It's been awhile. I know. Just wanted to share a sketch of Ewan McGregor on Craig Ferguson (it was on repeat last night, and I hadn't seen it the first time around). I love Craig Ferguson's show, by the way. He always cracks me up. Then, getting to see Mr. Ewan McGregor on the show was just an added bonus. After the interview and a commercial break, they came back to do a sketch that had me

So much has been going on lately that I don't know where to begin. Do you want the long or short of it? I'm opting for the short because I don't feel like typing too much tonight.In a nutshell, my job searching continues. I know what I want, but have yet to get it. Basically, I am looking for a teaching position at either the Elementary level (grades K-6) or in Middle School English (grades 7-9).

So that I don't have to hear Tom badgering me anymore, I've decided to post something. I don't really know what I will write about or anything, but it will be an update, nonetheless.Let's see...hmmm...Tom ate 4 slices of pizza last night before Jon finished 2.Tom needs to thread a string through the waistband of his sweatpants, pronto.Jon put on my scarf and then complained that it smelled "all

Last February, I posted a mini-review of a band I went to see, called Downtown Harvest. I was so excited when, in November, the band surfed onto my blog and left me a very nice comment on the post. (Check the comments link on the original post.) So, today, I am looking at DH's website, and realize that they put a link to my blog on their press page! Now I'm even more excited because, well, I

After 17 years, Montel is saying goodbye. Hopefully it doesn't have anything to do with his health (he was diagnosed with MS in 1999). I can't tell you the last time I watched his show, but I remember the days of coming home from high school and tuning in. I especially liked watching when Sylvia Browne was going to be on (even though throughout the more recent years, there has been much

This will be a short update because my wrist is hurting even worse today, which makes it hard to type. I was awake until almost 3 a.m. last night trying to get comfortable enough to sleep. I am one of those people that won't take meds for something unless absolutely necessary. However, I think some Advil may do me good and is worth a try.

It's not a major problem, though...just more of an inconvenience. As some of you know, I hurt my wrist last week on Thursday when I tripped going down my basement steps. Stupid slippery slippers.

Is anyone else looking forward to this show's return? I know I am. I was a big fan of the original. Erin and I used to watch it on Saturday mornings after, what else, "Saturday Morning Cartoons." That was when Saturday morning television was actually good. Aaah, yes, the good ol' days of Laser, Nitro, Turbo, Ice, and all the other gladiators. Well, I will be tuning in to see how this one compares

Nirvana's Unplugged in New York is finally getting released on DVD after almost 14 years.This performance was recorded for MTV in December 1993, just 4 months before Kurt Cobain's death. I've had the CD since it's release back in November 1994. Every time I've listened to it, though, I've gotten a very sad and eerie feeling, and I'm sure the DVD will do much the same thing. Nevertheless, I'm

No, I'm not talking about massive freak waves...I'm referring to one of the best bands you've never heard of. Well, maybe you have. If you are a Heroes-watcher, you may remember hearing their song, Eyes, in an episode last season. (You can hear the track on their website, here).I saw them in Philly last weekend with my friends, Patrick and Kendra, who also happen to be fans. We saw them at a

So, if you haven't seen this video yet, here's your chance. A model named Sarah Welch fell through a hole in the runway during Fashion Week. Apparently she was a former contestant on The Bachelor. Her name sounds familiar but I'm drawing a blank on remembering her on the show. Anyway, if you watch Heroes, you might recognize the guy who helps her up...yep, that's Jimmy Jean-Louis, The Haitian (

I want to share a great website my sister sent me (thanks, Kel). Xerox is sponsoring the "Let's Say Thanks" program. Basically, people can visit the site and view cards to personalize and send to our troops. All of the card designs were done by kids from across the country.

