in school areas (this is for drivers, not students - but that's another story for another day). But there's a problem: It will cost $10,000 - $50,000 to manufacture and install the 50-odd signs needed (if the additional messages are posted on existing speed limit sign poles, it will cost 10k for below and 50k for above the speed numbers). Guess what? Neither one wants to have to pay for them. So, it's back to the Transportation Committee to "revisit" and "recommend" a solution. The KORA Morning Show thinks we should get the schools involved and have students make colorful cardboard signs during art classes.
Alan Jackson's House is for sale! Look what you can get for just 38 million dollars (a steal in these difficult economic times)

Finally, some guys from an organization called "Dude Perfect" have posted a video purporting to show The World's Longest Basketball Shot. It was made at Kyle Field (what, not Reed?). They say they are awaiting confirmation from Guinness to make the claim official. Jordan Meserole from the Chamber of Commerce was visiting this morning and said he could verify the feat, as he was a camera operator at KBTX and was present when the shot was accomplished.
