I was talking with a friend last night about Preakness and she remarked that she didn’t think “regular” people (like me) were able to go. She pictured a classy affair with big hats, navy sportcoats, boat shoes, and fancy drinks garnished with slices of fruit. I had to explain that while this part of the

Memorial Day Weekend is the traditional summer kickoff. Due to all the money I’m already set to spend this summer (thanks, Ireland), I decided to have a low key four days. I did a day trip to Gettysburg yesterday (which will be my next post), and am going to Marsh Creek for a few hours
Take a look at this music video. Besides being a phenomenal song, what jumps out at you? If you’re anything like me, you took one look at the bicycle/drinking contraption they’re riding around on and said to yourself, “I need that in my life.” My friend Kelsey and my brother introduced me to “One More

We don’t do this for Valentine’s Day (thank God), only dress in
“You’re going to wait for the buzzer to go off. Walk outside and get into the black Suburban. It’ll take you up the mountain to your destination.” Those were my instructions as I got ready to go bobsledding at the Olympic Sports Complex in Lake Placid, New York. If I hadn’t paid $65.00, in a very
For the last three years, my friends in Manayunk have hosted a University of Scranton Christmas party the Friday before Christmas break and every year for the last three years that same group takes the ride into Philly on Saturday to see the band Secret Service perform at Finnegan’s Wake.
