Before Christian left WWE several years ago for a run with TNA, he had perhaps the sweetest theme song in quite some time, “Just Close Your Eyes” by a small indie band called Waterproof Blonde.

I first came across the Kings of Leon in 2003 or 2004 when we played several of their songs on WICB-FM in Ithaca (congrats on the college radio station of the year award!) Since then, they have fine-tuned their act. Marisa (my fiance) took me to see them at the famed 9:30 Club last year and [...]
I’m sure you are a lot like me in that you have “connected” with a vast array of people using social media. They tend to fall into the following categories: – Blast-from-the-past friends you haven’t seen since high school or earlier – Co-workers – Clients/business associates – Family – People you would like to know or [...]
I know I wrote about my beloved Baltimore Orioles yesterday, but I am definitely still buzzing about rookie outfielder Nolan Reimold’s game-winning walk-off 3-run homer in the 11th inning. Check it out: [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bff0nXtycE] Read more about the improbable comeback capped by the young outfielder from the two most entertaining baseball writers I know, Peter Schmuck [...]
