Election Day is less than a month away, have you decided who you're voting for? And more importantly, why you're voting for that person?

The US Senate race here in Kentucky is one of the most watched and

Fellow children of the 90's, prepare yourself for this excitement... Surge is back! Yep, the make you bounce off the walls and stay up all night, delicious coke is back! (I'm Southern, therefore every "cola" is called coke. If I wanted an actual Coke, I'd capitalize it... see what I did there?)

I heard Chad play it this morning and didn't realize we had it on our hard drive. But I'm so glad we do. Elvis Presley's live performance of "An American Trilogy" is as soul-penetrating as anything you'll ever hear.

Twenty-five years ago today, I was at the Malco getting ready to watch a movie that I'd been looking forward to for months. As it's opening day got closer, I got more excited...no thanks to Michael Keaton.

I couldn't count how many visits my family, friends, and I paid to Miller Lake when I was a kid. That was THE place to be in the summertime. The floating docks, sliding boards, paddle boats, concession stand (a fudgesicle was a MUST)...it was perfect.
