Sean McMaster — Thu, 04 Apr 2013 09:59:53 +0000

Here is Today's Daily Dilemma:

In a nutshell, My husband is very close to his Mom. I also love her very much and she is a wonderful Grandmother to our 2 kids.

She lives in another state with his Dad and we try to see them as much as possible, but I'm sure she would love to see her Grand kids more often.

That said, W

A Break From Facebook, Texting, And Email

Kevin Richards — Mon, 04 Mar 2013 14:38:14 +0000

Last week I hosted my annual Country Dance Cruise, and I challenged myself that while I was on a “working” vacation I would not use Facebook, Texting or Email. Although being on a cruise helps to ease the temptation, with expensive service fees and limited services, it was a good start. I survived a week [...]

Scott Blaine Discovers the Hulk Hogan Beach Shop In Florida

Scott Blaine — Wed, 05 Dec 2012 21:10:53 +0000

If you hadn't noticed I've been away for the last few days. I took a trip down to Florida for a little rest and relaxation and to visit some family. While in Florida, I headed to Clearwater Beach and was told by my sister that Hulk Hogan has a brand new store in the area. Being the long time wrestling fan that I am I had to go and check it out.

Disney World Magic – Levack Style

Levack — Thu, 13 Oct 2011 15:26:39 +0000

I haven't been on a true vacation in over 4 years. I've made a few small trips here and there and had some really great "Stay-Cations" but nothing I would call a true vacation. So when my sister Sandy informed me I would be going to Disney World this year (and yes SHE TOLD ME I WAS GOING) I got nervous and excited all at once. There was so much to do so that Ella (my 8 year old) and I could go BUT it was Disney and neither of us had ever been. My sister paid for everything but the flight so it was on! Let me tell you it was the greatest trip of my life. Disney World makes a child out of all of us but seeing my daughter's joy was AMAZING!

Vacations are usually a good thing. They give you a break from that daily grind. No matter how much you might like your job, it’s always good to take some time for you, and hopefully get some rest. I like to take at least one week of my vacation time, and do very little job [...]

The 5 Best Brooks & Dunn Covers on YouTube

Chris Kissel — Thu, 16 Jun 2011 15:03:03 +0000

Country singer Ronnie Dunn – one half of superduo Brooks & Dunn – talked with Taste of Country a bit last week about musicians that influenced him. Among Dunn’s more interesting recent influences: “I love Harrison’s slide guitar on ‘Something,’” the singer told Taste of Country.

Dunn has of course been impactful in his own wide-ranging way, and the wild diversity of Brooks & Dunn covers on YouTube are a pretty-great sample of his influence. Among the YouTube treasures we unearthed: a rocker girl singing a heartfelt cover of B&D’s ‘If You See Her, If You See Him’; a ukelele-toting troubadour singing his dog to sleep with ‘Neon Moon’; and a near-perfect bedroom rendition of ‘My Maria.’ Check ‘em out and more below, and don’t forget to sign up to see and meet Ronnie Dunn in Yakima, WA on July 21!

Well, as it stands now each person who buys a ticket for the now $244-million jackpot, has roughly one in 197 [...]

People In Charge Of Airport Security Stealing Money?

Richie Phillips — Fri, 18 Feb 2011 14:06:59 +0000

Let’s think about that for a second. They’re in charge of keeping your belongings safe! Figures! (disclaimer: not all TSA agents are untrustworthy slimeballs. Your experience may vary) Welcome to the ”What Is This World Coming To?” blog. According to Gizmodo.com, 2 TSA agents from JFK allegedly (that word was for the WGNA lawyers) stole [...]

How To Enjoy NASCAR

Sean McMaster — Wed, 16 Feb 2011 15:41:22 +0000

Drive fast, turn left. NO big deal. That’s the running joke about NASCAR. But there really is so much more to it than that. I know some people will just never understand it’s appeal but there are some of you out there who may have not given it a chance and may be missing out. [...]
