“My desire is to drink strawberry champagne”

A broadcaster, when on air, needs to convert his two hands into four – to prepare the next song, read the text messages, click on the messages sent via YM, scan prepared materials for the program.

This morning Ate Faith, our internet broadcast listener from Canada ,sent me a long message via Yahoo. So, as I was reading text messages while preparing for my songs and at the same time scanning my prepared material for the song intro, I picked out words from her message and sent out greetings on the air for her. In her message I picked out the following words dinner out, my desire and strawberry champagne. My greeting for her went something like this. “ Hi Ate Faith, thank you for tuning in, wow, its so romantic that you and your husband just came home after having a quite dinner somewhere…and you desiring to drink strawberry champagne? hmmmm do I sense a celebration coming? Di ba? when one says champagne, celebration agad to! And Strawberry pa? Galing!” And then went on to play my next song.

While the song is playing, I replied to her yahoo message and had the time to reread her message. To my horror what Ate Faith actually wrote was…” Hi Maggie, my husband and I just came home from our dinner. I already bought the stuff I told you about.  My desire and strawberry champagne (Victoria Secret lotions). See you!

Har har har!
