I remember the day was the deepest blue sky I had ever seen. Living in Northern Michigan at the time, I always chalked it up to how close we were to water. It makes the sky that much bluer. I remember I was watching the Today Show. From around 9 o clock on.

Hey guys! I know that many of you, on a daily basis, think to yourself, "man, I wish I was ripped, but I really don't want to put the work in. I wish some weird Japanese company would make a weird silicone flesh vest to make it look like I have a six pack". Well, your prayers have been answered! All of that can be yours for a mere $250!

I've mentioned before that I find it really super gross when people announce their pregnancies on Facebook by posting pictures of positive pregnancy tests, but this is taking the gross-out factor to a whole new level. You can now buy positive pregnancy tests (you know, ones that have already been peed on by pregnant ladies) on Craigslist. I could barely even type that without gagging.

NOT Grand Rapids. I know, right? What the...Don't they know we won the Calder Cup? Actually the Sports Business Journal does a survey every two years ranking the top minor league sports towns in America. And the winner is close to Michigan. and another in the top 10 is too.

To say Two and a Half Men has Jumped the Shark is an insult to Ted McGinley. If The character actor who destroyed such classic TV shows as The Love Boat, Happy Days and Married...With Children showed up on TAAHM this year, someone at CBS should lose their job.

I watch alot of home improvement tv. HGTV, DIY Netowrk, PBS, etc. I like quite a few of those kind of shows. But I never really have been a fan of Bob Vila. I would watch This Old House repeats, but never really thought Vila was much of anything.

So Friday I made the trip to Detroit to try out for the daytime version of "Who Wants to be a Millionaire". As a self proclaimed "trivia nerd" I thought this would be perfect. I could ace the test and audition. For sure I'd be called to New York to win my million dollars!

A couple of nights ago I saw a commercial on late night TV for something I hadn't seen in a long time. A psychic reading phone number. Who calls anyone anymore anyway? All I could think was "Is this a reboot of the 'Psychic Friends Network' wih Dionne Warwick?" No, I think she is dead.

For years, how you tie your shoes and which salty snack you favor could tell researchers all about you. (If you double tie you are in introvert and if you like tortilla chips you are a spicy lover) Now, modern technology rears it's ugly head and gives new insight to our personality.

Looking for world domination? Remember the cartoon "Pinky and the Brain" from Animaniacs? The Brain was a mouse ripoff of Orson Wells. Short, chunky with jowls for days. Pinky was his bumbling sidekick who always asked "What do you want to do tonight Brain?" And the Brain would reply "The same thing we do every night, Pinky - try to take over the World!"

Chicago has held a special pull for the Rolling Stones from before the group even existed. Mick Jagger was famously carrying albums from Chicago-based Chess Records when he ran into his childhood pal Keith Richards at the Dartford railway station in 1960...

And it includes Egg McMuffins! Thanks to chains like Jack in the Box (which we dont have here but should) and Steak and Shake, McDonald's has released their new "Late Night Menu" I saw an ad for it on the Tigers game Monday afternoon.
