Back in the day they used to have shotgun weddings.  Daughter gets pregnant and the father shows up with the shotgun and forces the baby's father to marry his pregnant daughter.  But in the new day, those actions have been long forgotten.  In most cases the birth of a child doesn't even guarantee that the couple will even remain cordial to one another let alone marriage. So, with that goes the concept of family.  The single parent home has become the norm.

We've all been guilty of staring into the television in hopes of some guy doing the "I am not the father" dance and running into the audience to high five everyoe in sight. Or watching the woman who swore that she was 1000% sure that the baby was his dash into the backstage when the results are not in her favor. Perhaps paternity tests should just be mandatory.  Call in this Tuesday and comment on the HOT TOPIC ~ "SHOULD PATERNITY TESTS BE MANDATORY BEFORE SIGNING THE BIRTH CERTIFICATE" Call 760.283.4647 to listen in and comment!!  You can also see the LIVE STREAM at >> http://bit.ly/eblock1

The internet has made everyone less personable.  There is so much communication done through electronic transfer that a lot  of people have lost the art of face to face communication.  With that said, the internet has also given people access to information that they once had to actually "TALK" to someone to find out. Now you can just GOOGLE somebody and find out everything you've ever wanted to know!  Some women see it as a preacautionary tactic, but is it a bit more invasive?  Tuesday at 7pm, call into the LIVEST cloud talk radio show in the planet, STRAIGHT FROM THE E-BLOCK!  HOT TOPIC ~ "Is It A Good Idea To Google Someone You Have Just Started Dating?"