Apparently, my family and friends have caught on to the fact that I like to cook and bake. So every once in awhile I receive homemakerish type gifts. For example, for my last birthday, my sister Erin bought me an ice cream maker. This one, to be exact. This summer, I used to it to make a Vanilla Custard Ice Cream...it was delightful...so delightful, in fact, that my cousin told me that I had to

I was fortunate enough to be at the Phillies game yesterday as they beat the Washington Nationals...and, boy, was it exciting! As we watched the Phillies, the whole park had a collective eye on the scoreboard showing the Marlins/Mets score. Each time the Marlins' score increased or the Mets went out of another inning without scoring, the Phillies fans cheered. The energy was indescribable.

I hate job hunting. Just when something was looking promising, it turns out I still have to wait...I went on an interview yesterday for a position in the field of Education, although not teaching.

Much has changed since my last post. What the doctors initially thought to be an infection was actually a tumor. The mass they removed from her brain is an anaplastic meningioma. Anaplastic means it's malignant...and it's on the World Health Organization's Grade III stage of Cancer, with IV being the worst.Apparently, this type of aggressive meningioma is very rare in children.

Going into the surgery, they thought it was a cavernoma, however, during the removal, they realized it was not. Further tests of the mass indicated it was a dormant encapsulated infection causing

Yesterday morning, my sister and I had CPR/First Aid certification for our summer camp job, so we were up early. As we were getting ready, our mom had let our dog out. He, of course, was taking his good old time coming in, but my mom noticed that he seemed to be looking at something in the driveway. So, she went out on the porch to see what he was doing and saw him tiptoeing around and sniffing

There is a series on the Travel Channel that I like to watch sometimes (as long as I'm not alone or trying to go to sleep). It's called Most Haunted. The premise is that they have a team of people, made up of parapsychologists, mediums, historians, etc. go into a place reported as haunted. Usually the kinds of places they visit are ones that are still open to guests and visitors--like inns,

So, last night at work I was tutoring a 2nd grader in Math. We were doing word/story problems and we came upon one that talked about "rock music tapes." To this, my student replies, "Cool...rock music." I said, "Oh, so you like rock music?" He says, "Yeah, but I can't talk about my favorite band."Well this clearly piques my curiosity, so I question a little further, wondering what his favorite

Have you ever seen that Comcast commercial with the turtles named The Slowskies, where the male turtle says 'She's a Sudoku maniac' referring to the female? Yeah, well, they might as well be talking about me. I am addicted to Sudoku. Well, okay...not addicted in a bad way. I just like it a lot.I've always been more drawn to the logic-type puzzles...you know, the ones where you have to make

I still miss the days of WDRE (103.9). That's when I had to tape my favorite songs from the radio onto cassettes....I had various mix tapes in my collection. Here's a little tidbit for you too...Pearl Jam's "Alive" was the first (and last) song played on WDRE. You can hear the dramatic sign-off from "Bitterfest" here.Thank God for WMMR (93.3) and WXPN (88.5) -- which features "Y-Rock" for fans

Yes I've been missing in action and neglecting my blog. I've been so busy lately with work, interviews, and other things. I promise to have a longer update coming soon. Now I'm off to watch the rest of A.I....Melinda better not be voted off!!edit: Melinda went home :-( Blake and Jordin are in the finals....guess all the teeny-bopper girls voted for Blake, even though Melinda was much better.P.S.

In addition to being so crazily busy this week with freelance writing, I got the FLU. I got through most of the week without it...which is good because I had to tutor a few nights, an interview on Thursday morning, and a tight writing deadline. However, I went to work on Thursday afternoon not feeling quite right. That night when I came home I knew something was up...I was aching all over and

I am so excited for this movie which, by the way, opens this Friday, May 4th! Contributing to my excitement are the trailers I've seen, especially during Heroes on Monday nights. What a cowinkydink, huh? A Spider-Man trailer during Heroes?? Yes, I know...I'm sure it was very non-coincidental.The soundtrack looks great as well, including artists like Rogue Wave, Snow Patrol, The Killers, and

I got this from a friend, and apparently it's all over the 'net....but I am sharing because it's hilarious. This is yet another way to get from New York to Paris.

