Mother's Day

7:40 AM Thu, May 08, 2008 |
Virginia

I won't see my mom for Mother's Day but she certainly deserves to have a special one this year. She's been through a lot. But watching how she is able to take on life's challenges and keep charging ahead motivates me and encourages me.

I don't have children, so I don't have the experience to know what it's like to worry, support, sacrifice and all the other remarkable things moms do. I do know that it wasn't until I moved away that my ...



Plastic Surgery

No, I'm not getting anything done. Not yet at least. I will tell you when that happens.
I have a story running Tuesday on the 10 PM show. I visited a plastic surgeon and took pictures of some pretty messed up looking celebrities. Priscilla Presley, Kenny Rogers (poor man) and Meg Ryan, to name a few.
I wanted to know where these people went wrong. Priscilla Presley looks like she was stung by bees with her new marshmellow look. >> Continue reading: Plastic Surgery



Hello sports fans...

9:44 AM Wed, Apr 30, 2008 |

This is one of those stories you've got to see to believe. If you've watched the PGA at all during the past 10 years...you know the trials of tribulations of John Daly. John is a gregarious, outspoken party animal who also happens to be one of the biggest hitters on the tour. I mean the guy can flat out smack a golf ball 300 yards, but it's generally his excessive partying that damaged his career. Now he's apparently designing golf co...



Weekend Update

Okay, so maybe I didn't go to the Van Halen concert this weekend. In fact, if I'd had my way, I would have been at Jimmy Buffet Thursday night. But ratings month started that day and me coming in at 3:30 a.m. after a night with the Parrot Heads would have not been smart or pretty.

I went to the March of Dimes March for Babies Saturday. I ran the 5k with Missouri Lt. Governor Peter Kinder. Well, we started off together. I heard he didn'...

23 years.

276 months.

And Diamond Dave summed it all up Saturday night with one line: "Better late than never!"
The version of Van Halen that took the stage Saturday night at S...



Ebay Bullies

So I was in the market for a new summer handbag and I am constantly seeing my coworker Diane with same as new Coach purses she bought off Ebay.
I decided to try it. I had never purchased anything before from the internet auction site. Just looked.
I was looking for a straw handbag with leather trim and found the perfect one. What I thought was perfect.

Check out the picture that was posted on Ebay.

EARTHQUAKE!

12:05 PM Fri, Apr 18, 2008 |

What a morning. I was sitting in the newsroom at 4:37 this morning when the 5.2 magnitude quake hit, and like many people, it was hard to believe at first. Our studios sit very near I-70 downtown, and it's not unusual for tractor-trailers to rumble through the depressed section and cause vibrations in our building. Here's a link to a video of our reactions, posted by our crew this morning on KMOV.COM
