Friday’s Truths – Don’t be offensive, or you’ll be offended.
Another work week has come and gone…we lumber on to the weekend. Well, you may skip, leap, or frolic on to the weekend. I shall continue to lumber. What did I learn as I’ve moved through another Friday? If your boss is losing sleep over budgets, costs, and P&L…trust me,…

DWTS – Elimination Round for Week 6 (Spoilers!)
We’re back for another elimination night! So, which couple will be going home tonight? I think, quite unfortunately, that it’s going to be Gladys/Tristan. I don’t want to see them go. But they are at the bottom of the leader board and I can’t see them NOT being in the…

Motown week separates the pack…a little bit.
Ladies and Gentlemen, it is Motown Week on Dancing With the Stars! The show opens with Smokey Robinson, Martha Reeves, and the Temptations serenading us. Lovely medley of songs. This is going to be a great night for music, that’s for sure! The stars are introduced and enter the stage…what a…

I am super-dee-duper-dee excited!!
If you’ve been keeping up at all with my Dancing With The Stars recaps, you’ve probably figured out my new obsession with all things Katherine Jenkins. Mostly, I’ve fallen completely in love with her music. I’ve worn out pretty much every youtube video I could find. (Yes, I know it’s…

Things are heating up in the ballroom! Latin Week proved interesting.
Be sure to check out my previous post that provides a bit of analysis and a bit of prediction for Latin Week. Of course we begin the show with Tom providing witty comments about the elimination show the previous week. This time there’s the added “perk” of hearing him butcher…

DWTS – What can we expect from “Latin Week”? Or should we even bother to guess?
It’s week 5 of Dancing With the Stars. It’s “Latin Week” – so that means everyone will dance either the Salsa, the Samba, or the Argentine Tango! The competition is really heating up – as if it hasn’t been hot since week one! But last week’s elimination show had everyone rattled – the…

Friday’s Truths – Who does the watching?
We are now moving very steadily into the heart of Spring in the Northern Hemisphere. The signs are evident: The leaves are returning to the trees. The birds and the squirrels are coming out of hiding and demanding their treats. The flowers are poking up. The front lawn gets mowed…

DWTS – Elimination Round for Week 4 (Spoilers!!)
KISS is back to open the results show, keeping Rock Week going strong. It’s nice to see that KISS hasn’t lost it. I mean, I was never a huge fan – I didn’t own their albums – but I respect their longevity. Looks like we’re going right into the eliminations. …
Got any book recommendations?
