public service announcement

A. Sky wonders will not be seen tonight.
instead, welcome a word from our sponsors...

tired of blending in with the crowd?  try the one and only you!  when no one else's style will do.  besides, it's better than crack.  

tune in next thursday, 8/7 Central as we ponder the attack of the LBD.

spring holiday: part I

this month, over a million (i'm guessing) spring breakers will trek to miami,
and what's better, i'll be one of them.
so what would the savvy spring breaker pack?
what are items that would be sure to help with transitions from beach crawling
-to- ocean front lunches
-to- sundays at the huge outdoor flea market
-to- sightseeing
-to- hot latin nightlife?

because i and every major airline (with the exception of southwest)
agrees that less luggage is better
(and less expensive),
i advise one checked bag and one carry on.
as a space saver, take unique, low maintenance items that can be mixed and matched.
above all, enjoy!

go...wait, who's playing?

word on the street is,
we have just begun march madness.
for those of you who don't know,
march madness is a term used to refer to the official onset
of tons o' televised basketball games.
aka:
an excuse for guys to throw balls around and for more guys to watch them do it.
so,
what are you going to wear to show sports support without donning a jersey?
hmmmm.
anything!
a nice way to not elicit angry stares from die hard fans is to sport
(no pun intended)
team colors and add personal touches.
this is what i might do.
or just watch a Law & Order marathon.
