Prime Event Center of Bay City
Like to dance? Love live music? Want to drink and have fun but not bankrupt yourself? Then go to the Prime event Center of Bay City. This place is rocking, for young adults to baby boomers.

2010 American Hero Music Festival
I had a lot of plans around the house this past Saturday. I wanted to get the lawn mowed. And, I wanted to get the garden cleaned up before winter. Oh, and if there was time, I was going to help my wife with the cleaning that has been …
SeaWorld Orlando
The SeaWorld park in Orlando, Florida is a great place to take the family. SeaWorld offers animal exhibits, rides, shows, animal-interactions, tours, camps, and much more.
One of the great things about this park is that you gain so much educational knowledge on sea animals. I liked that each person …
Pursuit of Happyness
This wasn’t Will Smith’s best performance, certainly not compared to the dramatic fireworks of say, Fresh Prince of Belair. That’s unfair. The movie wasn’t terrible, in fact, it wasn’t even bad. The hype before the movie, the promotion, the talk shows, all led you to believe that this might …
Fat cat bar and grill in Springfield MA
The Fat Cat bar and Grill in Springfield is a pretty cool place too just go and enjoy some good music and a cool place to just hangout on a weekend night, especially a Sunday night.
One of the few things I did not like about the Fat Cat …
Michigan Renaissance Festival
I don’t know many people in my life who aren’t at least mildly interested in the idea of a renaissance festival. There’s something highly addictive about the idea of dressing up in renaissance and medieval clothing and gallavanting around with bagpipers playing, and eating a giant turkey leg while …
Canada’s Wonderland Theme Park
Canada’s Wonderland is a huge Theme park, located in Vaughan, Ontario, 30kms north of downtown Toronto. It’s considered to be one of North America’s top theme parks with more than 200 attractions.

The 2009 Oscars - the memorial retrospective
When I watch one of the major event shows for the entertainment industry, I always look for their tribute to the stars who have passed during the previous year. It’s often touching, and sometimes it’s frustrating by who they choose to include or exclude, but it’s a much …
South fork Ranch
While we were so close to Dallas we took a tour of the South fork Ranch, that was the ranch that was featured on the Dallas series for many, many years. Our little group left Arlington one after noon and drove the forty five minutes up the road …
Miss Horrorfest 2007 Contest
I had the opportunity to catch several clips of the reality show trailing the 2007 Miss HorrorFest competition. First of all, I didn’t even realize that there was such a thing. But in this world where reality shows rule, I am not surprised. Anyway, the …
Drink Houston club
I am constantly hearing advertisements for Drink Houston on the radio. All of the Top 40 radio stations are always making a big deal about the partying that happens at Drink Houston and until last weekend, I had never been. For one, it is almost located outside of Houston …
Jurong Bird Park Singapore
This tourist attraction was one of my most anticipated itinerary. The location was remote and it was in the highlands of Singapore.
The place was so serene and literally green. The admission fee was okay and I did not think it was expensive at all. I liked the interiors of …
Funranch Pasig City
When we went to the Funranch, I really wished we brought our son along with us. (He is too young to travel) This place is really designed with kids in mind. The whole place is bright and cheerful which would appeal to children from …
Caveau de La Huchette Paris France
I have been to Paris on two different occasions a couple of years ago. On the first trip I did all the typical tourist things; Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame and of course The Louvre. All of which are excellent and I highly recommend. Word of advice; give yourself …
Soldier Hollow Snow Tubing
My husband and I were in Midway for our anniversary and decided to have some fun while we were there. We decided on snow tubing because it was very inexpensive and seemed like a lot of fun. We were surprised that when we got there, we were told we …

Sleuths Mystery Dinner show
My boyfriend and I went on a vacation in Florida a couple of months ago. We went to Disney and several of the other usual attractions, but we also discovered this really fun little dinner theater on International Drive. It’s called Sleuths. We saw their brochure …
World Center for Birds of Prey
My family and I recently visited the World Center for Birds of Prey, located in Boise, Idaho. Because we had our 3 youngest children with us, ranging in age from 2 to 9, I wanted to make sure this attraction was going to be worth the while before …
Cinemark 16 Dollar Movies
Living in San Antonio for only a short time I wanted to find things to occupy my time. There was a movie theater down the street and I went to waste some time. I’ve always enjoyed dollar movies in other places so the Cinemark 16 dollar movies seemed to …
Nightown in Destin, Fl
I’ve been to Nightown in Destin several times.
Usually they ask you to pay $20 and you can drink all night.
It’s pretty cool for people who drink a lot, not really comfortable for people who drink a glass of water for the whole night.
I don’t really like that anymore. …
Dimsum Festival Toronto
Dimsum festival is a festival that happened in downtown Toronto a few weeks ago and it is kind of similar to food festivals like taste of Danforth except that it is a little smaller. However, the food is just as great. This time however, it is emphasized on Chinese …

