3 weeks ago I love "Bad Lip Reading." This time they took on the hugely popular AMC show, "The Walking Dead." Which, if you didn't know, I blog a lot about. My favorite line is when Daryl says, "I didn't mean to mess up your potato basket." Haha, take a look.

It's been 77 years since the 804 foot long German Airship Hindenburg crashed and burned in Lakehurst, New Jersey on May 6, 1937. There were 97 passengers, 36 of them perished in the disaster and it marked the end of the use of rigid airships in commercial air transportation. It used hydrogen gas as fuel, but, according to History.com it was originally suppose to use helium gas. Here is real footage of the Hindenburg disaster.
3 weeks ago Local authorities and first responders were busy this weekend with an unusual amount of drug overdoses. At the time I am writing this, none have died, but it does give us the increased sense of awareness that something must be done.

4 weeks ago When you think of the gold standard of beer, you think of Germany. However, the craft beer craze here in America is teaching Germany a thing or two about variety.

4 weeks ago When I was younger before I had a family and responsibilities, I would go out and celebrate Cinco De Mayo till the wee hours of the morning. (It was easier to fit a siesta in back then). Now, I have to find other ways to enjoy the day. The whole family loves fajitas and with this recipe from Taste of Home it's an easy and quick meal. OLE'
4 weeks ago We've had a fairly decent weekend and now a couple of inches are expected tomorrow, UGH! I know, I know, it's expected to melt fast, but I want 80 and humid!!! With all this snow, I started to wonder if the extra moisture will mean more mosquitoes this summer, their eggs thrive in water. But, even if we do have lots of the little buggers, at least we aren't dealing with the BIG mosquitoes they have in Florida!
4 weeks ago Even though I'm a MN Vikings fan, I am a fan of Peyton Manning too. I just like his personality and he does some pretty funny commercials too! Peyton, quarterback for the Denver Broncos was recently at a fundraiser in Indianapolis and joined Luke Bryan on stage to cover a Johnny Cash classic "Folsom Prison Blues". I was surprised how low his voice range is and that he remembered the words!
4 weeks ago My wife and I are expecting another child and we are getting to the point where we need to decide whether or not we want to know if its a boy or girl. Everyone seems to have an opinion and the most commonly asked question is, "Are you going to find out?" Tough part is, my wife is deferring to me on this, and says the choice is all mine. What do I do?
