One of the groovy things about having worked in radio for a long time is that I’m well versed in many genres of music. I also attended lots of concerts. One of the classic artists we saw was The Who. It was a hot summer night in North Carolina, there was no shade in the stadium, but the concert was loud, fun and unforgettable. The Who is on tour now and we’re giving away a pair of tickets to see them at their performance at Atlantic City Boardwalk Hall on February 22. Continue reading Win a pair of tickets to The Who 2/22 at Atlantic City Boardwalk Hall
I’ve been reading Hulk for a couple of years now. At first he was the regular green Hulk, then Thunderbolt Ross (Red Hulk) and now Red She-Hulk. The good part, from a story telling perspective is that all of them have taken place in the same book.

Continue reading Two fabulous online communities for parents and pet owners
The other day More Mojo was crawling his 16 month old self up the stairs. I was dutifully behind him making sure that he didn’t reverse course. When we got to the top I grabbed him and headed down when I saw 3 YO Mojo had taken out his crayons and was coloring the hardwood floors. Nooooo, I yelled in my best slow motion voice, while running down the stairs carrying a crawler. Continue reading How to remove crayons from wooden surfaces
We saw Skyfall when it was it theaters, great movie if you haven’t seen it. The theater was packed and seating was limited. In front of our seats was a young couple with a 3 month old in their baby carrier. The specter of a crying newborn was almost as scary as Javier Bardem’s performance was creepy. Continue reading 6 tips on taking small children to a movie theater
I’ve heard that cooking with beer can be a tasty sauté, but I never have done it until this week. My thought was that if I cook with beer and don’t like it, then it’s a waste of beer. Factor in that it would be a potential waste of a good beer and that’s a bad thing indeed. Continue reading Super Bowl snacks-cooking with Newcastle Brown Ale
