Over the weekend, we had our company holiday party. And right next door, WOOD-TV8 was having its holiday party! After Shaffee and I had pounded a few, we decided: Why not cross the hall over to new territory? We were especially surprised to see the TV folks had karaoke at their party!

You may or may not care, but last week I got married! The wedding went by way too fast. It felt like one minute I was standing in the church ready to prance down the aisle (to Tesla, "Love Song"), and the next minute I was prancing back down the aisle (to The Darkness, "I Believe In A Thing Called Love"). Time flew and I was at the reception rocking out and drinking heavily! Re

Last night Asking Alexandria played at the Orbit Room but before they headed over there they hung out with me in the studio! We kind of covered everything, from the bands first time in Grand Rapids, where lead singer Danny had a random hook up outside the Intersection, to talk of their new song "Death Of Me," and even some acoustics thrown in the mix! Check it out, and if you want to s

Last year I did the whole corpse bride thing so I probably shouldn't do a "bride" like costume again this year, BUT this year is different since in less then 4 weeks I will be getting married! So some of my best friends (bridesmaids) decided to go crazy in GR dressed as a dead bridal party! Check out the photos of our costumes this past weekend.

I decided to search for some kick ass halloween costumes. You may remember last year I was Corpse Bride and I went a bit above and beyond, which included hand dying my dress myself! So while I am scrounging the internet I found some costumes that were AWESOME. Some were kids and some were adults but either way they kick ass. Check out the gallery below, I even threw in a bonus 6th costume because

Sunday was the 10th annual Grand Rapids Marathon and Half Marathon. Along with thousands of other people from around Michigan and other surrounding states I laced up my running shoes and joined the madness! It was unusually cold for how it has been as of late and I wasn't exactly prepared. I am actually rarely prepared though so no surprise there! In order to understand how this race went down, I

It's true, I am getting married! Here is a shot of my fiance and I- I know we are ridiculously awesome ;) Reluctantly I invited all the guys from the morning show. I mean yea, they make fun of me a lot, and tease me incessantly but I still love em...

Over the weekend I was asked to dress up in my finest super hero apparel and emcee the costume contest at the first ever, Grand Rapids Comicon! Woa... little did I know that I am not the only person who adorns the geek cloth... Some of these people know how to bring it! The turn out at the comicon was so huge they had over 3000 people and turned away over 2000 due to being at capacity! Next ye

Hey guys! I am involved in a contest for radio dj's that could benefit all of us! If I win, I score a trip to Ireland, or Scotland all paid! Well how does that benefit you? Because I also score a trip to give away to our listeners! Click HERE and vote for me...

Here was a first for me! I modeled in a couture runway show at the Vanandel Institute. I normally go to the castings for fashion shows and I am always too short. I always figure though, mine as well try! This time was different though, I got called after the casting call and they wanted me to model...

Well here is something cool! At least it is to me... So a few months ago I did some freelance work with Fox 17 and Baker College. Baker has locations all over the place but their main campus is in Muskegon, Michigan. They wanted me to do a "Behind The Scenes" Look at Baker of some of the programs they have that people may not be aware of. I finally saw it and had that geeky moment of, &q

Check it out, wanna come visit me this weekend? Let's hang out and let's do it full on Jackie style in awesome kick ass costumes! I'll be judging the costume contest over at Grand Rapids Comic Con on Saturday! Here are a few details on this years con-
