Show Biz: Wednesday 03/04/09

*** Chris Rea was our feature on the birthday segment today. The singer turned 58 today.

Back in 1978, he had a hit with "Fool If You Think It's Over."




*** Emilio Estefan -- Gloria's husband, not to be confused with Emilio Estevez -- is also having a birthday today.

For the 80's Escape, listeners all across Grundy County were certainly singing "uh-oh-uh-oh" along with the Miami Sound Machine's 1985 hit, "Falling In Love".




*** The strangest story of the morning was about the woman in Florida that called 9-1-1 because the McDonald's she was at had run out of Chicken McNuggets.

The counter person tried to get the woman, LaTreasa Goodman, to take other food instead. Goodman wanted her money back, didn't get it, and called 9-1-1. Of course.

She actually called three separate times. The audio can be found here.

Goodman has been cited for misuse of 9-1-1.

Authorities have said to her that if she calls 9-1-1 about a McDonalds food complaint one more time, they're going to super-size the charges.
