As you know, Monnie Whiteson has decided to leave Magic to pursue other interests that mean a great deal to her.  I do know that she is writing a book about becoming a mid life orphan and she also wants to do a television show somewhere down the line.   It was a wonderful experience working with such a talented lady who became a good friend too.  We’ll all miss Monnie….so in the meantime Chris will continue in the morning until a replacement is announced and hopefully that won’t be too long…..Lee

Don’t forget that our own Monnie Whitson of Monnie in the Morning will be making a special announcement tomorrow (Friday) morning between 7:15 and 7:45am…tune in to find out what its all about….thanks for tuning in my show on Magic each day….Lee

I hope you begin your day with Monnie Whitson , who has the best morning show in the market.  She is so upbeat and is involved with so many events that go on in the upstate….Monnie will have a special announcement to make on her show this Friday, March 26th between 7 and 8 am.   So be sure you’re tuned in.  By the way, all this week on my 80’s show, you can win a gift card to Blue Fin Grill in Spartanburg…..thanks for listening….Lee

Even though I was not there…Monnie Whitson told me that there was a fantastic turnout for the Tolloni Shoe Party on Saturday at  the downtown location.  Thanks for coming out and enjoying all of the fun and to get a glimpse of the spring and summer fashions.   Hope you had a good weekend despite the rain on Sunday.  Join me all week for an opportunity to win a gift card from Blue Fin Grill in Spartanburg on the 80’s lunch…..thanks for your loyalty to Magic 98.9….Lee

Hope your weekend is a good one as we bring in spring officially today…but maybe some rain on Sunday…..be sure to include us in your weekend plans with the very best of today’s lite rock.  We always have something good to offer you on our website so check it out at www.magic989online.com ….join me for my Sunday afternoon show this weekend on Magic….talk with you later…Lee

I know a week is not a long time but it seemed that way to me as my late winter vacation ended on Sunday and I was back behind the mic on Monday of this week, which I might add, was a really good feeling.  Rarely does a person find a profession that gives them the satisfaction that I have found in radio and especially here on Magic 98.9.  As we get ready for springtime there’ll be lots of fun events here on the station that I know will will love not to mention the warmer weather after a long and cold winter…….thanks for listening……Lee

Since the weather is beginning to look and feel more like spring, I thought this would be a good time to take a few days off and enjoy doing some activities outside of the radio station….so I’ll be back at work on the 15th of March.  Bo will be here to do my show and of course the Totally 80’s Lunch.  I do look forward to visiting with my sister who lives in Atlanta….It’ll be a quick trip but will be really good to see her and some family members.  We are gearing up for the spring time full of fun things to do on Magic so  take care and will talk with you a little later on.

After enduring a cold and snowy winter…it finally looks like we are in for a fantastic weekend with temperatures climbing into the 60’s…so find an excuse to get out and do  something fun…like the Home and Garden Show at the Carolina First Center or maybe the Clemson-South Carolina baseball game at Fluor Field on Saturday.  I’m taking a few days off next week before we get started with all of the fun things lined up this spring on Magic….have a good weekend and will talk with you later…Lee

After all of the misery caused by the earthquake in Haiti…..another magnitude of 8.8  earthquake has hit Chili causing a huge loss of life….over 700 as of yesterday and there will be many more fatalities.  The American Red Cross is making an initial pledge of $50,000.00 from its International Response Fund.  If you would like to make a donation to help with this latest disaster, call 1-800-Help Now or log onto  www.redcross.org …………thanks for your generosity and compassion….Lee
