Froggy’s Metal Detecting Finds

Roxanne Wilder August 19th

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.

Froggy’s Favorite Coffee Mugs

When you start your day before the sun is up in the five o’clock hour, it always helps to have some coffee to get you going. MJ is a very strange bird in that he doesn’t need coffee to start his day. He’s a ball of chatty energy on his own. But I need both tea and coffee, and Fester has a splash of coffee with his 15 packets of sugar and 12 ounces of cream, and Froggy drinks coffee and sometimes energy drinks.

I, personally, enjoy drinking coffee on the weekends because that’s when I drink it out of a mug (at work, it’s out of a Styrofoam cup). Drinking coffee in a mug is a nice, relaxing ritual.

Froggy came up with his list of his favorite coffee mugs. Here are the “mug” shots and what he had to say about each.

  • Dirty Bird Coffee Mug

    The first mug is one I love because it has every single bird on it that has a name that sounds dirty, including the tufted titmouse, which is my favorite bird.

  • Father’s Day Mug With My Lil Homies

    The second mug is one of my favorites because it was the first mug given to me by my kids on my first Father’s Day.

  • News Channel 8 Coffee Mug

    The News Channel 8 mug means a lot because it was given to me live on the news and live on-air on the MJ Morning Show by the news anchor Avery Cotten, who is class personified. I applied to win a mug online and kept losing so they brought one to me.

  • Rodfather Coffee Mug

    And finally, my Rodfather mug made the list because it was given to me by Roxanne on mÿ birthday, supposedly because I love fishing and Godfather movies. And for some reason the coffee always tastes better in this mug.