A new 11-part mini-series entitled Planet Earth begins this Sunday, March 25th on the Discovery Channel. It looks very interesting, so I have to remind myself to try to watch it each week. The website has a lot of features, including a "guide to the planet" and a "google earth tour."If you're a nerd like me, make sure you check it out!

So, I was in Fort Lauderdale visiting my Grandparents last week, enjoying the beautiful warm weather...I went from seeing this......to seeing this...It was quite depressing when I got home on Saturday (St. Patty's Day). We had to wait in a massive line in FL just to check in, and during our wait, we met a lady who was trying to get to Philly for a bar mitzvah. She told us that she had

I went to see J.G. in concert last night in Philly. One word to sum it up: AMAZING. He has an absolutely unbelievable voice. I've been a fan of his for a few years now. Those who know me might be surprised that I listen to him because, well, he doesn't fit into my usual taste of musical genres (rock, alternative, indie)...but, that really doesn't matter to me...I have a deep appreciation for

No, really...I am. Yesterday I was doing some "research" online (well, not real research...hence, the quotes)... actually, I was just looking for some ideas for Theme Days to bring to a meeting next week for my summer camp job. For the past 10 years that I've worked there, we've recycled many of the same Theme Day ideas and I was just looking for something new. Well, I came across a 2002

This weekend (Feb. 16th - 18th) is Penn State's annual 48-hour Dance Marathon, aka THON. The theme this year is Many Hearts, One Home. 2007 marks the 35th anniversary of THON. It is also the first year it is being held in the Bryce Jordan Center to accommodate the growing number of participants and families. For the last several years, it had been held in the smaller campus venue, Rec Hall.

The Doors were inducted into the Rock N' Roll Hall of Fame back in 1993. Eddie Vedder filled in for the late Jim Morrison at the induction ceremony, singing three songs (Roadhouse Blues, Break on Through, & Light My Fire) with the remaining band members. I happen to have the audio of this performance on an old Pearl Jam bootleg CD that I've had for more than 10 years now. At the time I first

I hate my TMJs (temporomandibular joints). Actually, I hate my left TMJ more than my right...and it definitely hates me.This hate/hate relationship started when I was in high school. The last day of school during my sophomore year, I woke up not able to open my jaw much past an inch. So basically I went to school that day feeling like a freak. My mom made me a peanut butter and jelly sandwich

It's not very often that you come across a local band that is easy to get into right away, especially the first time hearing them...many times, the band sounds a little rough. If they are just starting out on the scene, unfortunately they might be soon forgotten.However, that is definitely not true for the band, Downtown Harvest. I saw them last Friday night and they were actually really good.

I mentioned, back in November, that one of my favorite shows on tv right now is Dateline NBC's To Catch a Predator series. Finally, it is returning tonight at 8 p.m. ET with a new investigation from Long Beach, California. Over the next six weeks, they will also show investigations from Murphy, Texas and Flagler Beach, Florida. You can watch past episodes of the investigations on the series'

My comments on this interesting article.......To Spank or Not to Spank:Spanking is definitely based on Classical Conditioning, or Pavlovian Conditioning. In it's simplest form, the idea is that the child will associate the spanking with the bad behavior...they don't like the spanking...they don't wish to experience it in the future...so they remove the bad behavior. However, it is not as simple

Pride is a funny thing. We grow up hearing people tell us that we should be proud of ourselves for the things that we do and for what we achieve. However, pride isn't always about the good things...it definitely can have a negative connotation. You can have too much pride, where you indulge yourself, despite the feelings of others. And, really, who wants to be on the receiving end of that?

Pearl Jam + The Who = Happy Colleen...I've got some Pearl Jam-related news I must share. Browsing the popular fansite, The Sky I Scrape, today I discovered a link to a trailer for an upcoming Adam Sandler movie called "Reign Over Me."

Right now, Burger King happens to have my current favorite commercial-- the whining parents...."You totally lied!...You totally said we could get a Whopper!"Click here to see the commercial on Burger King's website...you need to click on the first reel, "Manipulation."

