Don't say they didn't warn you because here it is. The speed limit is officially changing on Washington Avenue this Friday.

The new carbon monoxide alarm went off about 8:30am Wednesday morning at the Price Chopper in Glenmont and it's a very good thing that it did. The store was evacuated and closed for approximately 2 hours

I watch these Olympic sports and I get jealous. My asthma doesn't allow a lot of cardio in my life. Don't get me wrong, I've played softball forever at this point, even when it wasn't easy to breathe. But alas, I'm not Olympian worthy. It did get me thinking though.

No one likes waiting in lines. We want everything at our finger tips. Well, now we have it.

We are so used to hearing different things about our local schools and communities that we don't even think that our very own could be some of the best around. I'm not just talking locally either, I'm talking nationally.

No injuries, no leaks, no spills - you could call it a miracle after 11 freight cars derail in Selkirk Saturday.

I've been playing softball since I was the tiny age of just 6 years old. Mom tried to get me to do ballet, it lasted about as long as a 6 inch sub on a lunch break. Sorry, Mom.

It's been a hot, HOT summer and that's not just because of the temperatures!

This job is cool. No, for real. It can been frustrating at times, with long hours that seem never ending, always having to be 'on' with perkiness when all you want to do is crawl into bed. Then there are moments like the Interstates and Tailgates tour when all you want to do is find a solo cup and let loose!

First Girl Scouts made my week - or at least I thought that they did with the announcement Thursday of not one, but two S'mores based cookies coming to their line in 2017. Now, Hostess really is being the hostess with the mostest (see what I did there?) and bringing deep fried twinkies to the freezer aisle!

If this isn't a reason to not allow strangers into your home, I don't know what is. All the research in the world probably couldn't have seen this coming but it turns out

This isn't Sponge Bob Square Pants, right? Like, this is real life? I feel like I need to check because this is the weirdest, yet coolest thing I think I've ever seen.
