One of the best shows on TV today in my opinion that is a “have to see” every week is the comedy called “Two and a Half Men” on Monday nights on CBS. I think it has the perfect blend of different types of humor to appeal to …

American Idol
Ok. I am a loyal fan of American Idol. But this year, 2008, I am noticing that there are several folks that seem planted in the competition. They have had previous recording history before and there is more than one. Like Carly Smithson from Ireland. They are making such …

Dodge County Historical Society Museum
I’ve been to a few historical society museums in the past several years and found most to be boring and incomplete. But, the one here in my home town of Beaver Dam actually isn’t half bad.

Calgary Zoo
In my experience, zoos have a difficult task to combine large, natural environment habitats for their animals, and well-planned and organized exhibits for the zoo visitors. The Calgary Zoo, located right in the centre of downtown Calgary, manages to do both tasks well.
The prehistoric park and botanical garden are …

Club Karaoke Buffalo NY
Buffalo’s best karaoke night, by far, takes place on Thursday, Friday, Saturday, or Sunday at a dilapidated place called “Club Karaoke” - it’s pure genius. Pull up and you see a toilet just chilling outside the club where one might expect a flowerbox… walk in, and you’re greeted with …

Mibawa Band Live in Blantyre, Malawi
A cover band is what you could call them. Based in Blantyre Malawi, they virtually perform any and every song on the earth, and they do it well. Who would have thought that deep in the heart of Africa, one would hear R.Kelly’s “Gotham City’’ being performed in front …
