February 28, 2013 I cannot believe I’m writing about Honey Boo Boo. Anyway, she along with Mama June are in hot water because they're helping a friend sell Girl Scout cookies. Girl Scouts of The USA are unhappy about this saying it’s unfair to other girl scouts trying to sell their cookies.
February 28, 2013 It’s the last day of February. Tomorrow we flip the calendar, a new month. This being March it looks like it will roll in as a tamer lion that in years past. The weather looks dreary over the next few days, but not too harsh. Tomorrow on March 1, DirecTV subscribers were going to lose WGME, Channel 13. Today there is good news, DirecTV and WGME along with the other Sinclair broadcast stations worked out an extension until other parts of a deal are hammered out.
February 27, 2013 It’s that time of year, the time when Tiger Cubs roll through the Moose studios on tours. One of the badges they need to move up is a communication badge. The kids need to tour a radio station, TV station or a newspaper. Today we had Pack 647 from Hallowell come through and see how it works.
February 27, 2013 Our saga over the passports continues. A few weeks ago, we attempted to get our passports, but it turned into a mess. We got what we thought we needed together, birth certificates, the passport applications and the official photos, but it’s just not that easy. Read more about that experience here.
February 26, 2013 I have been to a number of Sea Dogs' games and probably as many, if not more Portland Pirates' games. The one local pro or semi-pro team I have not gone and watched yet is the Maine Red Claws.
February 26, 2013 I know it pales in comparison to 9-11, but today is the 20-year anniversary of the World Trade Center bombings, which killed six and injured over 1000. I was living in Saint John taking broadcasting at the time and I remember seeing the pictures from CNN and the whole thing unfold in real time.
February 25, 2013 Starting this weekend is the World Baseball Classic. If you’re unfamiliar with it, it’s like the World Cup of soccer but with only a 10th of the fanfare. Okay scratch that, with maybe with the same amount of fanfare. The World Baseball Classic is an international baseball tournament that only rolls around every three or now I guess every four years.
February 25, 2013 Would a $1,000 a tax credit from Maine and up to a $7,500 federal tax credit encourage you to buy an electric plug-in car? A bill heading to the Maine Legislature’s Taxation Committee would do exactly that.
February 23, 2013 Wow, what a two night getaway. We wanted a fun little two night vacation for the kids so picked Jay Peak, Vermont Resort. They're primary draw is the skiing but they also have a rink, golf course and an indoor water park which is why we went.
February 20, 2013 Thanks to The Veayo Twins for joining us on-air to help promote the 'Teen Talent Show' coming up Sunday (Feb. 24) at Champions, Elm Plaza, Waterville to benefit and bring awareness to teen dating violence.
