Colleen Paige is one of America’s top family and pet lifestyle experts and the founder of “National Dog Day” (Westminster’s favorite holiday.) This month she’s featured me as one of her “favorite people” in her Pet Home Magazine and the accompanying article is quite a trip down memory lane for me. Read it here. [...]
It took Scott Weaver more than 35 years to design this amazing kinetic structure entitled “Rolling Through the Bay.” It is made out of over 100,000 toothpicks and depicts San Francisco with balls roll through it. Watch. It’s a viral wow! Oh, and he either has the patience of Job or the worst [...]
I’ve been holed up writing writing writing to meet a book deadline and want nothing more than to be free, crawl outside and slither in the streets.

On days like this, my grandfather used to say it was so cold his teeth were chattering in the glass. Fortunately, world famous groundhog Punxsutawney Phil peaked out from his winter [...]
I’m escaping the bitter chill of New York City and heading to where the grass is greener, snow is whiter: Park City Utah for Sundance. I’ll be skiing and tweeting gossip, movies, and temperatures from there this week. SO, if you haven’t found me on Twitter… please do so, here. [...]

Legendary Tonight Show host Johnny Carson used to joke that there is really only one fruitcake in the world, it is just passed from family to family.