I was watching the Ellen DeGeneres Show today and she showed an old '70s commercial for Tab Diet Soda. I've never heard anything like it in my life...honestly, it looks and sounds like a fake commercial skit they'd do on SNL...it is really that bad ("When you can't be with him, be in his mind...be a mindsticker.").I had to listen to this again so I of course found it quite easily on YouTube.

If you haven't yet seen this series of reports on Dateline NBC, you must. I've been enthralled with it this Fall. The series is nothing less than shocking, disturbing, and maddening, but it's also not something one can easily turn away from. Watching it, you will see that just about anyone could be an internet predator...by that, I mean your neighbors or people you see around town every day...

Last night I was watching Jimmy Kimmel (who, by the way, cracks me up) and caught a video segment of Jimmy's Cousin Sal, handing out candy to neighborhood kids.

Well, I got asked to work a Hayride & Bonfire Event tomorrow night (Friday) that a local township (which I work for in the summer) is running. My summer boss, Mike, who works for the township year-round, needs someone to fill in as the Witch, and well, he thought of me. Now that I am sitting here pondering this, why did he think

Ahhh, yes, it's...FRIDAY THE 13THWhy do people go crazy on this day?...some will not fly or do any travel on Friday the 13th. In fact, I'm sure there are some that won't even leave their homes. Well, the reason for this behavior is very much rooted in superstitions. I'll admit I have a few superstitions, but I don't think any are unreasonable. Growing up, I was told these superstitions as

I've been working on a new blog site for the BloggerBeta. Eventually this site will be upgraded as well. My new site is called Just Me From Here. It's function is not to replace this site. Say Anything will remain open, more as a public journal...more for updates on what I'm doing, news and headlines, interesting articles, song lyrics, books I'm reading, etc...basically, my random

I've never been much of a fan of soap operas. My mom, however, tapes her shows every day and watches them religiously every night. I just could never get into them...well, not for very long anyway. Yes, I know it's mindless entertainment, but it's just a bit too cheese for me. So, the other day I was flipping channels and caught a glimpse of subtitles across the bottom of the screen. I figured

I'm sure many of you have heard of the Old Farmer's Almanac. Every year, the big deal is their supposed forecast of the kind of winter we will have (temperature- and precipitation-wise). Just last week, I heard on the radio that this year's forecast said a bad winter for most of the U.S. and a lot of snow for the locations that usually see that type of precip. I've always taken their forecast

It’s Movie Season!...well, for me, anyway. I consider Fall & Winter to be a great time for movies. Maybe it’s the colder weather or shorter amount of daylight, but in any event, it’s something I look forward to every year. Don’t get me wrong, I get excited by the Summer blockbusters too, but more and more it seems I’ve been overall disappointed by the Summer releases lately. Hopefully,

I went to Penn State with friends this past weekend. We had a lot of fun, although our beloved Lions lost against Notre Dame. Also, the weather was beautiful, aside from a quick shower late Saturday afternoon.You can view all my pictures at Yahoo Photos.

Aren't we getting just a little too politically-correct?...Or is it just oversensitivity?Emmy Plane Crash Skit Called InsensitiveWhile I feel terrible for the people who lost family members in the Kentucky plane crash, the skit was simply a spoof on the TV show LOST. The skit, by the way, didn't even show a plane crash. I truly believe that for someone's comment or action (or in this case,

You may remember me talking about the lower back pain I've been having. I posted about it a few times in February; I talked about when it started and the testing I went through. I recently went back to see my Primary Care Physician because I'm still having stabbing pains on the lower left side of my back, as well as weakness and pins & needles in my left foot. So, he referred me to an

So, yesterday, my parents, as well as my two sets of aunts and uncles, and my grandparents had a wedding to go to. The children/grandchildren (meaning my sisters, cousins, and I) were not invited, so Kelli and I offered to take care of the younger ones for the afternoon and night. We had decided to take our cousins Jimmy & Gina to see a movie, but Jimmy ended up ditching us because a friend

Yeah, so I have already finished Suzanne's Diary For Nicholas. It was a very quick read...three days and done. Tears were shed, but I cannot say whether they were happy tears or sad tears (Dana may be reading this...I wouldn't want to spoil it for her!) Dane--hope you're reading this book...you would definitely like it!Oh well, on to the next book...hmmm...what will it be??

