Here are some photos I just got from a tour of our station Mike Clark gave to a group from North Huntingdon.
The tour was donated as an auction item to Queen of Angels Catholic School’s annual dinner/auction held April 25th. This year they raised a record $45,000 at the event.
Mike Clark agreed to [...]
Here’s the book I just finished reading. It’s about famous architect Frank Lloyd Wright who designed the amazing Fallingwater which is about an hour from Pittsburgh. It’s called Loving Frank and it’s a debut novel for Nancy Horan.
The book is part fiction, part fact… as Noran pieces together a very public affair Wright had with [...]
OK. Here is a sequence of shots I took from Mom’s kitchen window of the squirrels trying to get a sip of sugar water from the hummingbird feeders…. after munching on that corn Zach threw down for them.
I’m trying to organize some recent pictures in my computer… and thought I’d share a few. Here’s Zach at my parents’ house… feeding the squirrels. He’s pulling kernels off the cob.
See the shirt he’s wearing? You already know he’s a Sidney Crosby fan… even in the off-season ; ) It was the only thing he wanted [...]
Wendy’s boys are beautiful. They’re still so tiny and so precious. Mike Clark, Producer Maria Dravecky and Executive Producer Tim Wells and I all went over today. We had a great time. Bobby and Chris were so quiet and sweet and I didn’t want to leave them to come to [...]
Later today, I’m posting photos from my trip to see The Jersey Boys. Awesome show. Also, Mike Clark and I are going to visit Wendy today and see her new baby boys! Can’t wait! I’ll let you know how that goes.
In the meantime, I thought I’d share this email I just [...]
I have a lot to tell you about a Broadway show coming here! I spent the weekend in Cleveland and saw Jersey Boys.
It is fantastic! I can see why it won a Tony award for Best Musical.
You need to go ahead and buy a ticket now for the January show. [...]

I’m not sure what prompted this…. but I finally decided to take a golf lesson. I have no idea why.
I grew up with my dad and brothers playing constantly. Actually my dad is rather awesome. But I’ve never picked up a club before other than to play putt-putt. But my [...]
We recently had GREAT seats in the Home Plate Club at PNC Park. Thanks to my friend who gave them to us when he couldn’t go to the game.
IT WAS AWESOME.
The kids loved being so close to all the action…. and they loved the waitress who spoiled us by coming back often to see [...]
Did you hear the Rat Pack is coming to Pittsburgh?
Click here to watch a preview of the show coming to Heinz Hall July 22 – 27.
Thanks to everyone who sent in messages about Shane the soldier. I forwarded them to him and hopefully it will help him realize that people care. If I hear from him again, I’ll post it right away.
Also, I’m anchoring the 5:00 and the 11:00 for Wendy while she’s on maternity leave…. so these posts [...]
For those of you who’ve been reading for a while, you know Shane the soldier. I met him in an airport saying goodbye to his fiancee as he was heading off to Iraq.
He just emailed a sad letter describing their breakup. Long distance relationships are tough. He wanted me to post the entire email, [...]
The King of Kennywood Day signed autographs beside me for a while on WTAE day at the park.
Doesn’t Joe look great? I am reminded of my very first Kennywood Day. After only working here for about six months, I arrived to our autograph booth. As the shift changed… I took the place of [...]
If you’re ever on Ellsworth in Shadyside…. take a second to go in the Mendelson art gallery. My friend, Shawn Quinlan’s fabric art is on display. I stood on a chair to take this picture. The gallery owner, Steve Mendelson, was so worried I’d fall. I imagined what kind of picture *that* would [...]
Meet T.J.
He’s a great WTAE photographer. But you can see by this photo… how his ability might be a bit limited now.
Somehow he broke his wrist. But check out his cool cast! He said they offer casts in all different colors these days.. but he chose white and then had Action News Reporter Marcie Cipriani’s [...]
