Anna: Welcome to Lipscomb Academy Student Network. I’m Anna Sager.

Scott: And I’m Scott Brons. And this is Good Morning Mustangs. The high today is 53 and low is 46. Looks like there is a 0% chance of precipitation.

Anna: It’s so cold! Mustang fans better bundle up tonight at the game.

Scott: And now, Anna, let’s hear about today in history. November 21 has been quite the busy day over the past 200 years or so…

Anna: In 1785, the first hot air balloon was made.

In 1871, Emilio Onra was the first human cannonball to be shot!

In 1877, Thomas Edison announced his new invention: the phonograph.

In 1906, China prohibited the opium trade.

In 1946, Truman was the first president to travel in a submarine.

Scott: And just one year ago, in 2013, the Alabama parole board granted pardon to 3 members of the Scottsboro boys.

Isn’t it incredible what has happened today? What can you do today in history?

Anna: And now to today’s top stories.

Scott: Missouri executed a man for murdering a gas station attendant in front of the attendant’s daughter. This is Missouri’s ninth execution this year. And naturally, Texas has ten.

On Kickstarter, a website where people or companies can raise money for projects, a British consortium is trying to raise $780 million to land a probe on the moon. It is reported that Kennedy rolled over in his grave and said, “55 years late, Brits.” Merica.

Dr. Salia, from Sierra Leone, has died from Ebola. This is the 2nd death here in the U.S. He died in a Nebraska hospital. His last words were, “Dying from Ebola is at least better than being here in Nebraska.”

Anna: Net Neutrality is the concept that internet providers cannot retrain or filter what we have on the internet. So Comcast couldn’t slow down Netflix on purpose so you’d buy their cable. Obama spearheaded this problem and saved Net Neutrality. Now we can all less sarcastically say, “Thanks Obama.”

Japan is suffering a recession. Their stock markets have fallen significantly. So I guess you could say their economy is bombed…

Scort: Bill Cosby cancelled his appearance on the David Letterman’s show; for the viewers who don’t know the show’s primary demographic is old, white people. Which is so strange because why would old, white people not want to see a black man who has been accused of rape.

Anna: Thank you for listening, this has been Good Morning Mustangs.

Scott: Good Morning.
