CLOVIS...YOU WANTED THE BEST, YOU GOT THE BEST!  THE HOTTEST SCRATCHERS IN THE WORLD...KISS!!  That's right, rock lovers!  The KISS scratchers are here, and I'm gonna give you a chance to win some!  Starting today, and for the next two weeks, be listening to the Morning Menu.  At some point during the show, you're gonna hear a sound clip of a KISS song.  If you can be the first caller to tell me the title of the song from the clip, I'm gonna give you a free KISS lottery scratcher, plus an authentic KISS 2010 tour t-shirt.  And remember, if your scratcher isn't a winner, you can log onto nmlottery.com and enter your scratcher in a second chance drawing for a trip for two to see KISS in concert in Phoenix in September.  You won't just be going to SEE the band, you'll get to MEET the band!  Plus a lot of other great gifts and prizes.  The contest will run for the next two weeks, so don't miss out on your chance to win.  Be listening to the Morning Menu between 6 and 9 a.m. every weekday morning to hear the sound clip, and be ready to dial 474-742-1015 as soon as you do.  Good luck!!!

There will also be our trivia challenge as well at 8:30 every morning.  I have some GREAT prizes to give away this week, so get your knowledge on, be tuned in, and get your hands on one of them.  Also, Len Vohs will be in at 7:30 this morning for our Monday Movie Review, and he will have 2 free passes to give out to one lucky caller as well.

For those of you following our Pet of the Week segments with Melissa Santaella from Wandering Tails Animal Rescue, you need to know that she now has a new local phone number.  It is: 575-218-3605.  Also, I probably also need to let you know that she is no longer working in conjunction with the Portales Animal Shelter.  So, if you have an animal you need to re-home, find a stray that needs a home, or whatever the case may be, please contact Melissa directly at the number listed above.  You can also log on to her website by clicking here

Feel free to email me anytime at lisa@q1015.com with any questions, requests or comments!  Thanks for listening!

In regards to the contests and prize giveaways that we do on Q101.5, it is important that I make clear a few of the rules and stipulations we have in place.  We do these giveaways as a show of our appreciation to YOU, our listeners.  It is a WANT TO thing, not a HAVE TO.  We enjoy doing it because its fun.  But, unfortunately, when it comes to getting things for free, there are always some individuals out there who try to take advantage.  Because of that, it is our job to regulate these contests and keep them FAIR.  We don't believe that it IS fair to keep giving out prizes to the same individuals all the time.  I often have people tell me that they are constantly trying to call in to answer contest questions, or be the designated caller for a pair of event tickets, and get nothing but a busy signal every time.  Then there are others that somehow manage to get through several times over the course of one run of calls.  I can't explain the technology behind our telecommunication system, and why that is, but that is what seems to happen.  So, we do enforce a few rules to try keep any one listener, or group of listeners, from having any unfair advantages, and one is that there can only be ONE WINNER PER HOUSEHOLD every 30 days when it comes to daily prizes (such as our trivia challenge, NM Lottery Scratcher giveaways, or CCC Cultural Arts Performance tickets, etc).  If you have won something within the last 30 days.... PLEASE DON'T TRY AGAIN UNTIL THAT 30 DAYS IS UP.  We have recently had one individual call in and win several things over the course of a two or three week period and use a different name each time.  I would REALLY hate to start asking our listeners to present I.D. when coming to pick up their prize, but if that kind of thing continues to occur, that is exactly what we may have to do.  When it comes to the BIG prizes, like trips, or the Elton John concert tickets, and things of that nature, those prize winners will not be eligible to enter another big contest for a year, and will not be eligible for a smaller daily prize for 90 days.

I realize that contests will differ in nature, and manner in which they are competed for...and in the midst of that, loop-holes will be sought by those players like the one mentioned above.  Just know that the loop-holes are constantly being tightened by Mike Summer and myself, NOT to make anyone angry, but to keep it FAIR.  This sometimes requires us to make a judgement call in terms of qualification or disqualification, and please know we reserve the right to do that at our own discretion.   As I said earlier...contests are supposed to be FUN.  Those who try and take advantage not only suck all the fun out of it for US, but for all others who participate as well.
