Good morning from the GMSA anchor desk.

Birthday boy Mark Austin is on vacation, but I’m lucky to have the very talented Max Massey join me for GMSA. I made him blush right off the top of the 4:30 -- he’s quickly learning you never know what will happen or be said on this show! He handled it like the pro he is. Wonder what was said? You should have been watching!

Shout out to the other birthday boy. Meteorologist Mike Osterhage celebrates his birthday tomorrow. Weird Mark and Mike were born one day (and 6 years) apart! Time to torture Max again (hee hee!)

Make it a fabulous Friday!

- Leslie, Max and birthday boy Mike
