A social media video went viral with strategies from a Hooters waitress on how to earn more tips.

Sometimes when you watch these "advice viral videos," the advice is totally lame, and the headline is more exciting than the content. But this is not the case at all with this Hooters waitress' tips. She tells you everything you need to know to maximize your earnings as a Hooters server, or any server for that matter. Everything from who to make eye contact at with the table to memorizing lyrics to the music that's being played to connect with the guests.

This girl was really impressive to us. We guessed she's making six figures at the chicken wing restaurant, and she could be on her way to a career as a communication coach.

Froggy’s Metal Detecting Finds

Froggy has pastimes he enjoys when he's not busy making us laugh on the MJ Morning Show or running the shelving business. His favorite hobbies are magnet fishing, regular fishing, and metal detecting. So basically, he enjoys anything that has to do with using a rod of some sort to lure or attract things.

We recently chatted with him about his metal detecting scores and what makes it fun. Here's what he had to say:

My metal detecting obsession began almost 10 years ago when I moved into a new house, and there was a metal detector left in the garage. One day, I decided to try it out. I went around my yard and found all kinds of old coins and cool fishing lures, as well as old bullets.

Since then, I have purchased a better metal detector. Now my sons and I like to find spots where a lot of people congregate. One type of spot we've had good luck at is under bleachers at Little League parks. On one occasion, we actually found a ring.

I found these decades-old Hot Wheel cars.

Pretty cool, right?


Well, the coolest part is that I actually found these cars in my parent's backyard.

That means I basically found my old toys as a kid.


What are those initials?

Looks like it says "GJM."


Maybe the money belonged to George Michael?

He wasn't just careless with his whispers, but with his money, too, and accidentally dropped that money clip somewhere.


Found some bullets on the beach.

Hope these weren't used in some sort of a crime!


I found this weird bracelet.

The eagle design looks a little bit like the Freemason's eagle logo.


We've also found old coins.
