It's that time again (tick, tock, tick, tock) when we "spring forward" for daylight savings time!  Saturday night before you go to bed, move all the clocks ahead one hour so that you're not running behind all day Sunday.  Of course, there's bound to be at least one clock that you'll forget to change, which you'll notice in the morning and then panic over before you realize that you forgo

It's that time of the year again...the time when we all begin celebrating.  It's March Madness time, St. Patrick's Day is coming up, Mardi Gras is just around the corner and there are other festivities that typically pop up where drinking is part of the celebrating.

Jenny and I are always very cautious when it comes to eating leftovers or food if its "sell by" date has passed.  Why take the chance of getting sick, right?  Just the other day I discovered yogurt in the refrigerator that had "expired" according to the date on the box.  Even though the yogurt was "unsafe," I ate one anyway and found out that it was just fine.  So is

I like to drink a glass of wine every now and then, and I typically don't care if it's red, blush, white or whatever.  I only care about drinking a semi-sweet wine that I like.  After reading the latest information about red wine, however, I may begin making it my wine staple.  It seems there are many reasons to enjoy a glass of red wine every day.  That's just the news I wanted to hear!

I blogged about this a while back and now it's here.  Beginning Saturday, Hoosiers will be in a "permissive dialing" situation, a six-month period where you can still dial the seven-digit numbers you've been dialing, but you should begin dialing the ten-digit (area code + number) to get into the habit.  Forcing yourself to dial the ten-digit now will have you ready for the mandatory swit

Put the date in your smart phone calendar, write it on the refrigerator calendar and get ready for a day of dining out, Tuesday, March 4!  Go our for a meal (or two) at participating restaurants that will be donating a portion of their sales to fund therapy for tri-state kids and adults with disabilities at the Easter Seals Rehabilitation Center.

It's amazing how this particular day transformed itself into a day for lovers, since the name Valentine, although connected to three different historical saints and martyrdom, is also connected to a tragic event of spilled blood called, the Valentine's Day Massacre which occurred on the streets of Chicago involving the notorious gangster, Al Capone.

This winter's ice and snow affects anyone with kids in the household, plus adults who work in any of the school corporations.  Since both of my kids are still in public schools and Jenny teaches in one, we are affected by the snow days that will have to be made up.  Interestingly enough, one of the options being offered by the state is a situation I would propose every year to my students in regar

I talked to you about this while I was on the air Wednesday afternoon.  If you missed hearing me, this is a trap you don't want to be tempted to fall into.  It's the latest phone scam and it could easily follow you over the cellular network.  the "One Ring" scam is exactly as the name describes.  Someone you don't know from an area code you don't recognize will call once and hang up.  Wh

I like to eat bananas occasionally and I like them well enough, but I wouldn't say that I'm a banana lover.  If you are a banana lover, this news may greatly disturb you.  (It certainly is bad enough to make the monkeys go ape!)  There is currently a blight on bananas in Asia that has now been found in Mozambique (Africa) and Jordan (Middle East), and the concern is that it may reach Latin America
