You may have heard about the controversy surrounding this little give-away from the Pirates:
The bobblehead given out at the weekend game is of Tom Gorzelanny. He has his middle finger outside of his glove (if you have one of these you know it is indeed his middle finger and not his [...]
Here is just a portion of the latest email by Shane the soldier for me to share with you. For those of you just started reading this blog, I was covering Barack Obama in Indiana and met Shane and his fiance in the airport. They were saying goodbye to each other as Shane was [...]
(*** First a quick note about Shane the soldier headed to Iraq. He appreciates all of your prayers and thoughts. I forwarded him your emails of support… so keep them coming. He started out on his journey last night and I’ll post his updates here soon.)
We headed out to Heinz Field this weekend [...]
I was honored again this year to help out with a wonderful cause.
Casa is a group that works with children. It stands for Court Appointed Special Advocate and these people help children through the court system. While the adults get help in the system…. it would be easy for their children [...]
You helped me find him. I knew you would.
Many of you wrote and gave me wonderful suggestions on various ways to track him down…. but it all came to to me leaving off a “.” out of the email address. So many of you have loved ones serving overseas and spotted right away what I [...]
Here are some photos from our trip to Evansville, Indiana to cover Barack Obama.
Here I am with two great photographers: Gary (on the left) and Andy. They worked non-stop.
(** special note: when I wear this red jacket, Jon Burton always calls me Captain Kangaroo**)
First, I want you to know that we didn’t [...]
I know I’ve asked those of you who read my blog for a lot of advice… but this one is really important to me. I need help finding this soldier.
An army reservist gave me his email so I could send him an important photo but the email came back to me. [...]
A friend just send me this link to a video that is breathtaking… as in freaks me out! It’s called El Caminito del Rey (The King’s pathway). It’s a walkway along a narrow gorge in El Chorro in Spain. It has fallen apart and is now closed to hikers… but brave (i.e.: crazy) people still [...]
Zach had a cool idea on how to celebrate his 10th birthday this year. He wanted to go see the Peterson Event Center at Pitt. He loves basketball and since we were planning what to do in the middle of March madness…. well, it seemed logical. ( Mom wanted him to pick a couple of [...]
I’m not sure how it happened… but somehow, my baby boy turned 10 today.
Zach is a great kid and if you read this blog, you already know how much fun I have with him and my daughter Ally. I’m so blessed to be his Mom!
What a busy night! Our entire crew worked late last night for our Democratic Debate special, we hosted a watch party (great food and cookies) in one of our studios with about 50 guests, Mike Clark reported from Washington D.C. on the Pope’s birthday, Stephen’s forecast for the next few days looks [...]
Isn’t it awesome that Mike Clark is down in Washington, D.C. covering the Pope’s first visit to America as pontiff?
Seeing Mike in front of the Washington Monument on the news last night reminded me of my last trip to D.C. and I pulled up these pictures I thought you’d enjoy. Mike will have [...]
Tonight, I’m working the late shift along with my fantastic friend Shannon Perrine. Here’s another reason I think Shannon rocks. Tonight she went out on a dinner run for the whole newsroom and even made an extra stop at Starbucks.. since I’m not used to the late news.
Also, thanks to everyone who wrote [...]
Help.
Fruit flies have invaded my home.
Who knows why. I don’t have fruit or any food out on my counter.
They’ve been annoying me for a week and a half. I thought they’d just disappear since they are supposed to have a short life.
But these are the Methuselahs of fruit flies.
