Greetings from the Blob on the Blog

Not my favorite time of the year! Not a BIG fan of Valentine's Day or February for that matter. For some reason this is the time of the year, when I get stuck! Weather's too crappy to do anything outside, inside projects either haven't started or are not quite completed. I realize how much I ate during the holidays and how hard I'll have to work to get in shape by spring. Football is over, baseball hasn't started yet...It's like my life is in neutral. Thank God it's only a few weeks!!

There, I think I feel better, now I've got that off my chest!

Whew, what a busy weekend!

Hmmmm COLD Enuf for Ya?.....Damn, would someone please bump up the heat on the way by the thermostat.

Saturday night, Bonnie Diver (Metro Traffic/works with Ami Angel and friend of the Star Morning Show) invited me to COOK, that's right COOK for her 3rd Annual Recipe of Hope. Bonnie, a cancer survivor, has done some great work with her charity Hair Peace, (which assists local cancer patients in buying wigs). If you know anything about me you know I don't cook! So this was a real challenge for me. I contacted my Mom for her famous (in our house anyway) Mac N' Cheese. Viola, INSTANT home run, I walked away from Saturday night's benefit with nothing but CLEAN casserole dishes... Here's some BAD cameraphone photos of the event. Yes, that's KDKA's Ken Rice, my wife Lerse, and Zeke from the Y108 Morning Show in this photo.

Oh and this is KDKA's Keith Jones

Finally, it's Y108's Tracey Morgan...who made the most delicious chocolate chip cookies, I believe she includes a 'snickers bar' in da middle. Two maximum or you'll......DIE!

Thanks for the invite Bonnie, great time, and a great charity!!!!
Sunday night, Kate, Pete, Lerse and I were amoung the 15 hundred people who renewed their vows at the Carnagie History Museum in Oakland. The event should be logged into the Guiness Book of World Records as the largest of it's kind EVER. Mayor Luke administered the vows, What a Venue!!!!

Many more photos coming to this website...but here are our two fav geeks!

NICE!!!

Yes I'm Married!!!!

OK so this Re-Nu Your Vows thing we're doing at the Carnegie is HUGE!! Lerse has bought in hugely. She gets home last night.......from a bridal shop....with a $400.00 dress.....I mistakenly saw the price tag and went down hill emotionally from there. Luv her to death....BUT.....$400.00 for a ONE TIME WEAR! Oh, she'll need shoes, a purse, wrap and some other unforseen apparatus to add to the total. Not that I mind, but I'm trying to get my head right!

Oh and she kicked my ass at bowling again Saturday night....and she was rooting for the Giants in the SuperBowl (knowing I GREW up in BOSTON).... spent more $$ at the Meadows Sunday....she's drinking ALL my Vitamin Water,....





(oh and she has let me take 6 days in March to head to the Carribean to play golf with my buds)

GOD I LOVE THAT GIRL!!!

Hey, it's the weekend!!!

Lerse (my wife) is the 'social director' in our house and I must say she's been most kind to me so far this year. Keeping social occations to a minimal, see when you are amoung people all week, you need the weekend(sometimes)to....

.....errrrr.....decompress. Looks like this MIGHT be one of the decompression weekends. YEA!!!!!!

Really, don't care who wins the Super***** (you know the name is copywritten so that's why you hear stuff like 'The BIG Game') All my family is in New England so I guess if the Pats win the 'fam' will be happy.
Gonna try and start heading back to the movie theatre in the next few weeks. Only movie I've seen recently is 'No Country for Old Men'

Been curious about some of these movies;

Atonement

I like BOTH Keira Knightley and James McAvoy


Vince Vaughn's Wild West

It opens next week, a docu-comedy? We had John Caparula(from East Liverpool,OH) on air Friday...Looks hilarious!
Seen some recent movies you'd recommend, post a comment. i'd love to hear about it.

Have a GREAT weekend!