Michael C. Carlos Museum
This museum is spectacular. Delightfully anachronistic and mind-numbingly boring, the Carlos Museum stole my heart. I’m not sure why, but I simply love it there… most of the exhibits (the Ancient Americas in particular) are really fairly bad, as they just contain some old pottery (cool, if you are …
Silent Hill Origins
Silent Hill Origins for the PlayStation Portable is quite a fun game. Not only are the atmospheres and clips quite eerie but the general games leaves the player with a sense of despair. Unfortunately there in no puzzle difficulty setting so the games is pretty easy in itself. The …
WrestleMania XXIV
The SuperBowl of Sports Entertainment labeled as WRESTLEMANIA delivered what’s expected of it this year. This annual mecca of wrestling stayed true to its name by creating a frenzy and delivering one of the best shows ever seen on pay-per-view. Held at the Citrus Bowl, …
Steambath
Steambath is a quirky play presented by the Broadway Theater Archive. Someone gave this to me recently to review. The funny thing was that as soon as I looked at the DVD, I thought, “I’ve seen this. I’m sure of it.” I’m guessing it must …
Netherworld Haunted House (Atlanta, GA)
I have to admit that while I am a huge fan of Halloween, I have not really been a fan of haunted houses. I will say that I have a fascination with haunted houses that is, the ones created with actors and props and the whole nine. …
Disney On Ice: World Of Fantasy
Last Saturday, my husband and I watched Disney On Ice. It all started when I saw the advertisement on television. Since I have always been a fan of Disney stuff-shows, merchandise, etc, I checked out ticketmaster.com to see how much the tickets are. The cheapest is $15.
The day …
Dodge County Fair
For some people, the end of summer is Labor Day weekend. For me, its the Dodge County Fair in Beaver Dam, WI.
The great thing, for me, about the Dodge County Fair is its one of the very few family-oriented events around this area in that there is something for …
The Family Man- Collectors Edition DVD
If there is one movie that I will never get tired of watching it over and over again, it’s The Family Man. I enjoyed owning the Collector’s Edition DVD of this movie that stars two of my favorites- Nicolas Cage and Tea Leoni. It is such a sweet combination of …
Circus World Baraboo, WI
I took my daughter to Circus World in Baraboo, WI a couple of days ago as a late birthday present for her. At the time, I figured it would be something that would be fun for her but wasn’t really looking forward to it myself. This is because I …
Song of the Sea, Sentosa Island, Singapore
If you go to Singapore, do not miss to visit Sentosa Island. There are several ways to go there, but the fastest (and also the cheapest) is to use monorail from Harbourfront. There are many attractions in Sentosa, many of them are not very special as they can also …
Hannah House in Indianapolis Indiana
Beng a ghost hunter I am always on the lookout for local places with haunted pasts. Hannah House had been high on my list for a while so finally one Saturday in March of 2010, I reserved 4 spots on one of their overnight haunts. For $50.00 …

I was so excited when I heard Chris Rock was coming to New Zealand and I booked our tickets in advance, which proved to be good as they sold out in a day.
We showed up and the applause was deafening. I loved the fact the audience was excited, …
A Day in the Park Arts & Craft Show
I wasn’t planning on attending this year’s A Day in the Park Arts & Craft Show at Swan Park yesterday. Our baby is due on Tuesday and my wife would never be able to walk that. Since she is the person who enjoys things like that, I felt bad …
The Ambassaor Night Club in St.Louis Mo
The funniest thing happened to me and my wife this summer. We were invited to visit this night club located in St.Louis. I had heard of it before because I am from St.Louis. So night clubs and hot spots are my thing. I don’t mind going to different places. …
Telus World of Science Calgary
The Science Center in Calgary is located downtown and has many activities for kids (and grown-ups) of all ages. I particularly like the WOW town area that is meant for kids under the age of ten. My kids love the water play area where they are sure …
Disney on Ice Presents a Disneyland Adventure

PlayDate ATL Halloween 2008 party
I went this year to the PlayDate that takes place once a month in Atlanta. I had never been before, and chose this particular night because I love dressing up for Halloween. Anyway, I was pleasantly surprised by the number of people who indeed felt the …
Formula One: 2009 Grand Prix of Monaco
The 2009 Grand Prix of Monaco was held on a beautiful Sunday. I just wish the race could be more exciting. Normally, the man on the pole wins this race because there is only one or two places that drivers usually pass. If that holds true, …

Butterfly Park and Insect Kingdom in Sentosa, Singapore
The reason why i wanted to come here is because i wanted to overcome my fears of butterflies. Yes, i’m scared of those butterflies tho’ i find them beautiful and colorful but still i’m afraid of them. Probably because of that belief when i was young, that butterflies will …
Zouk Night Club Singapore
Zouk is a really popular place in Singapore. All night-clubers know this place and they would kill to enter this place at Saturday night. Literally.
The first time and maybe it would be the last time I went there was a big mistake. I went there on Saturday night …
Pirate’s Dinner Adventure
I am usually not a huge fan of dinner theatre, but while traveling in Kissimmee, Florida, I attended a great interactive dinner show that I greatly enjoyed. My friends had made the reservations ahead of time, so we got to the theatre in Orlando, and we were seated and …
