A few posts ago, I was pondering the popularity of the extremely cool acapella group Straight No Chaser and came across a website full of information, song samples, and discography. I also discovered that a new song-filled recording is about to drop. And quite remarkably this little group was organized on a college campus just […]

Ok, some people won’t find this funny, but I did. I think my daughter the Star Wars fan should see this one. Try this, it won’t embed. It is a 5 second film called “Mommy Knows Best” This was fun too…

Today would have been Carol’s 54th birthday. So many wonderful memories. I know the last show she saw me in was Idol Night at the Karaoke Place and the character I played which is the same as my blog title. In the show, my best friend sang my favorite inspirational song made famous by my

A while ago I mentioned becoming the national trainer for the photo job I do. Well, today I talked with the co-owner and the job is finally becoming a reality. As of this week I am the manager of training, or quality, or something like that. My new job will involve keeping a single store
As I’ve mentioned, I read the suburban Chicago newspaper online. Today a headline about the town where I grew up caught my eye – a kid filmed a short little youtube.com movie in Warrenville, Illinois. I couldn’t care less about the battle between fans of Star Wars and Star Trek, but I know there are

I think I will try something new and make an occasional post featuring some of the music I listen to. This will mostly feature Christian artists as it is pretty much what I listen to these days, though who knows? I might post something retro to my life. Of course what I post depends on
