It's a Bird... it's a Plane... its a Ballet Class Doing Soulja Boy?

That's right... the popular song and dance has been hitting all kinds of places across the nation, and I mean ALL KINDS.

While emailing back some viewers and friends on our WBTV Morning Show Facebook... I saw this video was pretty popular in the Charlotte Network.

It's a group of young kids in a ballet class doing the dance.

It's Time to Spice Up Your Life!

We all knew it was coming...the tour, the CD, and now...

the music video.

It's true - the Spice Girls are back.

Found their "first" new video on YouTube.

Ma'am...Ma'am... Ma'am - Look out for that *smack*

If you've ever run into a glass or screen door, you can relate to these people.

There's not window missing from this door, because it's not a door! See what happens when store windows are just TOO clean.

Why You Shouldn't Mess with the Cleaning Crew...

This is just funny, and should be a lesson to all!

Some door cleaners started getting upset with people leaving smudges on the door's glass, instead of just pushing on the handle.

So what do they do? The only sensible thing...remove the glass and record what happens!

Some of Our Favorites Halloween Pictures!

We asked, and you delivered! We got a ton of pictures from viewers with Halloween costumes, here are a few of our favorites. It wouldn't be Halloween, if we didn't show of a few pictures of our own ghouls and goblins. Enjoy!

Recent Trip to NC mountains

First off, this blog entry officially enters me into the wonderful world of blogging. I decided this blog would address my trip to Yancey County, NC last week... a truly relaxing week of soaking in the beauty of western North Carolina.

My wife (Kara) and I have always treasured the North Carolina mountains as a must stop several times a year. We had thought about a trip to the Outer Banks as Kara has never been there. This trip will continue to be a future goal of ours, now for 2008:) We had gone to the Blue Ridge Parkway last October and my gosh did we hit it right! The Fall foliage was sensational around every corner of the parkway. Views were breathtaking and we must have snapped several hundred digital pictures. We only made a weekend trip in 2006 and decided early this Summer to scrap the Outer Banks and rent a mountain cabin for a full week. Admittedly, in this horrible drought we're in I told Kara to lower her expectations of Fall color this October but we should still see some nice color. The projection could not have been more spot on!

We just caught the peak for the higher elevations but did note golden yellow was much more prevalent than red compared to last October. There were signs of drought stress but without a doubt, there were still many gorgeous pictures to be taken. I'll include a few we took... see for yourself! By week's end, higher elevations were losing their leaves and the best color was definitely working into the lower elevations of the mountains and foothills. If thinking about making a go of it this first weekend of November, you should still be in good shape. The parkway will likely be less of a show however.

Otherwise, the vacation featured a trip to Linville Caverns. This stop was one of the last for me to scratch off the list of must see sites in the central and northern mountains of North Carolina. They did not disappoint... certainly not as large as Luray Caverns in Virginia but two things made this stop standout from Luray. #1 the large trout swimming at the entrance of the cave (wish I could have cast a line-hah) and our tour guide turning the lights out so we could experience complete darkness in the back of the cave. Umm, that's quite the experience!!!

We enjoyed downtown Burnsville from the Hilltop Restaurant to the large number of stores featuring local art. We also checked internet frequently downtown where we could establish a wireless connection. There were important fantasy football scores to check on Monday, not too mention keeping up with weather charts during our vacation. It rained for a couple of days and I've never been so happy to see rain during my vacation!! The rest of the vacation featured fishing in the Cane River and relaxing around the cabin. Coming back to work, well I felt totally recharged and was happy to get back into my groove. No doubt though, this vacation was just what we needed and we'll be back!

FYI... pictures taken by my wife who does most of our family photography (obvious reasons). I'll paint a few of these in the months ahead with acrylic paint to canvas.

Ghosts and Goblins and Ghouls...Oh my!

The other day, we were talking about UFO's. Something was caught on tape in South Dakota - but what is it?



And did you know that 1/3 of American's believe in ghosts?

According to a poll by The Associated Press and Ipsos, that’s the same proportion who believe in unidentified flying objects! That's right UFOs...like the one in the above video????

48% believe in extrasensory perception, or ESP. But I'm guesing about half of you knew I was about to type that, right?

19% accept the existence of spells or witchcraft.

Nearly 1 in every 4 people say they have actually seen a ghost or believe they have been in one’s presence!

Now to put the numbers of ghost and UFO believers in perspective, it about the same as other AP polls, such as:
36% of people say they are baseball fans
37% say the U.S. made the right decision to invade Iraq
31% approve of the job President Bush is doing

What about you? Do you believe in ghosts?

Happy Halloween!

Hey Everyone!

Its Halloween and you know what that means! Its time for Suchan to pull out his Halloween costumes. The Invisible Man paid us a visit again this year, along with the Professor Suchanski. But wait...Chris drank some coffee and something strange happened to him! Great googly-moogly!

Watch the videos to see some of our Halloween fun!

Ode to Karl Rove...

Apparently President Bush REALLY misses Karl Rove and his tactics.

This is just funny...
