Busy, busy, busy! If you’re looking for something…
Read MoreAdult problems no one prepared you for.
Adulting can be difficult. Paying bills, working, not sleeping enough, working, working, working…. That’s not to say there isn’t some enjoyable aspects of being a grown-up, but a lot of times, it can be unrelenting and difficult. I feel lucky to have had both “Shop class” and “Home EC” when I was in junior high.…
Read MoreSummer Party Tip – Keeping cool without AC!
I don’t know how people survive without air conditioning. Some people even enjoy the heat. Blech. I keep our house at 64° year-round. I do NOT like to be hot, sweaty, and uncomfortable.

Read MoreSummer Party Tip – Advice from me!
Every year(except for last year), the wife & I host a rather large gathering at our house. We call it the “Backyard BBQ” and it started almost 15 years ago when we were still renting an apartment. The first year, it was just a few friends in our backyard, have a few beers and eating…
Read MoreCover songs that MIGHT be be better than the original version.
I recently saw a list of cover songs that MIGHT be better than the original versions, and they somehow thought that the White Stripes version of “Jolene” was better than the original by Dolly Parton. Yeah. This was basically my reaction to reading that: Now, I’m not a fan of country, but that’s a bit…

Back in 2014, before he was the Mayor of La Crosse, Mitch Reynolds was still a news guy at WIZM AM. And he was filling in for Shaw one morning when Brian let him know about a unique male modeling opportunity.
Read MoreThe Best of the Morning Sickness – The one with a Magic Eraser on your teeth.
This week, we had not one, but TWO stories about teeth. The first one was a creepy way to remember a loved one, the other story was another example of the stupidity in this world. We also celebrated “National French Fry Day” by asking what’s your favorite kinda fry? Plus, a story about a mom…
