Imagine

It's October 9th!! I know that may not mean much to you, but it certainly means a lot to me. Today is John Lennon's 74th Birthday. Today is the day a legend was born. Such a beautiful soul and voice, but lost too soon. All he ever wanted in life was peace. So, take a moment…MORE

And They Called It Puppy Love

This weekend my boyfriend surprised me with a puppy! He said I didn't need to be missing out on the happiness of a dog and she will keep me company when no one is around. It's the sweetest little dog. An 8 month old Chihuahua. Her name is Shenzi Marie Predatora Veldetta Jacqulina Hyena. I…MORE

Upper Echelon

The Mountain West Conference is already looking like a long shot to make the top echelon bowl game for the group of fiver non-power conferences. The league is sorely lacking for signature wins this season. Boise State is 3-1 with their lone loss coming to tenth ranked Ole Miss. They are 3-1 on the season…MORE

It’s Not Always Bad To Be A Hermit

As many people know I have some weird pets. I moved earlier this year to a new house and we couldn't have dogs. And cats aren't allowed because I'm allergic. But I was able to keep my two buddies, Flash and Sandy Peaches. They are both hermit crabs. Most people who meet them are scared…MORE

Inked Up

Today is the big day. I will be meeting with my tattoo artist to have my very 1st tattoo drawn up. As everyone knows, I am a huge John Lennon fan and I have been for years. So, in honor of my idol and legendary singer I will be getting a tattoo with his name…MORE

Deja Vu All Over Again

Several years ago, I had an unusual conversation with a friend of mine.  The friend lives in Boise, as I do, but I didn't meet him until a couple of years after I was out of college.  I went to college at Boise State, but my friend moved to Boise for a business opportunity a…MORE

BOO!

Halloween is about 2 months away, but I have found out the hard way that if you are going to get the perfect costume you need to buy early. So, that's exactly what I did. My costume should arrive in a few weeks. Unfortunately, I can't tell you what it is, because everyone is surprising each…MORE

If It’s News To You……

Here's a question I've been asked many, many times:  "How do you decide what qualifies as news and what doesn't?"  I do answer the question, but I don't give an answer you'd find in any book about journalism.  I tell people, "News to me is anything I didn't previously know." If you're telling me that…MORE

The Lion Sleeps Tonight

The best thing happened to me over the weekend. I held a lion. Yes, a real life lion. Of course, it was just a cub but it was still a lion. My boyfriend and his friend went to the Western Idaho Fair with me. We decided to walk around for a bit and get some…MORE

Good Cop/Bad Cop?

From Idaho, to Missouri, to California, to Alabama, and in all states, there seems to be an ever growing "anti-cop" sentiment growing. I've heard prople judging Boise police for actions from officers in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina, to, of course, dog shootings. Any missteps, law violations, or outright laziness should be vetted thoroughly by…MORE