So, I just finished reading the book Everyone Worth Knowing by Lauren Weisberger; it was a book I chose to read after hearing Alicia rave about it. I loved it, by the way...thanks for the suggestion, Aleesh.Recently, my book club has started up again and we are reading Suzanne's Diary For Nicholas by James Patterson, as you can see listed in my sidebar.

I slept in today for the first Monday since starting my summer camp job back in June and it felt good. No, I didn't play hooky today; camp is over for the summer. We all said our goodbyes on Friday. Now, onto the next phase of my life...decision-making time.Well, I have already decided I will not be a Sub for another year...As a teacher, I want my own space. I don't want to be a guest anymore

Last night I had an experience like no other. This is one of those water cooler stories. The camp that I work for in the summer puts on a one-night carnival every year; this summer's was last night. Every summer, when there is a threat of bad weather, we usually are prepared to hold the carnival the following night. When bad weather has come in past years, it has usually always come during

I still have many Disney pics to put online, but here are a few other recent ones in the meantime. The following two are from a night out in Philly at Fado's Irish Pub: It was *almost* like a high school dance...girls at one table,guys at the other...except for Adele and Nancy messing it all up! Also, you can see pictures from my friend Lauren's wedding here.Disney pics coming soon!

It's been quite a while since my last post...I've been sooooo busy with work that I haven't had a chance to do any updates here. Let me just prepare you, this will not be anything special either!! Just wanted to say that I just got back from Disney World this week. I should have some pictures up pretty soon, when I get the chance! I had a really great time, but honestly it was just too hot!

My sister, Kelli, graduated from high school this past Friday. It was a very nice ceremony and a beautiful day. Something very funny happened when one student's name was called out to receive his diploma...someone in his family blew an air horn in the church! Fortunately, it wasn't a mass, just a ceremony, so most people laughed.Anyway, below are just a few of the pics taken after the

I've added new pictures online from Pearl Jam's June 3rd concert in East Rutherford, NJ. I went to this concert with my friend Patrick...we had an awesome view from our floor seats! One of the funniest things we saw that night was crazed fans running from one merch stand to the next, looking for posters that were selling out all too quickly. We decided not to join the poster people, though...we

I just got back today from visiting my sister, Erin, who lives outside Baltimore, Maryland. She's been bugging me for quite some time to come down and stay for a few days, so we finally made it work for the both of us. While I was there, I went to the community college where she works as an Athletic Trainer. She even put me to work on the computer for a little bit...well, actually, I

Universal signs are probably the ultimate form of nonverbal communication. There are many signs that are recognizable across the world, each meaning something specific.Of course, there's the Handicapped sign...The No Smoking sign...The sign for Parking...The sign for Restrooms...And, yes...the universal sign for Choking...However, I think the world is screaming out for just one more...how about

I just got back this past Monday from a 4-day weekend visiting Tim in Atlanta. Tom was my travel partner for this trip. It was also Tim's 28th birthday on Saturday so it was nice to be able to celebrate with him. We, of course, had many adventures -- both indoors and outdoors. I met some cool new people including Tim's roommate, Anthony, and their co-workers at The Weather Channel. I got to see

Pearl Jam recently recorded some music for Sessions at AOL. The set includes mostly tracks from their new album, with a couple older ones thrown in for good measure. There is lots to view at the site in addition to the sessions...there are photos, short video interviews and behind-the-scenes footage. All can be viewed at the AOL Sessions site.

Yeah, you know who he is. He's the former lead singer of The Verve. Does "Bittersweet Symphony" ring a bell? That was their big hit back in the mid-to-late 90s (they've since disbanded...yes, that's a word, Kel). I'll always remember that song from being in the movie, Cruel Intentions.So, what about Richard Ashcroft? Well, he was the support act for Coldplay in Philly last week (see my previous
