To Marry or Not to Marry

Hello there young man. So you come to ask me if you should get married.  It just so happens I have your answer. But we have to look at this in a completely different way. Let's start with this, what is your favorite soft drink?  Diet Pepsi? OK then, lets think this out

Time to Face My Fear of Being on TV

Last year was WGNA's first year teaming with Fox 23 and The Center to raise money.  So we had a tour of the Facility here in Albany.  It was an amazing tour.  Great people , great consumers and very uplifting

Terrorism in Our Schools

"Boys will be boys."  "Hey,  school is tough. "  "Let them fight it out, they will work it out."   These are the kind of things you hear when you are talking about bullies in school.  Even the word "bully" itself makes the act seem less than what it is.

Who Is Your Country Music Passion

Recently, under the influence of a few adult beverages I made an exclamation that my friends found humorous.  Maybe it was the utter conviction in which I said it, or maybe it was the randomness from which it came, but they thought it was funny enough to quote on their Facebook.  The quote was " The Zac Brown Band will change Country Music as we know it!"

Complain All You Want About The Weather

So someone on my Facebook wrote that she wishes people wouldn't complain about the cold weather, "It's January in Albany, NY. What does everyone expect?"

My First Kiss

I was reading today about a woman that wrote a book about kissing.  "The science of kissing: what our lips are telling us" by Sheril Kirshenbaum.  OF course, my first thought was "I should have so written a book about kissing."  But she does bring up a really interesting fact in her book.

Fun Facts About Our National Debt

Today I learned that the national debt this year is the highest it has ever been.  I hope you're sitting down - It is 14 trillion dollars.  Now people, especially our esteemed politicians throw around the words billion and trillion like they mean nothing.  So I thought you would like a little perspective on it.

This Babysitting Story Makes Me Mad

There's nothing I can think of as important in a parent's life as the babysitter.  Finding a good childcare specialist is crucial to a parents mental stability. That's why when I read this story, it just made me shake my head.

Playing The Google Game

I know we talked about this a long time ago on the show, but every once in a while I think about it and have to experiment with it.  I call it the "Google Game." It's actually very simple but also tells you a lot about people

Let It Snow

I bet most of you are not aware, but it's snowing out.  And we are getting hit with a lot of the cold white stuff.  I know it has dominated most all of the Facebook posts I've seen today and all of the news.

Breaking The Glass Ceiling

Just the other day I was having a long talk to my 12 year old son about school.  Specifically we talked about middle school and how hard it can be, how cruel the other kids could seem, and how hard it is to know where you "fit in". 

Cesar Millan Coming To The Palace

If you asked me what my favorite show on TV was right now, I would have to say " The Dog Whisperer"  on the National Geographic Channel.  I'm not sure how I found it, or why I watched it the first time, but I think its fair to say I am addicted.
